Holland Arms Hotel Restaurant in Isle of Anglesey

Went here for a meal, can't fault it, the service was excellent and good home cooked food. Well priced too. Would return.

Lovely wee place, well kept, charming staff, and a pub underneath us, the music was on till about 10 30 but we didn't mind, room missing TV remote and pillow case inside out

Before I give any negatives I will say the Bed was comfy and the room spotless. However there was Zero Hot Water even after numerous visits to the Bar I ended up having to walk across the Hallway to use a Power Shower even though I had requested a Bath due to suffering from MS. Then I find there is no Remote Control to the TV even after an extensive search and yet another visit to a probably pissed off Barman I finally just gave up and decided to call it a night. This was a very reasonable place to stay but feel like I should have booked elsewhere and paid more as I will be leaving feeling completely underwhelmed by this whole experience. Also sadly none of the Heating came on during the night so woke up Freezing and not overall refreshed

Stayed on Saturday night.Old fashioned but clean and fresh. Had a meal in the evening,which was home cooked and lovely food. Ryan who served us was happy and charming, as were all the staff. Breakfast also very good.

Went for an evening meal after driving around looking for a decent place to eat. We were greeted by a young waiter, who was polite and friendly. We ordered fish and chips, and salmon pasta surprise. The food arrived after a short wait, and believe me it was a surprise. The battered fish was in two small pieces, the waiter explained that the chef gave an extra piece as it was small, it was served with 3 very thick battered onion rings, which when bitten into the onion had been cut so thick it was raw. The chips had been cooked more than once. The salmon pasta surprise looked totally inedible, which it was. It contained sliced mushrooms which were not cooked, a few bits of salmon , and coated in some sort of sauce, topped with a pile of parmesan cheese. The garlic bread was hard to bite into and must have been cooked in a microwave. There was a group playing pool, which the barman joined and the language was choice to say the least. We did not vomplain at the time as we felt uneasy being there.

We didn't use the hotel so I can't comment about the rooms but the food is nice and reasonably priced.

Just had drinks in pub with quick service and decent choice of ales I can drink compared to many nearby pubs this place is certainly a five star

Food was awful and the toilets did not conform to disability standards

Stopped off for lunch on the way back to Treaddur Bay from Halen mon. All four of us (2 adults, 2 teenage boys) enjoyed our meals, the fish pie was gorgeous, potato wedges (chips) were lovely and Burgers, gammon and steak perfectly cooked. Nice side salad with rocket instead of Lettuce (perfect for me!) and a very tasty Peppercorn gravy! Compliments to the Chef, we would highly recommend lunching here!

First bathroom not very good although 2nd bathroom was clean but no hot water in either room or sink

Really great place , welcomed us with our dogs , great beer

Good location to put yr head down for night before ferry next day. Very pleasant and helpful positive staff. Internally very worn and tired decor. Cheap Hotel feel and Decor dated. Would look for alternative option in future.. Staff willing and positive attitude hugely improved our experience.

We went here for Sunday lunch but was very busy so they had run out so I suggest getting there early for Sunday lunch. We went for the Welsh stew and apple pie for dessert. It was lovely and we found the staff very helpful and friendly. Really well priced as well. I would visit again for the carvery but would get there earlier.

Great food, a warm welcome had. Comfortable room, shared bathroom but no breakfast 😕

Sunday lunch was diabolical frozen mixed veg floating in water very little meat roast potatoes looked like little cubes hardly brown no Yorkshire pudding tiny portion.

The worst meal ever !! Service was just as awful as the food ! Sirloin Steak 😂 honestly no words can even begin to describe how bad it was. No apologies from the owner. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. It’s so bad it’s laughable

Avoid like the plague! Glasses were diry no ice. The tables were dirty and sticky. The food arrive and was of a very basis standard. I think the chef forgot to put tomatoes in the lasagne, very bland with poor quality mince. The hunters chicken was as dry as sand. Never again, we tried to support local businesses but when you pay £50.00 for 3 meals and all you are served is basic cheap cafe style food. Never again!

We went to the new look restaurant for a meal and were very pleased. I had gammon, two eggs and freshly cooked chips from the specials board and my husband had chicken Tikka wrap with salad, he was asked if he wanted chips and said he would, however when he got he wrap he didn't get the chips but we weren't charged for them so he did without. We would definitely go again.

