Starvation Bar & Kitchen in Isle of Anglesey

Cool little venue, went a couple of times when live music was on - nice fun atmosphere. Would be even better if they sold hot snacks too.

Poor hygiene and unmotivated staff. Tables were dirty despite it not being busy. Soap dispenser in toilets empty and bins overflowing. Staff just stood around chatting and looking at their phones.

Went into starvation on Friday night and it had a fab atmosphere with live music and due to the amount of workers we were never waiting more than two minutes for a drink! We ended up going back on the Saturday to watch the match too. Will definitely be going again the next time we are there!

No food as no Chef. Looked like a nice place for a drink, same no food. Will go back with my wife only for a few. Missing a trick with no food.

So. I noticed on website closes at 5pm on a sunday. I telephoned them to book for 5pm. I was informed that thete is no booking but if i arrived at 4.30 then i would be served. I arrived st 4.30 and was told only drinks available as they have been quiet... Is it anyvwinder with this level of service.. Absolutely appalling in my book!!

Friendly welcome and quite a few people in for a Sunday evening. It turned out to be a quick drink when loud music was suddenly turned on and blared through the bar. We were the second last table to leave. Not sure why they did it; it cleared the bar.

What an atmosphere the staff create in this locally run bar and cafe. The staff create a happy buzzing at atmosphere whether the bar is full with everyone watching the Rugby World Cup or taking part in a Bavarian Oktoberfest evening, or even on a quiet mid week evening. Each time we visited in the last week we had a lovely welcome and thoroughly enjoyed the buzz - and we’re in our youthful 60’s.

Ok but could triple their bar takings if they had more than the one bar staff been run ragged trying to do cocktails, coffee , beer! Thankful the draught beetle barrels didn’t need changing . Owners get a grip and triple your takings , goes without saying we will be going ‘ across the road ‘ the rest of the week.

We called in for drinks two nights running and can highly recommend this great bar. Lovely friendly atmosphere and great staff.

Great bar, even better when they have live music. Fantastic atmosphere friendly bar staff. In my opinion the best bar in Rhosneigr

Visited for coffee with my elderly parents, after ordering I was totally ignored until my order was placed in front of me on the bar. For the price I paid I expected to have 3 hot coffees not 3 lukewarm ones. I did raise the point but I was just given a look of disgust. I will not be visiting again which is a shame because it is in a great spot to sit and watch the world go by

Live music nights are excellent. Cocktails are great and at a reasonable price. Definitely worth a visit when music is on.

The burgers here are most excellent, the cheesy fries delicious as is the crisp, on draft, Brooklyn lager. Dogs are made very welcome too.

Lovely bar, nice drinks - some of the staff need to remember even though they have a monopoly- rude behaviour still affects CUSTOMERS experience- Rhosneigr nice place, good job there are other places to drink that understand basic manners. Would have said something- but what’s the point!

We visited here on a Wednesday night, bought drinks and ordered 3 burgers. After waiting over an hour and a little confused watching several staff backwards and forwards between the bar and kitchen, we asked if we were still getting our food. It seemed both ours and the only other table that were waiting for food, had been caught up in a mix up between the bar and the kitchen and the chef had packed up and wasn't aware there were more food orders waiting. To be fair he offered to reopen the kitchen and make our burgers, but at this point we were beyond hunger and had planned to head to the beach to watch the sunset. Such a shame as on first impressions it appeared to be a cool bar and place to eat. Maybe if the 2 girls working on the bar 'taste testing' the whisky had paid a bit more attention to the customers and checked in on us they'd have remembered we were waiting for our food... Starvation in name and nature sadly.

Cracking bar on the Main Street that gets the sun till late on the front terrace Some good draft beers and good cocktails We had lunch on Saturday lunchtime and could not fault a thing The smashed burger and fries were spot on Highly recommended 👍

Arrived approx. 5 pm and asked to see menu. Only burgers available. Not a good start. Quite hungry so ordered something called --- Smashed beef patty with fries. We expected something better than undercooked oversalted soggy fries and a really awful beef burger oversalted and a revolting mustard flavour dressing. It is very simple meal, how can you not do better? Upon payment , I was asked if everything was ok. Really !! I was then requested to pay for an extra beer, until I pointed out the error. Never ever again.

Amazing bar, made to feel so welcome, very dog friendly, lovely vibe, been our go to bar for our whole stay

Popped in here for a pint to break up the afternoon,lovely atmosphere, friendly service and lovely setup,would definitely recommend

This place is in a nice location but had no real atmosphere and by eck, the coffees were expensive. Popped in for a hot drink whilst walking the dogs. The café opens up onto the pavement so was ideal for dogs wet out of the...

I’ve only had drinks here as food is only served at weekends so missed out this time. However it is a great bar to sit outside and watch the world go by. Great atmosphere and very dog friendly. Will hopefully sample the food next time..

