The Penrhos Arms in Isle of Anglesey

Can't rate the rooms, didnt stay but it's a nice quaint little pub, nice little pint and a game of darts, had fun, bar staff was friendly and chatty, nice young lady

Great value for the money, good location for local transportation

Only called in for a pint.... Serviced quickly and with a welcome 😁... And what a great pint of John Smith's it was ..

I was really worried about coming after I read some of the bad reviews but once I got here it was clear these people were speaking out of their backsides and probably wanted a 5 star hotel for a 3 star price, the room is clean, the furniture old fashioned but in good condition, the staff was friendly

On arrival room looked ok. Upon further inspection, mattress, curtains had bad stains on them. Shower was dirty, looked like the room hadnt been cleaned which is a shame. Bar staff was friendly. Nice location

Room size is fine but the furniture looks dated and it was in need of decoration. Shower grout badly needs to be re done. The mattress was badly stained as I discovered while trying to straighten up the cover and the fitted sheet. Had I found this on the first night I would not have stayed. Sheets were a poor fit and the pillows very thin. Bear in mind that the building is on a main road so expect some traffic noise. Also trains as it's directly opposite the station. On the plus side the breakfast is freshly cooked and well presented. The restaurant is an Indian, friendly staff and good choices.

Our arrival started with no one being there able to check us in for 40 minutes was just left sat in a restaurant awkwardly waiting for someone to come and check us in. The room was dirty bed had clearly not been changed bathroom had black mould absolutely awful experience cant comment on the food as we decided it wasnt worth the risk no apologies from the owner for giving our room to someone else so we got "a better room anyway" how this place has any genuine positive reviews is incredible if you read my review and still think it cant be that bad take a sleeping bag and thank me later .

I recently stayed here and had such a positive experience that I'm writing my second review on Google Maps in a decade. The staff were kind and friendly, allowing me to check past closing time when my transport delayed. The breakfasts and comfort of the rooms alone make this a bargain, and the Tikka Masala was excellent (I say this as someone who frequently eats Indian food). This was my first exposure to "Welsh hospitality" and I was impressed with the staff's caliber and professionalism! If you get the Silwan room, it is very comfortable. Older as others said but it added to the charm and everything worked for me.

Basic accommodation. Good breakfast and an evening curry.

The staff working on the bar and in the restaurant were very welcoming and lovely to speak to, it’s a well priced establishment and had a good surprise visiting since the last time we were in the area to find out that it is now an indian restaurant inside, the food was lovely and a decent price and the people working on the bar were lovely and good at letting us know of other attractions and activities to do around the area, would highly recommend.

It's now been SIX WEEKS since I was double charged by the Penrhos Arms. Refund ? No ! Apology ? No ! Contact ? No ! Watch your cards !!! THEFT !

Brilliant budget stay with fantastic breakfast

The bar is okay since it's been transferred into new ownership. Limited selection of alcohol free beverages, but the customer service is satisfactory. Could do with an external refurb, as it looks tired at the moment, but don't let that deter you from visiting :)

Very reasonably priced. Nice breakfast with nice service. On top of a good pub and an Indian restaurant. Very happy.

Great stay made to feel welcome

Ideally situated opposite 'that' train station we popped in for some liquid refreshment and the locals were very welcoming and friendly - the barman even added a heart to our Guinness!!

A friend of Simon Wilson is a friend of mine. Top stuff

Green grout to whole shower. Cracked tiles. Broken bed. Large urine stain on back of wc pan to greet us. Bedroom door wouldnt lock. Black mould and condensation all over windows. Indian restaurant was ok, nice staff. Breakfast ok. Fault on fire panel bleeping all night. Car park full of junk TV was the smallest i have EVER seen and had 9 bbc channels, none worked though! Never leave reviews normally but this was very bad accommodation and the other reviews are amazingly different to reality.

Comfortable bed, gracious hosts, excellent breakfast, welcoming pub, great location. What more could you want?

