Quick info
About Guildhall Tavern Denbigh
Guildhall Tavern Denbigh occupies a building dating from the 14th and 16th centuries, with sloping, uneven floors throughout. The bar and restaurant open daily, and breakfast options include the Regular Breakfast, The Bull Breakfast and a Vegetarian Breakfast, alongside muffins and breakfast baps. A Sunday roast is also served. A fireplace sits in the bar, and dogs are welcome throughout. Accommodation runs alongside the bar, including small attic double rooms with low headroom in keeping with the building's age, and breakfast is available to guests for an extra charge. A beer garden sits up a set of stairs on a hillside plot, and a small car park at the back offers first come, first served parking with limited spaces. A separate events area hosts open mic comedy nights.

Customer Review Summary
The Sunday roast draws the strongest praise, with one diner describing plates left more or less empty after a group of eleven was seated quickly on a booking. Close behind, breakfast is repeatedly called a highlight, with reviewers noting plenty of choice, though one mentions the coffee machine could use replacing. The historic building itself, a 14th and 16th century coaching inn with sloping floors and creaking woodwork, is described as adding character rather than detracting, and a hidden beer garden with a view is also mentioned. Staff are consistently called friendly and accommodating, from bar service to a last-minute booking that rescued a baby shower after another venue fell through. The main recurring caveat is parking, described as minimal, around the corner, and requiring a £2 evening payment, with one reviewer noting the unseen car park can feel insecure. Rooms are called quaint rather than upscale, fitting the building's age.

“Booked to have food here, 11 of us altogether, we had plenty of space and we were seated quickly as we had booked. The menu seemed decent. I opted for a Sunday roast and it did not disappoint. The food looked so good and tasted far better. All plates were more a less empty. Unfortunately no room for desert. Would definitely recommend and will definitely visit again if were in the area. Thank you.”
