The Gladstone in Conwy

Visited on a Friday evening with Husband and two children. Food was reasonably priced, (fish and chips £10 on a Friday) lovely and all homemade, including the chicken nuggets. Jaffa cake Sundaes were lovely, although should come with a warning! They are huge and one is enough for at least two adults. Would've been nice to have a proper drinks menu with all the drinks they do. But overall great food and service, we will return.

We stayed one night was welcomed with a warm smile from Leonie. We was shown to our room by gavin who made us feel very welcome. Breakfast in the morning was fabulous cooked by Stephen. Would highly recommend very friendly hotel.

Three Star Rating as follows: 1 excellent beer (Salt Session). 2 friendly bar staff (female) 3 nice decor and toilets. Unable to comment on food as chef/manager (male) declined alfresco dining on a rare sunny and warm April afternoon during a cost of living crisis so business must be good 👍

Firstly I want to thank the amazing staff for all the hard work they put in to making your time here the most enjoyable it can be. If your expecting a 5 star hotel with all the trimmings this is not the hotel for you. However if your looking for a great value for money get away with great staff stunning food and the most dog friendly establishment I've ever been in I can highly recommend the gladstone. We have thoroughly enjoyed our time here and will definitely be back when in the area. Keep doing what you are doing as it ticks all the right boxes.

We have recently bought a caravan nearby and firstly nipped in for lunch on a Wednesday afternoon with my Mum and nephew and to be fair the food was good but the service from Gavin was excellent giving me some great local info. I then went back with my husband sister and bro in law for Sunday lunch. Whilst there was an issue with our lunch order Gavin dealt with it extremely well and gave us a discount off the bill which was much appreciated. The Sunday lunch was excellent a big portion lovely and warm and well presented. Again the service we had from Elliott was first class - a lovely young chap who greeted us with a smile - shame he is an MUFC fan!!!! We will definitely visit again soon - well done o Gavin and he team. Julie & Pete

Stumbled on this place when looking for somewhere to eat and was extremely pleasantly surprised. The menu is extensive - from tapas-style small dishes, to sandwiches and baguettes to big hearty burgers and classic meals. They don’t make a big thing of it, but EVERYTHING is homemade. My wife ordered fish and chips and they poured the beer in front of us for the batter. Even the tartare sauce, for example, is homemade. It’s really reasonably-priced, too. Us two adults and our two children ate a lovely lunch with drinks for under £40. It was so good that we travelled for 30 minutes the next day to come back again for lunch! Really impressed, and really glad we found it. We’ll be back!

Great stop on the Coastal Path from Conwy. Friendly staff and good food. Only disappointment was the 'S' missing at the moment from the pub sign. Gladstone was born close to here in Liverpool and I think it would respectful and good karma to bring the 'S' back. Gladstone is so much better than Glad tone :)

We had booked a table for our family get together for 4 adults and 3 children. Great menu with so much choice and kids menu too. Our order for drinks was taken and then our meal orders. Our food was delicious, top class. All the staff are very friendly, accommodating and nothing is too much trouble. So glad we live close by and can visit regularly. Highly recommend.

Absolutely beautiful place opposite the beach to have lunch. Lovely host/owner. Superb food. Host couldn't do enough for us. Highly recommend. Thank you

Stopped at the Gladstone on our way home from Anglesey and had a great meal. A warm and friendly welcome for us and the dog, very attentive staff, a great selection of drinks, and delicious food.

Walked in around 4pm today with my little girl, sat at a Table in the restaurant which was about 2/3 full. Sat there for about 10 minutes and no one came over, waiter walked past us about 4 times and didn't acknowledge. Tried to catch his attention but nothing. Then went to the bar and stood there and again no acknowledgement, no I'm busy be with you a minute, no welcome. No nothing. So we left. Doesn't take much to acknowledge people even if to say you're busy we would understand, otherwise its poor Customer Service.

