The hosts led 3-0 through Nick Williams (penalty), Iwan Richards and Aled Jones before the latter was sent off on 35 minutes.
Given a lifeline, the Magpies dragged themselves back into the match with goals by Aaron Young and Sion Williams but the 10 men regained the initiative with a second goal by 20-year-old Richards with three of the 90 minutes remaining.
Tywyn’s David Jenkins was given his marching orders for a second caution but it was too late for another Barmouth revival.
Llanuwchllyn produced an improved performance to run out 3-2 winners at Y Felinheli with goals by Meilir Williams (2) and Tomos Evans; Elis Williams and Iwan Owen replied for the hosts.