Can’t fault the drinks, they were well made and delicious. The staff were efficient and helpful. Shame it was a Sunday as they only open 3 days a week so most food had run out. If had know that would have gone on Saturday as...

Brilliant food and brilliant beer supported by lovely staff and a chilled out vibe. A great place to grab a bite after some beach antics. Will 100% return, keep it up guys

Sat outside with the family, had a few drinks, staff were friendly, got served quickly. Nice bar, nice atmosphere. Will definitely return.

We called in a few times on our week away as it serves very good beer and cocktails We called in again on Friday as the kitchen was open to try their Lobster rolls and OMG how nice ? Really pleasant service, nice drinks and...

We stopped here while out for a walk, dog friendly. Limited snacks but we had toasted sandwiches and chips - all were good and pretty cheap. Seemed to serve pals who wondered by and nipped in for a takeaway before members of the public (but...

Stayed in Rhosneigr for a few days and visited Starvnation twice. Really nice food. Good value. Lovely friendly service. family and dog friendly. Would definitely recommend and on our next visit we’ll be back

We visited here a few times whilst on our holiday, the hospitality was great and Josh a brilliant host, and the “street food” was delicious, would definitely recommend this as a place to visit !

Visited here for a drink. It’s a great place with friendly staff. However the menu is now just a small selection of snacks. I was going to have the lobster roll but unfortunately food was only being offered at weekends. The website needs updating as...

We often come to Rosneigr as we have a massive 5 bedroom detached house here that we use as a holiday home. This place is brilliant as the staff are friendly and the drink and food menu is excellent. Very welcoming team behind the bar....

We regularly come to Rhosneigr as we have a holiday house here. We headed to Starvation after a rude reception from The Sandy Mount. Lovely, friendly place and staff with a great atmosphere. Really accommodating with food for our 5 year old Son. Will be...

Popped in on Saturday with the wife and dog. It was quiet. We had Guiness, cocktails and dog biscuits and the incredible cakes. The lady who runs the place is so friendly, really nice She brought a sausage for the dog and offered all kinds...

Had a lovely meal with my wife in this gem of a bar. My wife had a pizza topped with fresh and tasty ingredients with a side of crispy tasty onion rings. I had a soup for stater which was a real winter warmer, served...

Brilliant staff, Becky, Kyle p and Kyle, extremely welcoming, shame there was no food, but otherwise best place in the village

Amazing staff at an amazing little village. All three staff we met, 2 Kyles and a Becky were the most friendly out of all the places we visited. Perfect for all including one with 4 legs :-) We look forward to a visit again and...

What a wonderful place, wish we had found this earlier into our holiday. Very friendly, attentive staff and so reasonably priced.

Had a great experience here. The staff are really friendly and it’s reasonably priced. Dog friendly would definitely recommend

Went here as a group of 5 friends on a Friday night and had a fantastic time. The atmosphere was lively and friendly but not crammed. The live act was a very talented guy with guitar who did great covers. We tried several different cocktails...

We only had drinks in the Starvation - but they were lovely!! Very tasty Mojitos and a good selection of other cocktails available. The Manager (or I assume she was the Manager) was great! Good conversation and some fun banter! Diolch yn fawr - would...

Great little bar in the centre of the village Really good drinks including great cocktails Very friendly and efficient service Our little local for the week

Only serving drinks at the moment but have some fab cocktails on offer! Staff lovely and friendly and very accommodating with dogs.

Dropped in to watch England Euro semi final, good banter from the staff. Couldn't drink much as I was driving but welcomed and treated just the same as everyone else, staff very attentive and friendly.

Can’t fault this place lovely cocktails, no food this time, but so dog friendly with doggy snacks. Staff were lovely and so accommodating- will definitely go back and would definitely recommend porn star martinis and espresso martinis. Thank you for a lovely afternoon Karen&Nick and...

Best burger I've eaten for year's, very good indeed, the homemade chips and coleslaw was superb also, cocktails as a final flourish, splendid night out and made all the nicer by attentive friendly staff, bravo chef!!!

Nice vibe to the place and staff were very welcoming. Menu was simple but our burgers were well cooked and presented. Very dog friendly too. Beer were good and location fab. Thanks

Visited a few times during our week away Once for drinks and once for food Extremely friendly and efficient service even giving our 2 Springer Spaniels some doggy treats Would highly recommended It’s nice to sit outside if you are lucky enough to get a...

These were the best margaritas we’ve had, and we’ve had a few. Lovely place and really nice staff too.

Another excellent evening at Starvation. Last nights steak night was fab! Perfectly cooked steak, attentive front of house without being intrusive, felt very covid safe - very clean, lots of sanitiser one way system and socially distanced tables. Well done!

