"Haven’t visited this place for a long while and unfortunately after our experience I won’t be rushing to return. Such a shame as previously had really good times here. We arrived and the staff on the bar were to be fair very helpful and saw to us straight away, we informed them we had a table booked and she took us straight through, telling us we could place an order for drinks at the table and that it would be table service. They didn’t actually come to take our drinks order for over 20 minutes. Finally took our drink order and then had another 25 minute wait until the drinks arrived! In this time we had placed our food order and it was only that I asked the waiter taking the food order where our drinks were that he went to check. Otherwise, who knows how long we would have waited! Water was requested and arrived room temperature with red hot glasses straight out of the dishwasher, the result being Luke warm table water. No ice was offered. The food was VERY slow to arrive, we only ordered one course but we waited 50 minutes from ordering to the food actually arriving. And when it did it was Luke warm, and tasteless. I had the lentil and mushroom tagliatelle which was a tiny portion at a whopping £16, Luke warm and with absolutely no flavour at all. The other main ordered was nut roast, which looked nice however the feedback was that the nut roast was like packet sage and onion stuffing mix with some nuts sprinkled on top. Unfortunately we won’t be returning. Food was overpriced, Luke warm, small portions, long waiting times and seriously bland. Someone needs to buy them some herbs and spices and get some depth of flavour in those dishes!"

"We came to chirk with our caravan and stayed at the local caravan club site and decided to find somewhere for a Saturday evening dinner so we drove down to the town which is very small and found the Hand Hotel and thought we would give it a try we’ll I must say as there were three of us we all had a different starter and a different Main and I have to say the restaurant was quite empty so we thought that’s strange for a Saturday night at 7.30pm anyway we ordered our starters they were served in good time and they were delicious I had the soup that was butternut squash and carrot it was delicious my wife had fish cake and she was very pleased with that and our friend had patty which she also enjoyed for our main course I had the Cod chips; with mushy peas very very nice chips were Amazing my wife had chicken New Yorker which she did enjoy her only issue was that it came with the sauce over it and as nice as it was there was far too much would had preferred the sauce to be on the side to add for yourself our friend had the Salmon which she really enjoyed but again there was too much Sauce would have been better again on the side so you could add it yourself we all really enjoyed our meal the portions were very good so much so we had no room for desert much to my disappointment as the thought of blackberry Apple crumble with Custard would have been most enjoyable as the whole experience at the Hand Hotel was most enjoyable and the Staff were very polite and pleasant would definitely recommend this place we will definitely be using it again on future trips to Chirk I should also mention that we thought that the price was very good we had three starters three mains and three Drinks for only £63 which considering how very nice it was I felt was very good thank you to the staff for their polite and professional manner well done to you all ."

"We visited with work for the second time. Last year I was kept waiting for half an hour for my veggie meal and everyone else had finished. This year I arrived 20 minutes early and ordered mine but it was still well over half an hour for me to wait and yet again my vegetables had gone cold and everyone else had eaten. The other thing I didn’t like was the only choice of vegetarian meal which was ratatouille and goats cheese spring roll. I don’t like goats cheese and the roll had gone soggy in the bowl of wet ratatouille. As a vegetarian I like to eat with everyone else but it was a disappointing separate meal that didn’t go with turkey trimmings. Why can’t they do but roast or a mushroom wellington with vegetarian gravy? I was very disappointed and won’t be returning for the third year in a row."

"I vomited immediately after eating at this restaurant. The food had a strange smell and tasted odd, but I assumed it was supposed to be that way because it was sour. I was wrong. I spent the entire evening throwing up. The Pashwari naan was burnt but tasty. The other four dishes we ordered were decent. One dish was basically plain yogurt with melted peanut butter and chicken mixed in. Another dish was labeled as not spicy, but turned out to be extremely spicy. The lemon rice was enjoyable."

"We had booked a table for 2 at 4.00pm on a Wednesday afternoon and as such were the only people in the restaurant. Whilst the food was good, using the lunch menu of 2 courses for £8.95, the staff was hard to find. I had to go searching the corridors to find someone to let them know we were there, and then go searching again to ask for our bill! When she did come to the restaurant, the waitress was friendly and pleasant. Perhaps they could have a bell for customers to ring on the bar? Otherwise, we enjoyed our meal despite the lack of attention."

"Visited for a Sunday lunch. Drinks were great , but the wait time was rather long and when the roast came out some of it we couldn’t even cut. The roasties seemed like they had been sitting out for a long time as were like rocks and the gravy was that watery you could hardly even see it on your plate. I think these 2 elements are the most important part of a roast besides the meat, so for them to be served the way they were was really disappointing. The desserts were lovely and very tasty, just a disappointing roast unfortunately."

"I was really disappointed last night when I went to a restaurant I have visited a couple of times recently and had enjoyed the food. However, last night we had booked a table for 6 people to celebrate my son's birthday. When we arrived, we were given a limited menu with only 5 or 6 options for starters and mains, and 3 dessert choices. We ordered drinks and were later informed that some items were not available as they had run out of 2 starters and all mains except for burgers or fish and chips. Despite the restaurant being quiet at 7pm, we decided to finish our drinks and go elsewhere. The staff then offered us other off-menu options like chicken, gammon, or lamb rump to convince us to stay. We decided to stay and ordered our food. The starters were good, but the burgers were dry and burnt. The gammon and rump were delicious, but when we tried to order more drinks, they had also run out of several items. To top it off, my husband found a false eyelash folded in his napkin."

