Bay View Bar & Thai Dining in Swansea

I frequently eat here. Really good value and quality

Great place for a lovely authentic thai meal. Great service and very friendly.

Midweek lunchtime visit. Venu quite busy. Friendly bar staff suggested available tables. Great value lunch menu 2 courses £7.50 so excellent value. Ordered drinks and food at bar. Short wait and food arrived by friendly staff member. Starters and main served together on same plate. Generous portion for the price. Both meals hot and tasty. No complaints. We both enjoyed our meals and will return.

Fantastic great environment great thai food

Great food Great staff.. worth visiting .. nice pub good beer .. service quick and precise..... all good here ..........

Great food and great value for money on food and drink. Great pub to spend the day as got pool table aswell and very nice staff. Also great to watch the six nations as good atmosphere.

Great pub and restaurant right on Swansea seafront specializing in Thai food, although I ordered chicken and chips due to a coconut allergy. Friendly staff and great service, plus decent prices 👍

Excellent Thai food plenty of choice. Didn't expect such quality in a pub and a good selection of beers

Nice staff, decent food and good prices. Won't blow you away but what I had to eat was tasty enough! The rest of the venue (the more pub side of it) seemed pretty decent - a good local pub with a pool table, dartboard, and decent selection of drinks.

Great food reasonable prices. Great staff wonderful view of the mumbles.

Lovely staff, nice beer, rubbish Thai. Come for a pint, leave for the food.

An amazing restaurant on the seafront in Swansea, over the years it’s been consistently good and amazing value for money when you consider what you get and it's all freshly made to order. Great Staff, great music, great drinks, great food, great ambience.

No food kitchen apparently closes at 6pm.

Decent food at a reasonable cost, but nothing special. Staff were very friendly and a good choice of Beers...it's worth trying once if you've never been.

Went to Bay View on a Tuesday evening when they have "open mike night" excellent entertainment and excellent food ( Thai food by the way).

Cracking little gem on the seafront in Swansea, eaten here many times over the years and always consistently good and amazing value for money when you consider what you get and it's all freshly made to order. Staff are lovely too especially the loooooovely Flow with her golden locks and witty banter! Well worth a visit folks! Hic

Can't fault this business at all

Love it here. Food is always excellent. Have tried other local Thai restaurants but this is without doubt the best………..

It would be nice if there was a terrace too!

Ordered a meal the wrong one came out then the person that served me

Excellent food and service, a really nice place to relax, and autistic safe. I heartily recommend a visit.

Great place to eat and enjoy a great selection of music via the excellent House band and open mic performers.

Staff very friendly food excellent definitely go again.ⁿ

We were pleased to get our table for four, at this busy and welcoming hostelry. A very dog friendly space, with helpful and efficient staff. The menu was huge, with great choices. Some of our Thai favourites were also part of the daily specials menu too. We had a good value meal, washed down with a cool ale, and a bowl of water for the dog too. Perfect! We'll visit again...

Excellent authentic Thai dining. All dishes cooked to order.

Had the excellent value lunch menu, loads of choice and gorgeous food . would recommend to anyone.

Hadn't been to the Bay View for a while and had forgot how good the food was. We went for a mid week evening meal and found the bar and restaurant area very busy, which gave it a great atmosphere. We sat in the bar area and ordered 2 courses from the bar. Even though the bar was very busy our starters arrived after only a short wait, these turned out to be very tasty. Following our starters the main meals arrive which again were excellent and as we had ordered off the specials menu were very reasonable. Overall it was a good evening, the meals were excellent and at a very reasonable price

Love this pub as it's very friendly and the Thai food is real good!!!!

This really is a gem. The food is very good and reasonably priced. Lovely welcoming staff.

Celebrated Mother's Day here yesterday and couldn't fault the place - the staff were so friendly and obliging (considering it was so busy!). The food was stunning as usual - and such good value for money. Love this place and highly recommend :)

Went for a midweek meal, when we arrived we found it very busy but found a table in the bar. We ordered our food and drinks at the bar and sat expecting a bit of a wait, as it was so busy. To our surprise the starters arrived within a couple of minutes and after we finished the starters the mains arrived shortly after. For the main course we ordered from the £7.99 menu and both our main courses were really tasty. The food and service were excellent and the place had a good atmosphere. This is a good place for a reasonably priced tasty meal.

We booked a table for a family birthday. Once again the food was excellent as was the service. We had a great time and can’t wait to visit again.

Food was tasty but dissapointed with the portions.

Lunch time meals are extremely tasty and forethought price outstanding

I regularly visit here for lunch. Great Staff, great music, great drinks, great food, great ambience. Beef in red wine sauce was delicious.

Thai food here was incredible. Staff are great and the lunch menu is definitely worth coming here for. Live tv. Pool table and darts board. Live entertainment most nights and right next to the sea. Great place.

I was stunned when my friend said we were going to eat Thai and then we walked into a pub - what a great vibe! The food was not only excellent but authentic. The service was also great, from the moment we walked in. Highly recommend a visit!

Amazing place. Go-to for Thai in Swansea, always has been, always will be.

