Earlier this year it would have been a 5 star review but what decline.2 months ago we had pre booked a family of 6 for a lunch at 1330 hours only to be told on arrival the kitchen closes in 10 minutes ..no apology. Tonight why wife and arrived at 1930 to be greeted by the kitchen closed I only have one chef..again no apology.Complete lack of customer focus….so no more visits!!

Staff and food are usually spot on. We came for breakfast last week, and sadly, the queue for food was ridiculous. The hot food and pastries/bread etc had been put next to one another. People were waiting for toast, holding up the queue. At one point, it was nearly out of the door! Please separate these to allow shorter wait times.

Went for the carvery. Beef was very dry, chicken was ok and gammon very fatty. Roast potatoes left a lot to be desired as well but the rest of the veg and the stuffing balls was very nice. Reasonable value for money

Vegan menu could have been better, very few options. But the burger I had was fairly good, but there are vegan items on the menu that are not marked as vegan. Atmosphere is what you make it. Wheelchair accessibility to the table was good, booked ahead, lots of space to manoeuvre. Disabled loo could have been a lot better, no issues with toilet Hand wash sink was tiny, didn't like the hand soap, was slimy. Hand dryer was difficult to use from a sitting position, constantly cutting out. All form and little substance. Door couldn't lock. And the red emergency cord was in the corner, thankfully I didn't need it as I would have had to reach around the toilet if I had fallen.

Bit of friendly advice. If you're going to turn away a pre booked birthday breakfast party of over 10 people, Atat least try to be A) polite about it (your waitresses apathy was frustrating, and B) have a better reason than baked beans. You knew you had people booked, you knew what time we were booked. I worked in a place like this for years. Own it a little. You're service was appalling.

Even though it's cold outside the hotel was boiling hot put ac on was so loud couldnt sleep cant even open window's at all so stuffy. Husband asked someone to open the door as hands were full a crew member from gavin and stacey set had a right go at husband swearing n everything at him totally ruined the atmosphere there. Yes we no they were filming but they're so rude from the show james corden wouldnt have picture said he doesnt do charity.. he was so rude. All rest cast memebers said yes.

As someone who is gluten free, I've been very impressed with the staff's knowledge of the allergy and willingness to help make sure the meal is safe. Though they don't have a designated gluten free menu (there is an allergen booklet), everyone from the bar team to the chef seems well trained in preparing food safely.

Like the food here better than other brewers fayre I've been to. Staff are very helpful and polite. The only complaint is I've never had crispy roast potatoes as it states on menu I really like crispy ones. Chef always slow at setting up the carvery rest of staff stand around doing nothing to assist supposed to start at 12 still waiting at 12.15 with a rather large queue.

As a new local to Barry, I went here for the first time today and it was nice weather (but a little windy down the water front) so decided to sit outside. There was a slight instance with the parasol so I went inside to let a staff member know. He apologised and said he would tell the manager. Moments later we were approached by the lovely manager Josh, to double check everything was okay which was wholly appreciated, even though everything was fine. But due to the slight inconvenience he offer a gesture of goodwill which I accepted. I have worked within the hospitality industry myself, and found his manner and approach really pro-active, really friendly and super caring given I have my baby with me and cannot thank him enough! He is a fantastic asset to the team and has certainly secured our future custom!! All other staff members we encountered were also very friendly, so would highly recommend a visit here. I will be back to try the food in the near future for sure given the wonderful customer service which can be hard to find these days!! A well oiled machine indeed! Thank you again Josh and team!!! :)

Went at about 5.30pm and ordered 2x chicken tikka curry but was informed there was no rice and was told could only have chips as alternative. When it came there was way too much too sauce and not enough chicken, the poppadoma were extremely greasy and only had a hand full of chips. Also ordered kids mac and cheese, when it arrived, it had more or less burnt at the bottom of the dish making it very hard for my child to eat. Staff were friendly at the till and bringing the food.

A Saturday evening with a family of 6. The service to order at the bar was quick and staff where friendly.

