Always halal. No shortcuts, no substitutes — just a warm plate in the mountains.
Two en-suite rooms and a self-contained twin apartment in the heart of Betws-y-Coed — each with everything you need for a night in the mountains, and a warm meal waiting downstairs. View the photos, then book your room direct on Airbnb.
Cooked to order, the traditional way — tandoor-grilled kebabs, slow-simmered curries, fresh breads and rice. Every dish halal. A discretionary 10% service charge applies to dine-in.
Tap what you need to avoid and every dish is marked — contains, may contain, or clear. Covers the 14 regulated allergens.
Based on Abbasi's allergen matrix (reviewed 18 April 2026). Our kitchen handles all 14 allergens, so no dish can be guaranteed free from traces — please tell your server before ordering. "May contain" flags gluten carried from shared fryers.
