Local Spotlight: No 11 & Jacques Wine Bar

If there’s one thing Ruthin does beautifully, it’s blending charm with character — and nowhere captures that spirit quite like No.11 Bistro

and Jacques Wine Bar.

Just a short stroll from several Oliver Bell homes, these sister venues form the heartbeat of the town’s dining scene. No.11 offers modern British dishes with a warm Welsh welcome — think local lamb, slow-cooked to perfection, or pan-fried sea bass served in an atmosphere that feels both elegant and easy. It’s the kind of place where time slows down, and conversation lingers long after the plates are cleared.

Across the square, Jacques Wine Bar hums with laughter, candlelight, and the clink of glasses. It’s relaxed, confident, and quietly indulgent — an evening of shared plates, great wine, and that unmistakable sense of belonging that only independent hospitality can deliver.

Both spaces share the same philosophy that defines Oliver Bell — authenticity, quality, and heart.

Whether you’re joining us for a stay or simply a supper, Ruthin’s hospitality is a reminder that the best luxury doesn’t shout. It simply makes you feel at home.
