My fourth port of call in Barmouth on Saturday night, was another Marston's establishment near the famous railway bridge over the Mawddach Estuary. You can tell that the interior has a nice, traditional interior. But, it was rather spoiled by a disco with flashing lights. Pedigree is a regular here. Guests were Directors, Wainwright & Sunbeam. There was a mixed set of age groups here and most people seemed to be having a good time, especially the guy dancing away to the music, in front of the DJ's booth. Looks like it would be much nicer on a quieter day.

Great little pub. Relaxing olde world vibe good for a decent pint or two.

A week away (Tuesday afternoon).
OLde worlde small pub on the edge of the harbour, second visit with a year or so in between - much quieter on a midweek afternoon. Beers are generally from the Marstons range but also had Courage Best and one other. One of the better pubs in Barmouth.

A group of us walked the Mawddach Estuary trail and The Last Inn was the first pub we found on our way into Barmouth but what a find!!
The Last Inn has it all. The Guinness was outstanding,the best I have tasted for a very, very long time. My fellow walkers enjoyed the selection of real ales and malt whiskeys. The barman was extremely knowledgeable about his beers and spirits. The restaurant was very busy and the food smelt delicious but I could not be deflected away from my Guinness! Outstanding!!

Barmouth is a wonderful small Welsh seaside town with an excellent beach and a decent vibe harbour and main street. Unfortunately it is desperately short of pubs, and even more desperately lacking in decent pubs, which is a real shame, as it deserves better.
The few outlets in town are a collection of hotels with public bars and a couple of more traditional pubs in the shape of the Tal-Y-Dor and the The Last Inn, and of these The Last Inn is probably the best of a generally average bunch and we found it a comfortable place for a lunchtime snack and a couple of pints.
The pub was being well utilised for our lunchtime visit and now benefits from having three functioning handpumps on the back room bar top and these were dispensing Marstons Pedigree, Hobgobblin and Sunbeam from the Banks Brewery, and on a sweltering hot summers day the Sunbeam hit the spot, as did the traditional pub grub being served.
The Last Inn would be my watering hole of choice if I was staying in or near Barmouth

Decent beer and food looked fine although I didn't eat here. Smells as though something has died in the cellar though.
|
friendly staff, character building, poor ale selection, food ok, smelly toilet aroma spoils experien
|
Stayed in Barmouth twice in the last couple of months.The Last Inn was our local. Pedigree is still a bit hit and miss, but ok on the whole. Selection of beers a bit limited, usual lagers, Banks Bitter, a not much else. Very busy when we were there, but weather was scorching. Couldn't get a seat early evening as they were all reserved for diners. Live music onTuesday, folky musicians everywhere.
|
Only one real ale on offer still, the Pedigree at �3 a pop which is neither my favourite beer nor price, but nice relaxed environment with interesting decor, and we enjoyed the fish and chips at lunchtime. Also nicely near the end of the bridge across the estuary that we'd just strolled over!
|
Quite a cosy old Marstons pub, with a small front bar and a slightly larger room at the back with an exposed ancient cellar and lifeboat memorabilia. Also has some seating out the front, usefully set in cubicles which can keep the worst of the wind out. Just one real ale - Pedigree at �3 - which wasn't much to write home about, but overall it is a reasonably civilised sort of place.
|
Very friendly service and good pub grub although most of the menu does come with chips and it's not cheap at �13.50 for a lasagne. That said, the portions are so huge that you only have one course so the bill never hurts.
Unfortunately only one real ale, pedigree, which although not my favourite is kept well in my opinion.
Purely down to atmosphere alone this is the best pub in Barmouth by a long way and if you fancy a better choice of real ales you can always grab a couple down the Tal Y Don beforehand.
|
Nice chilled atmosphere in this pub but only one real ale available, a very poor condition and overpriced Pedigree (�3 a pint). Looks like the pub is more of an eating establishment than a drinking place.
|
I go here regularly but only once Ive forgotten how awful the beer is in between times. Tal y Don is much better for beer but look for the hidden gem called the Min y Mor.

went in twice during stay in barmouth very dark inside candles on tables very busy on friday night hard to find a seat.pub ok but not best pub in barmouth. barmouth hotel and tal y don better pubs
|
One of the best in Barmouth, tho rammed in the evenings. Beer usually good when I've been. Look out for the spring fed pond inside the pub, complete with fish!
|
Try this pub out of season. It looks good and it is a lot more comfatable
|
We went to this pub based on the recommendations here and it was a disappointment. One real ale in a bad way, the worse food I have ever eaten in a pub for some time (Plaice Dieppe deep fried to kingdom come) and the member of staff serving us was rude. The pub is on the harbour but serves no fresh fish either!
It did seem to be the place that residents of Bramouth dress up to come to. Why I don't know. Maybe i'm being harsh but on the experience we had I give it a 3.
There are not may pubs in Barmouth but I recommend the Tal Y Don Hotel for their food and drink instead of this place.

Family friendly, good value, decent pint. One of Barmouth's few good points.
|
Lovely welcoming pub. Food is in large portions and is great value for money. Definitely worth a visit and is highly recommended.

A great pub to visit day or night

An atmospheric, warm (yet chilled), great place to go. It gives a real taste of the area and has close connections to the nearby harbour. Oh yeah, and it has a pond inside. Brilliant.
