We took our family out for Sunday lunch and as we hadn’t been before we decided we would try it…. And I have to say we will not be returning. Our 2 grandchildren had meals from the kids menu and is adults had the set Easter Sunday menu. Ordered our starters and asked for the little ones food to come out same time..starters were lovely and the one child’s meal (chicken nuggets and chips) was also great however, fish fingers and chips for the other child was not. Chips ok but the batter on the fish fingers was so dark and rock solid. There was no way she could even eat them (she is 4). On raising this to the attention of staff they were quick to cook another portion. . The waiter (colourful shirt & trainers) brought the new lot out by which time the chips from the first plate were cold . He said and I quote ‘it’s the oil hit these are done they are not overcooked’. They were darker and more rock hard than the first lot. How on earth he had the cheek to even bring it out of the kitchen beats me. He knew that he should never of let it leave the kitchen. Thanks to the common sense of the waitress who took the price of the meal off our bill and agreed and apologised for the fact that it was over done in oil I might add that was too hot and not fresh fresh. We ordered them 2 ice creams in a bowl to be served with our mains. Mains came… flat and so dry and overly crispy, beef which we 2 of us had… very dry and hard to chew…veg… one carrot baton and 1 parsnip baton, handful peas and surprisingly mange tout… the latter is a new one on me with Sunday lunch. Then said waiter brought my grandchildren their bowls of ice cream… he just in a nutshell pushes it in front of them… how dare he. Another waitress came over and was so sweet and she said let me take them and put some choc sauce on them and get them a wafer. I have to say it was so disappointing… every 2 mins I had to call one of them (and was so embarrassed that I had to keep doing that)…waited a while to have our drinks order.. I had to ask in the end for some service…needed another placement (we were a booking of 5 but only 4 laid up.. more napkins, asked for horseradish sauce with roasts… had to ask for that to be brought out, were told that little ones could have colouring and crayons to keep occupied… had to chase that. I get that they may have had a really busy day… mistakes happen… but whoever cooked our food needs to be given some more training or be shadowed because their standards seriously have slid. Very obvious everything is cooked and reheated.. most things rock hard, dry or mush. The male waiter who may be a manager ?.. was so clearly miffed by the way he just dumped the ice creams in front of a 4yr old and a 3yr old with no sauce or waiter or even a spoon. He needs customer service training as his certainly was amiss today. I have had training with Marston’s in kitchen, restaurant and bar. I will not be returning.

The Duke of Wellington has always been a favourite when visiting Cowbridge but today was different. Our starters were fine, but the main courses were poor. My vegetable tart was obviously pre-cooked and the re-heating rendered it almost burnt. The other meal was just average. There was a shortage of staff and those working were clearly unhappy. Finally a dog was allowed up to the table and spread itself onto the table and remained there for the duration. No-one advised the owner to remove the animal. Disappointing.

Had an evening meal had 2 of the vegetarian tarts with roast vegetables. It looked really nice on the plate and the tart was nice. The veg wasn't very warm also the roast potatoes were very hard on outside as though cooked early and then just warmed. Should of complained but just didn't bother and nobody came to see if it was OK. Not really exceptable to warm the leftover veg from lunchtime when could of easily made fresh mash which was on menu with other dishes. The meal could of been so much nicer. It has probably put me off from having a meal here again unless ordering a different meal that's cooked fresh. Your paying for a meal I would expect it to be nice I feel i would cook better at home. Would call in just for drinks as it is a lovely old pub.

We come here regularly and always find the staff to be very friendly and welcoming. They are always polite and helpful, greeted with a smile and ever since the first visit we have been welcomed by name, made to feel like they truly do care. They take a pride in their food and customer service. There is a good variety of food and everything that we have tried has been of a very good standard, plentiful and tasty. Today I had pork belly which was a special and it was delightful, perfectly cooked and coated in maple syrup which gave a sweet and salty flavour. Would highly recommend the pork belly and the Duke of Wellington in general.

I was looking at my options before deciding on the DoW for my wife’s birthday meal. And I can categorically say that I made the right choice, all five of us who dined had a different dish and we all equally enjoyed it. The staff are excellent, this is a well run pup and it’s also very good value for money. The ambience is positive.

Always love eating and having a drink in this lovely pub, BUT on the last two occasions its been pretty disappointing due to one member of staff, Cara . Rude, disrespectful, absolutely no customer of service and obviously doesn't enjoy her job. A face like thunder and unapproachable. A person who shouldn't be front of house.

Popped in here as our go to the Vale of Glamorgan were not doing food today. Barman really friendly. Food took a while to come but the atmosphere was nice, with the open fire roaring and it was busy. My mum had scampi, my hubby and I had gammon, egg and chips, we really enjoyed it. My dad had pie, mash and green beans, the portion was really small and he was still hungry when we left, which is disappointing as it was £14, shame. We will return as the meals were great apart from the pie and mash.

We were a party of 6. Staff were helpful and service was efficient. We all looked at the pub menu prior to arrival to save time for eating and relaxing. Two had starters, one was the Bruschetta comprising a piece of lightly toasted baguette topped with sliced cherry tomatoes and cubes of feta (?) and a drizzle. The person eating it enjoyed it but it looked like a very basic open sandwich and quite expensive given the contents and minimal preparation involved. Also, two of the group opted for steak and chips. The steaks were modest in size, perhaps overcooked or not good meat in the first place, the sirloin was tough and supposed to be well marbled. Definitely not either. Other steak was to be 'medium' but was well done. Moreover, while the menu offers sides at extra cost none was requested by those eating the steak. Both meals were served on large (mixed grill) type plates with a paltry serving of chips and one mushroom! The feel good salad: some green leaf, roasted minimal pepper slices and courgette with a drizzle and a 'side' of chicken - a small piece of chicken breast was £15.50. Although we are aware that these are tough times for catering 3 out of 6 meals were disappointing.

