"The setting of the restaurant was stunning, absolutely beautiful. However, the food was overall mediocre and at times lacking. My roast prawns were flavorless, as was the accompanying dipping sauce. The fish pie was also disappointing, lacking in seafood and only containing a few bits of fish. While my soufflé was tasty, it didn't quite impress me. Nothing stood out as amazing, just decent. The atmosphere on a Saturday night was rather lackluster, giving off the impression that the restaurant had lost its spark. I had high hopes for this place, but it felt more like dining in a tourist information center with nice views."

"Restaurant was apparently busier than usual' for a Sunday evening, but then as we had to book a table, the number of covers was presumably expected. Waiting time was significantly longer than we might have expected; first to place orders and then to get served....Waiting staff all pleasant. Food good plenty of meat on the half-chicken and well cooked. Good cup full of chips to go with it, though veg/salad a little meagre."

"I visited this restaurant with my family to celebrate our sister's 75th birthday. The food and service were excellent, all eight of us enjoyed our meals and had nothing but positive things to say. The atmosphere and surroundings were lovely. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning on our next trip to Llandudno."

"I last visited 20 years ago and the decor has not changed, the bench seating could be used as a trampoline it is that bouncy £8.50 for chicken liver pate. The pate was tasty but quite dry, and for the 8.50 you get 3 small slices of Melba toast (I suspect from a packet) and no chutney which you would usually expect to come with it. Main course steak and ale pie. Full of meat, it was good quality but very little flavour except the gravy which was delicious. Chips tasted better than they looked but they were quite dark. £18 a main. Pudding couldn't fault, gorgeous Eton mess and brownie. Staff were friendly, service was quick, lovely pub for a summer afternoon outside. I wouldn't rush back though sadly as the food was edible but I wouldn't say tasty/flavourful."

"Day tripping the north Wales coast, we drove into Colwyn Bay. Our first mistake was to park in the railway station. £4.50 honestly? The clouds had moved away we were in lovely September sunshine, but the town centre depressed our mood. I admit the town still has the Victorian custom of shutting businesses for a day mid week (Wednesday), but it felt dead with hardly anyone around so little to engage with. We called at Porters for a light lunch. There were 3 visible staff 2 customers. Our arrival doubled the customer base. I ordered the Tuna salad which was both delicious generous in portion size. My gripe was that, despite a lack of customers, the time taken to bring the food to the table must have included the time it takes to line catch the fish! My wife's pancakes syrup were also enjoyable. The rest room was immaculate well equipped."
