Amazing food and first class service. We visit the area every summer and always try to eat here (we've started booking a table here when we book the holiday, just to make sure we get a table!). At the end of our meal here last week my partner announced that he thought he'd just eaten his best ever restaurant meal - high praise as we eat out a lot!
Y Sgwar – PorthmadogI live locally and I've eaten twice at Y Sgwar now. Each time all the food has been splendid and the service impeccable. The menu includes some well cooked Welsh favorites such as lamb and Sunday Roast, as well as delicious asian influenced dishes for variety. I shall definitely be going there regularly. It would also be a great place for special occasions or when you want to treat yourself.
Y Sgwar – PorthmadogSpent a splendid evening with f&f here. Everybody agreed that food was excellent, nicely presented, and served by friendly staff. Beautiful colour concept, too, matching the tone of walls, tables and plates harmonically
Y Sgwar – PorthmadogMy meal at Y Sgwâr was fantsstic! The staff were very kind and attentive, the atmosphere was very contemporary (I particularly liked the smooth jazz covers of top-40 hits played at a pleasant volume), and my meal was fabulous: I had garlic mushrooms on sourdough toast to start, a rump of Welsh lamb for my main with a side of dauphinoise potatoes and broccoli, and an apple tart with a scoop of ice cream for dessert. The mushrooms were decadent, very nicely prepared and presented, and the garlic flavor was perfect. The lamb really stole the show — cooked rare at my server’s suggestion, and with the mint jus, it practically melted in my mouth! The broccoli and potatoes were also very good. I will say the dessert was pretty average, but I live by the rule that “if it isn’t bad, it’s good” — and I definitely enjoyed it! I really appreciated the service at Y Sgwâr; I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted to eat or drink, and everyone was very accommodating of me and had plenty of patience while I worked myself out — though I’m sure it got easier for them after I’d downed two cocktails and loosened up a bit! I was very pleased with my experience at Y Sgwâr, and I would love to come back someday. I highly recommend it!
Y Sgwar – PorthmadogAbsolutely lovely! Dinner on Tuesday evening while working in Beddgelert. Staff are marvellous.

Y Sgwar – PorthmadogI booked online last minute- kitchen was kept open for our party. Celebrating my Dad’s 80th birthday after a trip to Snowden. From the moment of arrival I was very impressed- great atmosphere and service from all staff. The food was absolutely outstanding. Perfectly presented and very tasty. I don’t hesitate in 100% recommendation. Was a very special memorable evening. Thankyou to the team on 13/7/23
Y Sgwar – PorthmadogI mean it’s simply the best restaurant in Wales I’ve been to by some margin. It isn’t just that the food is high quality and wonderfully prepared or that the service and atmosphere is just perfect. It’s that it is remarkably consistent. Last night my wife (chicken) and daughter (lamb) actually started laughing out loud as they started their mains - it was that good! Bittersweet - cancer treatment starts Monday. But as a night out before that starts it was a fabulous family evening - THANK YOU

Y Sgwar – PorthmadogI cannot rate this restaurant highly enough - definitely one of the best restaurants I have been in. The food was all sublime. I shared the deep fried goats cheese with mango jam starter with my husband, it was heavenly, should have had one to myself! The chicken supreme and the sauce with it was amazing and the lemon cheesecake delicious too. I highly recommend Y Sgwar, the service is excellent and when we return to North Wales, this will be top of our list and more than once next time! Don’t suppose you fancy opening another restaurant in Hampshire too?!
