Bee Inn in Conwy

Spot on Sunday lunch with all the trimmings excellent (especially the creamed leeks). My chicken was very tender and tasty, Dad's beef was succulent. Very friendly staff too. Highly recommended.

Came to review the Bee and found that all I could do was to pretty much duplicate a previous review. We too had the beef and the lamb, we too thought the vegeatables were exceptional - especially the leeks in cream sauce. The atmosphere was relaxed & the staff were great. We will definitely be eating here again.

Called in on a Wednesday which is pizza night Absolutely lovely Would recommend to call in if you’re ever in the area Really friendly people, good food, good drinks what more could you want

The bee is very welcoming and the land lord and land lady are very welcoming, The food is outstanding with a lot work put in to it. I will definitely go back again.

Great real community pub for all, warm welcome as a tourist (although I am Welsh by birth) seriously a genuine welcome and great service. Local beer, good wine / drinks choices and a great handmade pizza (Pizza / Quiz night) …. Staying locally in a cottage so back Friday for some Fish of course (Fry Day). Dog friendly too, thank you…

Called at lunchtime today, St. Patrick's Day and sampled an excellent Guinness. We ordered a couple of Welsh Lamb roast dinners and they were delicious. An inviting Inn with fantastic service. Dog friendly, private car park to the rear. Open log fire 🔥.

Myself, the missus and our son went to The Bee in Eglwysbach for Sunday Lunch as we were told the new owners were doing a great job with the place and we weren’t disappointed. A lovely welcome from Nia & Tom who have transformed the place. The Lunch itself was excellent, Lamb was cooked beautifully as was everything that came with it. Even my lad finished his off which is a rarity as he’s a bit of a fussy eater! Reasonably priced food and drink. I will definitely return as I hear the pizza/quiz night on Wednesdays are the go-to event in the village! Have to give that a go!

Fantastic, fresh food. Great quality and really good value. Beer also really nice! Lovely hosts. We will definitely be returning on a regular basis.

Found this on tripadvisor so decided to book for Sunday lunch The place itself is just perfect,nice and homely with a very vibrant local atmosphere and was full all the time we were there We ordered the beef and the lamb and it came with fantastic roast and mash potatoes, broccoli,carrots ,peas and a fantastic leeks in sauce plus the big Yorkshire pudding Wow ,quality and taste was outstanding,we both have it 10 👍 Then we both had a sweet ,mine was sticky toffee pudding with ice cream and my better half had chocolate brownie with ice cream..again absolutely gorgeous We came a long way to sample and we would do so again in a heartbeat Place ,staff ,food , service was brilliant Thank you ...and please you must visit this absolute gem

We went here twice on our holiday, once for Sunday lunch and once for the pizza and pub quiz on a Wednesday. Both were excellent, the staff are amazing and it was a lovely mix of locals and visitors. Can't recommend it enough.

A traditional Sunday lunch in a traditional village pub. Six of us visited to celebrate an 80th birthday. The hosts added a lovely ‘happy birthday’ sign to the table and service was polite and friendly. Starters were baked brie, mushroom and Stilton bake and mushroom soup. All delicious. We had a mixture of beef, lamb and chicken for mains - all served with roast and mash potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and veg. Great gravy and lovely tender meat. If I’m being picky I would say the portions were a little on the small side, especially the chicken, but we would prefer to eat every scrap of good food than a giant plate of average grub. A chocolate fudge cake and a couple of scoops of ice cream were enough for those needing dessert. Price very reasonable and huge thanks to the honest waiter who realised we had left a credit card behind. Much appreciated. There’s not a lot of choice in the area, so thank goodness this place does a cracking Sunday roast! Recommended.