Popped in for a few beers and food. Burger was recommended and certainly lived up to expectations! Will be back 👍

Popped in here on Friday night on the off chance they might have a table free. We were lucky and managed to grab the last table available. We enjoyed nibbles and mains - we were too full for desserts - something that never usually happens!...

Me & the mrs stopped in for a quick drink and were greeted by friendly and helpful staff. Look forward to coming again!

We had an excellent evening and Catrin was incredible along with the rest of her team! Both the food and service were incredible - very friendly atmosphere and we will certainly be returning!

A family of 4 adults we called for cocktails while on holiday. We were the only customers so were surprised after waiting 10 mins that they were out of tequila, the order was then amended, only to be told a further 5 mins later that...

Passed this morning " closed for staff meeting". Guess customer service wasnt covered. Called in for a drink, dirty glasses on the bar whilst the staff ate behind the bar. Young girl looked like she would rather be anywhere else( could see as face mask...

Stopped in here for lunch, as it’s one of the few places that is open during the week for food (out of season) in Rhosneigr. Has the necessary COVID-19 restrictions that are required in the current environment and the seating is well spaced out. The...

Staff were very slow to take are order and when he did come to take went to a couple that came in after we arrive , luckly the lady mention that we were before them . The drinks arrive black tea , Coffee and I...

Stopped by for some drinks mid-week whilst staying in Rhosneigr. Service was friendly and the cocktails were great, the pornstar martini was a favourite!

This restaurant is ideally situated, being a short walk from the beach on the way back to the pay and display car park. We stopped for an early lunch of jacket potatoes with prawns in Marie rose sauce with side salad and hot chocolate. All...

Seriously disappointing lunch here today. Took best part of half an hour to receive an exceedingly small bowl of soup (a relief it was so small as it wasn't pleasant) and a bowl of frozen chips. At almost £7.00 for soup and a slice of...

We dropped in after a late afternoon beach walk. Staff were friendly and attentive. Food was very good. Great fish & chips and lasagne. Excellent coffees to follow. Everyone social distancing and good one way system in place.

This is the first time we had been here but would definitely recommend, the staff were very friendly and the bar is well set out with safety measures. The food was good

Called on for drinks with friends. Attentive front of house staff. As designated driver I was thrilled they had a non alcoholic cocktail menu. Elderflower fizz was excellent. Food looked good that was coming out of the kitchen. Really pleasant visit with stylish decor.

Spent a lovely couple of hours sat outside on Sunday afternoon The service was nice and friendly and as expected Covid wise they have an app which seems to work well We enjoyed a few nice beers and some lovely food Dog friendly which is...

Good things come to those who wait. I visited with my 2 children and our friends (family of 4 + dog). The staff were really pleasant and accommodating- we turned up bank holiday Sunday round 1pm after a morning on the beach and they fitted...

This is a small cafe near the beach which has a clean and lovely decor. We only had a pastry and a coffee which were nicely made. Staff were pleasant but the service was so slow it was painful to watch. For what we ordered...

Surprised to see some poor reviews as we had a good time here for lunch and drinks. Friendly service, relaxed atmosphere and a great location. They made a good effort at spacing their covers out too. We’d go back for sure..

Excellent choice for lunch. Brilliant service from the minute we walked in. Fish finger butties a real treat on a windy day. The service was excellent friendly helpful thank you 😊 so much

We ordered food and it took the best part of 30 to 40 minutes to come. Food was good when it came, but still too slow.

Without a doubt the worst place we have visited during our stay in rhsoneigr. Tesco value style food and all frozen. We didn’t even eat our meals and nobody came over to see if our food was ok. Rude service from the tall man with...

We really wanted to eat at Sandy Mount House but had missed the end of Lunch service. We popped over the road and they had tables free so we decided to eat there. Service was slow but when we finally ordered the 2 things we...

Had to go looking for someone to take my order after about 25-30 mins wait. Following that it took about another 40 mins for our food to arrive. We were laughing about how fitting the "Starvation" name is. The fish finger sandwich was missing tortilla...

Thank goodness it was eat out half price- Tesco value style bread was used and the cheapest fish fingers I’ve ever had. I gave it to my dog. I had to ask for tartar sauce as it was literally falling apart from cheapness of ingredients....

The staff are very welcoming. We just had a coffee and pastry but both were lovely. And Rhosneigr is a beautiful area.

We went in only for drinks, very warm and welcoming service from the tall waitress with blond hair, but the boy behind the bar was incredibly unprofessional. Hoping it was his first day.

Probably the worst service I’ve ever received well actually didn’t receive... Stood at the door waiting to be seated for 5 minutes and was totally ignored by 3 separate members of staff, instead they decided to wipe the bar, talk to each other and put...

After a failed attempt at the Sandy Mount House, I decided to try Starvation. As soon as I entered I was welcomed and shown to a seat. Good start, so I thought. The waitress said “I will be with you in 2 minutes.”...I sat at...

