Chirk Castle (National Trust) – Wrexham, North Wales


We had a few days away in North Wales last week so the next few reviews are all from that trip.

We visited Chirk Castle on Sunday and the first thing we did was go for coffee and cake in the tea room!

My husband had a slice of Ginger cake and a cup of filter coffee and I had a slice of Chocolate cake and a hot chocolate. My husband was a little disappointed with the cake selection as nothing really leapt out at him but there were 3 or 4 different cakes to choose from. He did quite enjoy the cake and said the coffee was nice.

I enjoyed the cake, it was homemade, nice and moist very chocolately. It tasted like they had used a good quality cocoa powder in the sponge. The butter icing was nice as well although ideally I’d have liked a little more of it. My hot chocolate was nice as well (but some marshmallows would have been nice!).