We were staying near by and booked in for Sunday lunch and I have dietary needs and it was no problem. It was lovely. We wish them all the very best in their new venture

Hi mark Nice fish and chips mushy peas plus curry sauce nice and my pudding see you in February 23 mick and Chris

Having been the manager then moved away i returned to The Bee Inn only to find a Diamond that had been polished, i now live in México but if ever i return to North Wales i will look forward to visiting the special little pub in the special Village Eglwysbach

Best pizzas in the area! Would highly recommend for their pizzas on a Wednesday evening. Lovely little pub, with a good selection of pizza choices. Always good service

Stopped off here as I staggered along the North Wales Pilgrims Trail. I was a little late but staff were flexible and served up a delicious Sunday lunch...chicken with the trimmings. Several pints of cider and beer quenched a raging thirst. Staff were really helpful and chatty. After walking around 100 miles over a week I can confirm many villages have lost their pubs. It's such a delight to wander into a village to fund one that is open. My thanks to the staff. A real find.

The best Pizza on the globe every Wednesday night! Always a bonus when you can wash it down with the finest local nectar produced just down the road in Wild Horse (Llandudno)

Friends recommended this country pub. Wednesday is pizza night. Wood fired deliciousness. We'll definitely return.

Good pizza selection. I had the spinach, olive and tomato pizza option. Green salad and chips were extras. Lovely. The Beachcomber ale was on point and very fresh.

The best roast dinner we have ever had it was lovely. the staff were very friendly. Definitely be back again soon. Thank you

I went to a Hen Do on Saturday which Mark & his team where the bar for. They came to the house with all the stuff & they were fantastic!! Nothing was too much to ask & my hand was never empty from a drink. Would highly recommend to hire for other events!

Friendly village local with good beer and on Wednesday nights excellent thin crust pizzas with a choice of toppings and side dishes. An enjoyable evening.

A fantastic country pub with a VERY warm welcome and friendly atmosphere. Food is superb Pizza night on Wednesday is excellent but booking is essential!

Really friendly pub with good tasty wholesome food. Dog friendly outside. Puddings were especially appetising.

Great food, very friendly. Would go again. We were there on holliday, nice are at the back for you and your dog

Saturday evening curry with Kerry as the cook. Delightful.The pudding was tremendous. Nice warm fire on a freezing night.

Visited for a booked Sunday lunch with friends. Arrived around midday and all tables (including ours) had reserved signs. This is a very popular venue frequented by regulars so I would recommend booking in advance. Three courses of extremely good food for £18 - bargain!...

Had a superb meal this evening - could not fault anything. Friendly staff who were happy to give guidance on amount of food to order for our party. Excellent, varied selection, all beautifully cooked and presented; even managed desserts following a suitable rest! Would definitely...

Llamamos a última hora de la tarde del jueves antes de festivos reservar una comida. Pedimos consejo sobre donde, cerca, pudimos aparcar nuestro pequeño por la noche partí hacia, ya que había fallado en encontrar un camping con vacantes cerca de Bodnant, que estábamos visitando el viernes. El propietario nos permitió estar en su aparcamiento, que era muy amable y nos acepta la oferta. Estoy tan contenta de haber encontrado este precioso pueblo Carvery Roast", ya que la comida era deliciosa. El menú era variado e interesante, y la comida estaba cocinada a la perfección. Mi marido era raro bistec cocinado a la perfección mientras yo tenía un pescado mornay. El servicio era excelente y el personal es muy amable y servicial. Sin duda volveremos a visitar.

El pub estaba abierto mañana tarde para ofrecer bebidas y pasteles galeses a aproximadamente 100 personas en ruta a una boda en una aldea contigua. En la tarde el pub me ayudó a dar un desayuno de boda en el hall de pueblo contiguo. Hay un montón de personal entusiasta, educado y alegre joven redactados en todo funcionó bien hasta que que el evento tenga un gran éxito. El ambiente del pub en sí, y otras críticas en tripadvisor, claro que sería bien vale la pena visitarlo!

