Description

Nestled in Bala, this restaurant presents a mixed dining experience. While the ambiance is elegant and enticing, the service can be hit or miss, with reports of inexperienced staff and long wait times. Diners have praised the quality of the pizza and pasta, though some have found portions disappointingly small for the price. The establishment has its charm, bolstered by friendly interactions with the chef and a relaxed atmosphere. Although certain aspects, like cleanliness and the need for better staff training, need attention, many patrons recommend takeout for a more reliable meal. Overall, it’s a place with potential worth exploring.

We walked off the street into this restaurant. Staff were great and very attentive. Food was great and nice size portions. Was reasonably priced, drinks a little dear. Would come here again!

Amazing food, we had pizza and pasta. Amazing quality and taste. The peroni on draught was beautiful. Good to see young staff being given the opportunities they deserve. We enjoyed the relaxed covid rules, as a family we believe they are ridiculous and not needed, so it was nice to have a taste of our former life. Cash only is not problem at all as there’s a cash point right outside the door. Highly recommend this place.

We would not return here. Poor service waitresses very slow, not welcoming, generally completely graceless. Food was mostly fine garlic mushrooms very tasty, lasagne was good. But desserts let it down, ice cream seemed to have been melted and refrozen judging by ice crystals and something seriously wrong with the base of the summer fruit crumble, which tasted and smelled like vomit. Staff seemed quite uninterested and no apology though they did (at my request) remove it from the bill. There are much better places to eat in Bala.

Stayed near Bala for a weeks holiday with our two children and had an amazing time in Wales. We are in Bala most nights at various places. Y CWRT was our last evening meal and tbh a little disappointed compared to previous places we frequented, No wine list we had to order from our waiters limited knowledge of the wines available and were charged £20 for a Pinot Grigio which was much cheaper elsewhere! But couldn’t check this. Our bill came to £80 plus and we’re told at payment we couldn’t pay by card CASH ONLY this is the norm apparently.Food was reasonable 2 pizzas a Tuna Salad and a T Bone Steak which was well done rather than medium All in all ok just disappointing having eaten next door at Y Cyfnod Cafe and Bistro which was cheaper nicer and much more friendlier
