The Hidden Chapel restaurant and bar sits in the main body of the converted chapel and opens for dinner Thursday to Sunday. Breakfast is made to order with local produce, including Welsh sausages, and is served in the chapel. Themed dinner nights, live music evenings, special diet menus, wine, and champagne are offered on-site.
