Step inside and you’ll feel the hum straight away: the clink of glasses, the aroma of street‑food spices drifting up from the kitchens and the soft glow of pendant lights against exposed brick. Run by local favourites Spirit of Rhyl, our bar sits at the very centre of Queen’s Market, marrying old‑school seafront charm with a modern craft‑drinks mindset. Whether you’ve popped in for a quick half after work, settled in with friends for the rugby, or fancy a cocktail while you wait for your bao buns, our team will make you feel right at home. Fast, free Wi‑Fi keeps you connected, while mixed seating—from cosy booths to high perches—means you can linger as long as you like.
Our draught wall balances familiar favourites with ever‑changing guest lines. Core pours include crisp Amstel, malty‑sweet Cruz Campo, refreshingly dry Inches Cider and fruit‑forward Old Mout Cider. Beyond those taps we regularly bring in seasonal or small‑batch kegs from across Wales and the wider UK, so there’s always something new to discover. Not sure where to start? Ask the team—they’re happy to point you toward a pint that pairs perfectly with your street‑food pick.
Gin is our seaside spirit of choice and Rhyl Gin takes centre stage, distilled with coastal botanicals for a lightly briny, citrus‑led profile. Alongside it you’ll find a concise selection of Welsh and British craft gins spanning herbaceous classics to fruit‑forward pinks. Each serve arrives with a paired premium mixer and a complementary garnish.
Head upstairs to the East Balcony for our self‑serve Tap & Pour stations—perfect for groups who want to sample the beer board without queueing. Grab a prepaid card, choose a glass and pour whatever takes your fancy, whether that’s a full pint of pale ale or a modest taster of something new. Your pours are tracked in real time, so you’re only charged for what you drink, and friendly hosts are on hand to guide first‑timers. With a sweeping view over the entire food hall, the balcony is a prime perch for people‑watching while you sip, snack and soak up the buzz.
