Top notch. Visited there last year, the owner was very kind and genuine to us, and his sense of humor would make you feel at home. Look, grab a pint of drink and enjoy his local stories!

Both myself and my husband have been very impressed with the food. My husband is gluten free and the menu available for him offers a wide variety of choice. I am very fussy about my food but time and time again the food is done exactly how I have requested. Outstanding food,staff and pub.

We had planned to visit a few pubs but C&P was so good we stayed, came back after the curry, and I've come back the next day. Great pub; excellent service; congratulations to all concerned. This is the kind of place that makes a town worth recommending (alongside Berwyn B&B, Simon the boat man, and the curry joint Asha's). I think I'll be coming back to Rhyl!

I had visited before and had a very good pint of mild for a very good price and was looking forward to coming back. However, on this occasion because one of our group had a 14 year old son we were turned away even though we wanted to sit in the back room and there was a younger boy at the bar. We were a group of 13. Three of us had already ordered and I can report that the mild is not as good as it once was. Price still OK.

We went in to this pub while we were waiting for our bus it's was about 7:50pm we ordered our drinks and while we were ordering them one of your bar staff started laughing in my face so I asked her what was funny? And she said nothing and looked down and carried on laughing so I asked my niece do I have something on my head? As she was laughing at me and your bar staff started crying and went out the back my niece took our drinks outside and another bar staff said to me you can't take them out side so I said yes okay I will bring them in once she seen I had my sister and my nephew in a pram fast asleep and my niece they said no children after 8 o'clock but it was five to and she wanted us to go and we said no its 5 to 8 we have five minuetes? And doesn't it normally be 9pm when children are not allowed in because a few of your regulars were not happy and said to us it was 9pm kids Arnt allowed in? I have never been so intimated in my life? Just because I was a scouser you have no right to laugh in my face? It's racism!!! We weren't drunk we wanted in drink waiting for the bus? Well at least I got my money back! I certainly will be telling all my friends about this poor service as we all come on holiday here! What a disgrace.

While waiting for a connecting bus to go back to Chester, I chanced upon the Cob & Pen pub in Rhyl. While waiting at the bus station I started to look around for a place to wait, through the aches I could see a nice looking pub so I called in. It took less than I minute to walk there.
Inside was comfortable and traditional with an Irish twist. They had a pub area with various rooms off for Games, Dinning and Snug.
Inside was clean with a pleasant friendly atmosphere and will pop in again next time I am in Rhyl.

Always a great time had at the Cob and Pen. Staff are very friendly and atmosphere is always great while visiting for a quiet drink in the day or a night out on the weekend. Prices are very reasonable also, would definitely recommend to others
