Watsons Bistro

Busy restaurant but great menu and food delicious. Parking a bit of a challenge if you don't know Conwy

Lovely local restaurant. Food quality was very good and staff very friendly.

Warm atmosphere and tasty food. The eary-bird menu was good value and portions generous. Strongly recommended.

Watson's is simply the best place in Conwy Town to eat. The staff are friendly and efficient without being fussy and the food is prepared and presented to a very high standard with imagination and skill. It is truly a hidden gem.

Watsons never let's you down when it comes to lovely food and excellent service,some places rush meals out,but at watsons you can take your time and have a break in between courses, will definitely be going again,and have also booked Christmas lunch there.

Enjoyed the night but steak was over cooked despite asking for medium rare and at £22 I expect it to be right. Dessert ice cream melted very quickly into a weird blob. Staff nice, place nice but not worth the money they charge.

Lovely food, great choice and excellent service. Been here many times before and would certainly recommend. Need to book as it can get busy!

We went to Watson’s on a Saturday night and although the place was full we experienced great service and excellent food.

We will definitely be back!

The restaurant was very quiet which initially worried us. There was no reason to worry as the food was freshly cooked and delicious. I would highly recommend this eatery.

After being recommended we thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Watson’s. The food was excellent and service friendly, efficient and welcoming. Will definitely return.

Excellent food and service the lamb was beautiful and sticky toffee pudding amazing

We travelled 1 hour to get to the Bistro as we were holidaying in Porthmadog. We had been there 3 years previously & had a lovely meal, this time we were celebrating Anniversary of 31 years. Unfortunately we did not get same ambiance. My chicken was not cooked and had to be returned to kitchen , I did get an apology and they asked my husband if he would like his meal kept warm whilst doing me another chicken. By the time it arrived I did not have an appetite. We didn't stay for dessert and paid in full with another apology.

Just a very good eating experience. Friendly staff and great food. Value for money.

Always a delight to visit Watsons Bistro, great food and service

I booked here for my mum and myself when we stayed overnight in the delightful town of Conwy. I checked reviews online and I wasn't disappointed. The bistro is so welcoming and the staff polite and helpful. The food was excellent and generous portions. We will definitely return.

We had looked forward to this very much as it was a gift from a friend. We found the restaurant tired we where seated in a corner my husband had a wall to look at. When we sat down we had a shabby cushion on our chairs as the chair had no padding. The food was disappointing. Don’t think we will rush back. Very disappointed

My wife and I have dined here on more than one occasion and have always found the staff very friendly as well as efficient, the menu imaginative and the food delicious.

Excellent restaurant. Our 2nd visit but did not disappoint. The service was outstanding and the food excellent. Will return next time we are in the area.

Very good food and service. Wouldn’t hesitate in returning

Last visit was a few years ago and was fine but not impressive. What an improvement! The lunch menu offers a good choice of absolutely delicious food at a very reasonable price. A lovely surprise - will definitely visit again soon.

Went for dinner with my family for a late dinner. My husband is celiac so asked what was suitable and the waitress was easily able to advise, in detail, what he could and couldn't have. We have never experienced service like that before. Food and service were exceptional. Will definitely be back again

Would definitely recommend, the food was amazing and the staff very friendly and knowledgeable.

Will definitely be returning. Well done Watsons Bistro, keep up the good work.

We came upon the Bistro when out for a walk. It doesn’t look much from the outside but it’s lovely inside. Food delicious, not a great choice of drinks but the food more than made up for it.

Sea Bass and Lamb Shoulder were fantastic! Loved this little nook in Conwy.

We have eaten at Watson's on several occasions; and will continue to go back. The food is always simply delicious.

Their meals were amazing. Every staff is very kindly. I absolutely recommend you this bistro and you can see the historical castle wall if you have an outside seat.

Excellent food and service makes us regular diners there.

We had a wonderful evening meal at Watsons.
Fantastic service.
Good choice of menu.
Could not ask for more.
Really excellent

V enjoyable meal - however table booked via 3rd party app that didn’t reach restaurant as staff surprised when we arrived as no evidence of our party’s booking/reservation in their records/diary - fortunately they found us a table and quality of food and experience was great - certainly recommend and return ourselves!

Excellent menu and the food was fantastic. Had the seafood fritters followed by the ox cheek.

Lovely evening with great food and service! Hope to be returning soon!

super meal. Service was excellent and unobtrusive. Great evening

Many thanks had a superb meal ,staff were excellent, food was very good highly recommend

Wonderful menus and the early bird is excellent value. Good selection of wines at reasonable prices and excellent service. A lovely ambiance throughout the evening. Would definitely recommend and return for a go at the a la carte menu.

Birthday meal in this hidden gem in Conwy Food was brilliant and lots to choose from on the menu Staff were very friendly We will be going back again soon

Met a few friends for a catch up over an evening meal. The food was superb, we chose 3 different mains....all were delicious and well presented. The staff are friendly, the ambience is good. Will definitely be back

A pleasant bistro very nice for our last holiday night. The ambience and service was very good, unfortunately some ingredients of dishes were over salted. When this was mentioned, the staff were quick to find replacements. The solero icecream was delicious it enhanced a rich pannacotta. I would recommend this restaurant.

Warm welcome from friendly staff. We ordered from the early bird menu, very good value with a good choice of starter, main and dessert. The service was quick, but not rushed and the food was beautifully cooked . The fresh bread served as a nibble while we waited was delicious. Of particular note was the roast Welsh lamb, and the homemade ice cream. Definitely worth a visit!

Fantastic meal. One of the best I have ever had. Food , service, ambiance all superb. I will be back here whenever I can. Thank you Watsons for making our evening fantastic

This was a good dinner rather than outstanding. The monkfish and the cod were good, but there was no flavour in the shrimp risotto and the mashed carrot tasted very strange (cardoman perhaps, but too strong). To us also the restaurant was a bit lacking in atmosphere.
However, what really concerned us was a lack of cleanliness. Our table surface was tacky to touch, the top of the pepper pot was dirty and had not been wiped for some time, and the place mats (brown with a cream edging) were grubby and frayed around the edges. The candle holder on the table had been used but not cleaned for a while, and generally the furnishings looked tired and worn. Our table looked out onto a patio where the awning was torn and held together with bulldog clips. Even the card machine used to pay was sticky and had a cracked front. Also the menu on the outside of the building doesn’t reflect the one you are handed inside - again in our view just a lack of attention to detail. If the management doesn’t pay attention to the customer facing bits, you do wonder what happens where the customer cannot see?
