Where to Eat

We're a small village with a lot of choice for our size. In summer it's heaving, and in winter half of it keeps shorter hours. Here's where we actually eat.

Takeaway and casual eating

  • Scarlett's Fish & Chips, High Street. There's been a chippy at Arfon House since the 1970s, and it's been Scarlett's since 2015, now with a sister shop in Trearddur Bay. Get it wrapped and walk two minutes to the sand, because that's the whole point. Hours depend on the season, staff and weather, so check their Facebook or Instagram first.
  • Aydin's Pizza, Beach Road. Pizzas and burgers a stone's throw from the beach, and on Beach Road since 2011. Its hours vary through the year, so check before you go hungry.
  • Pat's Shack at The Oyster Catcher. A hatch by the dunes that opens daily when the weather allows.
  • Dreamboat, Porth Tyn Tywyn (summer pop-up). Organic sourdough pizza served from a restored 1968 Mercedes in the dunes just down the coast. It runs for a few weeks in late summer. Watch their Instagram, @dreamboat1968, for dates.

Pubs and bars

  • Y Morfa, Ffordd Maelog. The proper village pub, and a free house.
  • Sandy Mount House bar, High Street. Log fires, real ales, craft beer, gins and cocktails. Its hours can shift with the season.
  • Will's Bar at The Oyster Catcher. The downstairs bar by the dunes.
  • Medra, High Street. This was Starvation until March 2026. The new owner, Huw Owen, an Anglesey man and first-language Welsh speaker, renamed it after the island's nickname, Gwlad y Medra, the land of can-do. It's a relaxed beach bar with cocktails, and live music is planned every Friday and Saturday.

Beachfront cafés

  • The Surf Cafe, 1 Beach Terrace. As close to Traeth Crigyll as you can get with a coffee in your hand. Its hours change with the season. It doesn't take bookings, so just turn up.
  • Café Notos, 4 Marine Terrace, High Street. A small, lively café a couple of minutes from the beach. Walk-ins only.
  • Chaplin's Ice Cream & Coffee Bar, High Street. The village's ice cream stop, right in the middle of the High Street.

Restaurants

  • Sandy Mount House, High Street. The smart-casual option, a contemporary beach-house restaurant with rooms. They recommend booking.
  • Mojo's, 7 Marine Terrace. In the village since 2005 and now on its third generation of owners. Go for the crêpes and galettes, or the Thursday steak night. Book online.
  • Blue Olive, upstairs at Y Morfa. Mediterranean food, cocktails and wine. Check their Facebook for the latest opening days.
  • The Oyster Catcher, Maelog Lake. Built on the site of the old Maelog Lake Hotel, which Dennis and Elsie Clutton ran until the late 1970s. The Timpson family took on the derelict building in 2009. It's a few minutes' walk from Traeth Llydan.
