Corner House Inn in Bridgend

Best food at the best price. Been there many times. Never disappointed

A great selection in the menu of various cousins. But at £19 the cod and chips are amazing 💯💯

Fantastic food. All 6 of us had different meals and each one of us couldn't find fault. Staff were amazing

Great place really enjoyed it owner and staff were really good

Absolutely amazing food, came away feeling so full, taste was superb, fresh ingredients, bonus homemade chips was the winner, staff were outstanding, very friendly and efficient and went above and beyond to help, definitely returning and highly recommend.

Very impressed, great choice on menu, large portions, home cooked and hot. Staff were very friendly and informative. Atmosphere was great and we were made to feel very welcome. Will definitely be going back.

DO NOT RECOMMEND unless you want to be rudely told that you need to leave mid meal as it’s gone 9 and you have an under 16 year old as part of your party!! Never have I ever experienced being spoken to so rudely and have to leave a meal so abruptly !!! It all started when we arrived and was informed that we will lose our non refundable deposit of £5 because a 3 year old did not attend!!! When we explained that he was only three we were told that whoever took our booking should not have taken a deposit for him but still would not get it back as it’s “non refundable”! Anyway…. The 8 of us then went and took our seats and the waitress who was lovely, happily took our order for drinks, starters, mains and was then offered a dessert board, as we were all about to order the same women from when we first arrived walked past our table and said you do know you have to leave, I asked even mid meal? she said yes you got to leave, and pointed to a sign saying their licence isn’t for under 16’s after 9 we also mentioned that we were originally suppose to have a 3 year old with us and she responded that he wouldn’t have been served!! We then had to inform our waitress who come to take our dessert order that we weren’t allowed to order and had to leave to which she apologised. At no point through booking, or arriving or throughout our meal were we advised of this despite booking a 7.30 meal with 2 children! I understand they hold a license to which they must abide by however, to be informed of this in the rude manner we were, was absolutely disgusting and we will most certainly not be attending again!! What an awful upsetting way to end graduation celebrations, such a shame!! Thankfully, at least the £5 for a three year old was sorted and we received the deposit back!

A great place to meet and enjoy good traditional pub food. A super menu with a great choice of starters, main course and sweets. All prices are reasonable. I enjoyed a beautiful 16 oz gammon which had a good selection of potato options and served with Pineapple or egg, salad and peas, followed by apple and blackberry crumble, It was very tasty indeed! It is clearly a popular destination for dinner as the pub was nicely full and it’s worth pre-booking. The staff were friendly and efficient. Our meals were served piping hot and everyone said how much they had enjoyed the evening. Thank you Wayne and Gill.

16 of us for food and everything was spot on. Not 1 complaint. We can't wait to come back.

Brilliant, good food excellent service and great atmosphere. Thanks

Visiting from Germany, this was not an everyday experience for us. I managed two courses - Belgian paté on toast to start, then the 16oz gammon. The gammon was juicy and not too salty and really well cooked. Unfortunately, we were all too full to order the delicious-looking desserts. Prompt and friendly service topped a fabulous evening.

Best Sunday dinner weve had in a while.. food came quickly and waitresses and waiter was lovely. Will definitely be back. Ice cream Sundays were a little pricey but were lush!

lovely food and desserts with decent prices

Food fabulous good service nice place

A really popular restaurant so booking is necessary. Delicious homemade food. Especially enjoy the Sunday lunch and would definitely recommend

Amazing food as always and always a friendly service in a warm welcoming traditional Welsh pub.

Lovely cosy place food excellent staff lovely cant fault anything .

This was our first visit but won't be the last. A fantastic old pub with a modern outlook on service, quality and price. Can't wait to go back.

Beautiful food and excellent service, highly recommend

Fantastic pub/restaurant to visit. The decor inside is rustic and warm. All meals served were fantastic, with no complaints what so ever. I had the steak and ale pie, which would highly recommend.

