Due to the position of Conwy on the coach route from London to Dublin via Holyhead at one time there were almost 50 inns within or beside the walled town.
We have four great local North Wales breweries each of which have many award winning real ales for sale in some of the pubs. These include Conwy Brewery, Great Orme Brewery, Purple Moose Brewery and Nant Brewery.

It is said to have been named by the first owner who was a ships captain who sailed between Conwy and Liverpool. According to legend a ghost appears at the Liverpool Arms as a sign that someone is soon to die.
