CookHouse Prestatyn in Denbighshire

Just had a carvery and partner had Scampi. Treated like a queen, nothing was too much trouble. Felt relaxed and happy, both chef and young man attending to us were fabulous, I didn’t get the young man’s name but he really deserves recognition, you know who you, remember two old fogies and a chihuahua (throughly spoilt by you). Thank you so much.

Very polite, attentive staff, as soon as we walked in with 2 dogs, a very kind gentleman, asked if he could give the dogs some scraps from the carvery, he also brought over water for the dogs. The staff were extremely polite and professional. The larger, was extremely well kept and a very nice pint. My wife and friend had the carvery and thoroughly enjoyed it, it does say go large for an extra couple of pounds, my wife was very pleased she didn't choose this as she had more than enough. I had pasta which was very tasty. It was so good we returned the next day for my wife's birthday and again we were not disappointed. I would highly recommend the Cookhouse.

Great staff, v friendly. Holly, in particular, has been very helpful

The food is very good and the price is good as well, defo worthy

Food was good, staff friendly. We did have to wait a while despite it not being too busy (main focus was the carvery)

Good value carvery and good quality food. Family friendly, and a nice beer garden at the front. Nice and clean inside, but it looks very grotty at the back. When walking down the stairs from the railway station, it looks a mess. Shame as it doesn't leave a good 1st impression.

Good price amazing food very friendly staff great service and you don't have to leave your table 👍

Not a big fan of little pots with chips or anything else in them , it doesn't work as you feel restricted to having small portions, not good when ya a big eater, please don't ask me what the black things where on the little silver pot are , but I think they were mushroom s Which I left. Ps the food was hot.

Great food at reasonable prices.

lovely roast dinner and do senior citizen cheaper roast

Good service from the staff. The ladies on the bar were genuinely friendly and all the staff were helpful. Definitely will visit again if I'm in Prestatyn.

Loved this pub, friendly atmosphere, food was lovely went back again next day.

Not bad at all probably needed more staff

Visited for the carvery. Decent food,hot and tasty. Really good value for money. No frills ,you get what you pay for. Pleasant staff, dog friendly seating in one area which is fantastic.

Food was nice, and the atmosphere was nice but service was a little slow. Apart from that I enjoyed my meal

Great place, we went for Sunday lunch and had the carvery, cooked lovely, lovely atmosphere and dog friendly, would recommend 😋 👌

Food is standard, allows dogs inside which is always an off put to me, service was average not too long but long enough. One guy that served me was nice and polite and understanding. Wouldn't go again personally but it seems to be a very busy popular place

4 of us and baby came for carney Sunday lunch. Didn't have to book plenty room available. Food was delicious 😋 really enjoyed it definitely go again

Went in first time with family had carvery no roster beef left was not informed when ordering 😕

The worst mixed grill I have ever had it was only just warmer than cold, meat was dry the few chips served were cold egg was solid only decent part was the sausages although cold were a good quality. My wife's roast dinner was no better. I won't be spending any more of my hard earned there again.

On a very very rainy day,we were welcomed by super friendly staff. I had simple sausages and onion gravy and it was perfect. My partner had a beautiful lasagne. Lovely friendly pub. The reason I didn't score the highest mark for atmosphere was simply because it was fairly quiet due to the weather. Nothing the pub could about that. This is a genuine little gem of a pub. Cheers.

What can I say about this place they do the best carvery in Wales absolutely gorgeous

It's OK for a roast dinner . Busy when we went to obviously popular . Free parking near by in retail park . Worth prebooking a table if you want Sunday dinner

First visit here. Nice friendly staff. One of the best carvery's I have had. Hot, cooked. Good size portions. Monday to Friday £9.95. Car park at the rear of the pub. Very good value. I will definitely be making more visits

One meal was not available after ordering and despite the alternative being cheaper, no refund was made. An additional side ordered and paid after the initial order did arrive, but the original side never arrived despite being paid for. The cheese bites were so overcooked that even the dog wouldn't eat them. Hanging kebabs were tasty but really tough and dry....the hand cooked chips were undercooked and hard. Thoroughly disappointing meal and the service wasn't great, nobody checked satisfaction or offered any welcome. Maybe Monday isn't the best day to go? Shame because it's a lovely looking bar.