After hearing it was under new management I thought I’d attempt to visit again. Now I wish I hadn’t botherd. It’s Deffinetly a pub for the locals and not for visitors. As soon as we parkedup we were greeted by awful stares from those smoking right outside the entrance... upon entering the pub we waited a good whole before we were even acknowledged to be rudley told they weren’t serving food. They didn’t even ask if we wanted any drinks instead... customer service wasn’t awful and we felt totally unwanted likewe had walked into a private party. Will Deffinetly not be returning

I was always told to start any report with a "positive" so here it is: The staff were friendly. They smiled at us and exchanged pleasantries as we entered the pub, chose our table and sat down. Having said that though, our experience of eating here was at best "grim"! Four of us went for an evening meal and our first impression as we walked into the place was that it was cold, barren and completely cheerless. It was a chilly evening but there was no heating on nor was the fire lit (It wasn't even laid - the grate was just full of old ashes and litter. However, we decided to give it a whirl thinking that the staff would get the hint and organise some sort of heating if we sat huddled up in our outdoor coats for long enough. Wrong! We were left to shiver! The menu seemed ordinary enough - the usual pub grub at prices just slightly above the norm but not extortionate. Anyway we'd travelled a fair way and were tired so we ordered our meals (1 steak, 2 cod & chips & 1 surf & turf). Yuk! The surf & turf was swimming in grease, the steak was 70% grizzle & the fish inside the batter was a very strange grey colour. Definitely not a dining experience we'd ever want to repeat. This is the only pub in the area and must surely enjoy a fair amount of tourist trade. With a bit more effort to brighten (and warm) up the sitting area (and possibly a different chef) it could surely develop a reputation as a great place to eat and drink in that part of Anglesey. Get your act together Holland Arms.

After watching the football we decided to go for a quick pint here .... at first all seemed good. Nice looking place, until I got served my pint (that can only be described as cat piss). We put two 50p coins down on the pool table to reserve a couple of games of pool but the local drunk didn’t like this as apparently it was “his” pool table and he decided who played in it. Eventually, after managing to inhale two mouthfuls of the cat piss we decided to leave ... but as we went to take out two 50p coins from the pool table that we had previously left there .... the local drunk decided that because they had been on the table longer than 5 minutes he owned them. Safe to say myself, friends or anyone else I know will not be returning. Chow.

We were staying in a holiday cottage in the next village so tried here for something to eat. The landlord couldn't of been more friendly & helpful. He let me change around the veggie menu. The food was fantastic it was piping hot & freshly cooked. Oh & the Dragon fire bitter was the best bitter I've ever tasted. Also the pub is dog friendly which is a rare find in this area I found.

If you are looking for a great Homecooked meal you need to try this place out! The food was delicious and you got great value for your money! The portions where large and very satisfying!

Only ate here 4 times but thoroughly enjoyed every meal during my stay at the hotel. Burgers were freshly prepared every evening and were amazing with loads of great Welsh cheddar propping off them, the chilli I had one evening was delicious too. On the 2 occasions I had a Sunday roast, I couldn't fault it, enough to choke a horse and the pork and beef roasts I had were very tender and succulent. The staff service was excellent and very attentive and above all the value for money was second to known. Thank you

Disappointed with overall experience. Won't be eating there again - needs to go back to basics to improve the experience. Interesting menu on the black board but seems no one is eating there. Important to develop a local reputation.

Usually come here for a carvery on a Sunday with my man as we know we always have a nice meal. Well.....I'm not sure if the place has changed hands but we had a shock. They were stingy with the meat for a start. The turkey was drier than an Arabs fart, the beef was more beef jerky! Roast potatoes would have been nice if you had them last week...even Aunt Bessie's could give them a run for their money. No stuffing....so be prepared to take your own. No apple sauce to moisten my pork. The peas were so hard if you flicked them you could have someone's eye out. The yorkshire pudding couldnt decide whether it was a yorkshire or a pancake. Good to see they cater for babies....root mash was pureed especially for them. For added insult they've put their prices up. Fair play the coke was spot on!!

Been there a few times and the food was very good then a new chef came there and the food went down hill if the english chef is there you are in for a good meal but forget it if the foreign chef is there.

i have used the holland arms on a sunday to go for lunch whenu are on your own and dont feel like cooking its a good place to go the food is not to dear and its hot.