Was told there were no free tables, but there were only 2 tables occupied at the time we arrived. The place looked empty

Absolutely loved this place! The food was lovely, the staff so friendly and super efficient, the atmosphere was brilliant, definitely come again, highly reccomend Thank you Corner House Xx

Lovely food for my birthday. With family. Grew up going there.

Lovely little place for food and drink. Food was delicious and decent price.

Service was superb, food was fantastic and the portion sizes were more than enough. Couldn’t finish there was that much, which is a shame having to leave food that was that good.

Stunning out of town pub. Food was lovely yet again. The portions are large to say the least.... Visited last week for my parents golden wedding anniversary. And again this evening for a dinner date... The owners are very friendly and make you feel welcome.... Will definitely be visiting again.

Excellent food at reasonable prices

Great atmosphere and server was friendly and prompt.

Food excellent, cooked to perfection.

Everything is great in this place can't find a fault on anything

Food and service excellent, staff were very friendly and helpful

Food was very good, and serving sizes were quite large.

We went to the corner house inn today the food was great the service was excellent and the ambience was just as it should be very oldie worldie. Will definitely be coming back

Amazing food, welcoming staff, great service.

Avoid at all costs!! We booked a table of 14 in advance for a birthday. We where shown to two separate tables, when questioned the owner said you would have been told on booking (we where not!). We felt unwelcome from the off, being told that we had 15 minutes to order our food otherwise we where not aloud to order. Some of our party where still struggling to park (due to the tiny car park available) and therefore hadn’t even sat down yet. As soon as the whole party arrived, we were swiftly asked to order and felt pressured into ordering straight away (not having chance to read the full menu). I suggest that in future if this restaurant can not sit a large party together or handle a large booking then they should not take such a booking. Another option perhaps; previous restaurants have asked us to pre book meals the day before as we are such a large party, this would be a far nicer option than putting a large party under pressure to order immediately. We where then also told that again because we where two tables that we would have to separate bills, at this point we just found the experience laughable. We then proceeded to order. Duck bon bons on the menu sounded lovely and quite a few of our party fancied these. After taking 5 orders they proceeded to tell other they where now out of stock. In hind sight, with such a rush to get menu orders in perhaps one of the staff members could have pre informed us of any items which were low in stock before ordering. (This also may not have been an issue had we been offered a pre order service). A few members of our party ordered the pie, very disappointing! The filling was cold and pastry under done on all of the pies ordered. Despite this all of the other food was amazing and perhaps we could have forgotten about the experience thus far however, the experience was about to get a whole lot worse. Desserts came out very intermittently with some people finishing theirs before others had been served. After 20 minutes or so the desserts had stopped arriving and the youngest member of our party (4 years old) was left without his ice cream. We where not asked if everything was ok with the desserts and had to leave the table, and fetch a member of staff from the bar (they where all crowded around the owner’s phone watching something) to get the missing ice cream. There was no apology for the missing ice cream. There where signs up which stated that under 16s had to be off the premises by 9pm however, as 9pm passed a member of staff took a drinks order from us without mention of us having to leave or the kids for that matter. We where then left for 20 minutes without offer of getting us the bill. At 20 past 9 we where then told quite rudely by a staff member “I have been asked to remind you that children should not be on the premises any longer and they need to leave” to which we replied why where we served drinks, left alone for 20 minutes without offer of anything further or the bill. When paying the bill my father-in-law mentioned that it was a bit silly to serve us drinks if the children had to leave and that a bit of nice customer service and a reminder of the time might have been nice. At which point the owner stormed off towards the kitchen shouting what a "f*****g p***k" as he went. Our table with these young children on being right by the kitchen door! When called out on such a way to speak about a customer we were met with confrontation from the owner and of course no apology for the profound language! We spent as a large table over £400 that night and to be called that in ear shot of all customers was appalling. Perhaps we would have been out before 9pm had the desserts all arrived in a timely manner and a drinks order not taken after 9pm. We were hoping to return after really enjoying the other meals (not the pie) however, due to this experience I would never ever recommend this place to anyone! We wish we read the other reviews before booking. It seems a regular occurrence for large parties to feel un welcome and for the owner to be rude.

