We had an evening meal here after the Hurly Burly in September. The meal was lovely for both of us, while the location and the staff were excellent. Recommended, so don't let the few negative reviews put you off.

Sadly disappointed, from the outside it looks lovely but as soon as you step in it’s bright white walls and very bright lights ruins any chance of ambiance very clinical, the food was just ok nothing extra special. The staff did their job but no extra no one asked if we needed anything else we had to keep trying to attract their attention! Unfortunately I would not return.

Excellent seafood restaurant. Visited with family and friends. I ordered tempura prawns for a starter and cod creole as a main, desert was the Tia Maria meringue. Highly recommend this restaurant.

The food was terrible. I had the seafood crumble. Bland. Huge mistake. However my friends who ordered two other things their food was equally as bad. Potatoes almost raw. Vegetables almost still frozen. Tasted like a microwave meal. The salad was anaemic. Good customer service but very disappointing. Atmosphere almost wake like/ funeral like. Terrible. Would score 0 but couldn’t

The waiting staff were lovely but unfortunately the food was very poor and we left very disappointed. None of the food was seasoned, the fish was overcooked (chewy) and the veg was watery. I suspect the veg, chips and fish were frozen. There was very little atmosphere. We couldn't wait to leave.

If you like frozen carrots and peas for your veg, and possibly all the meals being boil in the bag. This is the place for you! Food was very poor.

The restaurant is clean and service good, toilets are outside in the courtyard. Food is expensive for what you get. What is it with salad garnish even with the main course, no need. Also get rid of pea shoot garnish. With had prawn tempura to start which were overcooked. Monkfish was four bits which was not value for money and tough. Wife’s sole was off and had to be sent back. Desserts were good. Cash only trying to save credit card charges.

Disappointing. Fish was good, other ingredients poor. Frozen chips and veg, supermarket bread, basic motorway-services salad. Quality of ingredients matter at this price point. Neighbouring table sent their food back. More of a cafe, less of a restaurant. Cash only adds a level of complication and don't expect a reciept. Very expensive for what it was, there are better choices in Barmouth.

Reasonably priced cash only restaurant. Plenty of choice. Crab main well liked haddock just a little over and leek and cheese sauce a little bland.

Lovely setting and staff polite and friendly. Was shocked when asked where the toilet was to be directed outside in the rain. Even though the staff where aware that my partner had gone to find the toilet, the starters where served, so going cold. I was really looking forward to a fresh sea food menu but disappointed to see fish in bread crumbs etc. But we tried it and was very disappointed, the price definitely does not reflect the food served, would be better going to the fish and chip shop and quarter of the price. I believe all the food is pre prepped, we where in the restaurant a total of 45 mins, starters main and a drink, impossible to prepare, cook, serve in that time. Definitely will not be going back or recommending. A shame it could be a top restaurant with the right ingredients and chef.

Absolutely amazing food, staff and restaurant. We are out every night and this was our favourite on our last evening in Barmouth. It will be our first choice when we return. I had the duck in orange sauce which was huge and delicious and my husband loved the trout. We had starters and the wonderful homemade tia maria infused meringues with a bottle of Chardonnay and beer and liqueur coffees all for £100... amazing! Thank you.

Came for my birthday dinner last night with my boyfriend. We both ordered the lobster thermador and sadly it was extremely overcooked and horribly chewy. There we some bits I struggled to cut with a knife and left them on my plate. I felt bad as I had picked the restaurant and paid for an expensive meal neither of us enjoyed.

Our first time staying in Barmouth, we enjoyed this restaurant so much that we ate dinner here twice during our 4 night stay. The first time we shared the tempura prawns and the prawn salad then my husband had the fish crumble and I had the cod creole. Everything was delicious and the hazelnut meringue with raspberries, cream and ice cream was a-mazing! Our second visit, we both had the paté followed by steaks which were perfectly cooked to our liking. The staff were friendly and efficient. A great find.

Lovely place people and lovely food however had been calling their for about a month but not getting any answer so I actually drove 90 miles to find it had a sign in the window saying it would be closed for a couple of weeks due to a family issue but with no indication as to when it closed so no way of knowing when it would be open and no one local seemed any the wiser very disappointed as I was wanting to surprise my other half for her birthday. Also I’m not sure that it doesn’t close at the end of what they may Veiw as the season so if that is the case then it probably won’t be open til next year( but how would anyone know

Visited with family and friends in September 2023. First visit for many years and was very pleasantly surprised. Excellent menu, with lots of options, highly recommend the teriyaki prawns and seafood crumble, but all starters and mains looked amazing. The Tia Maria meringue was delicious to end the meal. Very friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely be visiting very soon.