Was there for Xmas Lunch, not a very good experience. The meal only average at best, but the service was awful. That's what you get if you only use children to wait on I suppose.

Been coming here for many years and always had great food. Not been for a few months so got a shock last night to find that it’s now an Indian restaurant (the bar is still the same). Food was great and the staff really pleasant. But just thought I’d give a heads up on here!

We had a brilliant 3 course Christmas meal here! Beautiful food and lovely service! Especially the man ( with the Christmas tree headband) he made our visit worthwhile, lovely atmosphere! We come here every year for our family Christmas meal

Well absolutely a waste of money. Food poor I had liver and onions or at least that's what I ordered. Some liver burnt other pieces raw. My wife had cheese burger which was OK however the chips were terrible tasted as if they were cooked in old oil. Room was basic which is fine however when leaving the next morning my wife pulled the covers back to make the bed and oh my god the mattress was a pool.of brown stains. The mattress protector the same except the colour of the stain was yellow. Left feeling sick. Straight home to jump in a shower Will not be returning.

Came here for breakfast and couldn’t have received a better service, the owner was lovely and chatted to us whilst we waited for our food and it was the best full English breakfast we have ever tasted with all local food used!! The owner even brought us some salt and pepper squid to try as we had told him we liked it! Will be returning to this lovely place ☺️

Had a adequate Sunday lunch however service was not very friendly and soft drinks were tasteless cheap cola sold as pepsi mand and charged extra for gravy which does not happen elsewhere. Portions ofveg also measly not sure if I would return.

Located across the road from the local train station, in the village of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogeryrchwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (meaning "The Church of St Mary in the hollow of the white hazel near the rapid whirlpool and the church of St Tysilio near a red cave", and usually shortened to Llanfairpwll or Llanfair P.G), this is pretty much the only pub hotel around. Very well situated, and there are also local bus stops within 2-3 mins walk from the Penrhos Arms. However, bus services tend to be limited, so you'd need to take that into account when planning your day. There's also available parking nearby, which may be a better option. The double bed in my room was clean & most comfortable - and although the mattress was a little 'springy', I still managed a good night's sleep (3 nights in a row)! When booking accommodation, do bear in mind though, that the same room will cost you more for a Saturday evening. Several breakfast options to choose from - including a full, cooked English / Welsh breakfast, plus, selection of cereals, fruit juices and great coffee to start your day. Staff are friendly, engaging & welcoming.

Fantastic dog friendly pub/accommodation! Burt and I were greeted by the owner Steve on the morning of our first stay for breakfast. I stayed 2 nights which included breakfast . I was surprised to find I could order anything off the menu! I had a lovely cooked breakfast with great quality products presented to me and burt got a plate of chopped sausage too! The rooms are basic but I found it very clean with towels and complimentary toiletries . I had an evening meal which was hallumi kebab with huge onion rings , a lovely salad and chips!! Service was great and bar staff friendly . Ideally located and opposite the railway station with the longest name , I also asked Steve to pronounce it!! I very much enjoyed my stay and will stay here again .

What a great pub this is We had a drink last Friday and on Monday popped in for breakfast Such a great breakfast ,freshly cooked and perfect Staff are really nice as I like my egg burnt and they did it

We have eaten here many times over the years and the food has always been of a high quality with friendly efficient staff. But o dear how the mighty have fallen. We booked a table for five adults and I high chair. When we arrived and the landlord eventually stopped tapping on the computer he didn't seem that bothered and then spent five minutes rearranging tables as one hadn't been prepared. jWhen we asked again for a high chair he provided us with a toddler booster seat . When we told him that this wasn't safe or appropriate for a nine month old he basically shrugged his shoulders and said that was all they had. He did eventually bring a toddler booster seat with a tray which was slightly better. It took twenty five minutes to take our order ( two other tables occupied so not busy )and another twenty five minutes for the food to arrive, We had all ordered the same beef Sunday dinner. I ordered drinks that were forgotten about and the waitress mixed drinks up. Not enough cutlery on the table for all of us. No nappy changing facilities and nowhere appropriate to change the nine month old. The food used to be superb local produce including the meat. This meal was not local and at best under average. What a pity we shall now have to find a new favourite pub for Sunday dinner. One that uses decent produce and has a somewhat better attitude to its customers ! Don't Go

