Tasty carvery which sells out every week

Mark Williams joins the queue to give his verdict

- 

I'D heard about a very popular carvery which was selling out each week. It sounds like families are opting to queue up for a good carvery lunch, especially when you can't be bothered with all the hard work which goes into preparing a Sunday roast.

It was at the Maesgwyn Hall, a large, rambling building previously owned by the local masonic lodge and situated within its own grounds and gardens next to the Wrexham’s now world-famous Stok Cae Ras football ground.

The Maesgwyn Hall closed down during the pandemic and the lease was later taken over by the owners of the well-known Fat Boar pub chain, which has sites in various parts of north Wales.

It is an impressive landmark building, which is centrally located and easily accessible with a large free onsite car park.

It has become a popular watering hole for football fans on match day and there was a baby shower with pink balloons strewn everywhere in one of the function rooms on the day we visited.

The top bar and snug are impressive rooms, flooded with natural daylight and decorated in a neutral colour. Both function rooms have their own bar.

We had booked our place for a carvery via Messenger, which is essential if you want to guarantee a table at this often-sold-out event.

We checked in at the bar and ordered two halves of Wrexham Lager, after establishing they didn’t have any tea or coffee.
