What Simon H likes about Chwarelwr Quarryman Grill:
We visited for our daughter's birthday lunch on New Year's eve. Only a short walk from the Ffestiniog steam railway station. We ate in the vault, for fun, and had it all to ourselves. The food was lovely and even though there were not many staff working due to the date, the food and drinks were served quickly. Highly recommended. View all feedback. What Sam Jolthan doesn't like about Chwarelwr Quarryman Grill:
The service staff at this restaurant were very attentive and accommodating. However, the burger I ordered was disappointing. It was advertised as a beef burger, but it was not made from minced beef. The texture was like biting into a rubber ducky. For £10, I would recommend going to McDonald's instead. View all feedback.

Food plenty, not cheap but well worth price. Very nice pub which looks as if in an old bank. The old volt door still there. Service good.