I cannot understand their policy,I went there for lunch literally a couple of days ago which I must admit the staff were absolutely fantastic but the food wasn't the greatest but bearable,I was told I could pay the bill by card or cash so I paid by cash, but my problem is i went there again today just to have a drink outside in the sunshine and i was told i would have to download their app to order a drink which is absolutely pathetic, I just cant understand why they take cash one day but not 2 days later it just tells me that they don't care wether they lose customers or not so I decided to go to wetherspoons instead with no problems at all

Stopping off after a long journey hoping for something to eat - told they are not taking walk ins with the restaurant barely a quarter full, and only 12.30pm and when I walked past they had three tables booked for lunch. I hate to be one of those people but we me and my partner work for the company I find it appalling that no explanation was given, just a straight “no walk ins today sorry”. With the sun shining you would think they would want people in through the doors.

Long queues at the bar to order food and buy drinks. Asked for tartar sauce to go with fish, told they didn't have any. Our table wasn't cleared, plates still on the table when we left. Asked us to leave on Friday and Saturday at 9.50pm as they were shutting at 10.00pm, when I pointed out that their web page stated 11pm the very rudebar tender replied that he "once worked somewhere were it said they opened 24hrs and that didn't happen either". Absolutely appalling customer service, we were having a family reunion and spend time together is important to us. Also lied about tables not being available later in the evening when we requested a table at 7pm because some members of our party were at work, there were plenty of tables available at 7pm, obviously they didn't want to have to work until advised time. Definitely thinking retraining on custom service required!!!

We went here as it was raining and we were staying at the premier inn so didn't want to venture out, although wish we had. The place appeared to be understaffed. We waited to be sat for longer than we should have as there was noone around. Once sat we were told to order food at the bar so I'm not sure why we had to be waited to be sat. Once we decided what to eat, we joined the large queue to order food. Once at the front I asked for curry to be told there was no rice, so I asked for the spinach and ricotta lasagne to be told they don't have it. So I asked for sausage and mash to be told they only do that at lunch. It would have been easier to tell me what they do actually have. In the end I went for a child's meal deal as everything was fried or heavy on the menu. As part of the meal deal I asked for the strawberry dessert to be told there was no strawberries. It wasn't the young girls fault but it was annoying that as soon as they didn't have the first thing I wanted she could have told me then everything they didn't have. My husband had the trio of pies. We couldn't use our BLC as it was a Monday and the meals were on offer anyway which was fine but my issue with the menu is that is says meals from £7.99 on a Monday but then just has prices by it. So I thought why is that on a Monday, surely that's everyday. It doesn't make it clear that all the meals in a section are £7.99 on a Monday other than the trio of pies which is £9.99. Anyway order was put in. Around 30-35 mins later our food arrived. My kids spaghetti was insulting, I don't mind a small portion as it's better on my tummy but it had been shoved in a bowl and microwaved to death. The bottom was boiling but the top was freezing cold and it was all congealed. There is no way that should have come out and I wasn't going to eat it, no way I'd give it to a child. Needless to say I sent it back. I also ordered peas and got beans so back they went. Finally got a new spaghetti which wasn't so microwaved. It was cheap mushy mince so wasn't particularly pleasant. The best bit was the side of crudités I had and my water, my husband said his pies were nice but he had to throw his drink of coke as it was horrible. We then sat waiting for our dishes to be taken for another 20 minutes before I finally saw someone to ask for my pudding (part of the meal deal) and they took the dishes away. Service was not attentive but staff were pleasant enough. I can say I will never return.

The pub itself was really nice, plenty of tables and an adults on area which was a bonus. The staff were fantastic. It was very busy and there were only a few of them on duty, but they managed to keep food & drinks flowing. But - here is the negative side. The gents toilets all 3 urinals were closed off, so 2 cubicles were absolutely filthy The bar staff ran out off orange juice & cherries for cocktails. They did not have straws or Tia Maria. There was also a shortage of cocktail glasses, that was obviously down to the Limited number of staff available to collect glasses, so we were taking our glasses back and glasses from tables nearby.
