The hanging lamb was really wonderful with a lovely mint dip. Accompanied with chips and salad it was a great meal. We also had a couple of Tapas dishes as a starter.
Chairs could be a little more comfortable but otherwise a rewarding experience. Owner was very helpful and attentive.

I feel like Anglesey just has all the best food. We've had the best Indian, best Chinese, best fish and chips, and now the best Mediterranean / Tapas food. The name and building definitely do not give the impression that they sell tapas, and inside it is decorated more like a modern pub so unless you read the menu beforehand like we did, you wouldn't know what to expect. They were fully booked when we arrived (luckily we had also booked a table) which was already a good sign. Had to wait a couple of minutes for our table to be ready but got brought through to the lovely atmospheric dining area to be seated.

As you can expect from somewhere selling Mediterranean food, they had Estrella on tap along with other good brands. Big selection of spirits, wines, and other alcohols. We ordered drinks which were quickly brought out. The restaurant must still be adhering to some COVID guidelines as we weren't given individual menus. Instead, each table was presented with a chalkboard with the menu written on. As well as this, not all tables were filled so they must have been staggering the bookings to ensure there weren't too many people in at one time.

For the 4 of us, we ordered one hanging kebab skewer (lamb) and the other 3 ordered 3 tapas plates each. We had 2x king prawns, 2x beef cheek (which I believe was a 'special'), 2x calamari, 1 chorizo, 1 patatas bravas, and 1 chicken wings. Now when I say this is some of the best food we've ever eaten, I mean it. Every mouthful was incredible.

The beef cheek was so incredibly tender, the king prawns were massive and full of flavour, and the calamari was not rubbery in the slightest (something I find you get quite often at restaurants if it's cooked too much). The lamb from the kebab was also so tender and cooked to perfection. The chips are the best kind of chips that are really crispy on the outside then very fluffy in the middle. The coleslaw was also great.

Everything is clearly cooked fresh by very talented kitchen staff. The menu is quite small in terms of options but it just goes to show how they've perfected the items that are on offer. We've been to Benllech about 6-7 times and never thought to try the Beachcomber until this year and we're so mad we never tried it before!! Definitely going to be a place we come to again when we're next in the area. Just for reference, they do request a deposit when booking a table which gets taken off the final bill when paying.

Booked a table as it is a small restaurant. Would have liked the lamb skewers but they had sold out. Hubby had the chicken skewer and really enjoyed it. I had tapas off Garlic King prawns and espinacas con garbanzos and garlic bread. It was lovely and speaking with the chef after he was happy to discuss the dishes. All staff very polite and helpful.

Went here for dinner, and had an absolutely first-class experience. Service was absolutely excellent, I've never had food come to the table so quickly. The servers were helpful and friendly. The food was some of the best I've ever had. The hanging skewers were beautifully juicy and tender, and the tapas was simply bursting with flavour. One of our servers recommended the churros for desert, and we took her up on this recommendation. Our trust was rewarded, as they were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Not only was the whole experience incredible, but the food and drinks are reasonably priced - we had 2 starters, 2 mains, tapas, 2 deserts and a bottle of wine, which came to £100. I have no complaints, and I could not recommend this place more. If you are in Benllech you have to come here, but book in advance as they are a small establishment in high demand - for good reason!

This lovely family owned restaurant was a great find. Very friendly owner/staff and the food was delicious. Everything is obviously home made and the garlic bread is fantastic (same dough is used for pizzas). The tapas were freshly made and the squid was perfect. Very reasonably priced too.

We chose the Beachcomber for the family meal on the last night of our Anglesey holiday and enjoyed it very much. Ambience and food where excellent!

My partner and I had tapas while the teenagers had the kebabs - which they declared to be the best they've ever had. Tapas was delicious and plentiful.

Would definitely recommend.

The host of the apartment we are staying at recommended this place. They went out of their way to accommodate us the same night that we arrived. The food was out of this world, and the staff so incredibly kind. I’ll be dreaming of those mussels in white wine sauce for years to come. Just wow. Made my day
