The Grapes Hotel, Bar & Restaurant in Gwynedd

This was our first visit & can honestly say it was one of our best Sunday lunch we have enjoyed’& for a carvery everything was done lovely a good choice available too ‘ and the staff made us feel very welcome & comfortable’a very cosy place to be ‘a big thankyou to Chloe who was our server

Great Sunday lunch Also good night out with colleagues.

What a lovely place to stay and the staff are brilliant food is lush Thanks

Stayed at the grapes just for one night during our visit to Snowdonia. Very friendly staff, evening meal was great, breakfast was really good too. Beds were comfortable, room was clean and tidy. There’s a good sized car park for hotel guests, and a games room as well.

Grubby, noisy, lacking a bit of class.

It was a very pleasant stay. We always got a smile out of all the staff when you walked in the hotel from the start of our stay till the minute we booked out.the food is perfect every time. There's not a bad word that i can say about it.when it's busy as it's very popular, the parking is difficult at times, but you can understand that.i will go back there again with out a doubt . Thank you very much for the wonderful time there

Mr. B.....Using my wife's account...... Found this hotel 2 years ago, after many years of coming to the area. It does exactly what I want. Very friendly, helpful, and hard working staff. Good food. No frills, no nonsense, very adequate accommodation. In a beautiful part of Wales that I have loved coming to for over 50 years. If it remains like this, I will not go anywhere else.

Food excellent,and table service

Had dinner ... Beautiful location Lovely food Very friendly stuffs. 10 on 10

Amazing place and really good food,outside is beautiful 😍

Lovely place. Great views from the restaurant!

Review edit: see the response from the bar below. The owner can't read it seems. No wonder our experience was so bad. At 8:50 someone in front of us at the bar ordered food. Went to look at the menu and were informed the kitchen closed at 8:30. Put this on your website and be consistent with customers. No reason to let some people order but not others.

We didn't stay at the hotel but we had a meal Wednesday evening and loved it so much that we went back Thursday as well. Delicious 😋 food at affordable prices and very good service!

Visited for dinner one night as we were staying nearby. Nice little spot, veggie lasagna was delicious! Good portion size too! A plate Garfield would love.

Very enjoyable meal in the restaurant

Proper good Sunday carvery with excellent ales on cask..

Good food in a lovely location. Surrounded by mountains, the outlook from this establishment is spectacular.

Good menu, tasty food and generous portions. Great service.

Great spot and set in the most beautiful part of Wales. Clearly a lot of time and effort spent in developing the Grapes.

Didn't stay here but food was really good

Stunning, the Ford is amazing the staff so helpful and friendly would highly recommend this place

Food was delicious and very large portions. Service was friendly and great. Dog friendly in the bar 👍

Disappointed, ordered food 5.45pm starters came and waiter asked if we need cutlery 🙄 we finished our starters and nobody came to check on us (in the garden/outside area) waited for ages until went to ask where are our mains, and our deserts came before our mains! the waiter had attitude and argued with us that there is a problem in the kitchen and still wanted to leave our deserts on the table but we refused. not sure how this place got top 10 place of best pubs to visit in Great Britain with such appaling service. Did they know they will be reviewed? how? top 10?!!!! what? 😃 toilets without toilet paper, men vaping in mens toilets list go on for the top 10 pubs to visit 😀

Food is really nice .....Beef madras curry ,spot on!

Newly Renovated Terrace. Plenty of choices of local food. Nice portions. Bar service staff is friendly, prices are very fair! Book in advance, its a popular spot, for a good reason

Popped in for swift half on my travels. Was well worth the small detour through the beautiful village of maentrwog. A couple of ales on and does food. Has a games room and outside seating with shelter m.Lots of character. Recommended 🍻 🎱 🎯 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Typical Welsh place, lots of choice of different beers. Excellent food.

An overall ok experience but we had an absolute nightmare on arrival trying to park because although our booking said ‘free parking’ they only had a tiny car park and it was full, meaning we had to drive around and around for over 20 minutes looking for somewhere to park which was very stressful. I think if advertised ‘free parking’ and you have a booked room you should have a guaranteed spot because otherwise guests with luggage might have to park miles away which wouldn’t be appropriate for most people, especially older people or those with a lot of luggage. Luckily eventually we were able to find a spot on the side of the road and moved the car into the car park later on that evening when a space opened up.

