The Fanny Talbot

This place is amazing!! Me and my partner went there to celebrate my birthday and our engagement and we couldn’t have been more impressed!! We were warmly welcomed as we entered by both the manager and waitress, wished a happy birthday, congratulated on our engagement, told of anecdotes of one of their engagements and just thoroughly well looked after. The service was 10/10, no notes!! And the food, omg incredible is an understatement. I wouldn’t call myself a connoisseur of fine food but dear god I’m going to try to be now because everything was just incredible. Seasoned and cooked to perfection we couldn’t have enjoyed the whole experience any more! Well done team!!!

We are staying in the Barmouth area for two weeks and we have dined here three times. The menu is outstanding and the food is beyond delicious. I have rarely had better food anywhere than I have here. Fine dining at its best and not overly expensive either and the food is worth every penny. The staff are also very friendly and also knowledgeable about the menu. There is also an excellent wine menu. Also a welcoming bar and outside area if you just want to have a drink. I can't recommend highly enough!

This is an excellent restaurant. The food is beautifully prepared and there is a well chosen wine list. The service is crisp and welcoming, the atmosphere is warm and the prices are very reasonable, considering the quality. It’s a really lovely place to have a meal. Top marks.

We had an issue with our booking which the lovely Sally sorted wonderfully and was here to greet us when we arrived. What an asset she is, lovely customer service. Our room (number one on ground floor) was beautiful, pristine & so comfy. Beautiful huge shower, fleecy towels, just lush. Lovely crisp linen on the comfy big bed, little kitchenette with all you need if you want to fix yourself food, but my advice is, don’t. Eat & the hotel and you won’t regret it

What a fabulous stay at The Fanny Talbot. The food just amazing, service wonderful and the room fabulous ( So very clean and spacious) |We recently stayed at a 3 Michelin star restaurant with rooms, and I have to be honest I preferred the food and room at The Fanny Talbot. |Thank you to everyone from the moment we arrived to leaving it was just perfect. |Just wanted to say a thank you to Sally at breakfast x the customer service here is outstanding. |I can totally recommend and we will be back.

A great restaurant for true foodies. Beautifully presented food, with expertly combined flavours. Portion sizes were perfect to enjoy multiple dishes. We had a 3-course lunch and enjoyed every bit of it. Professional service. The drinks selection was excellent too.

Stayed here last year and decided to return for a weekend break.|Love this hotel. It is a bit expensive but we like it.|The bed and pillows are so comfortable. I love the pillows so much, I made a note of the brand and ordered some when I got home! |We stayed in the only balcony room. There is no view but a little outdoor seating area.|There is a fridge, sink to wash up in, trees and coffee facilities, a tv and bathroom with shower.|The only thing that made me give this a 4 rating this year is the fact that the automatic blind on the roof window wouldn’t work properly so we were woke up really early each morning because of the light. It was reported to staff

We had a great experience at The Fanny Talbot. From the moment we stepped through the door, every member of staff made us feel welcome. There’s a warmth and friendliness to the team that makes the whole visit memorable—but a special mention must go to Savannah, attentiveness, infectious smile elevated the entire evening. The food was exceptional. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared, but it was the depth of flavour in the sauces that truly stood out—rich, balanced, and utterly delicious. It’s clear the kitchen team takes real pride in their craft. We left already thinking about our next visit. Thank you to everyone who made it such a special evening—we hope to return one day soon!
