Enjoy delicious breakfasts at our B&B in Eryri | Snowdonia, North Wales
Breakfast is a very important part of your stay with us - you’re on holiday!
Served in the dining room of our Victorian home, we create a relaxed, friendly atmosphere in which to start your day here in North Wales.
Our dining room
If you’re hoping to have an earlier start - maybe you want to climb up Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) first thing - don’t worry!
Just let us know your plans in advance or on arrival and we will discuss options with you - for instance we can provide a takeaway breakfast.
“We are still talking about the breakfasts!!!”
Our breakfast menu
Enjoy a traditional cooked breakfast
Offering you the choice of local sausage and bacon, free-range Welsh eggs, slow-roasted tomatoes, sautéed mushrooms and baked beans, our cooked breakfast will set you up for the day.
We can also prepare a similar vegetarian or vegan cooked breakfast with plant-based sausages.
Our offering is technically not a ‘traditional Welsh breakfast’ as that would normally include the delicacy ‘laverbread’ which is edible seaweed. This is obviously an acquired taste, hence we choose not to serve it!
Maybe try our daily breakfast special?
This is where the fun begins…!
We also offer a ‘daily special’ if you fancy something else for breakfast - it gives you the chance to try a different dish each morning when you stay with us, if you wish!
The daily special rotates and changes every day (often between savoury and sweet) and it is always vegetarian.
We can also usually adapt it or create something equally tasty for other alternative diets such as vegan / plant-based, dairy / lactose free and coeliac / gluten-free.
The breakfast specials we regularly prepare and take inspiration from include:
omelettes
French toast
American-style pancakes
sweetcorn fritters
potato and onion hash
frittatas
miso-glazed mushrooms on toast with ‘overnight’ soy eggs
kimchi pancakes
freshly made waffles with different toppings
shakshuka
Turkish eggs
slow-roasted tomatoes on toast with ricotta
Japanese-style ‘okonomiyaki pancake’
avocado on toast with a poached egg
Welsh rarebit
Indian-style ‘masala’ toast
potato röstis
… to name but a few, and we’re always looking to create other new and unique breakfast dishes for our guests.
TIP - if there is a daily special above you would particularly like to try then just drop a hint when you stay with us - it usually works!
Or something else for breakfast?
Equally we are always happy to prepare you something lighter or simpler for breakfast such as scrambled eggs on toast, a warming bowl of porridge with honey, or why not a classic bacon sandwich.
To round things off we always have fresh fruit, juices, local Welsh yogurts, homemade jams and preserves, toast, and cereals also available.
Special diets and requests
Special diets and requests for vegetarian, vegan / plant-based, halal, coeliac / gluten-free / wheat-free and dairy / lactose-free breakfasts are of course catered for.
We always have plant-based milks available and some of our daily specials are vegan by choice anyway - for instance our pancakes are made with almond milk as it by far works the best!
Please advise us in advance where possible though so we can ensure we have suitable ingredients, adapt our offerings and create delicious dishes when you stay with us.
“My gluten free diet could not have been better catered for too (I even got my own biscuits!)
On that note, excellent breakfast. The ingredients of which are locally sourced, which I love. ”
Locally sourced produce
Being passionate about food - you will see our rather large cookbook collection in the snug! - we pride ourselves on finding and cooking the freshest and best locally sourced Welsh produce for our breakfasts.
As part of this we support the best independent producers and suppliers Eryri | Snowdonia and Wales has to offer, who provide us with top quality products and ingredients.
We have the luxury of a village butchers in Trefriw - affectionately known locally as ‘Maralyn’s’ - which is right opposite our bed and breakfast.
Superb handmade pork sausages along with bacon and other delicious products come from them.
It is also justifiably famous in North Wales for the sausage rolls and pies that are made on the premises - definitely try them when you stay!
We also source the following local and ethical products:
Expertly roasted coffee from the coffee roasters Heartland Coffi in Llandudno on the North Wales coast
A selection of Fairtrade and herbal teas
The freshest free-range Welsh eggs from Ochr Cefyn Isa near Betws-y-Coed - delivered to us every week
Delicious Welsh yoghurts from Llaeth Y Llan dairy in Denbigh, North Wales
Bread for toast and sandwiches and biscuits in rooms are homemade by Jasmine!
Jams and preserves are also homemade - often with produce from the garden - or made for us locally