My wife myself and my dog were in north wales on Holliday and popped in to the Gladstone for a drink and hopefully something to eat and asked on entering if it was Dog friendly. We hadn't booked a table but were fortunate to be greeted by the owner Gavin and he squeezed us in. And we were very glad he did, the food drink and service was impeccable and he made us feel very welcome. We both had the Burgers fries salad and cheese sauce. Followed by the sticky toffee pudding and cream. Absolutely delicious . Thankyou for the experience Gavin and gang we left feeling very happy and full 😊 what a lovely experience. Thankyou x

The best thing about my visit (for food with family and my dog) was the staff! So much so I asked behind the bar if the owner/manager was available to pass on my thanks but was told they were away. If you think about this for a second then in their absence the staff maintained a superb work ethic. Leonie and the other girls provided a superb welcome and also locked after my dog after a long walk. Well done ladies for a welcome stay. Food was good, however, what will make me return was the great team there!

Decent food, superb pub but what made me write my review was the attitude of the staff on duty. Superb. Looked after my dog too. Leonie and the others worked so hard to create a positive and warm welcome. Tried to speak to the Owner but they were away, so to them you should rest well knowing your business is in good hands in your absence.

Nice hotel and bar.The staff were very accommodating and friendly.The breakfast was excellent and the evening meal was good too.Really reasonable prices for food and drink, also brilliant for my little dog nothing was too much trouble.We have already rebooked for xmas.

What can I say? Lovely place very friendly. No complaints at all. Gavin is doing a five star job. Very good value for money.

We ate here after a long walk only booked as it was close to our route. We were very glad that we did as the sunday roast we all agreed was excellent. Plated and accompanied by a large yorkshire pudding the food was really tasty...

My boyfriend and myself came this evening for a little date night. What can I say. The food was absolutely amazing. Nice and hot , fresh, absolutely beautiful. We had a main as well as a desert. Definitely recommend it. We'll be back

We are blessed to have ‘The Gladstone’ as our local and often pop in with our dog for a drink and a bite to eat in the warm and cozy surroundings. We thought it was about time we left a review to let others know...

Sorry this review is late I only remembered driving by the other day that I hadn’t left a review since our xmas dinner on 22/12/23 Booking was for 14 people It was our second time having our party here, think year before there was 17...

Had a great Sunday dinner at The Gladstone. 3 choices of roast meat available. The portion size is excellent with a huge yorkshire pudding that my grandmother would have been proud of. We were served by Elliot and he took our meal order and drinks....

Meal was lovely and it was steak night so excellent value, dog friendly so win win. Staff always very pleasant and big shout out to “mum” who always seems to be working really hard.

NYE meet up planned with our ladies camper group. The welcome was brilliant, super helpful. The service was outstanding and the food was superb. Can’t wait to return! What a team and what an achievement to offer such a brilliant experience. Gorgeous fire too!

Delicious food as always. Great value for money and wonderful service. Husbands review of his burger “absolutely f***ing fantastic” Highly recommend.

Absolute hidden gem.If you want amazing food ,a host that cannot do enough for you.beautiful views.Clean,big and beautiful hotel rooms then book here. Totally dog friendly and wheelchair friendly .We stayed one night with evening meals and breakfast whilst our son was staying at the...

Fantastic pub and hotel! We stayed this week and had a superb experience. Gavin and Stephen are fantastic hosts and you really feel a warm welcome when you are at The Gladstone. The pub is great and very reasonably priced, the food is out of...

Please be aware that the items you order do not in any way resemble the tasty descriptions on their menu, the food photos online do not look like the rubbish bland food they serve here. Don’t be fooled. The chef needs to learn how to...

This pub is awesome, the welcome by Gavin and his team, the quality food and service is second to none. So welcoming and friendly. It was delightful to visit and we will be back for more, maybe tomorrow. Thank you all.

Me and my partner came here for Sunday dinner…best thing I can describe it as is a proper Sunday dinner! Fully loads and everything tasted fresh and delicious. The only downfall was the Yorkshire pudding was just too crispy but everyone has different tastes and...

