Anglesey's caravan park restaurant makes it onto The Good Food Guide's prestigious list of the top 100 local eateries in the UK
In a remarkable turn of events, the Newborough Warren Caravan Park on Anglesey has made a significant mark in the culinary world. Its restaurant, Y Marram, has secured a spot on The Good Food Guide's 2025 list of the UK's 100 Best Local Restaurants. This prestigious recognition highlights independently run and affordable eateries that reflect how Britain is dining in 2025.
Y Marram, nestled within the Newborough Warren Caravan Park, is a testament to the brothers Liam and Ellis Barrie's farm-to-table passion. Their culinary prowess, which includes appearances on BBC Two's Great British Menu, has earned them a loyal following.
The Dining Room in Abersoch, another restaurant on the list, represents Gwynedd. The guide celebrates great food without the high price tag, making these eateries accessible to a wide audience.
Joanna Davies, a Staff Writer for Practical Motorhome and the website, has had the pleasure of experiencing Y Marram firsthand. She travelled to Shropshire and the Peak District with her micro-camper, a converted 2009 Renault Grand Scenic, before returning to Anglesey to explore Y Marram. In her travels, she discovered the campervan lifestyle and the joy of discovering exceptional food in unexpected places.
The Good Food Guide's list was compiled after nearly 60,000 public nominations and follow-up visits from anonymous inspectors. The guide's mission is to celebrate the best of British dining, and Y Marram, with its commitment to quality food and affordable prices, fits the bill perfectly.
While the Paternoster Farm in Pembrokeshire, a farm restaurant and not a caravan park, was also recognised as the Best Local Restaurant in Wales for 2025, the Good Food Guide's list primarily focuses on independently run restaurants within caravan parks. However, this recognition underscores the high culinary standards found in Wales beyond just caravan park venues.
