The best restaurants in Pwllheli North Gwynedd North Wales

So I ordered an afternoon tea as a treat for myself and my daughter. It was amazing! Being a vegetarian Im really fussy when it comes to food. Linda did an excellent tea for us. 100 💯 highly recommend. Best one i have ever had.

Becws Islyn, Nefyn beach café Friendly staff, great coffee, cakes and ice creams on the beach road at Nefyn.

Excellent service, lovely little place. 10 of us visiting from Manchester called in for lunch yesterday. The lady serving us was lovely and the food was delicious. Thank you.

Absolutely the best Indian food I have ever tasted!

Went for dinner Saturday 19th August. Had a very warm welcome from Morgan and the two waitresses. Restaurant and bar looks great with a pleasant atmosphere. Looking at the menu there was a tasty range of dishes to choose from. I understand this changes regularly with the Chef, James, showcasing his formidable talents. I was blown away by what came out, each dish serving up a symphony of tastes and textures, my photos do not do them justice (I forgot to take picture of main- beef ragu, in my haste to get started on it). I could not fault Selar and will certainly return, hopefully not driving next time so I can sample their extensive wine list and cocktails. Exceptional value, quality and experience. I real gem for the area.

Lovely old style cafe great visit

Such a lovely take out meal very good portions and so tasty. Well worth the money and will definitely buy again. Thank you.

We love coming here. Ash always makes us feel really welcome, as if we are old friends. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The food is always excellent.

We visit Pwllhelli every month and lunch at the Whitehall each time. The food, staff and pub are 1st class. Nothing is any trouble for the staff who are always friendly which says a lot about the place. Don’t know who manages the place but they are doing a good job or at least the staff are. Look forward to lunch when we visit Christmas week.

Roast like your nan makes it! Delicious and lots of it at a good price. Nice atmosphere and great service. Make sure you arrive hungry, preferably after a session in the surf, or a long walk along the windswept coast. Good pint of welsh ale too. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had a fantastic meal on Friday. Curry night + food for kids....also chicken for the two dogs. Went one afternoon to get a beer but was shut....then the owner Heidi i think that is her name,said come on in and let us have a couple of beers. Love the menu,just the right balance. Thank you gor looking after us,the kids and the pooches. Would go back again. Worth the six hour drive. Heidi dont work yourself to the wall. Its a gold mine. A perfect balance. Find someone you trust and sit back a little. I have been in the same place. X Thank you.

Excellent food couldn’t fault any of our numerous starters and main meals. 5* service by all staff great environment for a family meal out. Will be back

We were struggling to find a bar to have a drink and take the dog in Pwllheli, they do not appear to be so dog friendly there as they are in Porthmadog and Abersoch! We had driven past Whitehall and saw the board outside saying dogs were welcome and parked up. Hubby went inside and I then realised the board was for the pub next door so called him and we went there instead. Orla (the owner) greeted us warmly and advised it’s table service only so we sat in the beer garden and ordered some drinks. We shared with Orla the struggle to find somewhere open on a Monday and then also allowing dogs. Orla came over and told us they weren’t usually open until later in the week but as the weather was nice, thought they’d open up and see if people were about. Orla chatted with us about the area, where to go and where to avoid, she was a real fountain of knowledge and even wrote it all down for us. We’re not sure on the food experience as we didn’t eat, but please ignore the negativity in the previous review as it seems mainly based on character of the owners and to be honest, the owners were so hospitable and warm with us, I don’t get how their experience was so vastly different to ours! Orla is from Cork and has lived in Wales for many many years, go see her if you want some true advice on the area, she’ll definitely help you! Thank Orla!

Hubby and me went here for a brunch lunch yesterday (Tuesday). It is situated in a Grade 11 Victorian wooden railway station building. We both ordered the small plate Rocket breakfast @ £8 and a side bowl of chips @ £2.30 (contactless card payments accepted). The breakfast consisted of 1 rasher of bacon, 1 pork sausage, 1 hash brown, 1 fried egg, 1 spoonful of beans, 1 plum tomato, 1 thin slice of toast (choice of white or brown bread) and 1 mug of tea (or coffee). It's a shame that all of the breakfast items were barely warm. However, the chunky chips were nice and hot. The staff were polite. Last orders are at 2 p.m. so I would suggest that you get there no later than 1.45 p.m. You have to ask for the key to the toilet which is located outside at the back.

Tried Pili Papas for the first time today for lunch and experienced high quality, high value, delicious food and drink. I would highly recommend. I had the Welsh rarebit with crispy bacon, which is served with a lovely side salad, it was absolutely delicious. My husband has homemade quiche with chips, which also came with a huge side salad. The portions are generous, the value is amazing.