Having been here many times and always had amazing food went for lunch and was bitterly disappointed liver was 3 little pieces tough mashed potatoes was like gloop scampi and chips was terrible when complained chips tasted old was told it was a different brand of potato 😩 wont be returning

We came by the other morning for breakfast, it was absolutely delightful, husband really enjoyed his oyster fritter in his full Welsh breakfast. Highly recommend going for food there. Our nearly 2 year old had her scrabbled eggs on toast on the house. Really lovely staff and nice to have a good relatable chat. Thank you so much. Good luck with future and the birth of your new baby.

A lovely pub with great staff. We arrived with a half wet dog and they were very welcoming. The menu was great and the specials just as good. All the food was homemade from scratch. The homemade short crust lamb pie and the lamb shank were amazing. We will go back for sure.

Came here for Sunday dinner. The service was alright. The food wasn't. You could have banged nails in with the roast potatoes. The beef was very tough and difficult cut. It just wasn't great. It was acceptable just.

Excellent breakfast, local eggs, proper dry cured bacon, very reasonably priced. Nice friendly owner, good welcoming atmosphere. Great place to wait for the train. Highly recommended.

This is for the room only. Cannot comment on the food or bar. See pics, shocking! The room hadnt been hoovered stank of dog and had dog hairs all over. The bed was broken and had one whole divan drawr missing. The bed divan frame had a dirt ring all around it. The mattress had huge stains all over and was brown in places the mattress cover had a huge yelloe stain on it. The stem of tge toilet had urine and pubes stuck to it. Tbe toilet carpet wasnt clean. When the man (not owner, hevwas away) came up he argued that it was good enough and i woukdnt be touching the matress becuase of the sheets. He said he would sleep on it which didnt surprise me as he had 'cleaned' the room. He woukdnt give me money back when said i wanted to leave. Finally when i cried he did. £80 for this disgusting room and bed. Oh and basket bin was broken too. Moved to hotel down the road. Avoid!!!

Absolutely wonderful place to stay w a perfect location! Don’t miss out trying the restaurant either! My morning cappuccino was wonderful (and huge) too!

Mia Owen is the only reason I come to the pub great bartender

Lovely owner n staff were fabulous

We popped in for off chance food, staying on the local caravan site. Wow. Lovely welcome, loves dogs, we had 3 dogs in our party! The food was excellent, and the staff were more than amazing on all 3 visits. A hidden gem. Thank you all, so much.

Awesome food, Lovely staff, came for Sunday lunch, didn’t disappoint! Staff were very welcoming & friendly, felt like they couldn’t do enough!! I had the roast Beef it was stunning, good portion size too! Recommend!!!😊

This pub has had loud music playing all day and the volume is beyond ridiculous. The pub is surrounded by decent families who have had to endure this horrific music for the entire day. They were asked to turn it down and they failed to do so. It is completely disturbing the peace and this pub has no regards for its local people . It has gone down hill and their complete disregard for families surrounding them disgusts all of us! This better not be a repeat occurrence.

Limited choice of draught beer, awaiting delivery!! Otherwise, friendly service and good location.

So so bad the service, had main course, waitress didn’t come to ask if we wanted sweet another drink or coffee, she left the dirty dishes on our table, cobwebs flies and dirty glasses, waitress in Bar with the locals, only us in the restaurant. My friends had travelled down and stayed over, was just shocking.

4-star for the room because of unstable water temperature (it burns my skin) and super soft mattress (I got lower back problem) . Super nice staff and services. Pet friendly.

