The Brenig is beautiful. Really nice roads to drive on. The views are amazing. You can fish at the alwen which is close to by for trout. Hire boats which is really fun. Cafe is nice and really clean and respectful nice cakes and a banging hot chocolate.

This fully accessible café has a great view over Llyn Brenig. The food we had was very nice but the menu was very limited, the building design, its setting and lovely atmosphere deserving more than was available.

This is my second visit and I’m so impressed with the venue, a great place for anyone who loves the great outdoors. Brilliant activities including a beautiful swing park. The cafe is brilliant, their breakfasts are delicious. Great to see LYN BRENIG/ DWR CYMRYU

Lovely long walk with kids around Alwyn reservoir. Then walked around Llyn Brenig and had lunch in the cafe. Kids played on park. Fantastic walk and beautiful scenery

Lovely breakfast! £10.95 is great value compared to a lot of other places where you would get half as much for possibly £5-£8 more. Such a beautiful setting and the staff were really friendly. My only criticism was that the water in my cappuccino tasted a little bit funny but other than that it was spot on. Will be visiting more often from now on. Keep up the good work!