Some of the best authentic Thai food. Feels like a local pub always something going on

Lovely staff, happy to take dogs. Thai food delicious. The set lunch menu is great value for money, great location after a walk along the beach

good food to good prices. Most delicious thai in swansea

I came here with three of my friends on Thursday 5th October 2023 and it did not disappoint! Relaxed atmosphere, plenty of room inside, very reasonably priced menu with a fantastic choice! Food was excellent! Not only the food was outstanding but the service was too! Very friendly, polite and professional staff! Will definitely be coming back! Great place! 5 star!!

Lovely place, food was excellent and great value, we were there on a Tuesday night and had an added bonus of live music as well

Saturday lunch 3 of us went for a first trip after being told the food was nice but dont expect a big meal for 6.95 two course. So we ordered 5 meals with a view of a tapas style lunch. 5 starters meant 10 pieces and five mains with two rice one chips and two noodles. turned out a very nice dinner not pub snack. plenty of different flavors and a nice experience. Bar prices for drinks very competitive too. Will definitely recommend and do again.

I came here to watch The Rock Project perform. I am also going here soon to perform in a Open Mic Night. I find it great that they get the audience included by doing Open Mic Nights for free every week. The crowd is also impeccable. The service and food is really good.

There is nothing “Thai” about this food. I went with the best expectations based off of reviews here but I cannot understand how we are speaking about the same restaurant. Every starter we ordered was deep fried, and not when traditionally supposed to be. The fish cakes were of some unknown, unidentifiable matter and my main entree boasted a beautiful variety of Thai herbs and flavors and ended up to be last night’s roast dinner gravy with soy sauce added. It was one of the worst meals I have ever had. The Thai place in the market is much superior to anything served here. Very disappointed. The thought of this meal made me nauseous all night and still does.

Best Thai in Swansea. Fantastic food. Been eating here for 10 years. Consistently good.

I’ve been eating here for 10 years. Consistently excellent food. Lovely pub. Plenty of space. Good service. And did I mention the food - delicious.

We had a lovely meal before the madness concert Friday. I am gluten intolerant and they catered well for me.

Nice friendly atmosphere there is a pool table darts board food is fantastic

Lovely food and beer at very reasonable prices..food is fantastic

Beautiful venue, lovely staff, stunning food! All round amazing pub/ resteraunt!

We not been there for 4 yrs but it was as good as the first time 15 yrs ago. Food always top rate. Great staff in the kitchen and in the bar. We will be back very soon xx

Relaxed atmosphere,good food but portions could have been a bit bigger,2 dogs present in the restaurant area.....WHY??

Staff are friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and Lunchtime menu excellent value for money.

Fantastic Pub! We popped in for a lovely lunch while on a Sunny walk along the front. Were sorted and seated very quickly in their cool, light and airy Bar area. The food was excellent, with x2 Starters and x2 Mains for around £15-£20. The Guinness was well poured and priced too (always a good sign for me 😁) Staff were lovely, welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended

6.99 for one course, 9.99 for two courses. It's like a pub, but the pub food is Thai inspired. The food was tasty, decent portion size and arrived quickly. Very relaxed atmosphere with very friendly staff. Very pleasant experience as a whole!

Great place. Wholesome ingredients and flavours. Server did her best to serve. Party at back bit noisy but we didn't mind people having fun.

All good - nothing bad - 1. staff excellent (and I mean all of them, not just one or two) - 2. food was really good and the lunchtime special was great value - 3. for those who enjoy a decent pint of bitter, I suspect you will not be disappointed - 4. dog friendly across most of the pub (not just a rubbish bit in a backroom) - highly recommended

Lovely pub, great food staff are amazing, really great atmosphere 👍

Have been visiting this place for the past couple of years, the ambience, food and beer is superb. It has a really good vibe which makes it an enjoyable experience!!!

Fab place. Really busy. Shame we missed food service at lunchtime but staff were great and friendly

Didn't know what to expect as I've heard the food was great but always known it to be a pub - but we were blown away by the flavour and quality of the food and the staff were so lovely! Will be returning soon!

Great lunches, good selection of beers. Good spicy Thai food.

Great value and good quality food. Friendly staff that are always happy to help.

It's a pub with a good view of the bay and tasty food at a good price.

We call to “The Bay View”, quite regularly, as the food is beyond excellent, with a traditional ale to wash it down, along with our coffee. Why go elsewhere when we have the best on our doorstep, quite reasonably priced as well. The speedy service along with the caring staff, is indeed a joy to behold. Thank you kindly everybody, we’ll no doubt be back at least once a week, along with our canine pal Enzo yea.

We ate in this Restaurant on 2 evenings during our 5 night stay, and we were not disappointed. The food was tasty and served by excellent friendly staff. There is a varied menu with multiple choices to suit your taste. Well worth a visit when in the area, would recommend. this place is also dog friendly, which is a bonus.

Very happy with this visit to the Bay View. Overall the food was very good and at a reasonable price. It is very much a pub atmosphereand you take your chances on that I suppose. I will happily be going back for more soon.