Christmas lunch for our family. The pub was understandably busy for Christmas Day. The maitre d' was keeping an eye on things, the young blonde man wearing a Christmas hat and serving us was delightful, the dark haired chap served with a side of compere good humour, the older guy wearing a Christmas jumper was jolly, the blonde waitress in black was sullen, bordering on rude. The food was great, all three courses, the ambience excellent, overall super, thanks. We'd come again!

We booked lunch for 12 pm . On arrival at 12 th front door was locked so we went around the side entrance.on opening the door we found ourselves I a corridor with toilet sign on wall . The interior was grubby and unkempt and we didn’t know where we were meant to go . We decided that due to the uncleanliness of what we saw we really didn’t want to eat there if the general hygiene of the interior was that bad . We left a message saying we won’t be eating there after all and left .

We booked a table for Sunday lunch for 2 people and a dog. The place is supposed to be dog friendly and we have been here in the past without any issues. The bar manager had a bit of an attitude from the start. Very unwelcoming and just stated you'll have to see if there is a seat in the bar even though we had a confirmed booking. After waiting for a seat for 20 mins and no sign of people getting ready to leave, I went back to the bar manager and said that we were struggling to find somewhere. He said what do you want me to about it with continued bad attitude!! I responded with something like that's a bit rude and gave him the menus back. The verbal abuse I received back was shocking. We left immediately and will never return. He will probably respond to this review and say something different but this experience has been reflected accurately. Work on those customer service skills!

A great experience which started with the booking service, so easy!! On arrival our party of five were shown to our table by the excellent Zoe. We were given time and space to plan our order and Zoe was very accommodating when some our group decided to try and have three main courses. We all had so much fun and a great evening was had by all. The food was amazing and the portions were generous, so much so that we couldn’t manage the three courses. We were grateful to Blair for leaving the kitchen to enable us to thank him and his staff, especially Zoe, for making our visit so pleasant. We’ll be back!!

When taking our food we were told half of the menu wasn't available. Not ideal but I don't mind changing my mind so we ordered Calamari & a bruschetta to start: My calamari was alright, can't really go wrong with it it's just fried squid, but my partner's bruschetta was just completely anaemic, the bread had hardly been toasted/grilled at all, it just looked like a slice of white bread, with the most crazy amount of pesto spread on top. We love pesto as much as the next person but nobody needs about two tablespoons of pesto spread on untested white bread. That is not bruschetta. On the menu the tomatoes were described as "marinated", with what I do not know as they just looked and tasted very much like shop bought cherry tomatoes cut in half. The mains: x2 Homemade kebabs, chicken&chorizo for me, halloumi and pepper for my partner. My partner's halloumi was completely dried out, rock hard, and cold. Which is strange considering it wasn't burnt to a crisp. This can only mean it's not that it was cooked for too long, but that it had been dried out and left to sit there before service. Both of our flatbreads were cold and hadn't looked to have been cooked in anyway. Like the bread for the bruschetta above: anaemic. The seasoned skinny fries tasted nice but I'm not sure either one of us had a fry longer in length than 3cm. It looked like the scraps had just been served to us. Tasty, nonetheless. I myself hate onions, both in cooked form and raw. I ordered the kebab thinking there would be no onions on it considering, you know, it's not listed on the menu with all the things included on the kebab. The kebab arrived with 3 (three) different types of onions: grilled red, grilled white, raw red diced. Had there only been the grilled onion on the skewer I could've just picked them off and all would've been fine. Due to the raw red onion scattered all over the kebab it was rendered inedible for myself due to the raw onion liquid&smell having permeated the entire kebab. Even my partner, who is a fan of onions, commented on how there was no need to have three different types of onion in the dish. I fear this is turning into a rant against onions at this point so I'll end the mains review with this: Please list onions as an element of the dish on the menu so that onions lovers&haters alike can be fully informed on what they're about to spend £15 on. Side: Probably the low point of the meal. We shared a cheesy garlic bread. Visually it actually looked quite appealing. The taste & smell however confirmed to me the one major sin of shambolic garlic bread: the garlic was raw. This was unfortunately inedible. I'm not sure who's at fault as in the food industry it could be any number of things: Underpaid chef Overworked chef Undertrained chef An owner skimping on cheap ingredients who knows? Despite all this: it is a lovely venue it must be said. The interior is nice and the beer garden I can imagine is stunning on a warm day. The bones are definitely there for a lovely eating experience, it's just a bit disheartening when you spend north of £50 on genuinely terrible food when anyone can buy their own ingredients and cook a better meal at home with nothing more than a YouTube how-to video. It's hard for people to support local businesses and eat out when that's the experience they get, sadly.

Sunday lunch is incredible. Ham hock is ginormous, definitely enough for about 3 meals. Its served with new potatoes, green beans and peas. The meat is just perfect and honestly the best Sunday lunch I think I've had for a very long time. Service is spot on and so friendly, the pub is unassuming from the outside but wonderfully atmospheric and "oldy worldly" inside. Firmly recommended for a light snack, drinks or the Sunday lunch.

Old pub and a popular haunt in Cowbridge for many years. A friendly local serving Brains and Marstons. Good value food available too.

We visit this wonderful restaurant regularly, and have never been disappointed. Sunday lunch is particularly good, good sized portions of extremely tasty food, well served and an excellent atmosphere
