The Captains Table

Visited the Captains Table on the 24th of July this year, and couldn’t have been more disappointed with the food. Staff where very welcoming and very accommodating, but each of our dishes were ultimately disappointing - our starters couldn’t have been further from what we expected. Duck on flatbread was £6.00 and I received one shop bought square flat bread with a small amount of duck scattered across the flatbread, and there being a copious amount of salad put on my plate. Chicken pate was good but only was served with 1 piece of toast without any crust, and yet again a copious amount of salad. It’s apparent that this restaurant fills your plate with vegetables/pre packed salad in order to fill your plate. I also order a 10oz steak worth £22.00 and upon receiving it, it was apparent that it was not a 10oz steak - I had also been given a ridiculous amount of salad with my dish again. In addition to this I had also ordered, lamb shank and mash which was around £15.00; the lamb shank that was presented was very disappointing, and not only did I get a very sparse serving of lumpy microwaved mash but I revived a copious amount of vegetables with my dish again. I also bought a lasagna which upon presentation looked delicious, but it became apparent as the dish was being eaten that the cheese was becoming increasingly difficult to swallow as there was so much of it and I also believed it was pre-packed. To add to this, I also purchased white bait as a side order and was appalled by the number of fish in which were served - 6 white bait served on a plate for £6.00, which suggest I’m paying £1.00 per white bait, which is quite frankly appalling. I have no discrimination against pre-packed food but I believe when the bill amounted to almost £100 that I should be getting my money worth - fresh and non shop bought products microwaved mash, and processed cheese was not my expectations of the restaurant at all, I would not recommend the captains table as your will most definitely not be getting your moneys worth.

We have been visiting Barmouth for years and have eaten in most restaurants.Visited Captains Table last evening -and will certainly not be visiting again!Food is very over-priced for what it is, portions were not what you would expect and distinctly lacked atmosphere.Didn't start well when given menu - which was covered in some form of sticky substance!We were not alone in our thinking - one couple left after just 15 minutes - say no more!

it almost seems that we were at a different captains Table in Barmouth to other reviews that we've seen, as we were served by one of the joint owners who was anything but friendly. there was virtually no-one else in the premises when as a party of five we called in. Surly attitude, drinks handled by the rims and dried up oven chips, quite nasty! When I quietly complained after the meal, she was sarcastic and actually insulting. Their website states many years of experience in the catering industry, yet she doesn't even know how to handle drinks glasses! More like a cafe than a restaurant, though with restaurant prices. Decor sparse and uninviting and mediocre food. Enter at your peril - definitely not recommended.

Visited Barmouth with my family last week end ate in here on one of the evenings - was very impressed, had great choice on childrens menu - not just "something" & Chips. Also large variety of choices on A La Carte Menu. The Service was excellent, with the waitress trying to amuse my youngest child even though she was very busy. Have been visiting Barmouth for years & can honestly say this was one of the best meals I have ever had. Will definitely return.