After an absence of about 18months then returned here for Sunday lunch..... What's happened to this place!! It certainly used to be 4 bordering on 5 but not anymore...... Staff friendly but lacking professionalism. Food mediocre....certainly not anywhere near previous standards and quality. Place had become somewhat grubby and cleanliness neglected. Shame......

No soap in the toilet, the hand dryer didn't work and no hot water! And given 2 different prices for the same round! Wouldn’t visit again and especially after the 1 star food hygiene rating luckily we didn’t order food!

We came here as a group of 4 and was pleasantly surprised; having lived in Bangor for many years we are currently residing near llanfairpg and stumbled upon this pub. Food had been shut off at 6 however staff were lovely and we stayed for bingo! Having won the final game we settled down for some pool and some pints. 100% recommend if in the area, as despite not being welsh we felt extremely welcomed. Thank you to the amazing staff!

My mum, my dog and me stayed here 4 nights and couldn’t have been better! Everything was great, from the staff in the morning and in the evening, to the yummy breakfast, spot on location, super comfortable bed, good size shower… could not fault anything! 100% recommendable if you want to explore Anglesey. Thank you guys! See you soon! 🤞

My mum, my dog and me stayed here 4 nights and couldn’t have been better! Everything was great, from the staff that went above and beyond in the morning and in the evening to the yummy breakfast, spot on location, super comfortable bed, good size shower… could not fault anything! 100% recommendable if you want to explore Anglesey. Thank you guys! See you soon! 🤞

This is our 2nd stay and we were again equally impressed. Caldwalder room was lovely. Very clean and comfortable. My dogs are always made welcome. We ate in the pub in the evening. The lasagne was the tastier I have ever had. Portion size was...

Spent one night on journey to Holyhead and on to Ireland. Good location just off main road, and easy to find. Great evening meal and good breakfast. Room adequate with tea making facilities and good comfortable bed.

Ordered liver & onions with mash, liver was about a quarter of the size of a burger, absolutely solid must have been microwaved twice or more. The waitress was very apologetic and nice . Absolutely the worst meal I have ever had. The Waitress said...

It was recommended by a friend, stayed in this hotel for two nights in May, room was clean and tidy, reasonable size with a good price. Breakfast was great, except on 26th, been told had to pay an extra for latte(even they were from the same machine?). Asked the staff, been told no hair dryer supplied in the hotel. The owner was quite friendly, had free lattes in the morning on 27th.

Great staff and excellent service

Fanrastic find. Way above expectations, grest value. Attentive, pleasant staff. They even found us chargers when we realised we'd left ours at home. Comfortable room, Victorian pine furniture, great shower. We asked for quiet and all we heard was birdsong. The evening meal we had was a revelation. Even the wine was delicious. Definitely not standard pub food and drink. Would stay again, and would go there to eat again

We have been coming here on and off for a couple of years or so and have always had a good experience.We were seated promptly and the order was taken immediately.We both decided on the lamb as I had had it a month before and...

Kabouter komt al jaren langs Penrhos Arms. Nooit binnen geweest en stond op de "bucketlist. Binnen gekomen waren een aantal bezoekers in het restaurant gedeelte en Kabouter ging in pubgedeelte zitten. Door jonge enthousiaste dames geholpen met een heerlijke pint cider. Heerlijk gezeten. Eindelijk eens binnen geweest sinds 2007 en nu vaker binnen hoppen voor " just the one🍺"🤣 En ging Kabouter weer. Hele leuke fijne overdag rustige pub voor een stop.👍

The Penrohs Arms ist ein charmantes Pub mit freundlichem Personal, köstlichem Essen und einer entspannten Atmosphäre. Ein Muss für jeden, der die lokale Küche und Kultur in Wales erleben möchte! #penrohsarms #pub #essenundtrinken #gemütlich

We had food here, the service was excellent and the food was fantastic, booked to go again for my mum's birthday.

Great service and friendly staff.

