Timpsons are tucked away on a little sidestreet off the High Street (if you can call it that) in Caernarfon.
Same as any other Timpsons you go there if you either
a) need keys cutting
or
b) need shoes mending
I've never personally taken any shoes to be mendeed there, but if you're partial to wearing high heels, and are in the habit of snapping them off when sozzled, the little man in this shop will be a lifesaver. Never heard a bad thing about the cobbler, he's good at what he does.
If you need keys cutting it's the only place to go in town I believe. They do a fine job on various door keys, but I've never tried cutting spare car keys there, might be worth calling ahead if you have a spangly key with an immobiliser chip built in as I'm unsure whether or not they can code the keys.
Whenever I've needed keys cutting the service has been very quick, either cut while you wait, or pop back when you're ready - whichever suits. The keys have always opened the door, so, err, they're fit for purpose, and the price is always reasonable. read more
