Absolute brilliant pub. Pool, darts, juke box, quality cold pints and a superb atmosphere. Sadly had to catch the last train home or would have stayed all night. A proper boozer that you must visit.

Never again came in to buy a beer before the train, stood for nearly 10 minutes to get served while other people in the bar just came up and got served before me Mentioned to the barman who ignored me so left without buying anything Not good for a place trying to attract tourism or perhaps not, who knows

Great place to enjoy a beer while waiting for your train, they sell Purple Moose ales which are brewed in the town. Relaxed vibe, the station in is used not only by travellers but also by the locals. There is a pool table and dart board, there are toilets for customers.

Popped in to the Station Inn Cafe whilst waiting for the train. Immaculately clean and a warm welcome. Good variety of drinks and snack available at reasonable prices. The Bakewell slice is enormous and the Barabrith was very tasty and moist. Well worth a visit even if you are not there for the trains. Also opens in the evening as a pub so check it out day or night.

THE pub in Porthmadog to watch the football. Locals are really friendly and the staff are great and very accommodating. I wanted to watch the football which clashed with a Wales rugby game at the same time. The staff put the football on one TV for me and kept the rugby on the rest of the pub. Everyone was great. I'll return here to watch the football every time I visit Porthmadog.

In my most recent trip, I had a problem with the staff's degree of friendliness. Sadly, it appears that the staff personnel I spoke with lacked the friendliness and welcome attitude that one might anticipate in a service-oriented setting. This factor did have a discernible effect on the environment as a whole and my perception of the business. A more personable and welcoming personnel, in my opinion, would substantially improve the general customer experience.

Everyone here speaks Welsh, so don't be surprised if you're the only one not understanding what's going on. Also, spontaneous karaoke and darts tournaments may break out while you're there. They were not serving food of any kind while I was there; it was drinks only. They didn't like people bringing in food from outside, though. Beer selection is what you'd expect; two taps of Fosters, three kinds of Carling, a few ciders, and other decent stuff. Great cheap place to get a drink while waiting for a train or staying trackside for the night.

We went in here as the kids loved the trains but we should have only had a drink, they were charging restaurant prices for poor quality food, the pizza's were the frozen type over cooked on one side and the other meals were along a similar vein, no one in our party of 10 had a good thing to say about the food.

My wife and I called at The Station Inn while exploring Porthmadog. There are two bar rooms and you go onto the platform and back in to move from one to the other. There are a lot of cask beers here, plus one one keg (a local Purple Moose). The mostly male clientele seem like a family, effing and blinding to a football match shown on big screen TVs. The effing did not moderate when a woman / my wife was present. We probably won’t call here again.

May I first say that I have only ever written good reviews but I afraid to say that this pub is SO terrible that only a bad review will do. I'm guessing it is for locals only, so if you are a holidaymaker visiting the delightful Porthmadog, please go to ANY of the other welcoming pubs in the area, avoid this one like the plague! We walked in and not only were we made to feel unwelcome by the four men in there (no bar staff in sight) but actually felt quite scared and threatened, and this was in the afternoon, dread to think what it is like at closing time. We felt too uncomfortable to stay, but a quick glance before we hurried out seemed to show lager, certainly no ales, were only available. We scuttled off to the calm, civilised and welcoming Sportsman Hotel, phew! What a relief!
