yes its nice to let someone else cook and wash up occassionally, we like to have a night out when we can afford it Prezzo or cafe rouge are our favourites followed by indian, a lunchtime venue would be a harvester.

 

been many a year since i was up the llangollen so can't help much as its all changed i would expect.

hi. the mill is good in llangollen . bob

The Red Lion is good in Ellesmere..

Casp'

 

 

Seconded!

 

Actually, no, The Red Lion in Ellesmere is SUPERB. I can't think of another pub anywhere that offers such VAST meals for such reasonable prices.

 

It is a little further from the wharf than other pubs in town, but well worth the 5 minute walk to get there (keep going right-ish from the wharf, and you will find it by the church)

Seconded - the Corn Mill is fantastic. Good food and the best selection of beers.

 

Between the two, Jack Mytton's is thee best food for miles around.

Thanks for the suggestions and love the picture Tim

Yes but the beer is not kept very well, in fact it's poor and expensive (£3.10pp) Closes at 3pm on the dot - no exceptions, until 6pm

 

Re eating, try the Gallery in Llangollen, the Bridge Inn at Chirk Bank and Poachers Pocket at Gledrigg just before Chirk. The latter has a good playground for kids and special offers on most of week.

Not sit down, but if a takeaway is on the books, I thought the Chinese in Ellesmere was superb.

The narrow boat Inn at bridge 5w does a decent steak and chips
