Wavecrest Cafe in Isle of Anglesey

We called in for lunch at this lovely spot. The food is great especially the famous scones and the setting is really nice just up from the beach with plenty of outdoor seating. The staff were friendly and welcoming and especially made my toddler feel welcome. I’d definitely recommend calling in

The most fabulous cheese and onion pie with a salad as good as any London restaurant. Perfect location and was able to take my two doggies. Will definitely return next year.

Fabulous food and service been coming here for years. Cream tea like no other. Great view and on coastal path, public car park and toilets available too.

We love this place. I come with friends & not once has anyone not enjoyed their food. Service is excellent. Staff are friendly & helpful. The view is obviously amazing but there are indoor tables for cold days too. We will definitely come back. Oh & you have to have one of their scones !!! Simply amazing

This is a great cafe in a fantastic location at Church Bay. I've been twice recently and the food has been excellent both times - freshly prepared and very tasty. My partner is coeliac and there is a limited, but good choice of GF options (including more than one cake!!). The scones are lovely (though I'm not keen on cream so I had one with butter and jam), as are all the cakes we've tried. Staff are very friendly and helpful. All in all an excellent place for lunch or a snack/cake, it's just a shame they close soon for the winter!

This is very much your traditional cafe by the sea. Great location with walking paths directly behind the cafe which we took advantage of after stuffing our faces. I had the generous strawberry scone and my friend had the pineapple cake with ice cream. Both enjoyed very much.

We stumbled on this cafe while on a drive around Anglesea, what a gem of a place with such a cool vibe. The staff were all extremely friendly and welcoming, the owner was tending to his amazing flower baskets and super chatty, telling us all about his place and the area. My hubby already had his eye on the scones that he had seen someone else order. Unfortunately, he was too late, they had all been sold. While ordering for the rest of our family, a member of staff rushed out and said she would make him one. He was so chuffed. It was a great pit stop, we all had cake (home made and mashousive),ice cream, beer and soft drinks. We stayed a while chatting to other customers sitting outside as we had our dog with us. They closed up shop, but not before giving my children more ice cream on the house. Such a refreshing, friendly place to stop for a bite to eat, a drink and enjoy the environment. Go now before everyone else discovers it!

Lovely lunch. Not a huge choice on lunch menu but quality of food was great. We had baguettes with prawns which tasted really fresh. We also had one of the legendary strawberry scones- they are enormous and we shared one. Delicious! We sat in the garden. Really nice cafe in the lovely area of church’s bay. Dogs are allowed outside.

Beautiful cakes and fabulous mugs of tea. This place is special - a warm and friendly atmosphere that has made me recommend to friends and vow to come back for a hot meal very soon. All the dinners that wafted past whilst we sat outside in the sunshine looked delicious. Apparently the chef / owner grates fresh coconut into the curry - a dedicated and amazing woman by all accounts. Thank you 🙏

The Wavecrest is an absolute must visit for anybody spending time on Anglesey. The menu has so much choice, is very reasonably priced and completely delicious. The staff are attentive and friendly and everything is made fresh and fast. I had the lentil and chickpea curry which was so tasty and a really generous portion too. The baguettes are also gorgeous and go great with a portion of cheesy chips! Big thanks to all the staff.

Just lovely! Had coffee/hot chocolate & their legendary scones after a coastal walk. Highly recommend & we’ll be back when we’re next in Angelsey. Such friendly owners.

We visited for lunch, and I found the prawn baguette of my dreams! Really great cappuccino too! Lunch thoroughly enjoyed by the whole family.

We recently had lunch at the Wavecrest Cafe. It was fabulous. We had a prawn & salmon baquet. Had to have a giant scone aswell. The food and service was excellent. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend a visit.

Called for lunch and well worth the winding lane drive. I would recommend doing some of the coast path on a nice weather day. The service and food we had today was great. Staff very friendly and efficient. The beef brisket was amazing. The scones are great too. Well done wavecrest we will be back.

Lovely cafe serving good home cooked food. Nice service, accepts dogs outside and in the garden area. The scones looked fantastic.

What a stunning spot right next to the lovely beach. Lovely place, lots of outside seating in a pretty garden, the cakes looked amazing but we had the cheese and onion pie which was wonderful. Lovely staff, smashing location and fabulous cafe food. A must...

Church Bay alone is truly fantastic and offers breathtaking views so to have your cafe business alongside here is already a good start. Wavecrest clearly operate from the customers eye. By that I mean presentation is a paramount. Every window, nook and cranny outside is...

