Food, Views, and Coastal Charm: Discover Dylan’s in Criccieth and Barmouth

If you're planning a getaway to Snowdonia and seeking a blend of scenic beauty and exceptional dining, look no further than Dylan’s Restaurants. With locations in Criccieth and Barmouth, these establishments offer more than just a meal—they provide an experience that captures the essence of North Wales.

🍽️ Dylan’s Criccieth: Dining with a View

Nestled on the coast of the Llŷn Peninsula, Dylan’s Criccieth is housed in the iconic Art Deco Morannedd building, designed by the renowned Clough Williams Ellis in the 1930s. Just a stone’s throw from the beach, the restaurant offers panoramic views of Criccieth Castle.

Dylan’s Criccieth is celebrated for its commitment to local produce, offering a menu that features fresh seafood, locally sourced ingredients. There is a set menu for children, colouring sheets - all hot drinks come with a chocolate so we save these for the childrens desert sometimes to cut down on the meal cost when we’ve eaten out a lot. There is a great ice cream shop in Cricceth that we recommend - Cadwaladers.

🌊 Dylan’s Barmouth: A New Coastal Gem

In April 2025, Dylan’s expanded its culinary footprint with a new restaurant in Llanaber, just north of Barmouth. Situated in the former Norbar building, the restaurant boasts stunning views of Cardigan Bay and the Llŷn Peninsula. 

Dylan’s plans to open a General Store in Barmouth's high street later in 2025. This store will feature a range of savoury bakes, cakes, and patisserie, alongside products from other Welsh food brands, bringing a taste of Dylan’s to the heart of the town.

Our holiday home is ideally located to explore the stunning landscapes and beaches of Criccieth and Barmouth. Whether you're enjoying a leisurely meal at Dylan’s or embarking on a coastal walk, our accommodations offer the perfect base for your adventures.
