Caernarfon with its world famous castle is a town steeped in Welsh culture and history and nowhere is that more apparent than the Black Boy Inn which has been offering visitors a place to lay their heads and dine for more than five centuries. The wonderful thing about the Black Boy is the way in which it has successfully married its historic character and unique identity with the comfort and convenience expected in the 21st century. The atmosphere in the bar with its low ceiling, heavy oak beams and thick walls sums it up with a vibrant clientele of locals and visitors taking advantage of well kept real ales that have earned the hostelry a place in the Good Beer Guide. The bedrooms have been recently transformed to a high standard, retaining the unique character and atmosphere by using local, traditional building materials with handmade furniture and quality fittings.
In the restaurant and the bar the food is well tuned to the environment, ingredients are carefully sourced, often local and employed in dishes that are hearty, full-flavoured and refreshingly honest. Expect the likes of Menai mussels, homemade faggots and mash, game pie and a specials board that often features local fish – substantial and delicious fare ideal after a day exploring the history, landscape and culture of this special part of Wales.