Great food. Had the cheese and onion pie and the fish pie. Good choice of bottled local ales. Service good. Staff friendly. Definitely worth a visit

Wow! Although the cafe was very busy the staff and service was excellent. The fish pie was amazing and the accompanying salad was the best I have ever had. Certainly worth a visit. Highly recommended.

Sensational spot, such a lovely cafe, great menu and great team. We had a lovely lunch and will definitely be back

Lovely little cafe. Food was delicious and worthe the money. Staff was really friendly even gave my dog Lulu a dog biscuit and a fuss

We stopped here for an impromptu lunch. Delicious fresh baps with a variety of fillings and attractive garnish. Friendly staff and it was just really pleasant sitting at our table soaking up the atmosphere of lovely Porth Swtan. Thank you.

Friendly helpful staff and Scones to die for! In fact everything looked delicious. Sat outside in the sun promptly served with a pot of tea with china cups and saucers. Perfect

Such a lovely place! Really nice gardens and efficient service AND the best gluten free scone I have ever tasted! Highly recommend .

This cafe reflects all that makes Anglesey so special - an amazing location, great food and a warm welcome every time. Went last weekend for lunch and it was as good as ever - the queue was well worth it! Speaking of the queue, the...

Just coming to the end of another week here in Church Bay. What a marvellous place it is, what fantastic weather, what lovely people, what fun we've all had! Lunch, brunch and/or afternoon tea at the Wavecrest every day, no wonder I'm still the size...

The good :The location, the friendly smiling helpful staff and of course the delicious scones . The bad :The cups of tea are awful .And they do not come cheap. The water tasted metallic-the sign that water is left in a geezer to just boil...

Fabulous location loads of tables inside and out. Best scones ever staff happy and friendly give it a go. You won't be disappointed.

My friend and I had a scone and a drink at about 3 pm. The cream had a bit of a tang and I wasn’t certain it was ok so we didn’t eat much of it. We’ve both bee n quite Ill since and our...

The cheese and onion pie is very tasty, a lovely fresh salad accompanies it. First time Ive had blurberties in a salad, wow! My partner had the ham salad which was just as good. Hope next time to try the crab.

Perfect. Super food, attentive staff and a wonderful location. So glad we found it open as we have wanted to eat there on other visits to the island. We will definitely be back soon. Highly recommended.

Went to the Wavecrest for lunch, it was really busy but no problems with ordering, my partner ordered the cheese and onion pie and I had a ham salad bap and two drinks. As I was paying the owner explained there would be a delay...

This place is very cute, all the staff are super friendly and the food was fresh, tasty and colourful. The salsd looked beautiful with all fruits . We will definitely return. No complaints at all from our entire group, we left with full tummies and...

My parents and I visited for lunch, they had the salmon and prawn bagettes, I had a pulled pork sandwich, and they were all really good. The staff were lovely, there was interesting quirky music playing, and the loo was clean and well designed. We’ll...

wonderful food / great service - shame its not open as a restaurant in the evenings - could be a real winner as Lobster Pot is no competition

Visited this cafe, with plenty of seating outing as well as in, on the way to Church Bay for the afternoon. Tables on the grass outside the cafe giving an excellent view out to sea. Excellent range on the menu, mainly snacks and cakes. Maybe...

What an addition to what is a lovely beach bay; we had coffee first during the day then returned and had ice cream, smoothies and tea. Quite a big menu, the place is always busy so that says something about how good they are. Staff...

I had the pleasure to stop by this charming beachside cafe again after many years. The friendly hardworking staff were a delight as always and the homemade food so so tasty. The famous strawberry scones have indeed gotten even bigger and better! A must try,...

We visited this cafe three times in a week and had a variety of food from salads to cake and, on the final day, massive scones with cream and strawberries. The location is right next to a lovely little beach and there is a garden...

We happened to stumble across this absolute gem! A gorgeous menu, location, food incredible and super friendly staff. Perfect! ❤️

Excellent cafe! We had drinks, ice creams and the most amazing giant strawberry scone to take away. All the cakes and food looked home made. Great cafe!

A real gem of a café. Delicious food cooked on the premises at a reasonable price. More than you average seaside cafe.

Lovely café, in lovely surroundings, excellent selection of cakes which were both fresh and tasted delicious.

Lovely cafe right by the beach, really friendly staff, very busy when I was there but the hot food looked amazing. We stopped as part of a walk on the coast path and I was really pleased they sold alcohol free Brewdog Punk AF. And...

The owner of the cafe was assisting us with our order. The food and service were tremendous! We stopped for lunch on a day out in Anglesey. There is outside seating for the sea air and views as well. It was very full when we...

