We visited the pub to eat lunch on a quiet weekday in Llanberis.Food & drinks: Delicious and wholesome food in generous portions. Our party of 6 were all overwhelmingly satisfied in our meals. I enjoyed the steak and ale pot pie, with a deliciously seasoned puff pastry lid atop a pie mix brimming with chunks of meat in a rich gravy, accompanied by peas and proper chips. My wife couldn’t finish her huge bowl of pasta, which again came with a huge amount of chicken breast meat and bacon. Others enjoyed a generously topped pizza and a hearty chicken burger.Noteworthy details: Dog and child friendly. Lots of outside space including laundromat unit.

Breakfast from 8am was just what we needed! Kind and accommodating service. Absolutely fantastic, thank you. Definitely would recommend.

Large rustic pub at the foot of Snowdon, very close to the steam railway. We had plenty of space inside, and there were plenty of tables outside. There is a large car park for guests. The Heights is dog friendly. We visited in March 2024 and ordered lunch for 6. The service and food were very good with generous portions.

The food was basically inedible, it was very drab and had the vibe of a dodgy student union bar . 5 mins after ordering, 2 scabby dry beef burgers arrived, with a family sized portion of chips. The worst £30 I have ever spent. Pints were fine, food was shocking. Not what you want after climbing a mountain.Food & drinks: Inedible food. Do not eat here unless you're near death.

First class tasty food and large portions too.

We tried there chicken and beef burgers and we were utterly disappointed by the taste and ingredients of it.. fries were not crispy and lack flavour and were totally bland..❌❌The burger itself was dry and without any flavour.. they had put raw onions in it and seems like a total waste of money.. ???? no value of money at all.. wont recommend at all ???❌Food & drinks: Bad taste and no value for money..???
absolutely vile place, don't have a good word to say about it!floors were visibly dirty where people walk, tables so sticky that you had to peel your glass off, absolutely stunk.received the wrong dish and was told by the manager that it was our fault and its what we ordered, then refused to give a refund when we said we wouldn't eat it.was also stared at by locals and spoken to terribly by staff, which i can only assume is because we have strong scouse accents and they seem to hate everyone that isn't welsh.dire place, better restaurant in the hotel less that five minutes down the road.

We popped into the pub to have a meal tonight and first impressions weren't great but at least we would have somewhere to eat. As my daughter and I are both vegetarian we ordered the quorn 'chicken' burger and the cauliflower and red pepper curry. The food arrived- and my daughter was given a chicken curry not vegetarian!! I was unsure as to the origins of my burger too. The chips were disgusting and under cooked. I complained and asked for a new curry. Unfortunately my daughter, who is autistic, was distraught that she could have eaten meat! I cancelled the order and asked for my money back to initially be told by the female that its what I ordered! I stated that I wouldn't do that when we are both vegetarian. She called the male over and didn't even say anything he just shoved the card machine in front of me so I could have a refund for the curry. He would not refund anything else even though it was awful. At this point we were leaving and my daughter was sobbing. The female asked what was wrong and I said it was because of the food and she didn't really seem bothered! Would not recommend based on our experience, or any of the other reviews I have since read. I'd recommend the Royal Victoria Hotel up the road - friendly staff, nice place and good food.

Needed somewhere close to the holiday cottage to have tea. Service was prompt. Reasonable prices. Menu choice was varied and allowed for vegetarian diet.

Tried the heights for food, but we’re met with nothing more than disgust on entrance. We were told the kitchen had closed, then a local ordered food no problem straight after we tried. As weren’t Welsh (Newcastle) we were told to try somewhere else. The staff and owners are the type of low life little specimens who abuse the little power they have, if they were in the police they’d be another Wayne Cousins. Avoid at all costs if you’re not a local, atmosphere is dismal and the food already served looked pathetic

Don't bother, the dragon social club is better down the road. Rude staff and the whole place is scruffy.
