Brief business description

What's in a name?

The pub has a nickname 'The Branch'.
Two stories as to the reason for this nickname
1. Local meetings for the EEPTU union held monthly at the Britannia Inn.
When Carol Williams took over in 1992 this monthly meeting was still happening.

2. The more popular theory is the fact that the South Stack pub in Holyhead used to be a small brewery as well as a pub. This brewery had two other pubs in Holyhead, The Victoria Inn & the Britannia Inn.
The Britannia became known as a branch of the South Stack brewery, hence the nickname sticks to this day (even taxi drivers know it as the Branch)
