Situated in the terminus of the world-famous Ffestiniog Railway and Welsh Highland Railway, steam trains are outside the door much of the year. Often five ales, including from local and Welsh breweries. The bar is adjacent to the cafe restaurant with outdoor seating overlooking the platforms and the scenic coast. Food is served every lunchtime and evening meals Tuesday to Saturday, but check hours out of season. Please note that the bar is open from 12 noon and not from café opening at 9am, and the café closes at 4pm.
