My partner and I came here for dinner and it was such a lovely spot. From the ambience, to the history of the building and of course, the delicious food! The staff were so friendly and welcoming from the second we stepped foot through the door. The meat from the lamb shank just fell off the bone and melted in your mouth and the chocolate fondant was baked to perfection! Would highly recommend this place to anyone in the Dolgellau area!

Very lovely to be able to sit outside on a hot evening - you could be in Europe! The food was really good, everyone at the table was happy with their meal although we did all agree it was *slightly* on the pricy side. My steak was cooked exactly how it to be (not always guaranteed in some places) and the sauce was delicious - very savoury and moreish. Chips were crispy and salty. The service was on the slower side because they were so busy but the waitress who served us was very nice and helpful. The wine selection Was very good too. Those of us who had dessert really enjoyed. I’d definitely come back here again.

Excellent wine menu and all local gins and beers clearly marked, as well as vegan options which were not extensive but were very good and clearly prepared with care. The lamb shank was a particular hit. Side salad was very small but the lettuce and tomato were very tasty. Very friendly, welcoming and efficient service. Dog friendly and a warm vibe for all.

There now - fabulous service & fabulous food - steak & lame worth every penny Lovely setting too !! 5🌟

Lovely selection of food, staff very welcoming, and downstairs area had a lovely atmosphere. We all enjoyed our choice of meal. We're impressed with how dog friendly it was too- a big plus when on a family holiday with our dog.

The thing about vegetarians is we absolutely love, well - vegetables. The clue is in the name. I immediately liked the vibe of this place and the service and atmosphere were great. My friends all had excellent, meaty dishes complemented with broccoli, carrot and potatoes. After three days eating pub grub I had a hankering for some pasta; looking forward to some delicately flavoured dish accompanied by vegetables and/or salad - however, it came with chips and garlic bread! I dutifully carb loaded and ruminated on my decision many, many years ago to be vegetarian for the good of my health. Anyway - nice place, highly recommended.

I’m an Iranian visiting this city for travel, and I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant. I was truly impressed by the delicious food and the respectful, kind behavior of the staff. In my opinion, their duck dish was absolutely exceptional — one of the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommended

Great that the food is locally sourced and fresh - would have loved to have felt they had put more thought into it, presentation and flavour wise. None the less, it was fine. The history of the building is super interesting and the cafe is cosy. Coffee was lovely!