This cafe was outstanding. Food great and reasonably priced. Service was friendly, they made you feel at home. I recommend the fish pie. Didn't have room for a strawberry scone,so had to take one away to eat later. Not dog friendly though, but plenty of...

A brilliant place for a coffee or lunch...very friendly and excellent quality and service..a score of 10 out of 10 is not enough...words are not enough to say how superb the wavecrest is

What a nice place to go staff so friendly . Spotlessly clean . We had a ham & Cheese and onion baquette And then came the best bit The Scones Omg they were amazing light .tasty and loads of jam .cream and strawberries . Must...

We have visited here today for lunch and their famous scone. Nothing was too much very accommodating. The place was clean. The food was amazing. Freshly made and tasty. Sorry there is no picture of the scone because it was so moist and tasty with...

Lovely food, freshly prepared and served hot. The staff were friendly and the café had a lovely atmosphere. Well worth the trip across Anglesey. Would thoroughly recommend and will visit again when in the area.

Was here last weekend with friends and the whole meal was disappointing. The food was re-heated and looked thrown on the plate. The cheese pie was greasy and the scones were dry I past the kitchen it was no wonder. Looked a disaster in there!...

We took a day trip out to Wales and came across this gem. The food was out of this world! Staff were friendly and accommodating and the location is spot on. A little tip….highly recommend the cheese and onion pie . Hope to visit again...

We camped nearby for the Bank Holiday weekend, so we popped in for a drink and decided to try the cakes as they looked delicious...we were not disappointed. The staff were very friendly & welcoming. We returned again over the weekend and the staff gave...

We went for our first trip to Church Bay and had lunch. Had to wait a while but considering how busy they were it was hardly surprising and were not disappointed. I had the prawn salad platter probably the best and varied salad I've ever...

Visited on a Sunday for lunch amazing, staff fantastic, baguettes out of this world and scones amazing definitely a true gem.

Dropped in for a late lunch following a walk along the coastal path, warm welcome, good choice of food and cakes, albeit we passed on the cakes. The pulled pork was excellent as were the chips, walked past a couple of hours after the cafe...

I have been visiting church bay and here for aslong as I can remember. The scones are the biggest I’ve ever known but certainly don’t lose quality as you do with some gimmicky large foods. My partner agreed the scones were amazing and prove it’s...

Only came for lunch but was excellent. Totally recommend the platters - we had salmon and prawn with a delightful salad And as for the cream scones …… superb

Food is homemade and great. However, how a place like this can “run out”of chips is beyond me. Great location, friendly staff but not geared up for busy periods. Food comes out in dribs and drabs and we had to ask a couple of times...

We went here on a whistle stop tour of Anglesey. My brother went here and raved about it. We arrived and was greeted by friendly staff and great value food, what I mean by great value is, yes a little pricey but well worth it...

We had a wonderful lunch here sat out in the sun. The pork special being a great sandwich to start with. Move on with the classic strawberry scone and coffee to follow. Great service nice people. Many thanks

We`ve been coming here for years & have never been disapointed. Beautiful location, dog friendly. I`m so glad that they have survived covid. The tea garden has always been a favoutite spot for us, as we have always taken our dogs walking with us Finn...

Lovely cafe, wonderful staff. The scone is amazing. Went back a week later, cafe closed but cake van was also awesome! Looking forward to visiting in quieter times!

We had lunch here and it was delicious as were the scones! It’s a little pricey but worth it. It’s a few minutes walk down to a nice stoney beach. The staff are extremely friendly and nice - I was stung by a wasp and...

This is a super place for lunch or a cake. First off, the lady serving is cheerful and friendly which sets you on the right track straight away. The sandwiches and rolls were lovely - i had prawns and you can sometimes find you end...

Superb cafe! These guys should open more places across the island as there are no other quality cafe’s on Anglesey! Great welcome and great food and drink here, thank you to the whole team for looking after us.

From the minute the gent took my order i knew this was an excellent choice of food venue. The polite chap took my order and explained the next steps. Plenty of seating and extra was added when more people arrived. The food was lush and...

My family and I visited Wavecrest a couple of times on our Anglesey stay and enjoyed both visits. The menu is varied and the portions you receive are large and the food is tasty as well. The garden is a nice to place to sit...

Amazing location & good choices but I thought it a shame that both ladies weren't serving to reduce the queue. The outdoor tables had amazing views though.

Fabulous setting excellent fish pie and salad. Can recommend the hot chocolate fudge cake. Will definitely return.

