The Pen-y-Bryn might look a little bit like a medical centre from the front, but inside, you'll find lovely oak floors, open fires, bookcases and old furniture: it all looks very handsome, and we think its unassuming looks from the outside add to the feel
Jerry had spent much of his childhood in Colwyn Bay, and he remembers it as a genteel spinster aunt of a town - which of course describes pretty much every seaside town of that era.
We were aware that the Glasfryn in Mold was pulling in people from quite a way along the North Wales coast, because in all honesty there weren’t that many nice places to go between Anglesey and Chester. So when Taylor’s pub, as it was then, came on the market, our ears pricked up. Taylor’s had been built in the seventies by David Taylor, the manager of the Royal Hotel in the middle of Colwyn Bay, who had decided that he wanted to build his own pub.
Martin McHale, one of our locals, told us that the plot of land that the pub and grounds sits on was up for grabs in the early eighties and both David and a local house builder were after the site. Fortunately David was successful in acquiring the site and he and the builder never spoke to each other again! All of the bricks in the external walls of the properties, and various other construction materials, were acquired by David following the demolition of a substantial number of properties between Old Colwyn and the West End of Colwyn Bay to make way for the new A55 dual carriageway in the early eighties. The pub opened for business as Taylors in late 1983. David sold the pub to Ray Perry in 1998 and we bought it from him.

Food amazing as always, highly recommend a lunch time treat.
Service was excellent but the food even though it was good didn't warrant the prices. Basically knock £1 off items under a tenner and £2 off stuff over a tenner. Salmon sandwich wasn't worth £10.95 imo. More like £8.95 etc
Absolutely incredible food. Generous portions. I particularly love the option to have a small pudding with a coffee for dessert. Pleasant and helpful staff. Lovely cosy atmosphere.
Very pleasant family lunch. Wide choice of food and drinks. Good service. First log fire 🔥 of season that I have come across. Tricky to find. Make sure you put full details in savnav
Really good food. Good portions. Friendly staff and lovely area. Everything was perfect will be returning for the second time this week
