Bistro Bermo

Snowdonia National Park (Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri)


Discreetly hidden behind an aqua-green shopfront, this intimate restaurant delivers a sophisticated menu chock-full of Welsh farm produce and fresh fish. Featuring dishes such as duck breast with walnut crust and daily seafood specials, the cooking is classical rather than experimental, and generally excellent. There are only half a dozen tables, so book ahead.