Really relaxed family evening. Enjoyed the food and service from the lovely waitress who looked after us. Choice from two menus, which my husband was pleased with as more seafood to pick from. I had desert envy for the pancake, which would have been a...

Great Owner with lovely staff and a fun night in the Pub followed by a great Breakie in the morning

Las habitaciones son sencillas. Muy buena ubicación, y personal muy atento.

Not really your usual village pub. I go in fairly often and there always seems to be a lot of new faces. There are obviously the regular crowd as you get everywhere, but a regular supply of visitors. I put this down to the pub also having rooms to let and it being in a very touristy location. The restaurant always gets positive comments although I haven't eaten there the food always smells amazing:-) a good selection of standard drinks (lager, bitter, cider, wine etc) and often at least one decent ale on a hand pump (very well kept, always in great condition) the flow of customers can be fast moving at times so I you get there and there is no where to sit then give it half an hour and there will almost certainly be a free table. Friendly staff and good service. If there isn't anyone behind the bar just ring the bell on the bar and someone will be with you in a few seconds (bar staff also look after the restaurant which is in another room so they might be busy when you walk in) car park round the back and also a large car park directly across the road. My favorite pub in LlanfairPG :-)

We have been to the restaurant numerous times since the new owners took over last year. The meals have always been good.However, last Saturday we were booking with friends but we felt very let down especially after telling friends it was so good. The place...

Grabbed a last minute night away. What a friendly and welcoming place. Good location to explore Anglesey area. The food was delicious - in fact the breakfast was the best we have ever had. And my fur babies were offered sausages. Our room was clean, comfy and although the bathroom needed upgrading it all worked fine. For the money we paid it exceeded our expectations. We will go back again.

This b&b is right opposite the longest named railway station. Good selection of beers. Chef wasn't on the night we stayed so we had to eat elsewhere. Comfy pub, excellent breakfast. Our room was in need of updating, not sure what the other rooms were like. New licensee has not been in long & is updating the hotel side. Right next door to the main road and traffic can be quite loud, (windows were single glazed). Owners very friendly & couldn't have been more helpful. Lots of room in the large car park, local shops within walking distance.

Pleasant staff, excellent breakfast, would definitely stay again. Very quiet, not rowdy pub , nice restaurant.. Excellent value for money.

What a great find. We were in the area on Sunday and I wanted a proper homemade Sunday dinner not of this warmed up frozen rubbish. Hubby found this place by doing a Google map search of the area. All my dreams were answered lovely...

Myself and my hubby would like to thank the Penrhos Arms staff for an absolutely lovely romantic evening. Food cooked to perfection and very friendly staff 🥰 Thanks again guys for an absolutely lovely evening 😊

We were looked after by friendly staff,the meals were lovely and the locals were welcoming ,we will be going back and recommend others to go.

They make the BEST burger salads this side of the bridge!!

We visited on a cold winters day, lovely place. It was very clean and welcoming, nothing was to much trouble. We all had a great breakfast, very tasty and hot. The bacon was thick cut and good quality with plenty of toast! We will return...

Very tasty Sunday lunch prepared by Penrhos Arms. One thing that would ice that cake.. roasties. It is sacrilege not to have roasties with a Sunday roast. Get them on your menu!!

We booked this as a last minute break and because the stay was so cheap we weren’t expecting it to be up to much. Couldn’t have been more wrong. The room was clean and cosy, and an absolute bargain! We decided to eat there in...

Went for lunch with friends and had a lovely afternoon. Staff are very friendly and helpful, the lunchtime menu was varied and a nice range of options. We went for steak sandwiches and Welsh Rarebit, both were great, big portion for lunch and very tasty.

Very cosy hotel, well run and inviting. Probably the best hotel room I've had in a long time

Came in for a table of 2 in the evening, staff was very welcoming, food was gorgeous!! Quick service, good vibes throughout! Definitely be returning!!

Fish and chips undercooked, fish was like water and the potato for the chips were hard. Sausage and mash in onion gravy ordered, came out as beef gravy. I advised the waitress of this as I don’t eat beef, she went to speak to the...

