Garddfon Inn sits directly on the beachfront of the Menai Straits, offering guests panoramic sea views from the outdoor seating and picnic areas. The location provides easy access to Snowdonia National Park, Anglesey Sea Zoo, and Beaumaris Castle. Free public parking is available along the road for guests arriving by car.

The pub is noted for its community feel and family-friendly atmosphere.
