Ponderosa Cafe

Good honest grub in spectacular countryside. We arrived in pouring rain sat in a window seat and enjoyed our lunch with amazing views of landscape at first and then watched the clouds roll in. Had a full breakfast and it was very nicely cooked and very tasty, we will be back. Parking: Plenty of parking around the restaurant and some accross the road. Wheelchair accessibility: Sloping ground but easy step free options for access.

Great spot on the top of a hill just outside Llangollen. Clean and functional partially self-service cafe. We stopped there on a snowy weekday. Ponderosa is the perfect break after super tobogganing up there Service: 4/5

Had a lovely breakfast with the other members of the mini club, very friendly staff Only marked down because there was a bit of hard gristle on my bacon and there was a cute little mouse running through the lower seating areaFood: 4/5

On start of Horseshoe pass. Loads of parking . Big cafe with various areas to eat. Clean, warm, good for bikers and walkers or just passing by. Lovely viewsService: 5/5

Essential Bikers meet, great views and roads leading to Ponderosa, 80’s looking diner although precooked breakfast rather than freshly cooked it was a great feed, 20p for the toilet if you don’t buy anything

Popped in whilst out for a top-down drive over the Horseshoe Pass. It's a funny looking place from the outside, but inside its a perctly normal cafe. From the carpark you'll find great views of the Welsh countryside, and a starting point for some hilly treks. Inside you can fill up on big breakfasts and barms of a sandwich. Service was excellent and friendly. Opted for a trusty bacon, sausage and egg barm and it wasn't bad. Perhaps a little pricey, but it's a captive audience I guess. No doubt I'll frequent again on another Sunday morning drive out!

Great location to RV with the Grandkids - Super Lunch and then play in the snow for a couple of hours afterwards. Would recommend and of course visit again but would also ask if they could raise the Union Flag the correct way round

Old fashioned but in a nice location with stunning views and the food is cheap and tasty enough. Would avoid on warm summers weekends due to being extremely busy.Food: 3/5

World, well almost, famous Ponderosa is THE meeting point for petrol heads, especially Bikers because its surrounded by fantastic twisty roads and great scenery.Location: 5/5