Took the family and the dog, friendly staff, quick service, generous roast, good with the dog. Warm friendly space that surpasses its curb appeal. Toilets not the best

Stayed for a break between Christmas and New year. Can't fault it. Staff more than helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was really good. Ate there and the food was excellent. Friendly atmosphere all around the bar and restaurant. Location also excellent.

Good quality and well priced menu, service was average, no sweets available as Chef opted for an early finish! We chose the Penrhos Arms on the strength of fairly positive reviews left by previous diners but to be truthful we fairly disappointed. Whether we would revisit the Penrhos Arms is debatable!

We have visited a number of times in the last few months. Staff always friendly , always helpful. Today being Christmas day we wanted to start with no pressure - great breakfast , very nice coffee and relaxed . Recommended.

Review based on lunchtime dining only. Several items not on menu, but food we did order was very good. Clean and comfortable restaurant. Service a little slow, but staff were friendly and happy to help.

Wonderful food with great service

My family were looking for somewhere to go for lunch today and decided to pop in as we heard there was a new chef and our friends said the food was delicious- we ate here last year but it wasn't for us so we thought...

Gantastic time at the Penhros Arms yesterday. Brilliant NEW chef (Needed) and staff serving was do much better since last time. Change of owners,change of service. I wouldnt of normally gone back but really pleased we decided to try 1 more time.

Amazing Sunday roast! Brilliant service! Welcomed by a member of staff, very happy &bubbly! Had a the beef and it was very good! Will be returning!!!

We are local and have always visited the penrhos on a regular basis for food and drinks, we will however not visit again as it seems there is different pricing for drinks for different people some people get 'locals discount' and others don't. We are...

Absolutely Disgusting 3 separate rounds exactly the same with 3 very different prices. £15.50, £19.66 and over £21.00. To be told it’s because of the size of the splash 🤬 .Also the door between the bar/kitchen and toilets has been removed making it so cold...

Gastro pub with ensuite rooms upstairs. The property downstairs is split 60% restaurant and 40% bar and has a great atmosphere. The rooms are comfortable with ensuites, TV, coffee and tea. There is an outside terrace and the ground coffee latte was fantastic. This venue is opposite the railway station with the longest place (see photo as too long to write). Lots of great walks nearby. We only had breakfast but the food and the service

Nice place. Very friendly staff. Good food. Location handy just off A55, Llanfair doesn't have much going on, but the pub has everything you need for a short stay. Would go again.

Food excellent.. Staff polite...

Really good food, great selection of drinks and a varied range of vegetarian/vegan options. The true beauty of penrhos arms however lies in the ambient, country tavern atmosphere and even more so in the excellent and very friendly staff who go out of their way...

Having been a regular customer for years, the Penrhos Arms was always exceptional for food etc. but since being taken over the place has really gone down hill.. Went for Sunday lunch yesterday and when our food arrived it was all thrown onto a much...

Called in to Penrhos Arms at 11.16 am to request breakfast for 4 people. Was advised by lady who was cleaning that kitchen was closed. Don't understand when it was advertised clearly outside breakfast available until 11.30am. Must point out there were no other customers...

Came here having booked a table the previous day. Entered the eating area and waited to be acknowledged for around two minutes, being ignored by two staff members before finally being welcomed by the third. We weren't shown to our table, it was pointed out...

After a lovely experience trying on and purchasing my dearest friend wedding we decided to celebrate by having lunch at the Penrhos Arms. After ordering our food eventually, it arrived after 45 mins. The food was extremely disappointing, undercooked, things missing and some inedibl We...

Had the chicken and leeks which was beautifully cooked. Lovely little restaurant and pub area with some nice decor. Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful with one of my friends that’s a veggie! Will definitely return

We stopped here on a Sunday morning for a quick drink. Penrhos has a pub atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. Had a great time! A great place to stop if you're traveling.
