"During our holiday, we made sure to visit the Railway Cafe on our first full day, as we had missed out on it the year before. We were not disappointed. I ordered the ham, egg, and chips, while my wife had the Welsh Rarebit, and we both enjoyed our meals with their generous portions. My wife even mentioned that it was the best rarebit she had ever tasted. It was interesting to see that many locals were also enjoying their lunch there, and we enjoyed listening to their stories and comments. If we ever find ourselves back in Tywyn, we would definitely visit the Railway Cafe again. I even bought a mug with a map of the Tywyn area from the shop as a souvenir to remember our visit."

The service at this restaurant is always friendly, and the food is fantastic. We love coming here for afternoon tea and tea cakes, or for lunch. The ambiance with the train theme adds to the overall experience.

I ordered a takeaway sandwich which was very overpriced. It had a few pieces of fatty, undercooked bacon and they forgot to include the egg. The sandwich was thrown into a box without even being wrapped up. I can't believe I paid £7 for that! It was a disappointing experience.

Went for Sunday roast dinner for 1pm . Very busy which was great to see but meant long queue and wait for food. Choice lamb beef or turkey although had run out of beef by time I ordered. The regular sized lamb meal was delicious when it came and couldn’t fault presentation, amount and taste. Wasn’t cheap at £11.45 but was a nice treat.

My son and I had Sunday lunch at King 's restaurant as part of a Behind the Scenes experience at the Talylln Railway. The choice of food was varied, and the food itself was freshly prepared and delicious. The staff were pleasant, friendly and helpful despite being run off their feet. No surprise that the restaurant was very busy it 's a gem!

Qe popped in for lunch as a couple on a sunny October Saturfay. We sat on the platform and watched the train go out and enjoyed a delicious lunch. There is a good selection on the menu for hot and cold meals. The drink selection is good too with alcoholic and non alcoholic options. We had welsh rarebit and tuna sandwiches with chips. A lovely place to while away an hour. We will definitely be back

We stopped here for a light lunch after a trip on the steam train to see the waterfalls. The staff were really friendly and we all decided to have a sandwich, the bread was really fresh and the fillings were delicious, we had sweet chilli chicken, coronation chicken and tuna with a tasty side salad. I had a latte with a vanilla shot which was also delicious. Everyone cleared their plates so that says a lot.

an hour before leaving the talyllyn railway thought here easy refreshments. this licensed outlet offers a good and varied selection of hot and cold food in a clean environment. well prepared eating and excellent service is provided by the small friendly team. Given the meaning of this Platinum Jubilee year, it was my opinion that their coronation chicken sandwich is probably the best I have eaten anywhere..A really pleasant break.

Here 2 days running this week. Both had the Broad Gauge breakfast, although there are several breakfast options to choose from to suit all appetites, and vegetarians and vegans are also well catered for. Basically, a big breakfast, with good quality ingredients, well cooked. It shouldn’t be that difficult, but you’d be amazed how many preserved railways can get this wrong. At King’s Cafe at Tywyn Wharf, they do everything right, and the staff are always cheerful and helpful too, even when busy. Quite simply, the best breakfast on any preserved railway in the UK, in our opinion. Thanks Kings.
