the hot chocolate here has built a quiet reputation that carries well beyond ancaster square, and for good reason. llanrwst isn't a town people pass through expecting much, so when a coffee shop genuinely delivers, word spreads fast and sticks. the regulars at cafe contessa have been consistent about this place for long enough that you'd be foolish to treat it as a casual stop. order carefully, take your time, and don't skip the hot chocolate if the weather's doing what north wales weather usually does. ancaster square is a good place to sit with something warm, and cafe contessa gives you a real reason to stay there a little longer than you planned.
