Recently refurbished rustic, quirky pub with large tropical style beer garden. We are an award winning real ale pub featuring in the Camra good beer guide with a large selection of real ales, ciders, craft beers, perrys, wines and spirits. We have two real fires in the winter and a picturesque beer garden with palm trees, lots of flowers and an outdoor woodfired pizza oven. In the winter we serve pizzas using homemade dough every Friday and Saturday night and we have special food nights. In the summer we have a fuller menu serving rustic sharing boards, salads, burgers, fish, pizzas and more! We are a dog friendy pub.

This really is a hidden gem. We have been frequenting this pub throughout the summer since Mark has refurbished the pub.. we absolutely love what he has done to the garden making it very Mediterranean, with outside log burner. The inside is very rustic and very clean. The pizzas are to die for they are cooked on a Woodfired pizza oven best we have ever had and reasonably priced. I would highly recommended this pub suitable for any age. Welcome dogs.

We came to the area to visit family, had been told about this pub so we booked in advance and our table was reserved for us. Staff were friendly and we felt right at home immediately. The waitress took our order and the food arrived very quickly and was great, we each had a different dish and were all really happy with our choices, would have liked a desert too but we were just too full! The pub was quite busy for early evening but the service didnt suffer, local cider is also very good too!!

The Bee Inn is a long established Country Pub that has provided a hub for the community of Eglwysbach village for many years. The Bee Inn has been recently acquired by new owners; the Skelley family. Local to the village and long standing patrons of The Bee Inn, our experience spans two family generations, brining decades of knowledge that have brought new life and passion to the pub and a new experience to the community. Centred at the heart of the pub's revival lies our desire to provide delicious, home-cooked food; it is all freshly prepared using, wherever possible, locally sourced Welsh ingredients. We strive to create a unique country experience, with the local community and businesses at the forefront of our endeavours. Playing a significant role in village life means consistently providing an environment where people feel relaxed and where they know their specific needs and wants will be met and catered for by a familiar face. It is our belief that many people come here because they feel the pub is as much a part of the village community as the people who live in it.

1st visit, and will definitely be returning. £18 for 3 course Sunday lunch. From the moment we walked in we were made very welcome, the staff are lovely and nothing was too much trouble. The menu is on a chalk board by the bar, plenty of choices, 2 had mackerel pate with toast , one had Brie and one had peppers stuffed with cous cous, all very nice. Two had beef, one had lamb and one had chicken all with roasties and gravy and veg brought on a separate dish, all very tasty. Puddings were excellent too, sticky toffee pudding was so light , crumble and custard and brownie, all excellent. Bar drinks were very reasonably priced too. It's not a large inside so booking is essential. So yes we would definitely visit again, and the village is beautiful. Gorgeous church close by.

Stopped in with my son's to watch the sport, and enjoy a good pint, whilst taking my daughter to Uni. The landlord was excellent, friendly, thorough and following the COVID guidance to the absolute letter. The beers where kept really well, table service and contactless payment. With my daughter in Uni, I hope to be able to enjoy a beer or two over the next few years.

I found this nugget on the back of a recommendation from a local Bangorian. The owners Keith and his better half (????????) couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly, thank you for being so welcoming and helpful! I went to the university here 20 years ago and frequented the student-type places and other pubs in the student areas. They were many leagues below The Mostyn Arms. Quality drinks, great ambience, welcoming decor, pool table, inviting kerb-appeal and the place was bustling with friendly locals (a couple of them helped to find me accommodation - the old-school adage that old Welsh people have racist issues with the English is certainly not present here, and they certainly enjoy their jovial banter and their beer to boot!). It was nice to chat with several tourists too. I bobbed in a couple of days later during my brief return to Bangor (just to see if it was all too good to be true) and it was just the same...this time one of the locals ordered a taxi for me from his phone and some food, which was very kind. When I soon return to Bangor again, I'll be visiting The Mostyn Arms, with friends and family.

This is a great cafe bar & venue. It has a good range of craft beers & wine plus an interesting menu with a fantastic veggie section. As a venue it is intimate with a mixture of chairs & tables most of which are close to the performer. All the staff are happy, helpful & enthusiastic. The 3rd Space deserves to be a huge success.

Fantastic place for great quality beer, expertly cellared by the very knowledgeable landlord. It had a fantastic atmosphere pre-lockdown, friendly people, always plenty of laughter and great conversations. It has operated as a off-licence only since March and continues to offer a fantastic selection of beers on draught and in cans and bottles. Bring your own container for some lovely freshly poured keg beer!