Out for a meal on a sat evening as we were passing the holland decided to give it a try not many in but ordered anyway good selection on the special board and also on the menu,food was very good with home cooked chips very reasonably priced ,staff very pleasant and helpful.

We have eaten here on a number of occasions.The food is good if not spectacular; a varied menu reasonably priced that makes good use of local produce. There is a lovely garden to the rear of the hotel that could be spectacular with a bit of tlc and the beer is always reliable. Unlike many other resteraunts in the area the Holland Arms is open 7 days a week all year round...we will be back

Since moving to anglesey ive loved this restaurant totally they serve excellent food,service sundays dinners are to die for excellent staff chefs are amazing

Been a few times now... Great dinner... The Sunday carvery looks good and it very much tastes good.Good service... Excellent value. Would recommend it to anyone wanting a great Sunday roast.

Hear the carvery here was meant to be good so gave it a go. Sadly it wasn't the case. All the meat was very dry beef pork and turkey! Don't know what they had done to the gravy but it tasted like vinegar and because it was all over the food it spoilt it all!! And brown cabbage?? Won't be back in a hurry!

We visited as a family who have on numerous occasions visited this hotel, we were hover disappointed at first at the very Small menu and minimal choices, however the food in which we did end up ordering was of a very high quality and absolutely delicious. It was a shame that there was no pineapple only (pineapple chutney) with the gammon & no peas only a leafy salad, the kids goujons could have been cooked slightly less but the gammon its self, the burger, the homemade chips, the pan fried duck & the pork fillet were delicious.We will be visiting again.

Whilst visiting my wife's family on Anglesey 4 of us went for a meal at the Holland Arms. My brother in law had the gammon as did I, both of us were extremely pleased, delicious! However my wife and her sister both had the vegetarian lasagne and we're both very disappointed. The lasagne was very dry and tasteless and the garlic bread only just warm. The salad was OK. A comment was made to the waitress who apologised. Shame if you need to be careful what you order.

Good range of menu which should meet most appetites.Attentive staff and food served quickly.Location is very convernient just off A55 past Gaerwen .

we had the chicken penache and the cod and chips,the meal was delicious cooked to perfection by kai,also excellent service off danny the barmaid. would recomend this lovely pub to anyone thinking of dining here.

We didn't know anything about the Holland Arms, we were just driving through looking to find somewhere to eat.. but wow! what a fantastic find!The food was absolutely outstanding, the home cooked chips to die for!We also had to ask about gluten free food,, and the lady was very helpful and gave us a list of the foods that wouldn't have been suitable. The steak was wonderful, as was the chicken breast stuffed with smoked salmon in a creamy mushroom sauce.. my mouth is watering just thinking about it now!We are so glad that we found the Holland Arms, we would 100% recommend,and look forward to eating here again!!All in all 5* quality food at very reasonable pub prices.. highly delighted thank you!

Good food and good friendly service, we have been to this venue a few times and the food is pretty good

We dined as large group of 19 this evening, with ages ranging from 13 to 50+. Everyone enjoyed their food with comments such as 'the best sticky toffee pudding ever' and 'fantastic'. The service was excellent with very friendly and attentive staff. It is fair to say that the food was of restaurant quality but at affordable prices. We will definitely visit again. Highly recommended.

After having a bad experience with the last proprietors we thought we would give it another try. We were not disappointed, we chose the open ham sandwich with side salad, chips etc. which was first class and reasonably priced. The waiter who looked after us was very pleasant and helpful. We would not hesitate to recommend to anyone and would definitely visit again.

We live local to this pub and we can highly recommend the food there. The staff are very nice and helpful. Thank you chef you do a lovely job.

Called in for lunch today. Had the best pub meal I've ever had....spinach and goats cheese pie with gorgeous home made chips. Nothing was too much trouble for the waitress. Fab food, pleasantly priced. Parents had a Sunday carvery a few weeks ago and highly recommend that also. Definitely worth a visit. We'll be calling in again soon

went there today for a family meal and we weren't disappointed apart from the fact we were too late for the carvery. The food was excellent, freshly prepared and to a very high quality. The waitress was very friendly and helpful and very attentive. Will definitely be paying them another visit very soon. And to top it all very reasonably priced.

Outstanding quality Sunday carvery, have got nothing but praise for the tasty Sunday carvery we always get when we visit. Well worth travelling a little further than where we used to go as the food is so good. Will be back soon.

