Reviews in Porthmadog

What a find Y Sgwar was. Prompt service, fantastic food well cooked, lovely atmosphere & value for money. Highly recommended!

Really enjoyed our meal on Tuesday 30 May and an excellent restaurant and we recommend anyone to book.

Couldn’t fault anything about it . We had a wonderful Sunday Lunch in a lovely restaurant . We will definitely be back when in the area.

10 outa 10 as always

Y Sgwar, Tremadog is a lovely location to be at & we were greeted well by staff once you have walked in to tell them your name you are being appointed to your table without any fuss & staff were great at table service as well & the meal was exceptional but a mistake was made with the bill so please double check your bill before paying but highly recommend & would dine there again.

Friendly welcome on quite a busy Friday night. Although we live locally it was our first visit to the restaurant but it won't be our last. Good choice of food and drink on offer at a reasonable price. The food was delicious and well presented. Service was friendly if a little haphazard at times. The only downside for us was that as a couple we felt a bit hemmed in by the larger, noisier parties around us.

The food and the service were excellent. Would definitely recommend the restaurant. If I lived nearer, I would definitely be back again

Y Sgwar was recommended in our hosts guide to the area. The food is hearty and substantial and very reasonably priced; service is very friendly. We chose as our starters the haloumi and the black pudding scotch egg; both were good. Our mains were mushroom arancini on a tomato based sauce, and Welsh rump of lamb. I requested medium rare lamb but received medium to well done and the dauphinois potatoes a little dry but even so the food was delicious. The restaurant is quite large and brightly lit.

The menu did not look very different to many 'gourmet pub' menus, and we were almost persuaded to try elsewhere, but the recommendation prevailed, and we booked. So glad that we did, because while the menu resembled aspiring gourmet pubs with active microwaves, the food very much did not. It was splendid. Clearly this restaurant has mastered.the art both of shopping and of cooking, as everything was excellent. My only sadness about this meal was that it was eaten while on a short break nearby, and I will not be able to repeat the experience any time soon. Those of you who live near, go frequently; visitors, don't miss it!

We have been here many times the food was amazing, we had the Sunday lunch and it was piping hot and beautiful and the pudding didn't disappoint. Lovely staff

Great service from start to finish and food was faultless! Staff were friendly and very professional. Mi oedd o’n bleser i bwyta yn Y Sgwâr, oedd popeth yn 100%. Staff yn gweithio’n galed ac bwyd bendigedig!

We’ve been to this restaurant many times for evening meals so thought we would try a Sunday Lunch. We were not disappointed. All courses were wonderful. The soup was so tasty as was the bread it came with. The roast dinner was excellent with a great range of potatoes and vegetables. Unfortunately we were too full for dessert. I would highly recommend. This place never disappoints!!

Second visit. The whole experience was very good. The food is excellent and presented y friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great ambience.

Ate at Y Sqwar on Tuesday 8 April with another couple. Lovely food and great service. Would thoroughly recommend

Always a treat to go to Y Sgwar. As always Excellent food, service and ambiance. Thank you

We visited Y Sgwar yet again during our annual jaunt to the area. It was as excellent as ever in all aspects.

An absolute gem. excellent and friendly service. Booked for the earlybird menu, and the steak pie was the best I'vev ever had. I only wish I lived closer and could go more often. If you are in the Porthmadog area you must try the Y Sgwar.

We enjoyed a lovely Sunday Lunch on 6 April. The food was delicious, the service excellent and the atmosphere welcoming.