Almuerzo de Domingo es absolutamente deliciosa, excelente relación calidad-precio, buenas porciones. Me encantaría probar su pizza y concurso noche (Miércoles) y sus pequeños platos de noche (viernes), volveré :)

Lovely Gastropub a short drive from Llandudlno, Betwys-y-Coed and Conway, in the lovely quiet village of Eglwysbach. My wife and I were celebrating and staying nearby, so we ate there on a Saturday night. My wife had a beetroot pate and I had belly pork with a Japanese-style sauce. I'm not a beetroot fan, but she loved it and my belly pork was cooked to a crispy perfection. We both went for a rack of lamb from the specials board, which they told us is going to be on the main menu from now on. Cooked rare, it melted in the mouth and had use chewing on the bones. Cheeseboard for me and cake for her were both excellent. Wine list was very reasonable and we had a great Rioja. Very friendly staff and lovely warm and beautifully designed interior, it was a total delight.

First visit to this Family Run Pub and Restaurant. Great atmosphere with mixture of locals and visitors. Very help full and friendly staff. Each night has a special`s theme.Nothing was too much trouble. Food and quantity excellent. Booking advised as there is only seven tables.

First visit - we had been out to Bodnant to see their winter garden and were looking for lunch. Made to feel really welcome the moment we walked in. The food was delicious - lovely home made soup and an open sandwich, tasty and beautifully presented. 10 * customer service too. They are so welcoming - wide variety of ages of customers and many clearly are regulars who know a good thing when the find it. Will definitely be going back again. They have a range of events - steak nights/pie nights/ curry nights etc. All looked very tempting.

Very friendly staff, very helpful. We went on wednesday evening which turned out to be pizza night. Could not be faulted at all. The chips were great, they even offered to box up whar we couldnt eat to take home. I would highly dRecommend a visit.

Ein absoluter Geheimtipp. Regionale Küche, liebevoll zusammengestellte Karte, familiäre Atmosphäre. Kleine, feine Weinauswahl, gepflegte Cider und Biere. Das Essen ist mehr aus ausgezeichnet und dafür beinahe unverschämt günstig. Unbedingt reservieren!

We were just passing and decided to pop in for something to eat and we were not disappointed. The décor is very homely and warm. The service is very good. The burger was lovely and had plenty of handmade chips on the side. The food was very reasonable priced. Also good selection of real ales. I visited early September

Had a very nice meal out with my son and his wife they had steak and I had the chicken we all enjoyed the meals but there was a long wait between the starter and the main meal , but enjoyed the real ale while waiting

Had a very nice meal while out with my wife and my son and his wife they all had steak and I had the chicken all enjoyed the meal , but they was a long wait between the starter and main meal , but it had compensation as I could drink more of there excellent real ale

What a lovely little place, very quaint and homely and a superb Sunday lunch. As soon as we went in we were welcomed by a lovely girl at the bar. She showed us to our table, explained the menu and promptly served our drinks. Every thing about our lunch at The Bee today was spot on. I had the warm Brie to start which was good and hubby had the belly pork with Hoi Sin and sesame seeds which was absolutely delicious and a very fair sized portion. For main we both had the rare sirloin of beef which literally melted in your mouth, and was served with three different potatoes and a good selection of veg. Everything was nice and hot and the service was warm and friendly. I couldn't manage a dessert but Hubby had the warm chocolate fudge cake with ice cream, which was presented beautifully. We would highly recommend a visit to this lovely little pub and we will certainly be going back.

Service was excellent and helpful . We visited with our elderly parents in two wheelchairs . Staff were very welcoming . Great choice and super blackboard specials. Sea bass was excellent , beautifully grilled with yummy potatoes and nice balsamic salad. Apple and peach crumble with tasty custard was excellent.

Stopped off here for a lunch during a walk. Lovely ambience, friendly staff, good food. Even delightful fellow customers. They obviously have a different range of dining experiences on different evenings of the week. Would warmly recommend it.

Couldn't fault the food. Very welcoming place with excellent service. A fantastic start to the year and all of us would definitely recommend and return.

This place was recommended by someone as a nice place for lunch near Llandudno. What a find! We had steak pie and Lasagne, both really nice. Excellent deserts to follow. Quite a small pub with several real ales on tap, nice cosy feel and very friendly, welcoming staff. This was a birthday meal for my mother and she really enjoyed it.About £65 for 3 inc drinks. Loads of parking available in their own car park. Worth checking out if you are in the area.

