Reviews in Porthmadog

We were SO pleased we stumbled across this absolute gem of a restaurant during our recent visit to the area. We got good vibes straight away from the warm welcome we received when we turned up, despite it being a last-minute booking. We shared a starter, and had a main course and pudding plus drinks, and the overall cost was very reasonable. Each dish was delicious - unable to fault! It's a shame we live hundreds of miles away or this would become a regular for us, for sure.

The whole experience on Sunday could not be faulted. Welcome, Service and Food were outstanding - along with the excellent value for money menu offered. We travel regularly throughout North Wales and UK in general and in our opinion this was the best experience ever for a Sunday Lunch. Will definitely visit again.!

Visited Porthmadog area and stayed in Tremadog for a short weekend break with my Wife and Mother in Law. With the two ladies being excellent cooks themselves we all know and appreciate great food and all I can say is what a find this restaurant was ! The owner she granted us our request of a table with a nice view, very nice indeed and a great start. The staff were welcoming and very good service throughout. The food was nothing short of sublime, our compliments go out to the fantastic chef. The meal was absolutely delicious throughout and the produce is clearly top quality and the best of Wales. The meal was a highlight of our weekend and we are still talking about how good it was ! Suffice it to say we all left the restaurant very satisfied and very full :)

Bwyd a gwasanaeth ardderchog.

It was my Birthday dinner and my expectations were high as this place was recommended to me by a lot of people. Food was perfect. We had lamb, duck, scallops and halloumi. Everything was cooked perfectly. I will come back again and will recommend it to my friends. Thank you.

Everything from start to finish we found to be perfect. Well done and thank you.

Excellent evening. Two couples. Excellent food. Lovely staff. One nitpiccy point - the thin pork crackling with the belly pork was too difficult to eat but this did not detract from the evenings enjoyment. Look forward to the next time!

Diolch yn fawr. Bwyd ardderchog a'r staff yn garedig.

Despite being full and bustling on a Friday evening, the food was excellent as was the service Highly recommended

Y Sgwar is our favourite local restaurant so it was the obvious choice for our 45th wedding anniversary. All the staff are very attentive and the food is always of a really high standard. Very popular so booking is essential. Their Sunday roasts are to die for! A hidden gem!

We really enjoyed ourselves food was excellent and we were well looked after by your lovely ladies. Highly recommended.

Another exquisite dining experience at Y Sgwar thanks to Lorraine and the team. Scallop starter is legendary. Special thanks to Marco for looking after us so well. Brilliant restaurant.

Fabulous Sunday lunch. Lovely atmosphere and good service. Recommended

Fab food and good service will go again

We were initially disappointed by the lack of choice of vegetarian main course dishes listed on the menu. However when we asked the staff we were told there were other possibilities available, which some of us chose. Later when looking at the choice for dessert, one of the members of staff pointed out that there was gelatine in the cheesecake. We were grateful for this. We all enjoyed our meals and will return.

The whole process from booking to payment was seamless. We’d recommended Y Sgwar to our friends who were in our party and you did not disappoint! The food in every course was delicious, and we all came away very happy - looking forward to dining with you again very soon!

Wonderful meal for our anniversary. The food was so good and the girl who served us was brilliant! Thankyou for making a wonderful memory. If we ever come back to North Wales, we will definitely return again!
