Serving food only until 3pm and we were looking for dinner so we didn't stay, however the staff pointed us in the right direction for other options serving food until later, so on we went!
I was with my diving friends out for a drink. We were in Holyhead for the weekend to do some diving and training. We didn't choose this pub initially but our regular had closed permanently. I think we were all a bit out of our depth here! As mature adults it was pretty obvious we had landed ourselves in a young persons bar where they were getting up to young persons things. We had one drink and left. The local police officers were present outside chatting socially and having a laugh and joke with the pub goers. I was going to go the toilet but I decided to leave it till I got back to our digs! The gents was extremely busy with a lot of coming and going? It was busier than the bar! No not for me Thank you. I suppose if you are in your late teens, early twenties and have a thing about regular trips to the Gent's toilets!
Food was good beer was good. Beer was good. Shame they do not do coffee as they do food. Also, not allowed to bring a coffee in bought from the shop across the road. According to staff, brewery don't allow it. I've worked in pubs for over 50 years and first I've heard that. But as they say in life, first for everything.
Needed an evening meal in Holyhead, didn't want spicy food as sailing next day. This pub was about the only place providing an excellent range of pub grub. Landlord was a top bloke very friendly and chatty with a sharp wit and recommended the fish and the pork chops we is what we both had and both meals were outstanding. Good range of drinks and food worth a visit.
Bar closes earlier than advertised, no food was served. rude staff & the room was below average, light in the bathroom didn’t work and the beds were ancient along with the room. Rude staff member banging on the door to scream at us to checkout 45 minutes before checkout time at 9:45am was not ideal either, on the door it clearly stated 10:30am. It was also advertised as a B&B but breakfast was not even entertained and was not granted time to shower. I realize it is a small town but courtesy and customer service, and overall property management could greatly be improved.