My wife and I had the carvery and the food was excellent served by a very pleasant member of staff and the bar staff were very friendly.We arrived at about 1-30 very busy but had no problem getting a table, will definitely be going again.

The food was lovely. Staff were nice But took nearly 2 hours for us to receive food

It's okay here! Brekky good and service okay too.Sadly the car park at the rear has events on regularly such as face painting and cake stalls which closes the car park to customers and on a sunny day it's a nightmare so ... check what's on before you head in.

The food was overcooked and hard. It was lacking taste. It was swimming in oil The vegetables was dry. Not much selection of vegetables. The seeds was dirty

Food and service was excellent.very friendly atmosphere

Had a lovely vist and lovely staff

Place does a really nice Carvery, myself and the wife came on the motorbike from Liverpool since the food is that nice. Staff are amazing, always want to help when they can.

Had the carvery very poor salty ham stuffing was like cannon balls bald lady how carved for us was not very nice,beer was very good though but would never go back her

Polite friendly staff good service excellent food we came twice 1st time we had the carvery which was excellent then we came again and had a main meal and dessert good value for money here

Went for a drink at bar for my sister n said I looked wobbly so they would not serve me after having 2 pints myself plus my sister is disabled who I went to the bar for u no what they say disabled ppl come last I think u need to book up ur ideas cook house because I am fuming with this being disabled

What a lovely carvery myself and wife had . A1

Great pub food, Salmon dish is favourite.

Great pub, food very nice! Friendly and excellent service, would certainly come again if in Prestatyn again. Background music nice too and toilets too.

Dogs walking around eating food from tables, hot dog was disgusting, chicken burger rock hard as burnt to a crisp. Moving guests to suit people who got there after us and put us with young children next to a group of noisy pissheads. Never again!

Went here today last minute after the car show staff were not friendly at the bar ignored what you said . We had the carvery the chef who served was miserable as anything turkey was pink so asked to swap it over made the chef even more grumpy will not be coming here again

One of the best roast dinners I've ever had. Everything perfect

Visited The Cookhouse because they allowed dogs inside as long as they are well behaved and stay only in the uncarpeted dining areas. Food was nice although we had a bit of a wait to order food and drinks at the bar. We had also pre-booked a table but when we arrived and asked a member staff where our table was they just said they didn't know but would get someone to help us. Anyway after 20 mins waiting for someone to advise where our allocated table was we got fed up of waiting and just decided to sit at an empty table in the uncarpeted area for people with dogs. The staff were pleasant and welcoming, food was your usual pub food so we would recommend a visit if you are in the area. You do have to pay for parking!

Food 8/10, gammon and chips needed more chips!! Carvery and fish and chips 10/10 Atmosphere was ok, music jumped up a few decibels at one point and made a few people jump!! Toilets were clean and had good acoustics, may have had some issues with the plumbing after my brother visited.

Great place, staff are welcoming, food is on point especially the carvery, the beef is amazing 👏

Food very good, service good, clean, down side the music was much to loud for a restaurant.

Absolutely stunning food. It's rare to find a carvery where the roast potatoes are as good as home made but they were perfect, as was the mash and the meat was delicious and succulent. The scampi was both decent quality and generous portions and the chips were proper twice cooked chips not the oven chips you get elsewhere. The Chicken tikka masala was cooked to perfection with a cute little naan bread. The service was exceptional, shout out to Cassie, Matt & Ryan for an excellent job that made us feel well looked after. Can't wait to visit again.

Absolutely brilliant food, lovely service and very helpful. What more do you want whilst eating?

Steak under cooked, not how I asked for it and portion sizes like child portions. Wouldn't go back in a hurry.

