Seagull Hotel
About
The Seagull Hotel is a welcoming, dog‑friendly pub tucked into the heart of Rest Bay, just a short walk from Porthcawl’s seafront. From the moment you step inside, the cosy ambience, friendly staff and real‑ale‑driven beer garden set the tone for a relaxed evening with family or friends. The menu offers a range of classic British pub fare – burgers, curries, grills, and a selection of vegetarian and vegan options – and a full range of drinks to accompany your meal, from local beers and cask ales to cocktails and soft drinks. Sport lovers will find a lively atmosphere with live coverage of Premier League, rugby, darts and even Formula 1 on the indoor screens and sports TV, making it the ideal spot for watching big games. For those who love the great outdoors, the pub’s spacious beer garden provides a sunny haven to enjoy a pint or a quiet spot to lounge after a dog‑walk along the coast. Families benefit from kid‑friendly food, high‑chairs and a dedicated children’s menu, while the venue’s accessibility features welcome guests with mobility aids. Whether you’ve just landed in Porthcawl, are taking a break during a long‑haul bus ride, or just after a dry spell on the beach, The Seagull Hotel offers a warm, family‑friendly environment where you can unwind, dine, and celebrate a special occasion. Book a table for the festive season or a weekend gathering and experience the lively pulse of this local favourite.
