Y Bryncynan in Morfa Nefyn reopens following £1m investment

05 August 2020

Locals and visitors to Wales have said ‘Croeso’ to a new look for the Y Bryncynan pub, located at the main cross roads at Morfa Nefyn on the Lleyn Peninsular.

Set in picturesque grounds, with some parts of the building understood to be over 200 years old, the family-friendly pub has had a complete transformation following a £1m investment by Stockport based brewers Robinsons. The re-opening which was originally planned for late March had to be delayed, but with restrictions now being lifted, the pub has re-opened completely.

Retail Operations Manager, Ellis Wardle explained: “Y Bryncynan is a great example of a pub that can be enjoyed by everyone no matter what age. We were very keen to ensure that the pub can serve both its local community around Nefyn and Pwllheli, whilst still catering to holiday makers who travel to the area. I know Heidi and the team are raring to go and can’t wait to welcome everyone back. We also have all the necessary COVID secure measures in place to ensure customers feel as safe as possible.”

Internally, the pub has benefited from a new oak bar and has been tastefully re-decorated while retaining all the character of the original building. The design carefully retained the ‘locals’ bar area.

General Manager at Y Bryncynan, Heidi Bakewell, said: “It’s been a long couple of months, and we’ve been itching to reopen, so you can imagine the relief now that we have finally opened our doors again. The changes to the pub are incredible and we’ve already had many of our locals express how pleased they are with the new look.”
