Stepping through the front door is like stepping back in time, old school with really friendly staff. Unfortunately limited drinks selection, however, absolutely worth a visit on a sunny day for the amazing beer garden that is a great place to sit with fantastic views.

Stopped in again today at the Penbryn Hotel after being in the mountains. My go to place in Llanfairfechan. Friendly welcoming staff, it's well worth a little walk up the hill, recommend.
