Booked Father’s Day meal half of the stuff on the menu we didn’t receive like the starter bread and olives and then to finish coffee and truffles we wernt even offered these. Main course was missing some bits too. Food was average and over priced. Placed us in bar area to eat was too noisy and not a very nice setting at all.

Ate on a Sunday portion size wasn’t great loads of roast potatoes and very little vegetables, ordered cauliflower cheese as an extra which was forgotten when it did arrive it looked frozen and not a hint of cheese taste it was a very small portion of 2 table spoons,not value for money.

Four of us went for two evening meals. The staff were welcoming and friendly and on our second visit “Tom Power” was excellent he was so willing to please and was anxious to accommodate any requests. The food was superb and reasonably priced. and we had two lovely evenings - highly recommended. Couldn't have wanted for more and will certainly visit again next time we are in Betws-y-Coed. Excellent value – friendly and a nice place to go

A really lovely pub, very friendly staff, great service, food was delicious and fabulous value. We’d seen the Sunday roast deal advertised outside when we arrived for the bank holiday weekend in Betws y Coed so we immediately booked and weren’t disappointed. £17 for a beef roast dinner and a pint (or other drink) an absolute bargain. The food was all fresh with loads of slices of beef, roast potatoes, cabbage, carrots, peas, roast parsnips, a massive Yorkshire pudding and lashings of tasty gravy. It’s dog friendly and there is a pool table. We’ll definitely be booking next time we’re in the area, well done to everyone at Pont y Pair.

Dear Velesha, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed our Sunday roast and found it to be great value. It's fantastic to know that our friendly staff and service made your visit special. We're delighted you appreciated the fresh ingredients and generous portions. We look forward to welcoming you and your furry friend back next time you're in Betws y Coed. Best regards, The Pont Y Pair Inn Team

We pre-booked for lunch and to watch the rugby. The landlady, landlord and staff couldn’t have been friendlier or more accommodating! We had a perfect afternoon there and can’t wait to return. Thank you all!
