Blue Scrumpy left this review about Tapps
This micropub is the best Llandudno has to offer. There are two rooms, one at the front and a much smaller one at the rear. The bar is in the front section with most of the drinking space. They also have a number of tables placed outside on the pavement to the front of the property. There is a good selection of both real ales and craft beers, as well as real cider.
On our first visit, ales on were the regular Conwy Welsh Pride and guests 4T's Squirrel's Heaven, Cwrw Ial Pocket Rocket, Tiny Rebel Strawberries & Cream IPA & Mobberley Brewhouse 1824. Ciders were Lilley's Fire Dancer, Pineapple Cider, Tropical Cider & Crazy Goat, Snail's Bank Fruit Bat, Rhubarb Cider & Peach Melba, Abrahall's Ruby Tuesday & Gwynt y Ddraig Black Dragon. Craft beers were Wild Horse Buckskin The Knight's Move & Nokota, Hand Otto, First Chop IPA, Wild Weather Satellite & Northern Monk Flake and Sauce. There was also a draft cider, which was Big Nose & Beardy Medium Sweet.
On subsequent visits Wilde Child Delaying the Inevitable became available on cask & Polly's Midnight Love & New Bristol Beaut were added to the craft list. A CAMRA discount is offered on real ales and ciders.
I managed to work my way through most of the board on various visits, which included playing chess on a specially-designed table in the front room and enjoying some of the cheese board provided on the bar on a Tuesday evening. It was busy on every visit.

A cracking micropub with very friendly staff and customers (and dogs). There's the main room at the front, a bit of a corridor with a couple of seats and then a smaller room to the rear. Very busy on our Sunday, late afternoon visit, but rather quieter when we visited on Monday afternoon. A good range of ales, all Welsh, with a collaboration brew by two local brewers which was in very good nick. It was called The Spanish Inquisition (I wasn't expecting that). We'll definitely be calling in here next time.

A fairly large micro (circa 2017) with a square main room and a smaller one behind, decorated with dark blue walls and stripped wood lowers. 5 cask, 8 keg. Unfortunately the cask selection was fairly samey, style-wise. My Purple Moose Snowdonia was in great nick though (NBSS 4) and bar service was friendly, as were the punters. 7.5

Nice little micropub which is bigger than it looks with some seating through the back. Excellent beer choice and the quality was superb. A must do if you are in town.

Much better than the average micro pub.
With decent music at a comfortable level and a busy bar, you'd be hard pushed to tell your not in a regular pub.
Beer quality was superb - a very good Welsh Pride from Conwy Brewery.
Enjoyed our visit.

A decent and friendly micropub. The single toom is comfortable and the bar boasts 5 handpulls and about 7 taps along the wall behind the bar. A decent mixture of styles on the handpulls. No idea what was on on the wall taps as I have no interest in them. Definitely one to seek out when in Llandudno.

This place had been open for just over a year on my visit. It's a fairly typical micropub with a square room that has the bar on the rear left and there is a small area at the rear. Although there are no TVs or other electronic stuff they did have music playing and they also do speciality spirits. I visited on the Wednesday and Thursday evenings so there were a few people in.
On both days there were five beers on and I tried Conwy Black Witch, Big Hand Palewulf and Alechemy Secret Citra. These were £3.50 for the first two and £3.80 for the stronger third one. All were in good nick but the Secret Citra was superb and I stuck to that the second night. The prices are expensive for North Wales but maybe not Llandudno.
I thought this was an excellent addition to Llandudno's pub choice.
