Nice Coffee, but not so Jolly for Vegans. - Edit
Jollys Coffee House & Patisserie is situated in the historic town of Biwmares (Beaumaris), which has an excellent vantage point of Eryri. I visited for a coffee on a quiet Sunday morning and received excellent service from the friendly staff.
Read moreTo drink, I had an Oat Flat White which was really good, and I loved the green mug and saucer it was served in. They also have Almond and Soya milks available. There was only one vegan bake in their large display, a Super Flapjack, but a staff member also told me they usually had Vegan Apple Pie available, too. In addition to hot drinks, Jollys also serves soft drinks and homemade smoothies suitable for vegans. The food menu had no labelled vegan options, and the only vegan dish I could see on there was a Jacket Potato with Beans. This is a shame as in the display fridge, they had three delecious looking unlabelled as vegan side salads, which they serve with meat products such as sausage rolls and scotch eggs.
Jollys could be a great place for vegans if they wanted to be. Even buying in some more vegan cakes and some vegan sausage rolls and Pasties to serve with their salads would be a huge improvement. I'd probably pop in again for a coffee if I was nearby, but I prefer to spend my money at places that have a wider range of vegan options.

Salad options - Edit
Service here was a bit chaotic. Serving staff didn't take note of the table numbers. So, they had to call out for customers to identify their orders. We were mistaken for people who'd ordered bacon baps. That said the staff were lovely and welcoming.
Read moreThe patisserie itself it bright and has great views from the back over The Straits to the Eryri mountain range.
We called in for a hot drink and had a look at the food menu. Sadly there was only a jacket potato with baked beans as a vegan dish listed. However, they did have a three salads not on the menu which were vegan.
The hot chocolate is vegan and there's a variety of plant milks available. Although there were lots of cakes available, the only vegan options were apple pie or a flapjack 😔
So, not a great place for vegans. I probably won't go back unless it's raining and everywhere else is full.
