Caffi Alys

Great place, loads of history. Ser ice and food good.

First class full house Welsh breakfast including tea/coffee and toast for £9-00 in cosy surroundings with lovely staff, what more could you ask for? Wish we lived closer!

Absolutely lovely place whether you want coffi and cake, a brecwast, lunch or a dinner. This place is so cosy and has a welcoming atmosphere.

Popped in for the first time this week. A very warm welcome by the staff, by far the busiest cafe (that afternoon) in Machynlleth.

We both had coffee and the most glorious vegan chocolate cake, which I think is the nicest cake I've ever had (and I've had a lot). We spoiled the vegan-ness by smothering it in cream, but who cares 😁.

Rest assured, we will most definitely be back!

They make amazing coffee, it didn’t give me the jitters, and delicious healthy-ish brownies. Beautiful outdoor seating area. I hope to come back some day!

Snug and friendly cafe come eatery with a wide range of (real) home-cooked delights. Coffee is excellent and if you're quick, get a spot on the sofas next to the wood-burner. Staff always friendly, attentive and will encourage your Welsh language skills! Excellent.

Lovely little characterful place, it feels like a traditional tea room or a WWI pop up or something, in the best of ways.
It has toilets but I didn't use them so can't say about disabled access or anything, but everywhere I went was clean.
There is no dedicated parking, but I had no problems finding roadside parking.
Historic beautiful building and garden with seating out the back.
The coffee was really good, and the fresh cakes too. I would definitely drive out of my way to pop back if I'm anywhere near again.

Visited this cafe for the first time on Wednesday and very much enjoyed our visit.
I particularly liked that they had a base price for breads, jacket potatoes etc and you chose your toppings which were all individually priced. My friend is vegetarian and had lots of choice too. My jacket potato was yummy, lots of butter, with cheese and bacon and some cherry tomatoes with seasoning on, they were delicious. My friend had hummus and red onion on her sani.
We also had tea and a cappuccino. I liked that there were obviously regulars dotted about with their laptops, bodes well. Only downside, I initially sat on a very soft sofa and sank in so beware of that if you are not so mobile as getting out was fun! Lovely friendly smiley lady with dark hair served us. Would recommend 😋

My favourite local coffee shop and restaurant. The staff are an absolute delight and a pleasure to speak to. The room has an ancient rustic charm, the garden with its tent and seats is always a highlight especially during covid. The coffee shop is located inside an historic building and I wish the owners would upgrade the washrooms but that is not Caffi Alys fault.

Great place to eat, drink meet friends and just chill. Lovely staff. Enjoy my coffee and toast when I pop in on a morning!!!!!

Great little cafe with lovely staff. Food was great, really good quality ingredients.

I am a regular here, it is a warm friendly cafe with very good food. Helpful friendly staff who welcome both Welsh speakers and English speakers with warmth. It's a great place for Welsh language learners to practice speaking and be assured of an answer. It also hosts events that are well worth attending.

Formally Cafe Alys, now Cafe Glyndwr. Excellent homemade food, nicely presented and a good choice. Will be back. Thank you Team Jones👍

Always a welcome here and all staff friendly and food good and if not on menu depending what you want they will do it for you.

Brought a group of Americans for refreshments. The service was excellent as was the food. All raving about the barabrith.

Great service and atmosphere at cafe alys.
Wide choice of drinks, and gluten free cakes on offer.

Great baked potatoes and good coffee. Friendly staff and a nice relaxed atmosphere.

Best Bacon & egg sandwiches!! We always stop here for breakfast when we visit Machynlleth. Nice coffee too, and reasonably priced.

Fantastic food, great service would definitely recommend

Beautiful venue and lovely garden to have a cuppa, cheerful staff but low on gluten free products though