BY FAR THE BEST THAI FOOD IVE HAD SO FAR 10/10 WOULD 100% RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE 👍🏾

Great meal and drinks, beer choice very good, our only negative is the usual 4 legged hounds!! , not good (allowed?? ) for a restaurant!!

Excellent food very reasonable. There was an open mic night. That was a mixed bag of talent as you would expect but the atmosphere was great. Lovely evening.

This place is the bloody best (forgive my language) excellent food, very reasonable price and lovely staff. Not to mention the pool table! 10/10. 🤌🏼

Pub with good Tai food and friendly staff. Menu was confusing though.

Good food every time. Aware of gluten in food, which they cook very well and will advise if not gf. Dog friendly and friendly staff.

This is a great place, a really relaxed vibe, very friendly, busy but not rammed and a great location. Most importantly though the food was delicious. We will be back.

Was there for a wake, so wasn't paying to much attention

nice food but tiny portions, poor service and was overcharged which took ages to sort out

Thai food was not something we were looking for on a Sunday afternoon stroll along Swansea's Sea front. Indeed, we headed towards the Secret Bar although the queue of people outside waiting to get in out of the cold put us off. Even on the walk back to the Bay View, we were not exactly motivated to go in, but in all honesty, we were glad we did. We haven't been to the Bay View in years. The place itself hasn't changed much, but is welcoming. The food was great and aactually a welcome change to a burger or baguette. Spicy chicken in garlic, and another chicken dish in sweet chilli sauce with crispy wantons was lovely and very much welcome on a cold a blustery afternoon. I dont think we will be so quick to dismis this place next time.

Oh my goodness, what an amazing place. The Thai food is the best I've had outside of Thailand, the customer service was second to none on an error on the order. How has it taken me so long to find thus place. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed, and the takeaway food was incredible. I cannot wait to go back!!

Nice food with lovely view. Food is affordable as well. Pad thai is definitely recommended

Go there weekly for lunch. Tremendous value and always a great meal

Night out with lots of friends. Well organised considering there were 20+ in our party. £5.99pp for meal great value my food was delicious.

Food was good, atmosphere was good, was a pleasant experience.

Bay View Oystermouth Road Swansea is an exceptional Thai Restaurant in a very old pub. The food is delicious and very reasonably priced. The staff are very obliging and extremely friendly. From the Bay View you can see the sea with Mumbles Head in full view in the distance. If you want good food at a sensible cost with lovely staff then it is the place for you. Go on indulge yourself.

It was nice and quiet And the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Popped in unexpectedly for lunch whilst visiting Swansea. Absolutely wonderful food, excellent friendly service can't fault it. Superb value for money. I have been going there for several years now and never disappoints but I have moved away from Swansea now some distance, any opportunity to visit Swansea this place will be my first choice. Love it.

1st class dining experience amazing Thai food Well worth a visit, Very friendly staff great atmosphere.

Very friendly anle to take dog in big plus treats and water for dog food was fantastic I have never eaten thai food before what a pleasant surprise both me and the wife enjoyed the food will definitely visit again

Fantastic what value for money, perfect

Thai food is banging and great value

Just keep going back.... its like a magnet. Great value food, great selection of drinks and great staff. We'll done !

Familiar with pub from student days 50 years ago! Now visiting, went today near end of walk from Mumbles. 2 real ales available, good. Most importantly, lunch menu for 2 courses (one served as a “side”) at £6.45 . Sides ok, not special. Both of our mains were brilliant. Not huge but not meagre as might be expected from the price, both really delicious with meat (one pork, one chicken) of good quality. Price includes choice of noodles or rice (or, indeed, chips). Hope to get bach there before our visit ends.

One of my favourite Thai Bar/restaurants. Excellent Value and outstanding service. The staff are so welcoming and work so hard to ensure your looked after. Plus Dog friendly and across the road from the beach. What more can you ask for!

Very friendly people great food

Food never disappoints. The young man serving today worked SO hard and was so polite and professional. Always great music playing and overlooks beautiful Swansea Bay. What's not to like.

Great experience, they were super busy as Nile Rogers (awesome btw) was in town, coped very well. Amazing food, great service and an awesome location ✅✅😉👌

We booked the Bay View as a venue for our wedding reception and it was perfect. Fran (the manager) met with us before the day and accommodated any suggestions or requests that we had, as well as making helpful suggestions to make the day as smooth as possible. We had a lot of things such as decorations/disco lights that required set-up and when we got to the venue everything was in place and looked amazing. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful on the day and the service was fantastic. We had a 2 course Thai meal for our day guests (starter, main and tea/coffee service), followed by a buffet for the evening guests, all of the food was great, and the staff accommodated people's requests, for example being able to provide more mild dishes in case a dish was too spicy! The buffet was a mixture of Thai food e.g. satay/spring rolls and sandwiches/pastries. Overall we felt like the venue went above and beyond to make the day as perfect as possible, and we'd highly recommend it as a venue for any party/event. Thank you! Jami & Dan

Had a time at the Bayview last night. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. The Bayview is a very old establishment, full of history and still has lots of original features Highly recommended

Lovely staff, great service. Portions were very small. Hardly any chips. Meals weren’t like they were a few years ago, when last visited. Either different owners.
