Restaurants in Denbigh

High street under the castle — Saturday market fills tables, not a coast or Ruthin square.

Denbigh restaurants sit on the high street and toward the castle walls — a Vale of Clwyd market town, not Rhyl's promenade and not Ruthin's square. Saturday market is the busy sitting; midweek lunches are quieter. Check FSA hygiene ratings on food.gov.uk; we do not quote a mains band until we have dated menus.