We called in late on a Sunday afternoon having been to the wonderful Newborough Beach and not fancying cooking back at the caravan. We chose off the specials menu and as it was quiet,our food(home made steak and ale pie and a sirloin steak) came to us quite quickly which we weren't complaining about as we'd worked up an appetite. You could tell the chef cared about his food,it was well presented,plentiful and really tasty.It was great to get a decent,well cooked dish of veg as well,four different veg too.Thoroughly enjoyed the food,just a shame there was no real ambience because of the lack of people,and a bit of background music might have helped with that.No problems with the food though and would recommend.Good choice of beers too.

Can't fault the place, decent food, nice staff, pleasant evening, and a lovely landlady. I'd go back, in fact I did, twice, and its kinda becoming a local for me. Recommended!

We ate here twice, evening and lunchtime, we were impressed on our first visit last year when the chef devised a special meal for me. The standard of food ontinues to be very good with an interesting and unusual dinner menu. An unexceptional establishment which deserves more support because of the food, god bar and waitress service and excellent C>W. Lees draught bitter.

Stop there for lunch with my friend for starters we both have the pâté lovely, and for the main we have the belly pork which was absolutely to die for. Would recommend this place for family or just friends on an afternoon out

Family lunch lovely food hot and plenty of it, just like being at home, but without the hassle and the hot kitchen and of course the washing up. Thank you. Will be back

totally ridicilous!! had to wait yn hour for my starter, two hours for the main meal - and after waiting two hours we had 3 wrong meals. would not recommend here to nobody if you want to be home before dawn!!!

We had booked 2 nights in the hotel but the food was the highlight. Evening meal time busy with the locals as they must know its very good. Shame the breadfast wasnt of the same standard.

We have been here a few times now for Sunday Lunch. I must say the choice of meat and veg is brilliant. We really enjoy our meals here each time and it's quite reasonable too.

The food in this place was great worth every penny, I past this place and booked it without going in and it didn't disappoint, there were four of us and we all agreed the food was great.

Still wondering why my assessment had been so different from ones made by previous diners, I returned the following evening with two family members, and, together, we explored a wider range of menu items. The special menu offered up another splendid, tasty dish, while the standard 'British' fare was perfectly cooked and well presented. And there was a range of non-meat items from which a very tasty selection was made. No fluke! This restaurant is clearly 'On the Up!'

An adventurous menu, mainly for carnivores. A bit slow arriving at the table, but worth the wait. Family-friendly ambience. Decent decor. Much better than previous reviewers' assessments. Clearly improving.

We went here before Christmas for a friends Christening. The place has been done up quite nice from what it used to be, but that's the best I can say about our experience to be honest.We had a buffet which was just your standard buffet food, nothing to shout home about and sandwiches a bit dry for my liking, so I didn't have much. But the worst thing by far, they were served on disposable paper plates!!! Not exactly what I'd call classy or appropriate. This definitely spoilt the occasion a bit.The chef was then caught red handed helping himself to a huge piece of our friends delicious brought in Christening cake. What a cheek! He must have been hungry and not fancy his own food!Still, we thought a drink would go down better. Afraid not. The beer was not very good, but worse still was the price. Nearly £9 for a pint of lager and a bottle of fruit cider!!!Such a shame, we really felt for our friends who chose this place and put a slight downer on their special day.Would not recommend the buffet here for any special occasion, and at those expensive prices we won't be stopping for a drink again either.

Visited the Holland Arms few years ago and the food and the cleanliness of the place wasn't very good. After reading a few reviews on here me and my family decided to give the place another try. Walking in the Holland Arms you could tell that it was very clean and that the new owners had done well in tidying the place up, but this is as far as my good comments go! We were a family of 4 and wanting to sit down for a meal. We approached the bar to order some drinks, the lad behind the bar had no customer service skills what so ever! There was no can I help you? Good evening! Or hello, what can I get you? Absolutely disgusting. We did order some drinks and my dad did try to make conversation with the bar men but yet fails to make polite conversation with my dad. Yet again very disgusted. When asking if we could order food we got a one word reply, YEP! We were not showed a table or even given menu's. The lad behind the bar was more interested in who was texting him and what was on the tv than his customers that wanted serving. We didn't end up ordering food we finished our drinks and left after having such bad customer service.