Polite Friendly staff, Fabulous food, great atmosphere!

Went here 3 times in a week with my mom and my hubby. Everyone very happy with food and prices on each visit. We will be back.

Good quality food great service

Good carvery. Plenty of space early

Food exelent Service excellent On this ocassion somebody forgot to switch the boiler on for hot drinks,chilled water available

Not had food drinks are good sit outside and watch the world go by

Had the carvery on a Sunday. It was amazing. Best carvery I have had out.

Came here just to look at what gluten free options there were, good selection so ordered the salt and pepper chicken wing box with extra hand cooked chips, was absolutely lovely. On this basis came back later and ordered a hanging kebab and the penne Mexicano my god the contrast was awful, my penne was so swimming in grease it was impossible to eat, the ciabatta 'toast' was just warm bread , I cook myself and know that pesto and chorizo contain oil but I don't want my food swimming in it (kitchen paper guys) also my partners gluten free meals was certainly not as he's been in agony all night after eating his meal and have had nothing to eat other than from cookhouse all day .......complained to the waitress who could clearly see we hadn't had more than two mouthfuls and was just met with 'sorry' took our plates then left. We are locals and would never eat here again

Lovely carvery and excellent, friendly staff.

Best all you can eat breakfast in Prestatyn in my opinion and great service.

food was excellent, and the experience was nice. Although the music was a touch too loud, the overall experience was great.

Lvly carvery & pleasant staff&chef

Had a great meal there with all the family,easy ordering at the bar and the food was delicious and came out quickly.Everyone enjoyed what they got,my 11 yr old got steak and loved it-was done perfectly the way he asked for it, burger i got was perfect too.Will definitely be back if on holidays there again

Food was only just warm staff a little stand offish okay experience

As usual found the food of good quality and service from staff as very good

Went for carvery and it was good value for money. Everything tasted grate, but they ran out of gravy and it was over 15 minutes to bring some to the table after having to ask 3 times for some, food was going cold at this point.

It's a lovely place, we didn't realise parking was free until we went in as it didn't say anywhere outside. Really nice place. the food was great. Prices are very expensive. 5 meals and 5 drinks for 70.55 (3 being kids). Play area is better for big kids not so much the young ☺️

Went for a meal with friends 3 of us had fish & fried roast potatoes sold as chips fish batter was burnt and 2 of us waiting for food while the other 4 guests are half way through their meal no where as nice as the last meal we had there..

We were down on a break in the area and decided to pop down for breakfast. The building was closed with no sign’s up explaining why. Very disappointed after we needed to pay for parking before approaching the premesis.

Lovely service. Recommend the mixed grill. Free parking, check in pub.

Not that impressed overall. Some customer kicking off at bar staff , meal not to good either

Very enjoyable meals, nicely served, piping hot. Dog friendly, Staff friendly and very helpful. Spotlessly clean

Service was excellent and food very reasonable. Clean and welcoming.

Absolutely gorgeous pub with really lovely staff and the most delicious carvery!! Really really tasty. Thank you so much to you all!!! We were recommended to you by the lady we're renting a holiday caravan from for a few days and very glad she did! Such a lovely meal ❤️ will more than likely be back again for food tomorrow ❤️ YUM!

We ate here last minute after arriving at prestatyn in the evening. The staff were lovely the food was outstanding and well worth what we paid. We ordered from the menu but the carvery looked and smelled beautiful. The chips were delicious with a roast potato vibe and the ice cream sundaes were the nicest we've ever had, our waitress was friendly and so efficient and professional even though the poor girl had hiccups 😆 we'll definitely eat here again next time we visit.

Fantastic food and service with decent prices 👌

Been for carvery today. Its not the best carvery. However my review is the carvery chef today had a proper chip on his shoulder. He should not be in this job if he can't even be polite without huffing and puffing. Not impressed.

Best place to go for a decent meal and great atmosphere with friends.

