Found this lovely pub on a short trip away. The food was amazing. Loved talking to the Chef about their creations and wish I lived nearer to pop in more often. Such friendly service. Thoroughly enjoyed my birthday meal and drinks here.
If I didn't live 4 hours away, I would most definitely be a regular here. Our pictures say it all, good food, good value, good beer and believe me you will have a full belly when you leave. I highly recommend The Holland Arms and thank them for great evening.
Beautiful clean pub, friendly welcoming staff, delicious home cooked food with generous portions beautifully presented good selection of beer and lovely garden, where you can hire games to play.
So we used this pub as an overnight stopover with our camper. Large, mostly level carpark which looks to be covered by cctv so we felt safe. There was very few cars passing and we enjoyed a peaceful night's sleep.
Initially I felt a bit out of sorts as we had the pub to ourselves and there was no one to chat to which was odd but then the couple who ran out came out and chatted and they were absolutely lovely!
The chairs could perhaps do with being updated as I found them extremely hard and a little uncomfortable and the tables were rather sticky HOWEVER....all, and I mean all is forgiven, screw the seats when it comes to the food because let me tell you...! BEEEAAUUTIFUL!!! The most perfectly cooked, delicious food I've ever eaten! I'd sit on a porcupine if I had to just to eat their food again.
If you're not too fussed about your seat or having people to natter with I highly recommend this pub for it's food alone. Also very reasonably priced considering I paid considerably more for a meal elsewhere that was no where near as good.
Also the toilets are spotless and very nice.
They don't have high chairs for kiddies.
There's a gorgeous little beer garden too.
Superb wine and out of this world food and safe overnight parking provided by a really lovely couple. Definitely recommend :D
Nice night, food and beer was excellent sitting outside in the evening with the sun shining. Stopping the night in the motorhome so quiet distant sound of cows mooing
Amazing pub.
Very warm and spotlessly clean.
Friendly owners.
Above all the best home cooked food, Huge menu choice with generous portions.
Welcomed us to stay in the car park with our campervan
If you don't want a chain pub (Robinson's) or a posh restaurant please go here. We were surprised that this was a proper family run country pub surrounded by fields and sheep. I was also amazed that it currently only has 4.6 on google, not more. We found it hard to find good pubs around Snowdon that weren't catered towards tourists and high foot falls where businesses didn't need to try.
The pub is clean and has Snowdon Craft beer on draft, no Fosters or Carling (which for us was a plus). It also has a small pretty garden and allows motor homes to stay over night. The food is home cooked and you can tell this is true with real chips, handmade sausages and great deserts. I can't understand why someone commented that the food is of poor quality as we found it to be one of the best in the area. The prices are good and the portions are large.
Honestly don't bother with the pub in Trefriw, small portions, bad quality and expensive. Go here instead.
How this place isn't rated 5.0 baffles me. Wonderful hospitality and outstanding food sourced and cooked with passion by the owner and served in hearty portions at extremely reasonable prices. We liked it so much we went back the next day. A total gem in an increasingly mediocre sea of soulless, overpriced and bland chain pubs.
Excellent food, homemade lamb and mint sausages, fresh mash & fresh veg. I am a fussy eater and their food was amazing, photo does not do it justice. Real ale was great too. Friendly helpful staff, good social distancing which they put before profits. Felt very safe and in good hands, definitely recommend.
We, a group of motorcyclists, stopped here to eat because this pub is located on the road and it was not necessary to turn off the route. Frankly, none of us expected what awaited us! Nowhere else in Britain have I seen such excellent cuisine in a pub. And never met before. And a very beautiful interior that immerses you in the atmosphere of a farm. Thank you for a very delicious lunch from all of us! We often think of this pub when we stop to eat while traveling. No one remembered its name, but I took a photo when I was leaving and almost a year later I found it and the location of the pub. So don't say goodbye!🙂
