I’m not one for writing reviews as many people use them as a negative thing or a way to lie about experiences. Anyway arrived at the white eagle lovely and warm and was welcomed by the GM Claire, shown to the table by the fire in the snug, lovely and warm if I’m honest was too hot had to go to bathroom and remove a layer of clothing, Claire did offer to move but was settled so carried on the fire did die down thank god. We where served by a young lad called Oli, extremely polite and knowledgable took our orders and I did hear talking to the table next to us a credit to Claire and the team for someone of his young age to be so on it. Food arrived well well presented tasty demonised the lot

We sat in as it’s was Nov but lots of outside seating for summer months.

In the summer it is the hub of the place, with everyone going down for a pint, some food and to enjoy the lovely balmy evenings. It shut for complete refurbishment a year ago, for about 9 months and going to Rhoscolyn really wasn't the same! The beer on tap is decent and the wine list is varied. The food has improved tremendously with the new chef and it's amazing that you can be in the middle of nowhere, eating top-notch cuisine at such decent prices. You can't book a table, just turn up, but be prepared to wait, especially Saturday nights in the summer. Loads of parking. Unless you live or are staying in one of the few nearby houses/holiday homes, you would probably have to drive there, but taxi's will take you there from Four Mile Bridge or Valley. A taxi from Holyhead would be pricey. Dog-friendly in the beer garden/terrace. The New Years Eve party is legendary and tickets sell out almost immediately. If you're visiting Anglesey, go to Rhoscolyn, spend the day on the beach, swimming/surfing/wind-surfing, or walking on the headland and enjoying the amazing views, then go to the White Eagle for a pint and some good food. Pretty much the perfect day.

This charming inn is nestled in a picturesque village. The bar and restaurant feature beautiful decor, and the staff is exceptionally welcoming. They seated us in a cozy side room adjacent to one of the bars, right next to a warm fireplace. We ordered a variety of dishes, including a burger and fish and chips, and everything was superb. We also enjoyed a lovely bottle of wine. Based on my quick exploration of the area, there don't seem to be many great dining options, but if you're about to catch a ferry or just arriving, I highly recommend the White Eagle for a meal.
