1. Rumdoodles

Location: North Snowdonia

Kicking off the list is the incredibly well reviewed and curiously named, Rumdoodles. This is actually an outdoor store with an espresso bar so you can shop for your mountain essentials while sipping on a delicious local coffee.

They exclusively serve Heartland Coffee which is freshly roasted nearby and served with plenty of friendly conversation and personality. If you’re in north Snowdonia, don’t miss stopping by Rumdoodles!

Don’t forget to have a look around their shop too – it’s packed with beautifully designed pieces.
