Best Café- The Loaf Coffee and Sandwich Bar
Rated number 1 on Trip Adviser for the best restaurants in Llandudno, the Loaf Coffee and Sandwich Bar truly deserves its spot on our list of the best restaurants in Llandudno. It specialises in serving freshly brewed coffee, and delicious homemade cakes.
They also serve a hearty breakfast (as all good cafes should do) consisting of locally sourced sausages and bacon. You might have to wait a little while for your food though as everything is freshly cooked to order, but we think this is the way it should be.