Nice place to visit with a few friends when staying locally. Very friendly landlord who opened early for us. We went on Wednesday when they have pizza night. It's the first time I've had steak on a pizza and it was excellent! Will be visiting again

We lived in Eglwysbach 20 years ago and The Bee has certainly come up in the world. We've been twice in recent weeks and enjoyed the hospitality and cooking on both Friday Tapas and Thursday Pie nights. The meat eaters in our family couldn't fault the steak pies we had but the fisherman's pie proved a disappointment, needing to be returned. We noticed it was subsequently taken off the menu. However we will certainly be back to try again.

A lovely lunch and a good portion. Friendly atmosphere and great service. Would recommend this pub although there were bees landing on our food!

Because we stayed in a Holliday cottage in Eglwysbach and because of the excellent reviews, we decided to eat at Eglwysbach local pub on a Friday night. We suspected it to be busy but that was not the case. Not many eaters, locals at the bar, two somewhat shy tourists (us:)) choosing a table at the window and an even more shy teenage girl being our hostess for the night. Lovely light and cozy interior. Friday night is 'small plates night' like tapas. Apparently most of the nights are themed at The Bee. Wednesday is pizza night with a quiz which we missed unfortunately. Monday and Tuesday they are closed btw. To make a long story short, the food and ales were absolutely delicious and full of flavor. You can taste the ambition and talent of the chefs in their food and we loved it. Unfortunately though we missed dessert on the menu and felt (and were) a bit like outsiders in a lovely local pub for the local community.

Me and my wife had an excellent Sunday roast here with very helpful and jolly staff attending. The home made Yorkshire puddings were to my wife likings as she hails from York, although I'm local to the area. Will certainly be coming again to The Bee to try some other foods off the menu, but next time we will make sure that we book a bit earlier for a table. Thanks.

Went with my Girlfriend and her family after her parents had a great evening the week before and insisted we went back. Had a wonderfully presented homemade evening meal with a selection of daily specials. The pub is intimate, warm and welcoming created by the staff who provided great service and stories. There is a sense of pride in the food and setting as the owner clearly enjoys what he does. Would recommend to couples and adult groups. Would go again, If only it was closer to where i live.

We booked after reading the Tripadvisor reviews. We went on what turned out to be "pie night" (last Thursday of the month) where we got a substantial appetizer, a selection of pie dishes - chicken, beef and ale, fish, etc. - with veg. followed by dessert. All for £15 per head. Good value and good food. Everyone was very friendly which made the whole experience very enjoyable. Need to book.

We visited during a week staying locally on holiday. Were initially disappointed when we realised we couldn't sample the menu and we'd came in on pizza Wednesday..but there was no need! The pizza are lovely with a great variety of toppings (strongly recommend the vegetarian) and the chips are to die for,its so easy to get a simple dish wrong but the Bee has it all and the friendly family team make this a can't miss visit. Thank you for our doggy bag and smiles Bee team,we'll certainly recommend you to anyone visiting the area.

Lovely pub, friendly atmosphere (staff and locals). Fabulous food, went for lunch, all tables booked for the evening...so you might want to consider booking.Just need to find a b&b for a return visit so we can try more of the ales on offer....

The Bee InnWhat a find! It was buzzing! A hive of activity! It was a honey of a place!We were staying locally,in an AirBnB,and found that the family also ran the Bee Inn, just down the road. So why not give it a try? We were so glad that we did. Friday night was "little plate" night, so we had lots of tastes, and shared everything, tapas style. Mark was slaving away behind the scenes, while his mum,Lynne ensured that the clientele were happy and comfortable. We think that other members of the family were working equally as hard, but hadn't been introduced, so could only guess.After thoroughly enjoying the ambience and the meal, we spotted a plaque over the mantle, stating that they had been awarded Gold award from the Welsh Tourist board.Richly deserved. Much luck in all your future endeavours, you all deserve it!Lynne and KeithWorcester

Came to the Bee inn for a family meal ,I had seabass ,it was delicious . Highly recommended,great atmosphere too.

