Gwynedd, Fish & Seafood Restaurant Guide

All reports acknowledge the “great building and position” – a stylish modern structure with “terrific views over the Menai Straits” – at this waterside venue (with branches now in Criccieth and Llandudno) and there’s always a decent crowd here. But some diners feel there’s “always a slight disappointment” about the “very average” nosh: “I felt the accountants are in charge, not the chefs”.

“An amazing location on the Isle of Anglesey” inspires nothing but good vibes at this striking looking, glass-walled destination, overlooking the dunes above Traeth Llydan beach, where “great seafood is served with panache”. “The entertainment offered by Valley RAF can add to the experience!” (the nearby airfield being home to No 4 Flying Training School, the UK’s centre for training fighter pilots).
