Description: A community owned pub with a thoroughly Welsh ethos that'll give you a taste of what our country is really about. Our 200-year-old inn is a Grade II listed building situated in the picturesque village of Llanystumdwy near Criccieth. Plenty of spaces to sit outside and a wide range of drinks available to enjoy. We don't serve food at the moment. A small self-service shop outside the pub is open from 8am which is full of various products.

Came here for drinks with my partner. There was a comedy night on, and it was grotesque for the few minutes of it we heard. Full of sexually explicit humour. Explicit to the point of being deeply uncomfortable, and I'm far, far from a prude. I really don't need to hear a man recite the intimate details of some encounter like this, especially a week after Russell Brand. Especially as a woman, and even more as a gay woman, it felt awful.

Drinks were fine. Staff were friendly. Nice pub inside. The experience of the entertainment really soured me on this place, and I would have to recommend against anyone coming here if the people running it think that this kind of event was appropriate.

Big potential, ruined.

Management should have had at least some idea of the content of the acts.

Very unfriendly welcome. Won’t be recommending this pub not sure if they like the English or prefer Welsh only customers.

What a great pub !! Stepped into a slice of authentic Wales. The traditional vibes are genuine, and while Welsh is prominent, English speakers won't feel out of place. After our week-long stay in a nearby cottage, the friendly locals and staff had us feeling like we'd been there for years. A must-visit. Looking forward to our next trip !
