The Hand at Llanarmon

Really lovely hotel and restaurant. My son declared it the best chicken and ham pie he’d ever eaten . My steak one was really good as well. Very generous portion of seasonal veg. Really friendly and quick service. Good a**osphere in the adjacent bar. Highly recommended. I would book this in peak season as I’m sure it is, rightly, very popular

Well the hand and the staff never fail to impress. We visited a couple of days for food and WOW amazing, the lamb OMG well everything on the menu we tried a was lush. Whether you want a restaurant or a cosy pub then this as it all. We eat out at alot of places and this come to the top everytime..

Having dined here a few years ago we decided after a lovely bank holiday weekend in Conwy to take a chance on turning up at this absolute gem of a place having not previously booked a table. We were given a wonderful welcome by a lovely lady who spoke to the chef to find out if he could accommodate who incidentally had worked the whole day on his own. We were shown to a lovely table in the bar area. We cannot fault the place the food was absolutely outstanding, I had the best steak pie I’ve ever tasted in my life, hubby had the steak baguette, he said it was outstanding. Sticky toffee pudding for dessert was absolutely delicious. Not to mention the lovely waitress who could not have been more accommodating. We cannot wait to return I’ve dropped the hint that I would like to stay over next time ( birthday treat) so we can take advantage of the amazing surrounding countryside.

We had a wonderful few days when we met friends at the Hand. It had a lovely a**osphere - Jackie and Johnathan were great hosts, friendly and informative. The food was excellent, the craic at the bar in the evenings was fun, the bed was comfy. It was great to see the drab dreich days of winter being replaced by the vibrant colours of spring. All together, highly recommended.

We had a wonderful one night stay here with our dogs on 1st March for a special St David’s Day celebration. The four course set meal celebrated Welsh food at it's best - great quality food, very tasty and well presented. The staff at this Inn are their best assets - everyone was so friendly and very attentive, with a special mention and thanks to Margo, who was our excellent waitress. Live music entrainment by Marc Macca Jones was great too. A fabulous night - thank you. We'll see you again soon. x

We only booked Sunday Lunch a few hours earlier, when we arrived found a nice selection of local ales good choice of drinks Shown to our table in a spacious dining area with space between tables a rarity these days Great Service , Good Choice 4 of us chose traditional Sunday Lunch well presented, hot hot plates sufficient veg Overall a very enjoyable lunch

Husband and I both ordered for lunch the pies on the menu, neither of us were disappointed. The beef & ale served with chips, toasted seasonal veg (could have had mash or chips), husband had chicken and leek with mash , roasted veg and an absolutely mouth watering gravy/ sauce. They have managed to maintain a warm traditional pub ambiance and serve fabulous former food … the open fire was also a bonus on a cold wet winters day.

First time visiting the hand and it won’t be our last. Really enjoyed our lunch, the food was lovely, we had the beef and ale pie and lamb, followed by sticky toffee pudding and the pane cotta and can’t fault any of it. The staff were all welcoming and we are looking forward to coming back again soon.

Have been coming here for years. It’s without doubt a slice of heaven. Stayed one night in January, fabulous welcome and service throughout my stay. Steak dinner was tremendous, perfectly cooked with perfect accompaniments. Roaring fire, friendly locals and fascinating other guests. Can’t recommend highly enough.
