Chef Andrew Sheridan has returned to his native north Wales to open this stylish restaurant occupying a former cloth shop on the High Street. Take a seat at the counter or a high-topped table and relish the opportunity to delve into a roll-call of terrific Welsh ingredients – be it meaty Menai oysters or caramelised mutton belly from just up the road. Order sharing plates from the à la carte or opt for the chef’s choice if you’re indecisive. A relaxed atmosphere pervades throughout, with both the service team and chefs adept at interacting with their guests.