Small but friendly pub with excellent food, good size portions, reasonable prices and nothing is too much trouble.

Been in the bee twice now and the transformation the smelly family have made to the place is unbelievable. The food is a mix between very good pub food and fine dining - the emphasis is on quality. The pork belly starter is one f the best starters I have had in years. This is coupled with good drink selection again quality and a friendly family based service. Rob and son Tom are excellent chefs and Lynn is a great front of house. Go and have a great experience. Overall value is excellent.

This was a chance visit having been disenchanted with the service somewhere else nearby we drove on to the next village - and what a treat we had! The welcome was warm and the food fantastic. The value for what we were served at our table was unbelievable. They served local real ale too and the locals had left a list of their favourite tipples along with their marks awarded out of 10 for each.. We also noticed the attention to detail the owner had gone to make his customers comfortable. Even down to having blankets available for those who found it cold in the outside tables. Here is a place which places customers first.. .

Quality food cooked to a high standard and prepared from scratch on the premises.The staff were very friendly and attentive and couldn't do enough to make you feel welcome. Good selection of local ales.

I have visited the bee inn several times recently and I have never been disappointed! The service is first class, the atmosphere is warm and freindly and the food is of an exceptionally high standard! Quality, locally sourced produce brought together to deliver excellent menus with a variety of dishes to cater for all tastes. I have just learnt that the bee inn has finally been given the credit it deserves by being voted the "Best pub to eat in" for the whole of Wales! A fantastic achievement and one that is well deserved for this family run establishment! Can't wait to go again!

My Husband booked a table at the Bee for St Valentines Night, the food was excellent, a great choice on the menue, we enjoyed our lovely evening, Donna and Sophie really looked after us, and when paying the bill we received two lovely Cup Cakes to bring home, so thoughtful.

We turned up on a Friday night with only our credit card ,no cash. Unfortunately they were not taking credit card transactions.We only had £2.70 cash and Tom the very helpful front of house young man gave us two glasses of lager for £2.70! Off we went back to llandudno junction and got some cash and returned! The small plate Friday menu was sold to us by Tom and we were so glad we returned. We had a big selection of dishes to share for only£20. All the dishes were perfectly cooked, the sweet potato fries were crispy and dry, no grease in site, the tartlet had beautiful pastry. We have eaten in lots of restaurants in chester and our neighbouring cities and we have never had better food or service Thank you Tom! .You must try this friendly little pub when you are visiting llandudno or Conwy.

My husband,daughter and myself called for an evening meal. We actually live just outside the village but our busy lives mean we rarely go into Eglwysbach itself. The Bee has changed hands many times during the 30-odd years we have lived here but this is the best incarnation yet! Delicious pizzas with interesting toppings (we had curried sausage and black pudding, chicken, chorizo and feta and Parma ham, mushroom and Stilton, all of which were delicious) we met up with friends we haven't seen in years and there was a quiz ( great fun but we didn't win!). We will certainly make the effort to go again.

Fantastic little country pub in beautiful country village. (Shhhhhh. don't tell everyone!!) Excellent value for money food with a varied menu. We have called for "pizza night" and also "Small Plates night" both very busy evenings. Both the staff and the locals are very welcoming. One of the last 'True' Village pubs remaining. Can't wait to go back and sit in front of that open fire on a windy, wet Sunday afternoon...

We were on holiday in Eglwysbach for 1 week. We ate at The Bee Inn. The owner is 'front of house' and his son is the chef.The food was excellent and adventurous. Fresh local ingredients The owner amiable and likable and spent time ensuring that his customers were happy.Eglwysbach is a very friendly village and a good centre for exploring N Wales.The Inn has been newly refurbished and have not been running the business for very long. The current opening times are Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is worth booking a table as it is becoming very popular.Please do visit and enjoy a meal there.Owner descriptionRecently refurbished pub in the village of Eglwysbach, in the heart of the Conwy Valley.
