My travel companion and I had dinner at Dylan's on a recent trip and loved it so much we returned…read morethe following evening! Dylan's is in a beautiful location directly on the water, and the atmosphere is elegant but relaxed. There's lots of inexpensive public parking at the nearby beach, so there's no need to worry about finding a place to park. The first night, I ordered the crispy sea bass tacos, and the quality of the sea bass was sensational. The next night, I had the herb and parmesan crusted hake fillet, which if anything was even more delicious. The hake was possibly the best fish I've ever eaten, and the creamy mustard leeks were spectacular. After a lot of heavy pub food while traveling in Wales, the light and refined food at Dylan's was a welcome change. The only thing that I didn't like quite as much was the dessert: I ordered the cinnamon churros, and while they were by no means bad, they just didn't wow me the way the rest of the meal had. Our servers both evening were friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I also appreciated that Dylan's is open until 11:00 p.m., as many of the restaurants we ate at in Wales closed considerably earlier. If you're in Criccieth, I'd certainly recommend Dylan's!

As far as pubs go, this was a good one. Some regular "pub food". I'm a picky eater...so to me…read morethat's not great. I'm also American...so I wanted a beef (not pork) hot dog, "French fries" not chips, and any salad dressing that wasn't mayo in disguise would have been great on my "salad". Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. If you like pub food, they did a good job of it. The atmosphere was good, the locale was fabulous, and the staff were all super sweet. I liked it. The 3 Stars is just because I want to be able to count on Yelp to give me 5 stars only for the super fabulous. As far as pubs go this is a 4.5. Oh, and it's kid-friendly, which I like.

I'll keep this short and sweet as I was only in there for an hour or so…read more I found the pub to be a really nice and relaxing place with a great selection of beers,and an even better choice of Bourbon,not everywhere has a bottle of Knob Creek behind the bar! If i'm honest,the reviews moaning about the Landlord make me like this place even more,as myself and my fellow Metal Heads were made more than welcome (Not always the case in most non Metal pubs in small towns). So if you are in the area,pop in for a pint of Celtica in a really comfy seat and you never know,you may get to see the Boss get angry : )

Looks great, this little family friendly restaurant, and smells great when you walk in. The staff…read moreare friendly and the decor is warm and inviting. We had a starter each, main course each and a bottle of red wine between us and the whole thing came to £58.20. The food was good not great - my duck was waaaaaay too rich and made me ill in the night - but Mog's lamb was delicious. It was wierd eating duck and lamb next to a family whos kids were eating alphabet shaped potato bites smothered in tomato sauce, but this restaurant values families and their custom and make children and parents feel very welcome. It was definitely much nicer than pub grub and the atmosphere was great. One negative - the ladies toilet is upstairs and is just a small room off the main dining area. The door is positioned right next to a table big enough to seat 6-8 and any guests sat there could easily here you tinkle (or worse) and you're in danger of tripping over them on the way out of the lavvie!

Nothing cordon bleu about it, but worth a visit anyway (not much more choice in Criccieth anyway!) as it is in my opinion good value.

Best pub in the UK. Been coming here for 11 years for drinks, lunch and sun (sometimes) and sea…read more Based right on the beach, it is small inside but with the whole beach serving as the beer garden it can cater for large numbers. Food served daily in the summer with a good choice of sandwiches, pies, salad ploughmans etc. A little on the pricey side but huge portions and location justify this. Staff are friendly and knowledgable about the area. Simply my favourite pub ever. Check out their webcam for an idea of the view and location.

I first discovered the Last Inn in September 2012 when I decided that I needed to escape the city…read morefor the day, and enjoy some sea air. I used doggiepubs app to find a decent, dog friendly pub and the Last Inn was top of the list and, in fact, the first place we saw as we arrived. As a great example, for £10 you get a two course Sunday roast which is utterly amazing (and huge!) which consists of Welsh black beef (they offer a veggie option too), colcannon, roast potatoes, stuffing, a selection of vegetables and a delightful little gravy boat all of your own. This filling feast is followed by your choice of hot dessert ranging from rice pudding to apple crumble, chocolate brownie through to jam roly poly and more. The food is traditional, delicious, piping hot and accompanied with friendly service. As well as the Sunday roast, they offer a broad menu, specials board and also have live music and other entertainment on throughout the week. Recently, they've also started serving good quality coffees and specialty teas, which just adds to the experience. As a dog owner, how a 'dog friendly pub' behaves towards my four legged friend also makes a difference. The Last Inn always bring a bowl of water over for Finn, and make a fuss of him, so they get my vote! Last Sunday's visit certainly won't be my last and if you're up that way, it's well worth a look!

