Restaurants in Mold

Market and theatre — show nights fill tables, not Flint estuary or Rhyl coast.

Mold (Y Wyddgrug) restaurants sit around the market, town hall and Theatr Clwyd — independents for county-town shoppers and show nights, not Flint's estuary castle sitting and not Rhyl's promenade. Buckley shares the Flintshire taxi table but not this high street. Check FSA hygiene ratings on food.gov.uk; we do not quote a mains band until we have dated menus.
