The food was good, but their new covid guidance leaves a lot to be desired. The menu they pass round is grubby and the one way system only works till you want sauce then you have to get it yourself and everyone presses the same dispenser.
The food is excellent, the tea is a Literal PINT and they have a vibrant colour scheme.
Really nice. Great atmosphere great cafe food. It is a cafe. Not a restaurant. Free wiki, food, and a great coffee. What more can you want.
Initially it seems uninviting but in reality as soon as you enter you immediately understand the philosophy: great food at a reasonable price. Furthermore the kitchen is always open
At the foot of snowdon, nestled in the village of llanberis is a landmark. For decades pete's had provided good food at a low price. Today it has everything from a reading room, map room, first class bathroom and showers, bunkhouse...
And still has the best meals at the best prices.
Regardless of why you are visiting snowdonia, you should definitely drop in.
Super place. It is great value for money and the place to go before or after you explore the area.
I had the big Vegan breakfast. It filled a hole. Coffee was a miss.
Iconic local cafe serving a great selection of no nonsense food & drink. The best.
Fantastic cafe: endless menu, big portions, friendly staff, all at ridiculous prices. Deserves its reputation!
Huge breakfast available :) great after a hard climb
Great food at a great price. Its a must after a long day in the quarry climbing
Great relaxed feel, friendly and attentive staff, very down to earth and approachable place. The food was excellent, I'd have given it five stars if it had been a bit warmer inside, I had to get a hot drink just to warm myself up! Food prices were on the more expensive side of average too which stays my hand on the five star recommendation. Other than that, brilliant place.
The outside might not attract you in but the food and service is great
10/10 would eat here again, after swimming in a lake during rubbish weather
Always a smile from the staff, lovely people in a lovely place.
Cheap food served quicky although
very busy, they only offer fried eggs unable to have poached, apart from that ok food
A great breakfast in Llanberis after a wild camp at Dinorwic quarry.
Propper hearty food . ...Always a must if you've been walking the mountains
Nice and simple food - good portion sizes at good prices. Great for a post-hike snack or for some carb-loading beforehand
Was disappointed! Heard great things but found the service to be very slow and people being served out of order and the food was nothing special - not worth complaining about but somewhat lacking. And it wasn't that busy!
Not as good as it used to be. Mugs of tea seem smaller as do the portions.
Still a fantastic venue for dropping in after the mountains and a must visit in Llanberis because of the history all over the walls.
Love this place, nice atmosphere, big food and very reasonable prices.
Great menu, plenty of choice for kids and adults. Nice relaxed atmosphere and helpful staff. Prices very reasonable too.
Another full belly. Large breakfast with chips, for an evening meal. No silly time limits on meals. If it's on the menu, it's available. And great quality food at that. Great atmosphere, no frills. Great value for money.
Foods nice, fairly basic but a generally nice breakfast.
Had breakfast there with a friend two days running. One day I had porridge with banana, the other I had muesli. Both times I had a large mug of tea. The cost was around 5.00. My friend had a round of toast which was 60p. Reasonable value for money. They serve all types of breakfasts as well as other meals.
This place is always busy, but don't let that put you off. I make sure I visit EVERY time I come to Snowdonia.
Food took ridiculously long. By the time my burger came, the person I came with had already finished eating.
Please be aware during that the pandemic, it will take some times to get food, and maybe longer for a place to sit, this is 100% fine as I m comfortable being able to eat there knowing they ensure both customers and staff are safe as possible.
Really enjoyed the vegan breakfast, nice to have a proper greasy spoon to start the day!
It's not a five star restaurant it's a cafe and if you go in expecting it to be a cafe you'll be impressed. The food is amazing and there's plenty of it. You won't go hungry. It has great facilities including a map room and some sofas etc. Upstairs and clean toilets that are like individual mini bathrooms.
There's plenty of parking near by on the main road through Llanberis at Lake Side. The views there are incredible and its literally seconds walk away from petes eats. Just look for the big dagger/sword thing for the parking.
Would definitely recommend for a after hike or swim adventure! Even sells lager for those who feel the need to be more adventurous after a nice walk.
