Beaumaris punches well above its weight when it comes to food. This pretty seaside town on the Isle of Anglesey may be small, but its dining scene is anything but. Whether you're visiting the castle, strolling the pier or searching for places to stay in Beaumaris, you'll never be far from a great meal. Here's our locals' guide to the best restaurants in Beaumaris and beyond.
Why Beaumaris Is a Foodie Destination
Anglesey has been called "Môn Mam Cymru" — the Mother of Wales — thanks to its fertile land. According to Visit Wales, the island still produces some of the best seafood, cheese and meat in the country. Add sea salt harvested from the Menai Strait, and you can see why restaurants in Beaumaris have such fantastic ingredients on their doorstep.
Visit Anglesey describes Beaumaris as a town of lively cafés, pubs, restaurants and hotels, with good food to suit every taste. The town even hosts its own Food Festival each September, celebrating Welsh produce with street food, tastings and demonstrations.
Dining at The Bulkeley: Four Venues, One Historic Hotel
If you want variety without leaving the building, The Bulkeley is the Beaumaris hotel to know. This Grade I listed Georgian landmark was built in 1832 and sits in the heart of town, directly opposite the beach and pier. Menus are served from 7.30am to 9pm every day, so there's always something on the menu.
Hansoms Restaurant. For evening dining, Hansoms is the jewel in the crown. Expect creative menus, classic British cuisine and views across the Menai Strait to the Snowdonia mountains. Hansoms also serves a hearty Welsh breakfast and a traditional Sunday lunch that has become a family favourite.
The Coffee House. For a slower pace, the Traditional Coffee House is perfect for coffee, cake and ice cream. Pop in for brunch, a light lunch or a sweet treat — or take it alfresco on the garden terrace when the sun is out.
The Bistro. Prefer something casual? Every menu is also served in the family Bistro, where you can enjoy a cocktail, a bite to eat and a relaxed atmosphere.
Afternoon Tea in the Llewelyn Suite. A trip to Beaumaris isn't complete without afternoon tea. Delicate sandwiches, warm scones and dainty cakes make this Victorian tradition a real treat.