A lovely setting overlooking Church Bay. Spoiled by the beautiful sunshine and great views - good value and tasty food and a fabulous Fish Pie - excellent service, with a smile, on a very busy day's service. Would definitely recommend, thank you

Went on. Sunny afternoon and the adjacent car park and road full of cars showed how busy it was. With Covid restrictions the seating was spread around the garden and you gave your order at a window into the cafe once you reached the front...

My wife and I had lunch there today. We both had the cheese pie platter, which came with chips and an excellent salad. Sat in the sun, nice views, great food.

Visited last Sunday, wonderful weather and location, although there was a long queue at opening time (12pm) it was worth the wait. My partner ordered a delicious Fish Pie and I had a plain scone (a miracle, somewhere that caters for someone who dislikes fruit...

What is there not to like about the Wavercrest Cafe? Service with a smile, off the scale home cooked delights which will set your taste buds on fire. 27th Sep 2019 with my dear sister and served by Ruth Jennings my lovely niece. Menu recommend: The entire menu.

Lovely food. Exceptional customer service. Lovely food. Let us eat inside. Covid compliment. No toilets available on site, but walkable to the public toilets. Polite staff.

We spent a socially distanced family afternoon on the beach with six adults and 5 children between 2 and 12 years old. We were lucky to find the cafe still open when we left the beach as it was a few minutes before 5. The cafe had set up a serving window and there was a one-way queuing system set up outside. Fortunately, the large picnic garden opposite allowed for us to find tables where we could spread out.Parking had been difficult when we arrived at Church Bay and the cafe had been busy all afternoon. It was with great delight that we were greeted by such friendly and enthusiastic staff at such a late hour in what must have been quite a long shift.The young man serving was really patient as the order was changed several times as the children changed their minds on what they wanted. They must have a huge kitchen store in the cafe because they were still able to muster up several portions of chips, hot chocolates, the largest and freshest cream scones we've ever come across and a variety of other hot drinks and snacks. The Cafe is tucked out of the way, so I can't imagine receiving fresh food orders during the Covid Pandemic is easy for them.We had expected to have been told they were closing as we left the beach in our large group but our experience of the great staff, the best service we've encountered in a longtime and the excellent food mean's we'll definitely be back.

Lovely place to visit when walking along the coast path or the beaches. Although the wind can get a bit wild and all the seating is outside. Food came out in cardboard boxes and paper bags. Tasty food though, not cheap but good value.

My husband and I walked to Wavecrest cafe for the first time just to get a drink and an ice cream during the lunchtime peak to takeaway. Despite there being plenty of people around on such a sunny warm day, the service was excellent. We queued at the coloured buckets and spades,set out for social distancing, which I think are a great idea especially for children while queuing with their parents by keep moving up to the next set of coloured buckets.The queue moved quickly enough, we were served by a very friendly member of staff who you could quite clearly see was adhering to covid rules. We paid by card and enjoyed our ice cream and drink while looking at the lovely view. Next time we visit we will try the food, which I am sure will be lovely. A great little place that does delicious Jersey icecream!

We had spent the afternoon on the beach. We needed warming up with 15 minutes to close, the cafe served us as if we were the first customers of the day. We had an amazingly delicious scone, generous in size, cream and strawberries. The hot chocolates were met with delight. My tea hit just the spot. The service was second to none. Can’t recommend this cafe enough (although would like to keep it our little secret). Thank you for adding to our fantastic day.

Staying a few minutes drive away, thought we would pop in for a takeaway. So pleased we did, a stunning fish pie, a brilliant house salad. Great chunky soup and lovely brisket bap. So kind and friendly too!

We queued up for a while for a takeout sandwich, soup and two portions of chips (cafe was closed due to COVID 19). We were second in the queue, finally, and a lady came out and told everyone they were sold out of chips. This was very disappointing as we had being looking forward to them. I mean out of all food most people want chips. They shouldn’t have ran out of chips at lunch time. I understand they were busy but surely they should be prepared for this. Anyway, we waited for our sandwich and soup. It took at least hour an hour for the food to arrive. The sandwich was very disappointing as well. Other sandwiches had gone past with big salads and crisps. We got the sandwich and a tomato. No salad. No crisps. So the soup... even worse. It was so thick it looked like a heap of squashed vegetables in a pot. I have never seen anything like this.So we spent £13 on a sandwich with too much filling and a very chunky soup. No crisps, bread with soup, or salad. A child could have done better. We ended up just eating our picnic we had brought in the lovely view. As we left the chips arrived, typical.

