Where to eat in Trearddur Bay

Updated September 2026

Eating well here is easier than you might expect for a village of this size. From a proper beachfront coffee to restaurants worth dressing up for, our local food scene has surprised more than a few people who thought they were coming to a quiet corner of Wales.

Beachfront cafes

Beachfront cafes

The Sea Shanty Cafe (4.6★, 3,816 reviews) is a well-known stop in the village, and for good reason. Sitting right on the beach front with a terrace that catches the afternoon sun, open Mon-Thu 11:30-22:00; Fri-Sat 11:30-23:00; Sun 11:30-22:00, it does excellent coffee, good breakfasts, and homemade cakes that you can genuinely taste the difference in. The indoor seating is warm and full of local character, and the outdoor tables fill up fast on a fine day. Come early for a fry-up and you'll understand why it's been a fixture here for years.

The Stores (4.3★, 246 reviews) is harder to categorise but it's worth a visit. Part pizza place, part deli, part seafood counter. They do fresh lobster and crab hampers that you can take down to the beach. The pizza is cooked in a proper wood-fired oven and the quality is consistently high, open Mon-Tue 08:30-16:00; Wed-Sat 08:30-23:00; Sun 08:30-22:00. Pick up a hamper on your way to the beach and you've got the makings of a very good day.

Restaurants worth dressing up for

Ocean's Edge (4.4★, 818 reviews) is the place to come when you want a proper night out. The dining room looks out over the bay, particularly at sunset when the water turns the colour of the sky. The menu changes regularly with the seasons and the cooking is thoughtful without being fussy: local seafood, properly handled, with produce from the island where possible, open Tue-Sat 11:00-23:00; Sun 11:00-22:30; closed Mon. It's a restaurant worth dressing up for.

The Bay Restaurant (4.0★, 23 reviews) at the Trearddur Bay Hotel is more accessible but no less enjoyable. Seasonal menus that lean heavily on local produce, a dining room that opens to the terrace overlooking the bay. For a relaxed evening where the setting does half the work for you, it's hard to beat, open Mon-Sun 09:00-23:00.

Catch 22 (4.7★, 1,172 reviews) in Valley is inland from the bay but it draws a loyal local following for good reason. A proper neighbourhood restaurant with a gastropub sensibility: confident cooking in a room that actually feels alive. The steak and chips is excellent and the cocktails are worth the trip alone, open Wed-Thu 10:30-14:00, 17:00-20:30; Fri-Sat 10:30-14:00, 17:00-21:00; Sun 10:30-19:30; closed Mon-Tue. Well worth the drive.

The Seacroft (4.3★, 1,747 reviews) has built a reputation as the gastropub in this part of Anglesey. Locally sourced ingredients, a menu that changes with the seasons, and a dining room that strikes the right balance between pub and restaurant. The Sunday roast is properly good, and in summer the garden is a fine outdoor drinking spot, open Mon-Sun 10:00-22:00.

Restaurants worth dressing up for
Pubs: from a quiet pint to live music

Pubs: from a quiet pint to live music

The Inn at the Bay (4.3★, 607 reviews) is the Trearddur Bay Hotel's own pub, which means it benefits from being attached to a bay-view beer garden. JW Lees beers on tap, a menu that covers everything from a bowl of chips to a proper dinner, and a atmosphere that manages to be lively without feeling like it's trying too hard, open Mon-Sat 12:00-23:00; Sun 12:00-22:30. It's become the default gathering place for a lot of locals, which is usually a good sign.

Farrell's Bar (4.2★, 26 reviews) has a different energy, live music at weekends, a slightly more alternative crowd, and a vibe that feels like it belongs to a proper seaside town rather than a polished resort, open Mon-Sun 18:00-midnight. The place has a genuine following. If you're after something that feels less touristy and more like how pubs used to be, this is it.

Bert's Family Pub (4.6★, 50 reviews) lives up to its name: straightforward, welcoming, popular with families and dog owners, and completely unpretentious, open Mon-Fri 17:00-midnight; Sat-Sun 12:00-midnight. Exactly what a village pub should be and often isn't anymore. No reservations, no attitude, just good pub food and a warm welcome.

The White Eagle (4.5★, 1,810 reviews) in Rhoscolyn is worth the drive south for its position alone, right above the beach with a large outdoor area that catches the sun all afternoon, open Mon-Sun 11:45-22:00. It's a classic beach pub done well: good beer, generous portions, and a crowd that mixes locals with walkers finishing the coastal path. After a morning on Borth Wen or Silver Bay, it's a welcome sight.

Takeaway and casual eating

Scarlett's Fish and Chips (4.0★, 263 reviews) is the reliable option when you want something quick and satisfying. The fish is fresh, the chips are proper chipshop chips, and the kids will be happy, open Wed-Fri 12:00-14:30, 16:30-20:00; Sat-Sun 12:00-20:00; closed Mon-Tue. Not much more to say except that when you've had a long day at the beach and can't face cooking, this is exactly what you want.

The Little Indian Chef (4.1★, 132 reviews) does a brisk trade from its location on Lon St Ffraid and has built up a strong local following. The food is reliably good, the service is quick, and it's become a regular fixture for people who live here, open Mon-Sun 14:00-22:00. A sensible option for a night in when you don't want to go out but want something better than a microwave meal.

The Driftwood Bar (4.8★, 132 reviews) at The Beach Motel (4.4★, 563 reviews) sits right on the beach path and does a good line in casual dining: think sharing boards, local seafood, and a decent wine list. It's a nice option for a relaxed evening without the formality of a full restaurant, open Mon-Thu 12:00-23:00; Fri 17:00-20:30; Sat 12:00-23:00; Sun 12:00-22:00 at the Driftwood and Mon-Sat 08:00-23:00; Sun 08:00-22:00 at the Motel.
