My wife and I visited The Snowdon for the first time on Friday 25th October 2024. We managed to park uphill from The Snowdon and walk down to the pub for a half before we left for home. The bar area is accessible and easily coped with a group of 9 gentlemen that had arrived on a pub crawl all standing by the bar whilst they sorted their drinks order out .
At first sight I hoped they had Tim Taylors Landlord Dark ( used to be Ram Tam ) on but it was the ordinary Landlord with a Halloween pump ! The Landlord was rather 'fresh' and lacked the depth of taste of some my previous tastings.
We sat in comfortable leather seats in an alcove to rear of building . It had a lovely huge ' Snowdon ' etched mirror and a framed poster advertising a week of Concerts in Llandudno by the Beatles from 1963 .
The toilets were down 14 steps and certainly would be a struggle to get back up after...

Reserve your table! also cannot find how long a reserved...
Read moreGreat selection of ales, nice food, nice decor /clientele and great service. We asked what time the food was served until and they advised us to order within the next 10 minutes or so and the kitchen could fit us in. We asked that our table be given a wipe over and they came down straight away and did it (although one member of was staff going round doing it regularly anyway) They were more than happy to let you sample the ale. Only one downside of the visit, was that one could smell the men’s toilets as soon as you went through the doors to go down the stairs. Maybe it was a one off, but I suspect some ventilation would help and a regular mop (they were tidy enough with good decor and hand wash etc) I’m still giving them full marks for the...
