Customer Review Summary

Diners most often praise the home-cooked food, with reviewers singling out a seafood medley and shoulder of lamb, and describing mains as well cooked and generous in portion. Close behind come the desserts, which one reviewer says left the table feeling as though they had a meal and a half, along with a good wine list, cocktails and a dry cider. Several mention the daily specials and vegetarian options alongside the fixed menu. Service is called friendly, efficient and attentive but not overbearing, and several describe the value as excellent, saying it doesn't break the bank. Reviewers also note plenty of space between tables. The only criticism is a single suggestion that the bar add draught beer. One reviewer who visited on a Saturday night says reservations are a must, and another was surprised to find a table after the restaurant had been closed for the season on earlier autumn visits.

    “We’ve been here 2 weeks and eaten in a number of places. In our opinion, Poachers has the best ambience, food and pricing on the Llyn!”
  • Steve Woods
    “We are very hard to please when going out for a meal, so 5 stars is praise indeed. Nice wine, nice food, good service and doesn't break the bank. These pictures don't do it justice, but gives you some idea. They don't skimp on the portions 😋”
