Guests in our Anglesey holiday cottages ask the same three things about dinner: can we walk there, will they fit us all, and can the dog come?
This guide answers those questions for Isle of Anglesey restaurants, town by town. It uses opening days we checked in November 2026.
Where to eat in Anglesey: the short answer
Book Sosban & The Old Butchers in Menai Bridge for a special night.
For seafood restaurants in Anglesey, Dylan's on the Menai Strait is a strong pick.
For a long lunch near the beach, choose the White Eagle at Rhoscolyn or the Oyster Catcher at Rhosneigr.
Pick by town, because nobody wants to cross the island after pudding.
Menai Bridge: the Michelin star and the strait
Menai Bridge has the island's only Michelin-starred restaurant. Sosban & The Old Butchers is located in an old butcher's shop. It is at Trinity House on the High Street.
It serves one set dinner on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings from 7pm. No menu is available. Dinner costs £175 a head, with a £48 deposit. Sosban cannot cater for allergies, dislikes or other diet needs, so check before you book for picky eaters.
Dylan's opened on the banks of the Menai Strait in 2012 and serves local seafood and pizza.
The Freckled Angel on the High Street does small plates.

Where can a large group eat on Anglesey?

Dylan's in Menai Bridge has space for events outside the summer. Catch 22 offers private hire. The Trecastell in Bull Bay has a function room.
Most dining rooms here are small, and a table for 16 on a Saturday in August is a considerable ask.
The other option is to stay in: Bodorgan Inn sleeps 22 and has its own pub.
Dog friendly often means one table by the door.
Which dog friendly restaurants in Anglesey are best?

Catch 22 takes them upstairs from 10.30am to 2pm, Wednesday to Saturday, and until noon on Sundays.
