But by far the winner in the culinary stakes was the braised Welsh lamb- cooked perfectly with a well designed jus to complement the lamb, matched with awesome dauphinois potatoes and perfectly cooked greens. Lamb is hard to find in Welsh restaurants and here it is available and stunningly presented and a decent portion served! Also loved the Welsh beer and the Welsh red wine (young but good potential!),

We try to come at Christmas to enjoy the beautiful decorations. It's a delightful venue with a lovely ambience, and a choice of several different rooms, alcoves and cosy nooks. A roaring log fire adds to its warm welcome. The menu is varied and interesting, the food perfectly cooked, absolutely delicious with attention to dietary requirements, the staff friendly and helpful. There is always quite a wait for the meal, probably because it's freshly prepared and beautifully presented. This is not a problem as there is a brilliant collection of games and colouring activities to keep the children entertained. It is our favourite place to eat in the whole of the British Isles!

However we booked, and 6 of us had quite a pleasant meal and some drink for £100. A pretty wide menu at various price points, large portions and pretty well cooked. The conservatory area is too warm all year, I'd try and get a table in the original pub building. You have to order at the bar, but 6 or over and it's waitress service. Pretty little country village and of course there is the small waterfall nearby just a pity the food has taken over so much.

I've recently visited the Castle View for the first time since it changed from being Maggie…read moreMurphy's (many years ago). Before going I checked out the menu on their website and was a bit surprised by the prices, which are quite expensive for what at the end of the day is a pub in North Wales. I'd more or less decided in advance to go for the Welsh steak & ale pie which at £12.95 was just about a fiver more expensive than the steak & ale pie on offer at my more familiar haunt, the Afon Conwy which is just a few miles away. I was hoping for a very special pie! First things first the pub has a large car park so parking was no problem. The interior is very nicely done albeit in a fairly predictable gastropub decor. The dining area lives up to the venue's name with several tables along the side of the building offering views of Conwy Castle just over the water. The staff were friendly and efficient although there weren't many other customers to keep them occupied so they weren't anywhere close to being kept busy. Foodwise I went with the steak and ale pie which was fortunately very good and very well presented. My wife had a Caesar salad which was also excellent. The kids opted for chicken goujons and fish and chips from the kids menu, which at £7.25 each were two of the priciest kids meals we've encountered in this part of the world. Again though they were excellent, the goujon meal came with the two biggest goujons I've ever seen and the fish was a generous portion. The best compliment I give though is that both plates were cleared, something that doesn't always happen with my kids. As always there had to be someone who ordered something I ended up wishing I'd ordered and in this case it was father-in-law whose beer battered cod turned out to be a huge piece of fish which looked to be have been perfectly cooked. As this is one of the cheapest meals on the main menu I think if I ever go back that might be the one to try. All in all the food, and accompanying drinks, were all excellent and every plate was cleared. It's just a shame it's so expensive in comparison to other places in the area. It was noticeable that the place was very quiet when we visited, in fact it was almost deserted apart from the staff. It's a real shame given the quality on offer and I was left wondering if maybe they'd get more business if they knocked a quid or two off the prices? Certainly I'd more inclined to revisit if this were the case.
