Two of our party had bruschetta for starters and absolutely loved it . Main courses of salmon , beef and lamb were consumed with much enthusiasm and were rated very highly indeed. Bread and butter sticky toffee pudding was out of this world. Coffees were accompanied by oohs and arrs so I can only assume that they were superb. All in all an excellent restaurant with great staff and an extremely capable chef. Ten out of ten Thanks to everyone who contributed to make the visit an excellent one Sue,Margaret, Bob and Dave

Excellent restaurant. Dined there with 7 golfing friends, and all thought their food was delicious…read more I started with the mince meat covered with cheese, a house speciality which sounds much more filling than it really is; followed by pheasant and new potatoes (tender, full of flavor) and finished with treacle toffee pudding (not bad but I've had better - too much chocolate flavor for me). Others had fish cakes, pork tenderloin, lamb, and a variety of starters and desserts; but really everyone was complimentary of their food. Service was also above par. Friendly, attentive and smiling, even while putting up with our banter. Highly recommended restaurant.

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,,

Restaurant with the best views in the UK. Probably…read more It's worth a visit just for the stunning views of Cader Idris through the massive front windows. Bwyty Mawddach is (I think) a beautifully converted barn, full of oak and slate and that breathtaking vista. It's run by Ifan and Amelie, with much of the lamb served in the restaurant farmed on the surrounding land by Ifan's brother. Downstairs is a lounge area, with the main seating area upstairs. I've always been in a big group every time I've been here and can attest that it's a great venue for friends and families. The food is largely local and seasonal. It's reasonably priced and there's a good selection. I've never had any complaints about the service.

I chose the early bird option with smoked salmon&shrimp mango salsa salad and traditional roast lamb and boyfriend chose the chicken liver and the plaice as the main. I must say that although the salad was refreshing, I was a bit disappointed by the lamb roast because it was quite dry and not tender as I'd hope and I had a hunch that it was not one that had been roasted recently, which happens I guess. So...I wouldn't recommend the roast lamb unless it was just an off day for the dish. However, my boyfriend's plaice was divine and I could have easily eaten all of my boyfriend's food. The fish was perfectly cooked i.e. not overcooked and the sauce was marvellous. Despite my dissatisfaction with the roast lamb, I still give this place a five star because it is a very good restaurant with quality food, beautiful setting, good service and reasonably priced - the early option from 6-7pm was only GBP17.00 for a large two course meal. I think if I'd not chosen the early bird option and had chosen the rump of lamb that might have been the far better choice. Great place to treat yourself to a fine dining after a day on the hills/mountains if you are in the north west area of Snowdonia or in Portmadog.

But what we really enjoyed was the soup of the day - a broccoli and local cheese soup that was divine. Then came the main course. I had lamb that was amazing. My wife had a pork dish that was pretty fatty, hence the four stars rather than five this place could really support. The ambience was lovely. There is a hard one can sit in during nice weather. Lastly, and probably only secondary in importance to the quality of the food, is the excellence of the service. We were superbly looked after. Three staff took care of us very unobtrusively but effectively. I recommend this place.

Both times that we came, the food was bursting with delicious, fresh flavors. The halloumi fries had the squeaky bite they're known for. The fish and chips had a light and crispy batter and flaky fish. The cheese and potato pie was creamy comfort. Both of these dishes were recommended and ordering twice. The steak sandwich was tender and meaty. Desserts were sweet, satisfying, and left us all feeling quite content after the savoriness of our meals. We had the same server both times and she was fantastic! She was friendly and attentive, making sure that we had everything plus any extras that were needed. It's got to be said that the view here is phenomenal! The Corn Mill hangs above the River Dee, which gives spectacular views.
