Formerly known as the Red Lion and at one time situated close to the water’s edge.  Dating back to the early 17^th century and is one of Pwllheli’s oldest buildings.  It is possible that Dr Samuel Johnson whilst visiting Pwllheli in 1774 had a drink in the establishment.  

In 1802 the first Wesleyan preached on the premises and later on a private school was established at the Penlan.

The bar lounge has a flagstone floor and beamed ceiling.  A Games room is situated at the back.
