Pennal Church

The medieval church of St. Peter Ad Vincula lies in the beautiful village of Pennal in western Wales. The church was founded in the 6th century by Celtic missionaries from Brittany. It is the only church in Wales dedicated to Saint Peter in Chains (ad Vincula), whose story can be found in the Acts of the Apostles XII. Although its history spans some 1500 years, the church is most famous for its association with Owain Glyndwr, who came to Pennal in 1406. Here Glyndwr composed his famous "Penal Letter," a copy of which is found in the church. The church also features a large oil painting depicting Glyndwr's visit to Pennal.

We are a family orientated restaurant serving a wide range of fresh cooked food. We are pragmatic in our approach to ingredients etc e.g our suppliers are all based in Wales, our coffee is fair trade, our eggs are free range, our steaks are welsh black beef, our prices are always reasonable. The menu always has a selection of vegetarian meals and a childrens section. We are situated by the sea, with plenty of free parking, our beach is blue flag and we face south. During the summer dolphins and porpoises are frequent visitors and fishing from the breakwater can be great when the mackerel are around. During the summer we are open from 12 noon until 9.00 pm although our sister cafe next door (Blue China) serves breakfast from 9.00 am. As our trade reduces substantially during the winter period our hours of opening reduce accordingly and we are invariably closed for January.
