Mawddach Restaurant
& Bar
( 01341-424020;

; Llanelltyd; mains £13-16; noon-2.30pm & 6-9.30pm Wed-Sat,
noon-3.30pm Sun)
Located 2 miles west of Dolgellau on the A496, Mawddach brings a touch
of urban style to what was once a barn. Slate floors, leather seats and panoramic views
across to Cader Idris set the scene. The food is equally impressive: meat straight from
nearby farms, fresh local fish specials and traditional Sunday roasts (two/three courses
£18/20).

; 2 Smithfield St; mains £18; 10am-3pm & 7-9pm Thu-Sat)
Informal
cafe, wine shop and tapas bar by day, contemporary restaurant by night, this well-run,
low-lit eatery has been serving high-quality food for 25 years. A long-standing favourite
on the Snowdonia scene, it has a healthy wine list and an imaginative menu.
Y Sospan
( 01341-423174; Queen's Sq; breakfast & lunch £3-7, dinner £11-15; 9am-9.30pm; )
In a book-lined
and woody 1606 building that once served as a prison, this relaxed eatery serves fry-up
breakfasts, sandwiches, jacket potatoes and light cooked meals during the day. At night, it
switches to a heavier bistro menu, where lamb and beef play a starring role and most of
the desserts have been on the booze.

; Smithfield Sq; 2/3 courses £22/25; 7-10pm Mon-Sat)
Although
it's located in the medieval cellar of what was once the county gaol, there's nothing re-
motely gloomy about this sophisticated restaurant or its lively kitchen. The menu is short
but well thought out.
