Cosy cafe located in the Owain Glyndwr Centre. Great for lunch or just coffee and cake. Welsh speaking is encouraged here, so a great opportunity to practise your tipin bach. Keep an eye out for their evening events as well.
Also check out the shops next to it, hidden away in the building: Blodyn Tatws Vegetable shop (say hi to Mair) and Dwrgi Flowers.

After a swim and a walk along the shore, I highly recommend this place for an evening meal and a pint. Great sea food and veggie burgers and additional seating outside, practically on the beach.

Environmental education visitor centre, founded in 1969. Learn about sustainable living methods and enjoy their beautiful organic gardens. I recommend having a ride on the water powered cliff railway, visiting Roger's veg garden and the Quarry Walk which will take you past breathtaking views of the old slate quarry and through CAT's sustainable woodlands.