Disappointed with service. Had to wait 40 minutes.

Food lovely staff friendly clean inviting resturant good value for money will go back

We had amazing food and service. However, there is no beer garden where children and adults can enjoy.

Went there for my birthday. Fab food. Friendly staff, we will return

Always top notch food and great service

Had steak and ribs combo. Really nice however I prefer my ribs to fall apart whereas these ones didn't. Everything else was spot on

My favourite pub/restaurant in the world. There every week.

Fantastic food outstanding staff Wayne is a great hoast very warm and welcoming it's our favourite experience we will be back

Very rude manager, poor experience, won't go there again. Comparing the two, save your money and go across to the Old House... lovely food and great staff and the views are breathtaking.

Always a beautiful meal with friendly and attentive staff. Love the cosy atmosphere. Fantastic!!

Always top food here and visit regular

Amazing food and really friendly staff

Visited the Corner House today, highly impressed by the quality, taste and presentation of the food together with good service. Best ribeye steak I’ve tasted. Looking forward to my next visit.

Stunning food one of my favourite places.

Very good service friendly atmosphere really enjoyed the meal staff marvellous

Top bit of food and service as always 10/10

Excellent service, first class food. The staff are very friendly. Nice comfortable atmosphere. Will definitely use again.

Outstanding Sunday lunch first class service & spotless all the best see you soon

Haven't been for a few years due to covid and busy life, but we had a lovely time, good food, good service, and could actually hear the conversation with our friends unlike the noisy old house. Nice and clean, and Wayne has done a great job on keeping it nice as a traditional old pub. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Great food and a great experience for the new year!

We visited for a family Sunday and had a fantastic experience. The place itself is cosy and welcoming and the staff were the same. I strongly recommend booking as the popularity of the place means a walk in won't have too much chance. We had the choice of beef or turkey dinners on the Christmas menu and both were enjoyed by those that had them. The portions are enormous!! The place is known for it and it wasn't just for Christmas. I can't stress enough how much you get!!! There's a good range of drinks on offer too and it's all reasonably priced. Well worth a visit and in a historic place to wander around after.

Always delicious food and excellent and polite service

Great welcome and service good food too

Stunning food going again tonight can't wait

My sister and I had a wonderful lunch today. The staff were friendly and attentive and the food was delicious. Thank you

Authentic pub grub with big portions at a reasonable price

Nice meal, lovely restaurant, happy helpful staff. Fitted us in without a booking.

Had Sunday lunch today Absolutely the best one around Home cooked and plenty of it Would highly recommend

Very nice and clean and top quality food for the price you pay you would be disappointed try it 😉

Had a table booked for 8 people for a birthday celebration on 28/10/22 and Felt unwelcome as soon we arrived. Was shown to our table in “the cage” (not exactly an appealing name is it?). We Had a birthday cake but was told by the staff that the couldn’t even touch it because of covid regulations so I could put it in the display case myself and we could collect it we needed it. If covid was such an issue why didn’t I see any of the staff in masks or sanatise their hands at any point? Sat down and started chatting as you do when the staff told us that we had to order within 15 minutes of sitting or they couldn’t put our orders in. Taken aback a bit we looked at the menus and made our selections quickly as we were being watched. The salmon was ordered and as meant to come with asparagus but was told there was none available. When the waitress was asked what was being served with it instead she just said “nothing, it’ll just come without”. She was then asked if the £1.50 supplement for the sweet potato fries could be waived in lieu of the asparagus and was told “I doubt it, I’ll ask but if they say yes it’ll be a miracle!” Turns out no miracle was to come as the request was denied. A few ordered starters and they came out relatively quickly however the pate was embarrassingly tiny, it is literally served in a ramekin that you would usually be served a sauce in, just bigger than a thimble. While the starters were being eaten, we were ‘checked on’ at least 8 times in about 15 minutes, which made the entire table feel on edge, ruched and like we had overstayed our welcome even though we hadn’t been there half hour at this point. When we had finished the starters they couldn’t wait to collect the plates, not that they went out of their way to get the plates, they just gestured at as to pass them down the table so they didn’t have to move. Again, the mains came out quite quickly albeit on cold plates. But not only was there a fly in one of the kids food, the salmon missing the asparagus but also the dauphinois. At this point we’d had enough so sent the meal back that had added insect and just dealt with the rest of the issues. Not only were we being watched again while we were eating, half way through the meal another waitress came over to take the salt, pepper, and vinegar set off the table because they had to be “changed over”. When it was time to get the cake (myself obviously, of course they couldn’t touch it) the bar man was very helpful and organised to get us a lighter from the kitchen. When the waitress came back she said the kitchen needed it straight back and stood right next to us until we had finished lighting the candles. All in all, the food was lovely but it was a shambles of an experience. I can’t blame the staff because they were only doing as they have been told and shown how to behave. I have worked in restaurants the majority of my working life including very well known and high end restaurants and I would be absolutely ashamed if my staff acted the way these did. Whom ever is pretending to manage / run this place seriously need to look at themselves because if you are allowing this level of disservice to continue then hospitality is not for you! Feel absolutely robbed.