Family of 4 (x2 kids age 8 & 10) stopped for hot chocolates, mocha and coffee and brownies. Service was slow but only two staff on and they suddenly had an influx of customers (really wet and windy weather). Drinks were lovely and Brownies were...

Lacks any quirky style, lacks atmosphere (unless you like reality TV blaring from a huge screen at at breakfast time), has inattentive staff - and a boring menu. Hoping it was just “teething problems” - and have heard it’s got a better vibe in the...

The food here is lovely....loads too choose from. We have only ever been lunch times but never been disappointed. Staff are so helpful and very accommodating. We have always been made to feel very welcome and nothing is too much trouble. Dogs are very welcome...

I was in Rhosneigr for the weekend. I had an evening meal on the Friday and Sunday lunch on the Sunday. The menu choose was Valentine's - but we did not have to have all the courses so I opted for the fillet stake with...

I called in earlier on the day I wanted to eat to check the menu, I specifically asked if the whole menu would be available that evening, I was told it would be. Unfortunately when we arrived, we were handed a different menu, it was...

Lovely setting, friendly staff and really nice food. I had the pork belly to start which was very tasty, and the seafood linguine, which was stunning, if we lived closer this would definitely be my go to dish. Hubby and son thoroughly enjoyed their meals...

Could easily be a great craft beer and cocktail bar, however its more of a cafe bar. All day food not available. Menu not really interesting or adventitious. It does look clean, modern and new but offerings were a little disappointing. No parking

Been to starvation on two occasion this break all I can say is the service is excellent and tonight we have eaten there food and service was excellent ignore the bad reviews this place is great and the service is far better than some other...

Popped in for lunch and made to feel very welcome and looked after. We only had a quick sandwich but all very good, youngest daughter devoured her jacket potato - best compliment she gives! Can definitely recommend the local pale ale as well.

Great visit to the newly opened Starvation. Food was fabulous - particularly the sea bass. Staff friendly & welcoming. New decor tasteful (no more purple!) Heard open mic night was a great evening so will definitely be visiting again.

Came here for open mic last Sunday. Pretty good night one of the acts were really great and got the whole place going. Feel sorry for the staff though. Overheard staff members discussing poor management and owners doesn’t sound like a great place to work....

Lovely place in the heart of an amazing Village!!! Sandy’s was a place we loved and the new owners have done a great job and invested very well ! Love the Cocktails and the atmosphere is fantastic- thanks for a great night 👍

We visited for lunch last Saturday but with some hesitation after reading some scathing reviews. Well, either those reviews were unfairly negative or management have listened and made changes but we found young but friendly and helpful staff and we wee served delicious food of...

Food was lovely, portions very generous, very clean, staff very polite and friendly, would definitely return here

We are regulars in Rhosneigr & are always looking for new local places to try. Have to say, was very impressed. Menu was great, loads of choices that I am eager to try. There were 10 of, all the food we ordered was delicious, service...

lived in anglesey all our lives and our group of 8 persons all agreed that starvation has to be the worse dining experience we have had on our lovely island , bad unopened seafood served ,simple orders forgotten about ,looks nice but far from it...

Visited Starvation for dinner between Christmas and New Year. The revamp looks good - a great improvement on Sandy's both inside and out but needs a little more colour and a few finishing touches. The food was great, particularly the seabass, and good value overall....

We came for lunch at starvation last week. The revamp was really good. I had the steak and cheese ciabatta and my sister opted for the home made vegetable soup (very impressed). The waitress who served us was lovely and we were not disappointed with...

Visited this revamped place one lunchtime over Xmas and New Years week, I ordered the calamari, pulled pork in BBQ sauce and a portion of chips. Other members of our party of 4 adults ordered the sliders, a steak sandwich, calamari, halloumi with sweet chilli...

We didn’t actually eat or drink. We sat down, a little chilly, had to ask for menus, eventually they arrived. No luck with service and too many dissatisfied customers around us made us decide to leave along with others. This seemed to amuse the staff...

We are regulars to Rhosneigr and my first thoughts were positive as the old Sandys with purple walls was an eyesore on the High Street. The fit out is not bad but still needs work and I understand they have plans to keep improving. We...

We first ate at Starvation on their opening night and food and service were good Then visited for a late lunch just after Christmas -they definitely need someone in charge and waiting staff and kitchen staff who know what they are doing Slow service ,...

As an occasional day tripper to Rhosneigr and the surrounding area, I always looked forward to calling into Sandys for a drink and a bite to eat. Having not been since the summer as soon as I approached I saw that it had had a...

Visited last night with family. Good greeting and shown to a table...we asked to change to the room at the back. Modern decor just doesn’t absorb the noise..please add some fabric or acoustic panels.... We loved the food, all had different things all good. Service...
