Miracle Café Bangor — Restaurant in Wales

It's an intriguing and intrinsic part of Miracle Café, that there are usually more staff members fooling behind and around the bar than there are customers. Rumour has it that the bulky dude who is harassing sit-down customers, seniors and gullible domestic tourists who are too awkward to refuse, with spiritual therapies is actually Bangor's favourite local madman à la Dostoyevsky. Be that as it may, he never fails to impress. The hideously faded quarter-sleeve tattoos that he probably got on a whim, the greasy beard and the baseball hat he bought from the children's charity shop opposite the café, are a testament of Christianity's longstanding belief that we should always try to help and instruct the poor and needy. “Give to the one who asks you," the Bible says, "and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you” (Matthew 5:42). The astute customer, of course, won't fail to notice that his healing practices stand in sharp contrast with the café's musical repertoire: an endless, repetitive, cherry-picked playlist extolling the greatness of our good old buddy Jesus. What's more is that we are told that every item on the menu is a taste of heaven. A cheery yet somber sign on the back wall exhorts us to 'expect a miracle'. The miracle, of course, would be getting our...

We must have walked past this so many times ! Today in a desperate search for somewhere decent to eat we popped in. The staff are incredibly helpful and nothing is too much trouble. Homemade cakes and scones on the counter is always a good start . We ordered the American breakfast and the house burger whilst my granddaughter (21)months had chicken nuggets. The menu is comprehensive and a pleasant escape from the norm ! Food arrived in a timely fashion and was well presented. It really tasted as good as it looked. Proper homemade chunky chips with the burger and nuggets . The nuggets were also very good and we discovered taste even better dipped in maple syrup. What a gem of a place. We both did a little happy dance ! We shared a scone with jam and clotted cream for pudding. Scone was a little overdone for our taste but that's just down to personal preference. Ambience was also...

Really lovely place however won’t be visiting again due to staff incompetence. We ordered some salsa, guac and cheese chips and specified 3 times that we wanted the vegan option of this. Waited 45 minutes for it to come despite the cafe being empty except us and another 2 people who already had their food. When it arrived it was very obviously dairy cheese which I can’t eat, the staff seemed nonplussed and just asked “well do you still want it?” Didn’t bother to offer to remake it with vegan cheese and we had to ask for it to be taken off the bill. The girl at the till apologised however the one who took our order just stood there scrolling through her phone. I think we just caught them on a bad day looking at other reviews, but super disappointed given the wait when we could have gone somewhere else that would have...