Great breakfast, cooked to order great price. Staff are fantastic, great team. Our favourite place for a brekkie.

Great pub! Served really quickly and carvery was really nice. Will definitely be back.

Came for Sunday lunch food was beautiful

Really impressed had a gluten free menu and a good choice but a bit disappointing no gluten free beers 🤔

Very slow, waited 45 mins for food but was very nice when it arrived

Food was nice. Quite pricey but that's life.

Dog friendly pub, food is good and great value for money

Went back here with having previous experience being good. The staff wasn’t happy at all and looked and sounded like they didn’t want to be there , the food was good when it eventually came out . Didn’t get warned it was an half an hour wait on food until we chased our food up . The waiter was lovely and the food was lovely . Just put a downer on things and with it being a birthday meal with family just put a downer on the mood . None of the staff smiled except the waiter . Deffo gone down hill

The food was lovely. We had 2 hanging kebabs, 2 beef 1 chicken, and one tikka masala. We seemed to be the only ones in but enjoyed

Food under cooked 2 steaks 28 pound what up said it was right but on menu 2 for 18 under cooked bacon raw in rhe end we cooked in caravan if I could gave 0 would

A well needed meal after a long journey and we weren't disappointed, lovely cocktails and tasty grub to fill us up service was amazing and it's always nice to see staff being interactive.

A very pleasant experience,, the food was very good , hot and tasty. The lady behind the bar was very helpful and respectful (our first time there) special price for Seniors £7.50 each. I could have had free parking if I'd notified the staff but didn't know about it.

We've visited here a good few times over the years. Although the food is reasonable, the menu is limited and not very inspiring. The roast is self serve and mostly warm,not piping hot which a roast should be. As a disabled customer trying to get help from certain staff is certainly a challenge. That said, a reasonable pub. Sometimes though the atmosphere can get rather questionable when you get hostile clientel and choice sentence enhancement (bad language). so a good meal can be ruined by aggressive customers. Service in general is good, although sometimes, certain items in orders were missing which spoiled meals, but when staff are rushing around and not well supported as they should be, these mistakes can easily happen.

Had a roast for 7.50 as I am a old guy. One of the best dinners for the price during the trip to the UK. Very friendly staff.

This was one of the worst meals I've had in a long time, paid for a Calvary but then wasn't able to have it as the shutter had been closed down. Changed to other meals and after waiting for ages, it eventually arrived and it was disgusting!! I certainly won't be visiting again.

Food was amazing!!! Staff were polite. Pub clean and tidy. Nice and child friendly. Only let down was having to park for parking. But when the food is this good you don't mind.

Had a lovely meal here with family, we all had the carvery which was delicious 😋 definitely recommend this place 👌

Enjoyed a lovely carvery with family whilst on holiday, first time we've been here and will definitely be going back again in the future

Not the best meal i had we had.the carvery and the gammon was dry up at the server. So I had the beef and it was the thing on the meal. No carrots, the roast potatoes tasted funny. And when eating the meal I found that cauliflower and broccoli was cold it was the gravy keeping it warm. Not a great experience

Just stopped for a drink today, but lovely place, plenty of space to sit outside. Very nice.

Love sitting here on a summers day we’ll have to get some photos next time I’m here

Amazing service great atmosphere amazing food

We went for the Sunday carvery and unfortunately we all found it disappointing. The standard plates were not very big, you got 2 thin slices of meat. The stuffing balls were rock hard, Yorkshire puddings were dry as a bone, pigs in blankets were the smallest I've ever seen, carrots were mashes and watery, broccoli was overcooked and the roast potatoes were poor... they had like a skin on them which tore when you cut them which was rather strange. Finally the gravy was watery and pretty tasteless. At the prices they are charging I expected better. The only positive was the staff were friendly.

Really nice place with good food and friendly staff. The carvery is brilliant and on everyday. Reason for the service 2 star is you have to queue in a line for the bar and it can take 20mins to get a drink. Its really weird why you have to queue in one line and needs changing
