About

A coaching inn with origins in 1472 on Castle Street in Beaumaris, where Charles Dickens and Samuel Johnson both stayed — one of the most historically significant pubs in North Wales. The Brasserie upstairs serves confident Modern British cooking from a seasonal menu, while the bar below keeps the fire going and pours a proper pint in a room full of original timbers and centuries of good conversation. Book the Brasserie well in advance in summer; the bar is walk-in and almost always worth it.
