Re: The New Medeterain

Went to the Medeterain  last week haven't been for a while very disappointed with the food we had kebabs and a Greek salad (very little feta cheese and a lot of lettuce not very Greek) and a bowl of very pale frozen chips. What shame it could be really good to have a restaurant that did Greek / Med food. We have tried the tapas at the Gresham which was very good better than some Spanish restaurant I've been to.
We went to the Mediterranean on Friday evening. Service was good, but have to agree about the food. Won't be rushing back, sadly.

Friends told us last night about the Corner Café in Rhos on Sea and  said they were really pleased with everything there. They also mentioned the Deli across the road where the HSBC was so we'll have a look at them both this week.

The Corner Cafe is very good. I can also recommend the Harbour Cafe at the foot of Rhos Road. Full Welsh Breakfast with toast and tea/coffee there for £5.95 and very good it was too.

The Corner Cafe (Rhos on Sea) also gets my vote. Excellent food & coffee.

Well, the Costa Coffee has now opened in Colwyn Bay - was busy today, with a lot of teens there after school. A big improvement on having another empty space.

Costa in Colwyn Bay was full of schoolkids at 8:30 this morning, no doubt fueling themselves on caffeine to get through double maths.  It was also full of schoolkids at lunchtime as well.  The cafe next door was as busy as ever so it looks like Costa will be relying on parting teens from their pocket money if they want to turn a profit.

It will be nice to have a coffee shop thats open on Sunday, Colwyn Bay is like a ghost town on that day normally.

I've just had a meal of Ham. eggs and chips with a Cappuccino at the Corner Café in Rhos and really enjoyed it.   The meal was delicious, well presented and the staff were very good too.
Next time I go,  I'll arrive before midday and have that tempting breakfast.      $good$        $dins$

Upper Mostyn Street was comparatively quiet last night.
I would have thought a percentage of the shortage in footfall could be attributed the the recent closure of the Boulevard and further footfall was probably lost as a result of the inclement weather.

Noticably there was an increased police presence on the Friday evening. But then they dont have to police the boulevard now.
Do we assume that as the dust settles from the Boulevard closure the winners will be the those who control the local policing budgets.