This is the local hangout for a few of the people we ended up seeing and spending time with while…read morewe were in Barmouth. This pub is apparently for a more sophisticated crowd. Seemed that way to me for the most part. We came here more than once on this trip. It is a pretty interesting thing that they have going on here. Ok, maybe not super interesting, but interesting nonetheless. You can actually drink across the street from the pub. On any given summer night there could be 20-30 people sitting/standing along the fence across the street with plastic cups of beer or whatever. I imagine most of these folks are locals. We hung out out there one night and for the most part they seemed like locals. We were here on a Sunday night as well as a weekday night. Sunday night had live music. The other night had an open mic night. On the Sunday night we ended up eating dinner. We were able to procure a table outside which was quite lovely. I ended up having a nice steak that was cooked medium rare (it was one of the only times on this trip that I was asked how I wanted my meat prepared). It was a nice piece of meat and I would definitely order it again should I ever come back. I know I will be back in Barmouth again. If I had a choice of pubs to frequent in Barmouth, the Last Inn would be that choice.

Won't answer phone (said they wee too busy, even though we called repeatedly from about 5 pm to 8…read morepm), which caused us to miss our dinner. They botched next night's dinner reservation - we made reservations for three for 6.30; they put it down as two for 7.30...we went elsewhere. They wouldn't make up our room until we complained. Room was nice but smells exactly like wet dog.

BOOK AHEAD TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT!…read more Right this place is a bugger to find, and when you do you might think ''What... I came all this way for this?'' Situated near the water is this little welsh pub that serves food 12 -2.15 and reopens for 6.30pm. I have been coming here for years and its NEVER let me down. Inside reminds me of my late nans room, pokey and full of brass-ware .. at the far back of the pub lies a more refined dining area with white table cloths. You can sit either in the pub to soak some local welsh atmosphere or retreat to the back. Arriving at 12 on the dot, already there were a couple of locals having a pint. The barman greeted us warmly and offered to bring our drinks over while we browsed the menu. Here you can choose from the seafood specials board, lunch and their everyday menu. I highly recommend anything that has fish in it as it is all locally sourced... After much oomming and ahhing I settled on the seafood linguine and my companions had the crab fishcakes. When the food arrived I was happy. The amount of seafood in my dish was incredible. Small and large prawns, salmon, smoked haddock, scallops and mussels all swimming in a sea of fresh homemade pasta... the sauce was a flavoursome creamy white broth which was not too dense. Everything just tasted so fresh , even the crab fish cakes served with homemade chips. By the time we were half way through our meal the place was full..again if you want to come here you must book to save disappointment. The prices are really reasonable too, our meal came to about £40 for the three of us including drinks!. Overall the fact you have to book no matter what day, says it all,,

There are a few pubs surrounding the market place that gives the city this reputation, but one pub that's the exception is the Albert Inn on Segontium Terrace. I live on the same street and have been into this pub more than any other in the city, and walked past it most nights as well, and my opinion of the pub is that it's an old-fashioned quiet but friendly little pub that's full of character. The pub is old-fashioned in style but nicely decorated - with wooden floors and beams and wooden tables and chairs and bar. There's a pool table that takes up one half of the front of the pub, and a cosy area in front of a real fire in the other half. The bar itself is towards the back, along with some more seating. There's a variety of drinks available and prices are reasonable. There's a smoking area outside the back door which is excellent as it means there isn't anybody stood outside the front door smoking - I think even the nicest of pubs are affected by this image. Despite being English, I've never felt threatened in here and the regulars are all really friendly and chatty towards me.