Despite conflicting reviews, we booked a table for 4. We were pleasantly surprised at the prompt service and quality of the food and drinks. The restaurant was about half full, and yes, the ambience could be improved with some background music. However, the staff were very attentive and curtious. All the seafood meals were delicious, with an excellent choice and good value. We would not hesitate to visit again.

Forgettable seafood. I had prawn salad (aka cocktail) to start and lemon sole as main. Both were uninspiring. Prawns could well have been frozen. Sole, normally a tasty fish, was watery. Had the home cooking feel in the sense that if I had a go at cooking these dishes at home this would be how they’d look. Place doesn’t take credit or debit cards. Bill handwritten. Amateur operation overall the promises more.

How to ruin a fish restaurant! Atmosphere was dead, didn’t really want to talk. The waitress didn’t come back to check if our food was ok, when it was shocking. Over cooked the monkfish, to the point the skin had twisted into it. Everything was tasteless bland & watery boiled. Who serves frozen tasteless cardboard tasting fries, with Monkfish, takes nothing to chop a few potatoes & fry. The new potatoes were peeled normal boiled potatoes. It was all going well with the starter the Whitebait was lovely. Absolutely gutted wanted to try this place for ages too. Nothing beats the Lobster Pot & Bank for food. This place was astonishingly BAD!!

Staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. The decor was quaint, warm and welcoming. Unfortunately the food wasn't as welcoming to the taste buds. I found the monk fish overcooked and lacking in flavour. The chilli mayonnaise dip tasted as though it had had a slight drop of tomato sauce, but not a seasoning in sight. I feel harsh writing such a poor review about the food but unfortunately it really didn't meet the standard I would expect of a seaside restaurant serving seafood. It seemed that the food was catered towards and older clientele and would not recommend it for younger tastebuds.

We were afraid we wouldn't get in as we hadn't booked, but there was plenty of room. Though the restaurant filled up over the course of the evening, it was pleasantly full but not over-busy. Though there were other options we both went for seafood - I had the monkfish medallions, which were just gorgeous, my partner had fish (I forget which) in a sauce and said the sauce somewhat overpowered the flavour of the fish. The hot peaches in brandy were simple - but lovely! We think it's a shame there's not a website, and some people may be put off by the cash-only rule, but we thoroughly enjoyed our meal there.

First night in Barmouth after holidaying here for years as a child. Stumbled upon the quaint restaurant near the harbour and fancied eating something healthier after plenty pub grub meals traveling around north Wales. Sorry team, your restaurant doesn't reach a particularly great standard! In a harbour town and a fish restaurant you expect fresh and the frozen just doesn't cut it. Reading the great sounding menu on the exterior enticed us in but it ended there. Staff do need training, seems like the kids helping out during school holidays. Sweet enough but again not for a restaurant. Interior could do with some focus but it's clean and tidy. Good enough place if you want a bite and don't expect too much. This was meant to be something special on our trip but it didn't manage to meet the mark.

Nothing special. The room is out dated and it's like walking into a bad 1970's restaurant run by your nan.The staff are dressed in jeans and t shirts. Worryingly, the receipt is hand written with no vat number etc. It suggests a less than professional operation.

Spontan reifen wir eine Stunde vor Öffnung des Restaurants dort an, um einen Tisch für's Abendessen zu reservieren. Glücklich, dass wir einen Tisch erhielten, freuten wir uns auf Fisch. Meine Gattin bestellte Lobster und ich den Cod mit Gemüse – beides aber ohne Chips. Der Cod war in Bierteig gehüllt und schmeckte wie einfacher "Fish&Chips", war dafür aber überteuert. Der Hummer war gut und frisch – und sein Geld wert.

Phenomenal meal The most gorgeous lobster I’ve ever had! Locally caught from abersoch! This place is a gem and you must try when you’re in abersoch! We were lucky to have glorious sunshine whilst we ate our lunch outside in the sun.

I went here on 16th Aug 2024 on a Friday evening. Big queue outside which went down pretty quickly and the fish and chips were great. Really busy at peak times. Seen some poor / rude reviews about food and staff. I had no concerns. Not expecting staff to come running out to greet you like some seem to expect and when it's really busy the main thing is a streamlined process of cooking and taking orders.

Fantastic service and gorgeous food as always. We visited porthmadog and our first destination was allports chippy. I would like to thank the 3 young gentlemen who served me, they were fantastic and they were very welcoming. The food we had was cooked well, and so tasty. My brother had sausage and chips, and the chips were soft on the inside and lovely and crisp on the outside. Myself, my mother and my other brother had the Southern fried chicken breasts. Our favourite go to food from this great chippy. The chicken was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavourful, with a lovely crispy Southern fried coating on the skin. I will definitely be visiting here again in the near future. Thanks again lads .