"On my first visit to Wrexham, I stopped for lunch at the Wynnstay Arms. The staff were clear on the ordering process, with drinks and food selection placed at the bar, making it partly self-service. After waiting for 15 to 20 minutes, our starters of wings, ribs, and mushroom soup arrived. The soup was lukewarm and lacked flavor, and the bread roll was hard and almost stale. The ribs were decent, but it seemed like the soup had been sitting for a while. However, my 8 oz rump steak was cooked perfectly to medium rare as requested. My wife's jacket potato, tuna, and salad were satisfactory. We paired our dishes with a glass of Chilean merlot and a tonic water. Overall, the experience was somewhat disappointing with a mix of results. The delays in the food seemed to come from the kitchen. The restaurant had about 7 occupied tables, but not all were being served food. Despite the comfortable seating at a window table, our final impression was not the best."

"This establishment came highly recommended. Sadly it failed to meet our standards. The food was well presented, but so salty the flavours were hidden and left you grabbing for water. There is really no need for so much salt other than trying to mask tasteless food or the chef has lost his taste for salt . Cut the salt let the flavours of the food come through. The front of house staff , I would of expected a better dress code , not jeans and trainers . The young lady with tattoos on her arms on full show is rather tasteless and some people find these quite offensive, long sleeve blouse needed ."

"Normally an alright place to go. Not tonight. Popped in for a quick pint. Toilets were filthy, stank of piss. No wonder with the floors being caked in it and my shoes sticking as I walked. Everyone in the bar was foul, even the staff. The atmosphere was horrible. After waiting ten minutes, then moving round the bar, we were served. It was last orders, but we were only having one. Pint looked awful. Sat down then 2 minutes later, the barman comes out saying they’re closing in about 1 minute and we need to leave. When challenged on why he still served us a pint even though they were closing immediately, he just walked away. Continued to rush my terrible pint, then the presumable owner came out saying they’re closed now and we need to leave. Then turned the lights off and locked the doors. This was all at 9.15, when the place says it’s open till 10. Terrible customer service. Rude staff. Awful pint. Wouldn’t waste your time when there’s better places in Wrexham that actually appreciate custom. You’d think after the bad reputation this establishment has had recently they’d appreciate people visiting. It’s a wonder the place is still open."

"I was my Retirement and birthday Saturday 11, we booked this meal because there was 13 of us and as my niece said below on her review it was a great afternoon with the exception of one thing for me. All went well the cake arrived and then I asked my daughter and nieces partner to order puddings for those who wanted them. As the puddings were coming out I ask the lady can we have....and before I said anymore she was saying we are very busy sorry the puddings are late. I was not complaining about time which I told her about the second time. I was asking for a teaspoon for my granddaughter to eat her ice cream when she said 'it comes with a teaspoon. ' How was I to know? Also adults have bowls of ice cream my mum used to so I was expecting a desert spoon so to save her legs was asking for teaspoon, she was a bit snotty with me. I have been in catering and had a cafe business over 30 years and no way would my girls speak to any customer that way. Put your listening ears on and don 't assume!"

"I attended a breakfast meeting with my colleagues last week, and we had a wonderful experience. Our waitress, Alex, was delightful; she kept our cups filled with tea and coffee, engaged in conversation, and was genuinely charming and well-presented. It was clear that she truly enjoyed taking care of us, rather than just going through the motions of her job. The food was excellent, with generous portions that were worth the price. I can definitely see myself becoming a regular here!"

"We spent three nights near Pontfadog in late October 2019 while on vacation from the US, and spent two of those evenings enjoying dinner at The Swan. If we lived around here, we would gladly join the ranks of the obvious regulars that inhabit the bar area. Even as visitors, we were warmly welcomed. The bar isn't huge but is well provisioned. There was an adequate selection of beers and ales on tap, including several local and regional choices. The wine list also focused on quality and value rather than extensive selections. The food choices ranged from your pub classics like fish and chips and shepherd's pie, but also included a variety of special dishes. Everything we tried was spectacular, but the absolute highlight of our meals there were the pies. There is always a pie on the menu, but what's in the pie changes week to week. On the night, the pie was smoked pheasant and leeks. Absolutely amazing! A generous serving, it still left room for a bit of sticky toffee pudding with custard. Rich and moist and swimming in a bath of caramel and custard, astonishingly good. A group of ladies at the next table were watching our pudding come to the table, and were trying to be inconspicuous as the watched and listened to us rhapsodize over the first few bites. But I noticed that several of them also ordered the pudding! This is a wonderful little place, where even complete strangers feel like locals. The kind of place where people talk to each other from table to table. The kind of place I wish we had around the corner from our home here in the US."

Food is excellent Have also attended a buffet supplied by them. Left the best until last match day hotdog! Still finishing it by the time I got to the ground m Traditional hotdog sausage in a crusty baguette stacks of onions and red sauce. Tremendous!"

"We called here for a lunch out of the blue. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed. It took ages to be served at the bar for drinks although it wasn't that busy, the food took around an hour to come and some of it was wrong, we overheard one member of staff speaking rather unprofessionally to another table as they were adamant they had not made a mistake but judging by our meal being slightly wrong they probably had. Two of the meals didn't come with what they were supposed to via the menu. Two puddings came out but mine didn't for another 10-15mins or so by which point the other two had finished theirs as it was going cold. Overall we were quite disappointed and I'm not sure we will return. It's a shame as the decor was quite nice and it was overlooking some lovely views."