We came upon this place by mistake and it was so good we went back again the next day - sadly our last day in Anglesey.The food here is sensational, and the service so charming and lovely. It's low key in the very best, most sophisticated way, with top notch food, low prices, and the best holiday atmosphere.Great spot for lunch above Church Bay, and streets ahead of all local competition (although we liked the Black Lion too).Have the fish pie, the cheesy chips, the lentil curry, the chocolate fudge cake - it's all so good. And thank god it has a licence - if you can't drink at lunchtime on holiday after months of lockdown, when can you? My children are furious we can't go again tomorrow but we have to go home.Thank you Wavecrest Cafe for two really great lunches - we will be back!

We have been eating and drinking at the beautiful wave crest regularly for nearly 10 years. This family run business are the friendliest people you could ever meet who provide the most wonderful food, drinks and cakes. The cheese and onion pie is fantastic and all the other main dishes and sandwiches are delicious. The scones are amazing especially with a lovely pot of tea. We also like the breakfast rolls in the morning before heading down to the beach. The location is superb adjacent to the beautiful church bay beach. Highly recommended

My all time favourite place! Amazing food, coffees, cakes EVERYTHING!! Always ensure I make a trip to the wavecrest every time I come to Anglesey, as should everyone else! Service is always exceptional, such friendly staff x

We visited this cafe while we were on the beach at Church Bay lovely place very friendly staff and good service. The cake was very nice and we would certainly recommend a visit. The beach is excellent and very well used. It gets very busy during the holiday season

Met friends here for lunch, great food, lovely staff, great menu. Sat outside in the sunshine, it’s only a two minute walk to the beach, in a picturesque spot.

We are staying in the village of rhyd-wyn a half an hour walk from the cafe, we first went to the Church Bay inn pub however were disappointed they didn't serve food. The lady recommended the Wave Crest cafe which is open Thursday-Sunday 10-5 and serve food and alcoholic drinks if we fancied a drink with our meal.We had a wander down the hill (quite an effort walking back up to the village!). We had our dog with us and were advised only the outside seating area was dog friendly, which is a shame in poor weather!However the sandwiches and drinks were lovely and we bought some Dog-friendly ice cream that they serve and they were kind enough to bring a little Turkey out for our dog too! Fast and friendly service. I'm sure we will be back this holiday before we leave.

The cafe is well located in Church Bay and we decided to have lunch before doing a coastal walk. We had the best fish pie ever!, it was served with a fruit/vegetable salad. The food is served very quick, the staff is nice and helpful, and the cafe is also dog friendly. We will definitely go back for more fish pie!!

This is a real gem of a place with some amazing offerings on the menu. The cheese pie is amazing.the sones are a must and the views from the garden across the sea and countryside great.

We were on a walk and noticed that the cafe was still open....15 mine to go, so we had cold drinks and one of those wonderful scones.......I was going to throw it down my throat as I don't like to keep staff working when they are trying to close....but I was told "not to hurry, take your time"......what a lovely man...in the event, we were finished on time anyway....but what lovely people.Brilliant cafe and location, great staff, great cakes...what's not to love.

This is a must visit. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. The menu looks lush although we only sampled a scone and coffee. The scones are huge. And they taste as good as they look. It was served up on a small china plate which is something rare these days. If we were staying longer in Anglesey I am sure we would have returned.

Found this place by mistake as we took a road trip along North Anglesey coast Very quirky, good food, family friendly We even went back for cake a few days later A proper find

Visited with friends for an early lunch. Our fish pie was freshly cooked (not Re-heated) and served with a beautiful salad. To drink we had a no-fuss cup of tea that was served in china cups on matching saucers and accompanied by a pot of hot water we didn’t have to request.

Gorgeous food fresh coffee adorable cakes not bad prices and most importantly a nice vibe off the staff. Would highly recommend to all.

Stop here often as only live up the road we settled down outside placed our order and I couldn’t wait for the Bakewell Tart and he Bara Brith Fruit Cake. What can I say other Then superb . The other food also received good praises and in true strictly style TENNNNNN

We first discovered this cafe last year and have been back three times this year. We've been delighted each time. They serve very generous portions but the food is well-cooked and nicely presented. Robin and his team are very friendly and efficient at the same time - the service was very quick despite being very busy. It's very family-friendly with drawing and reading materials for children. Lovely location on the Anglesey Coastal path. We can't wait to return!

The dogs wanted a drink so they drank at the dog bowl. They were then offered free biscuits so we felt that we should at least join in.

Arranged to meet up with a friend at this lovely cafe situated by a great beach at Church Bay. Friendly staff. Lovely coffee. However the star of the day had to be the magnificent scone with cream and strawberries. A cake that filled me up for the entire day! Well worth a visit!