Stunning food and exceptional cooked dinners one of my favourites

Really nice pub and great food 👌

Excellent Sunday roast. Great options on the sides and veg

Lovely food,good selection. Sunday roasts are lovely! And so rare to find home cooked style food these days!

Lovely good quality food. Happy and helpful staff and has price ranges to suite every pocket.

Our first visit here. Lovely cosy place and delicious food deffinetly visit again

Loved it food was great, and cracking pint cheers Wayne.

Amazing service and food! Happy days 🥰

Visited on Tuesday evening the 24th of May at 7pm,it was very busy in the restaurant but the staff were brilliant, polite and friendly. We were a party of seven and asked if they could fit us in, the gentlemen said they could but we may have too wait a while for service. We ordered a selection of drinks and were seated within twenty minutes we had menus and and our orders were taken. The quality and quantity of food which we had was great. The menu had a great choice and very reasonable price. The party we were in had travelled from London and Ireland. I have no problem about visiting your inn on my next visit and recommend anyone who visits this part of WALES to seek this little gem out Thank you 😊 😊

Excellent food, great service, warm atmosphere and reasonably priced

Outstanding food ,beers ,&service

Superb pub food, generous portions, excellent quality of food all set in a beautiful ancient pub complete with fire places.

Fabulous welcome lovely place good selection and fab food 👍

10 of us went for 70th birthday. They were very unwelcoming from the time we arrived. There was another party of 10 that arrived after us and they were put on a table all together which is what it should be for a family party. But we were put on 2 seperate tables one of 6 and one of 4 theses table were kept apart by a corridor space so they could pass us all night to get to the kitchen. So we were not able to speak to anyone. Yet there was another long table that we could have been all together. My husbands 70th was nearly ruined by all this but was saved by all our family being there together making it a night for him to remember. Don’t go there if you have a family celebration that you want to remember for the right reasons.

Paid for deposits for 18 family members for my husbands 60th birthday, on the day before 3 of us tested positive for Covid. When I rung the Corner House to let them know we couldn’t make it there was no problem at all for having the deposits back. Just wish other local companies were just as understanding.

Lovely food and just the right amount served. Pudding finished off a great evening. Staff and surroundings very welcoming.

4 of us had steak all cooked different ways and they were all chewy everything else was good

Warm welcome. Food quality excellent (really recommend the T-bone steak), wine list okay. Certainly worth a return visit.

Absolutely stunning food and service

Really nice food at very reasonable prices

The food is first class and plenty of it a very good friendly atmosphere. I would recommend this establishment to one and all it's well worth a visit.

Excellent meal we had a mix of the menu from steaks,fish and Curry's and everyone enjoyed will definitely recommend

Beautiful Sunday lunch will definitely be back

Fantastic food and great staff and lovely and warm on a chilly day