Took our elderly parents here for dinner whilst they were visiting us. Had a fabulous meal as always - very welcomimg, friendly staff and great food (and big portions!) 😋. Excellent value for money. Diolch yn fawr

Great food, great outdoor area to sit whatever the weather. Friendly staff.

Really good food. Will be back again.

Atmosphere 5 star - big portions and very tasty food , really amazing nice place. Food was cooked for perfection and service was great . Thank you .

Great place to stay when visiting North Wales. Team are all friendly and helpful.

Had a great night in a 1 bed cottage at the rear of the main hotel. Food was delicious and a warm friendly welcome from all the hard working staff, thank you, will definitely be back for a longer stay.

An amazing place enjoy it a lot

We ate in the restaurant and made sure we booked in advance. The food was excellent with generous portions so we had to share a dessert! Service was attentive and friendly. Worth noting that if you do reserve a table you can go and find it straight away without having to go to the bar as your name is on the little card they put out.

Very nice stay, breakfast included in price

The best pub we could wish to find

Had a family birthday meal (8 of us) here in April, food was really good, locally sourced meat etc and spot on, (minted lamb burger from butchers in Bala was excellent). Lovely setting watching the steam train run on the side of the mountain. Loads of outdoor seating so will look forward to going back on a sunnier day. Staff were very friendly and I highly recommend but may need to phone & reserve as I think its quite popular owing to reasonable price and good quality food.

Delicious meal really friendly atmosphere and generally a great stop if you are checking out Wales. I had the lamb and it was incredible and what a fantastic portion size!

Great food, friendly staff definitely going back👍

Long weekend for a 30th anniversary with friends. Rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable . Food was gorgeous, fairly priced and plentiful. Bar well stocked. All staff were amazing, we all had a brilliant time, thanks to ever employee! Ti'n werth y byd!

Lovely pub bed and breakfast. The food was great. Breakfast was fresh and hot when it arrived. Staff are very helpful and friendly . Furniture may be upgraded in the bedroom and a mattress topper needed as could feel springs and lumps.

We booked a table for 3 in advance and I recommend doing this as they were fully booked. We had nachos as a shared starter for 3 people (plenty of food for 3 people), then the steak and ale pie, and vegetarian bangers and mash. This was all delicious! The staff are incredibly friendly and we really enjoyed our time there. So much so we went twice.

Me and my mum came for a Sunday dinner over the Easter break and once again, the service and food was exceptional. I was going to opt for the carvery but was too tempted by the pie that was on the menu. Good was delicious & the waitress was super friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Photo attached of the pie - would recommend!

Absolutely beautiful meal there. Possibly the best burger I've ever had. The staff are lovely as well. They couldn't do enough for us. Thank you for such an amazing meal. Will definitely be back, and will hopefully get to experience the hotel next time.

A nice cosy restaurant where you definitely need to dine in.

Really enjoyed our 2 night stay here. In the king ensuite. Fast and friendly service. Food was amazing would definitely stay here again.

Stayed here for 2 nights after biking at Coed Y Brenin. Bike storage, great food, service, staff. The rooms were spacious, spotless with comfortable beds. A great place to stay.

Had a two night stop here in Maentwrog (still no idea how to pronounce it🤔). Everything suited us, the warm welcome, accomodation, food, staff and Welsh beer! Its a very busy spot and deservedly so in my opinion. Thank you Grapes hotel

Just had an evening meal here whilst staying in the area and were very pleased we did! The location is superb and there are stunning views across the mountains from the restaurant. There was a great choice of meals, portions were good sized and the cheesecake we ordered was the biggest I've ever seen! Service was also efficient and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Great service and friendly staff! Lovely tasting food with a good variety on the menu. Great portions and quick service. Will be back!

Third time we've been to this pub the food is terrific, the location great, the staff are friendly - couldn't recommend it enough. The steak and ale pie is amazing

Only passing through, we only had lunch. Excellent quality dishes with very good value for money. Nice and warm place.

Lovely food, excellent staff and atmosphere, deffo recommend.

Good food and service, good selection of beers.

Food was Great at start but went cold very quickly as people was using the door next to us .very dissapointing

Worked hard to accommodate a large party and last minute additions, with lovely food and very generous portions!

Stayed in Maentwrog for the weekend and popped in yesterday to watch the rugby. Returned today for the Sunday carvery Great food, huge portions so great value for money. Staff are very friendly and helpful...dog friendly too in the bar area. Would highly recommend and will definitely return!

Went here for my inlaws 50th wedding anniversary. Food, service and staff were absolutely fantastic. Thank you.