Definitely recommend a visit if your passing through.
Not sure what's be become of the "old" Pete's but this last visit (May 2019) confirms all isn't what it used to be. Not for the first time this year that so much of the menu just wasn't available and staff didn't seem bothered. This time food took 40 mins to arrive with no explanation given, and the "meal" was just chips - not a problem if that's what you want, but what happened to all the usual extras with a burger (coleslaw, salad)? Very saddened by the current situation at this iconic venue for climbers/walkers/locals.
Basic food served at a very reasonable price in clean and welcoming surroundings. Don't try climbing Snowdon until you have visited this place!
Whether it's an early Am breakfast or a snack before home. This place is a shining beacon of food tastyness. I don't visit snowdonia without going to petes.
Seriously, what a place! Cracking food! Perfect for any outdoorsy person, perfect for any, well, hungry person!!! Class!
Cheap honest meal. It doesn't pretend to be something that it's not. Food was basic but ok. It is a cafe with a bright and basic decor. Toilets were clean.The place had a nice buzz when we came in. Some people were playing chess, some were reading.
Very tasty food and clean toilets. We didn't wait too long for our food and I had a lovely pint of tea! Staff are excellent here!
A must in any real walker's bucket list. If you haven't been, then you are missing out on one of life's must dos
Large portions, plenty on the menu, inexpensive and a great place to eat after hiking. Nice atmosphere to the place.
Amazing value for food plus tastes amazing. If you're into climbing or walking, this place is a must!
The first time I visited petes eats was about 20years ago, ever since I was always sure to go back anytime I was in the area. I was very excited about coming back this summer on holiday, on our first day we made a point of heading to petes, we were a little disappointed, the portion sizes and standard of food served was not what it used to be, the cafe was also considerably less busy than it used to be (you used to have to queue just to get in the door!). Being avid fans of the place we came back on another five occasions just in case we had hit an off day, with much regret I can say we will no longer be excited about going back. Petes eats has changed and frustratingly not for the better. Bring back the old Petes eats!!
Owl, owl, owl
Pleasant welcome and great efforts of language on the part of the staff, it's very nice of them
... and the dishes: very good
In short, you have to go !!!
Brilliant menu and reasonably priced but always busy !
Very popular place welcoming friendly and busy caffe
Good food after a full on weekend. Lovely staff, gave me a free orange juice when I knocked mine over. Thank you
A Llanberis institution. No visit to the town is complete without at least on breakfast here
Proper greasy spoon cafe-does what it says on the tin. Big portions for hungry walkers, served quickly and hot.
Atmospheric climbers cafe falls victim to it's popularity. Great choice of food and plenty of seats. But it can get really busy. Also beer is not lager so please don't keep it in the fridge
Nice location, good staff however the breakfast wasn't up to much in that the ingredients seemed cheap.
Very average cafe, slow service, a bit too relaxed atmosphere and staff. Won't be going again.
The girls are working so hard during the summer to get the food done as soon as possible and keep it together around picky costumers so they have my respect for that , hats off. The food is great and the place is nice and clean , I will make a note to myself , to bring the girls a gift next time I visit !
A very well-known place that changes character depending on the time of year.
Legendary cafe, we visit every time we stay in North Wales. Loads of choice, nothing fancy, big portions well cooked. May it never close!
Proper good fry up food with an option for pint sized coffee/tea. Just what you need after a day hiking the mountain!
Can't here your self think! Asked for a cappuccino. Got hot strong coffee back .they can't tell the difference between cappuccino or coffee. The price i paid expecting 2 or more peces of toast . They had no sweeteners.. Didn't like the way they put the toast under the egg .
Wonderful, hearty meals in large portions served by gracious and accommodating staff!
Slow slow service, we were waiting over an hour, and the food was disappointing
Wow!
Best chips ever!
Had to travel 5h from south coast to see Snowdon but found something better.
Pete's cafe!
Really good service, very clean toilets even though the place is busy, and friendly staff. The veggie English breakfast was well made and a fillingly good portion to hike on.
