Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Visited on two afternoons whilst on holiday. This is a bijou place with a few tables and old fashioned metal tractor seats as bar stools (also a couple of tables outside). It serves excellent beers, gins and some great alcohol free beers. Bottles are on sale to take out (£11 for 3) including meads and ciders with a great choice. Sells upmarket crisps & nuts and delicious bar snacks e.g. Pork pies, pickled eggs on platters. Good atmosphere. One gripe, owners are not very friendly or chatty.

We visited this small bar/ distillery while staying in Barmouth and it soon became our favourite, dog friendly as well serving dog meals with all proceeds going to the dogs trust.
There is small selection of snacks available scotch egg etc, served with a smile, but the main reason for going has to be the own brewed beer & gin , which you will spoilt for choice with, after visiting once our dog wouldn't let us walk past, so we had to oblige.
There is well stocked shop selling there own produce so great for gifts as well

Went for early evening dinner and had an enjoyable hour or so. When we booked earlier in the day we'd been warned that the menu has now changed - they now serve pizzas and a tasty range of bites which complement their fabulous range of beers.
They also serve doggy meals and our cocker happily wolfed down a big bowl of chicken and gravy. Drinks-wise, it was so hot we had to quench our thirst with a couple of refreshing ciders! Nice friendly place, great value.

A real shame….seems to have all the credentials for an enjoyable experience…..self brewed ales and spirits, pleasant seating environment….what could go wrong…..??
The reception you receive is beyond frosty, the “gentleman “ behind the bar couldn’t make it any more obvious that he would much rather anybody other than the few locals who no doubt frequent the place all year just walked on by.
Never again

Myself and my wife popped in here last night 21/02/2020 for a quick bite to eat and to sample some of the locally brewed ales.
There were a lot of ales on offer and all sold at a reasonable price.
I opted for the lamb burger & a pint deal, whilst my wife opted for the steak and black velvet pie.
After ordering the food was with us in around 15 minutes and the presentation was good.
From the first bite into my burger my tastebuds were scintillating and they just wanted more, without a shadow of a doubt this is the best burger I have ever tasted.
The owners informed me that the burgers are from the local butchers in Barmouth so I will be paying a visit today.
I did also try 1 or 4 of the ales whilst visiting but there were far to many for me to get through although they do sell bottles for you to take away.
We will definitely be returning to this little bistro in the near future xx

A great quirky little find on the high street, amongst a parade of shops, so easy to miss! Family run brewery and distillery, specialising in Welsh beers, ciders, rum, vodka and gin, all available to taste and buy from this friendly family run enterprise. Loads of different flavours to sample as well as a lovely but limited food menu. It’s a small terraced property, so I imagine that it can get cramped at busy times. Well worth seeking out. Free Wi-Fi as a bonus.

We dropped on this little gem when caught I the rain at Barmouth prior to our journey back across the Mmawdach Estuary. It appeared to be a small micro brewery and we welcomed the chance for a refreshing beer away from the weather. We were a party of six and a dog and we were welcomed inside by a friendly but no way pretentious lady. Drinks were good, some cask beers and lots of bottled ciders and ales. We then spotted the menu, pan fried cod, local Cawl homemade burgers. Too good to be true. We ordered our food with little nibbles on the side like a few scampi and salt and pepper potatoes.
I am not exaggerating when I say it was all of restaurant quality. This is far from a micro brewery that does a bit of cafe food on the side.
My compliments went to the Chef and also the lady who looked after us.
As you can see from my previous reviews, a place has to get my Spidey Senses tingling in order for me to commit to a review (whether positive or constructive).
Whether it's for a beer or nibbles or a fantastic meal, do not miss this gem. PS beers about 3.80 pint, pan fried cod, chips, peas and salad 10.50, nibbles about 2.50. Brilliant value.

Absolutely suberb tap house, forget the two previous reviews on this site.
We spent seven days in barmouth, five of them we visited this brilliant tap house and would have been more but they have to close two days to brew.
Excellent mix of ales superbly crafted, I even purchased the tee shirt lol.
If you get chance pay a visit.

We've wanted to try Myrddins for a while and it didn't disappoint.
A small yet spacious, friendly tapproom offering a fantastic selection of their own beers and spirits. Other beers and ciders on tap and a great selection of bottles, all to drink in or take away..
Nice to see a 3-spirit-sampler on offer in addition to the usual 3 x 1/3 pint beer sampler. Myrddin's rhubarb & ginger gin is delicious and was my favourite.
Knowledgeable, chatty owners who obviously take great pride in their brewing/distilling and their premises (which was spotlessly clean)
We're already looking forward to our next visit 😁

We went to myrddions for a main meal whilst on holiday in Barmouth. This bar is a little gem, I had the beef lasagne and my husband a beef burger. We tried a new drink each, a Welsh lager which was very good and a pineapple cider. The food was good quality and the service friendly and efficient.

Should have made for a great afternoon - as the beer, cider and spirit selection is superb.
A frosty atmosphere would be an understatement . Was it because we weren’t local? Or came as a family?
Ashame! But should either advertise itself as a place for locals wanting a quiet pint, or follow the lead of the majority of the UKs microbreweries and be welcoming to all.
Judging from past reviews, I await the response from the proprietors with bated breath… In the meantime, we we’ve gone over the road for a welcoming pint.

Went in just for takeaway drinks, staff not very pleasant didn't even acknowledge me stood at bar and made me think they didn't deserve my business. Doesn't take much to smile and be thankful to customers.

Brilliant little place lots of choice, knowledgeable staff and possibly the most addictive and well presented home made pickled eggs. Highly recommended. We have loved the place.
