About

A converted boathouse café on the Beaumaris waterfront perched right above the tidal foreshore, with floor-to-ceiling windows looking across the Menai Strait to Caernarfon and the Snowdonia peaks. Breakfasts and light lunches use local eggs, bacon from nearby farms, and bread baked that morning — honest café food in one of the best-positioned rooms on the island. Walk in, find a window seat, and stay longer than you planned.