On holiday just 10mins away in Llanfairfechan. Before coming for a meal we checked the place out, popping in just for a swift ale. As the staff were so friendly, and the place seemed relaxing, we booked to go in on Sunday. It's a fixed...

Fantastic food with friendly staff and even entertainment on some nights what more could you want. Children are also catered for

Stayed overnight here on a Monday last month - lovely hotel, great views from beer garden … Host Gavin efficient and friendly … Had takeaway as restaurant not open Mondays but food was good😁.. Then a great night with local folk music - Breakfast next day was delicious … Just booked to go back … A lovely and enjoyable stay😁 Julie, Liverpool

Visited this lovely pub for the first time. Pre-booked. Parking ample. Convenient the views are spectacular from inside the premises of the coastline looking out to puffin Island. Pub is clean, and the tables are well spaced apart. We took out little dog, and your fur babies are very welcome here. Bar area is nice and welcoming. The restaurant is roomy and well decorated. The staff are polite and professional, and nothing is too much trouble. Myself & my wife had 3 courses and 2 drinks , all the food was great tasting with good portions. Well presented food which is important. Perfect for tourists and locals. Friendly atmosphere and a very relaxed ambience. We will be returning again in the same week to sample the Sunday lunch. Menu is varied with an extensive selection. Prices are below average for the area. For us, 4 soft drinks , starter , main, and dessert each with 2 side orders and all under £60. If you're a Blue light worker or NHS ,Carer, etc, they welcome a Blue light card for a discount. Honestly, move over Bryn Williams ( Michelin star) in Wales as this is exceptional good food and competitive prices. As the Gladstone isn't tucked away, it's not a hidden gem but a jewel in a crown. Thanks to all the staff for a enjoyable visit. See you soon !! DR Gary & Louise.

Been to the Gladstone many times but not really tried the food , decided to try the steak night . Wow very good indeed , the food was great the staff fantastic and welcoming. Eating with my wife we both had the rump steak cooked to perfection and accompanied with fries, mushrooms and tomatoes we added pepper sauces ,creamed cabbage and onion rings really nice . Steak night varies from 12.95 to 13.95 wether you have rump , sirloin or ribeye. Is there a better deal around Conwy I don’t thinks so 👍👍👍 . Go down and try yourself well worth it .

Great place for a beer and a chill. Staff are friendly and provide excellent customer service. The food is the one thing that lets it down and can be hit and miss. They have offers on most nights which are good however the quality isn’t the best. We were here for fish Friday and whilst a bit of a bargain for £10 it doesn’t compare to the chippy. Fish is frozen then cooked and they definitely need to change the oil for the chips we had. If we had been paying full price I would have complained plus I like the staff and the beer is good. Just spoils the visit but would still return but maybe just for drinks .

Called in for some food on way back to the caravan,great atmosphere and a lovely welcome, food was well presented and very enjoyable at a reasonable prices,young gentleman called Gavin was very attentive and helpful with offing advise and making another reservation for Sunday lunch,if in the area call in you will be made very welcome ,all staff are lovely

We were disappointed with our experience here. My pasta dish tasted of salt. There were a couple of comments from the staff that we didn’t appreciate. One of them finished their shift 2 minutes later so maybe that was the driver. Perhaps the young bar man doesn’t realise that different lagers have different tastes. Anyway, my other half’s sea bass was tasty. They’d had a busy day and several of the menu options were finished. Wouldn’t mark down for that but the pasta was poor and I didn’t enjoy it. Service not great. I wouldn’t return here.

Came at 5:30 on a Saturday, was pretty quiet yet took ages to be served and for food to arrive. Lamb rump was delicious, chips, mushrooms and tomato nice too but no veg with any of the meals. Kids nuggets and chips but no beans or peas or anything? Just felt like there was something missing...

