Caffi Glas — Restaurant in Penrhyndeudraeth

Discovered this little café tucked away behind an archway in a corner of the village while on a very enjoyable day trip. The outside tables, in a lovely setting overlooking the piazza, were very busy, so I had my lunch inside. The interior of the café is small, no frills but clean and comfortable, with clean toilets at the back. Very pleasant and hardworking young staff. You pay for your meal at the bar when ordering, and it is brought to your table. I found the service very quick. The menu offered a good selection of homemade Italian dishes including pasta, pizzas and platters, plus a children's menu. Ordered a salad with grilled chicken, bacon, mixed leaves, cherry tomatoes, parmesan cheese and croutons in a tangy dressing, with some bread and butter as an extra. The food was good quality and well presented, very fresh salad ingredients and big portions. There's a wide choice of wines, beer, cider and soft drinks, but oddly they were not serving coffee or tea even though they were on the menu. Overall a satisfying lunch, but at £20.90 for the meal and a cider, it...

Asked to wait while they cleaned the table, left waiting even after it was cleaned while staff seemed to be having words with each other. Finally got seated. Staff disappeared came back disappeared sorted out the people waiting to sit down we were still waiting for our order to be taken, 10 minutes or more after we got our table a member of staff took the order from the last people yo be given a table then no staff again and as we got up to leave a member of staff saw us getting up to leave and turned around and went back inside. Bumped into staff who sat us at the table and asked why he served the last people to be seated 10 minutes after us and he didn't respond. Went to see the manager who asked which staff and got what really felt like a basic apology of someone not interested. Spoilt the last part of our afternoon and if I go back again I would not go back...

Very disorganised chaos . Found a seat outside but then had to go into anther part of the restaurant to order the food . So no table service ! Just as well tbh as i think the eldest youngster on duty was probably 18. There was 1 mature waitress on duty who took my order and bought the food as stated around 30 minutes later . She was very efficient. This place could be an absolute goldmine . The chicken goujons were in fact cheap nuggets and the pizza Diavola was the smallest pizza I have ever seen for £15 . My Italian wife just laughed and nearly fell off her chair . £62 for mediocre food is not good here guys and 10% added service charge is a cheap shot at subsidising wages...
