About
Whitehall is a vibrant gastro‑pub nestled in the heart of Pwllheli, on the shores of Penrhyn Llyn. Housed in a Grade II listed building dating back to 1818, the venue marries historic charm with a contemporary, art‑filled ambience. From 10 am to 9 pm Monday‑Saturday, and split midday and evening slots on Sunday, guests enjoy a menu that showcases locally sourced seafood—mussels, crabs, lobsters and scallops—paired with an impressive selection of beers, wines and ales. The family‑run pub offers a cosy downstairs dining area and a dedicated private upstairs space with its own bar, making it an ideal spot for intimate gatherings, parties or a relaxed night out with friends. Whether you’re a local patron or a tourist exploring the Welsh coast, Whitehall delivers an authentic Welsh culinary experience, environmental friendliness (gluten‑free, vegetarian and vegan options) and a welcoming atmosphere that invites casual conversation over hearty plates and a glass of cider. The pub’s quirky decor, featuring contemporary artwork by local artists, adds a unique touch to every visit, ensuring there’s always something new to discover. With its friendly staff, excellent value and convenient location, Whitehall is the perfect destination for a relaxed meal, a lively night out, or a small celebration in a historic setting.