Very good 👍. Went on a Tuesday which was steak night. Wife had a sirloin and I had a lamb rump, both were excellent and very good value. Superb views from the beer garden. Beer and food plenty of choice 😋

Recommended to go here for a drink and food and it did not disappoint, steak night Tuesday is a must

Lovely experience all round, very welcoming hosts, friendly competent staff, excellent food! Sat outside before our meal and enjoyed an unobstructed stunning view of Anglesey, Puffin Island and Llandudno across the bay, priceless view! We had 2 small dogs with us, very well behaved, and...

11/10 for the Sunday dinner and desert. The food did not stand a chance it was that nice and I am very fussy with my food. Great selection of drinks and the service was great. Would defo recommend a visit there

This pub has lost its identity. With a caravan park at the end of the drive. It should be thriving.. not surprisingly it's not. How its its in the Good Beer Guide is unbelievable. A sad shadow of its former self

Went for Sunday lunch and it's probably one of the worst I've ever had. Ordered turkey & beef which came out just warm with dried up turkey and beef so fatty & tough I struggled to eat any of it, to complete this £13.95 meal...

What a find! We are staying on a nearby caravan site and decided to try the nearby Gladstone hotel/pub for our evening meal. What a treat.! Tuesday steak night..partner, who is not easy to please, commented about his steak meal 'Absolutely superb'! I chose the...

I visited this place for food and drinks whilst staying in Conwy. One of my friends was staying here with her two dogs. This place was far better than I expected. Everyone who worked there was so welcoming & so we’re the locals and tourists...

I went to this restaurant with family and friends on a Thursday afternoon. The place was quiet and we were greeted by a friendly waitress. The menu had a lot of options, from burgers and salads to classic pub dishes and dirty fries. We ordered...

Stayed for 1 night at the end of our holiday it was the most expensive rate per night of our trip and overall I feel it is about £10 too much per night. Gareth greeted us and was very friendly and professional actually showing us...

We had such a lovely evening here last night. We booked a table for 6.30pm and decided to choose 4 dishes from the starter section of the menu. We chose belly pork and black pudding, dirty fries with bacon, cheese and onion, mini rack of...

Lovely food, friendly staff and very welcoming for dogs too. The views are amazing and we were lucky to see 2 beautiful sunsets . We’ll be returning when back in the area.

Popped in at lunchtime for chips and a coffee. We were served really promptly, chips were piping hot as was the coffee. Lovely pub with really friendly staff. Will definitely call again.

9 of us have just visited The Gladstone for some food during our holiday. We had booked in and from the minute we arrived, Mandy and the team took great care of us. The food was exceptional and service was fantastic. Nothing was too much...

Not impressed. Went in to eat on Sunday, no food in evening. Phoned Monday to check when they were serving food told Tuesday and Wednesday. Went in at 6pm on Tuesday, no food.

Great food, excellent staff comfortable surroundings We ended up staying an extra night, we will definitely return. Special mention to Steven Gavin and the chef Lewis excellent food thank you for making our stay so special

Excellent all round. Food was super - lots of variety and well cooked. Atmosphere great and staff friendly and most pleasant/ helpful. I have never rated a restaurant, cafe or Inn as ☆☆☆☆☆ out of ☆☆☆☆☆ before. We will be back.

Amazing welcome from Steven, Gav and all the team. Lovely room and delicious food. Great location. Loved every minute Thank you to everyone for making our stay very enjoyable. We will be back 😊. Highly recommend x

There where 35 of us for a meal the service was fantastic, Gavin great communicator before we arrived. Staff very discreet when serving. Food was very good can’t complain

We were a large family out for a birthday meal, 35 of us I think. Our meals were lovely and the service was great. I would highly recommend this place.

Great visit with a huge family group. Great food. Great drinks. Highly recommend for anyone staying in the area we had a fab time.

The food is great and the staff very nice There were over 30 of my family and all food came out so that we all ate together very well done to the kitchen staff and front of house for making this possible. The Black pudding...

I own a few bars in Central London and It makes me really REALLY enraged to think that whoever runs this place believes it’s acceptable in my business to provide such atrocious food. The v cheapest of everything…..I could go on and on and on...

Stopped today on our way home for a meal. We both had Rump Steak and onion rings to share. The meal was amazing very tasty the onion rings were homemade and delicious. The Gladstone never fails to please

Amazing food. Even did a half meal for one of us, Waitress was lovely and Gavin Parry looked after us brilliantly. Will definitely be coming back 💗

We had a wonderful lunch on a very chilly inhospitable day. Stephen was most welcoming- he offered half portions of the mains (so we could fit in a pudding😜) and was charming and helpful throughout Always a delight - thank you

Can always count on a fantastic meal and I’m never disappointed when i come here! Definitely recommend, very good prices as well.

We went to The Gladstone for Sunday lunch today and were so very impressed with the whole experience! The staff are absolutely delightful throughout the whole process of reserving a table, serving the meal and saying farewell! We all opted for the roast dinner which...

Great food, really good quality and amazing service. Really welcoming place and good value for money

Chose to go there for our last night in PMM. Greeted by Gavin, one of the owners. Now this lad has found his niche . THE PERFECT PUB/RESTSURANT HOST. Recommended a side to accompany our seabass, which I had already spotted. 3 of us dining,...

We were staying nearby and enjoyed an excellent meal. The best burgers we have had away from home! Excellent service and 'very' dog friendly 👌 Thank you

We stayed at the cottage next door we had breakfast on our first morning and decided to eat there for the rest of our stay. A recently aquired family run establishment with great plans for the future. The hotel and restaurant is pet friendly and...

We thought to keep it local and try what we have close by. Steak night sees the steak subsidised by around a fiver. Unfortunately, I chose a T bone which wasn’t subsidised. I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed an excellent steak which was considerably...

We were staying in the area for 3 days and visited on the Saturday evening at 6pm for food and drinks. on arrival there were lots of staff on behind the bar but it felt a little disorganised. After a drink in the bar we...

Good location, friendly staff and dogs welcome. Unfortunately thats the only pluses which we notice during our stay. Room different than the one on the photo during the booking-tiny window and broken blind. Dirty carpets and mould in the bathroom. Wifi literally doesnt work. Breakfast...

Thankyou for a great night for my birthday, food was fantastic, and service with a smile. Topped off with a lift home to our caravan by licensee Mandy.

We visited the Gladstone on steak night. The food was fantastic and the chef made a fantastic meal for my husband who is a coeliac. The young lady who served us (Gabbie) was most helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble for her....

Fantastic hosts. Very welcoming. Beautiful room with sea views. From the minute we arrived we were made to feel comfortable. The room and premises were perfect and clean. The pub itself has a lovely laid back atmosphere and the locals were very friendly. The location...

Disgusting and Transphobic management team. As a gender-fluid person, bar person asked my partner ( to whom I am married) to request that I only use Disabled toilets….this while they were in the ladies toilets. She claimed the manager had asked her to do this...

Never a fault with the food and always spot on. Very affordable and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

We arrived at the restaurant around quarter past two on a Saturday afternoon. We were shown to our seats and told that someone would come and take our order. After around 10 mins the waitress took our order for drinks and delivered them to us....

The food was good, great portion sizes and in a really nice setting. Only thing that let it down was the waiting time especially as we went in earlier upon request (abs with kids). However personal service was friendly and would potentially come back.

Wow. Both had different things but both were outstanding. Lovely. Delicious. Not a morsel left on either plate. Glad we’re here for 3 days!

We highly recommend that you visit and stay here, very warm welcome and great atmosphere. Food is top notch portions are great good selection of drinks hot and cold. The staff are amazing Mand, Llinos, Naiomi,and Jord.Sorry we missed Steven and Gavin but we are...

Me and my family went here for a Sunday roast, meat was terrible full of fat, Yorkshire full of fat. Drunk people everywhere bumping into your chair and table, very loud. Wasn’t a very pleasant experience.

We had the Sunday carvery again today. The food was hot well cooked and served by friendly well trained staff. They even provided.a plate of meat for the dog at no cost. Highly recommended.
