Dyffryn Arms in Neath Port Talbot

I absolutely love this place, I've never had a bad meal here ever, in all the years I've been eating here. Staff are lush as always, food was amazing as always. The atmosphere is like being at home with your family eating.

Great food and a great atmosphere. Really enjoyed.

Amazing setting with great food. Service was quick and friendly there. Card payments are taken. Overall a great place to relax and enjoy food with a warm feeling.

Lovely food excellent service good value. Lovely staff.thank you. On my own made to feel very comfortable and safe. Lovely chap front of house

Great country pub, great food. Good out door play area for the kids

As a member of a family evening out having a meal togetherI experienced good food and service there was a lot of cross chat and laughter on occasion. However I was seated in a continuous cross draught caused by two wide open windows leaving me chilled throughout my time there.In all other respects it was a lovely evening where our whole group enjoyed the event and the atmosphere. We will certainly return and hope to enjoy a similar evening (without the draught). For prospective new customers I can readily recommend this diner pub for good food and relaxed atmosphere..

Very helpful friendly staff. Lovely food. Very helpful with allergies. Very clean. Busy local pub! Lots of parking space. Lovely children's play area. Dog friendly!!! Nice outdoor seating area.

Beautiful food fab service very friendly and polite would always go there very impressed

Lovely meal, Son had Gammon and brie starter, , his fiancée had Steak pasta brie starter. I had halloumi fries, salmon and vegetables, chocolate brownie for dessert and Son had sticky toffee pudding all lovely. Really nice place

Would highly recommend, a very good home cooked meal with a great vegetarian offering and fantastic service definitely will go again.

Great food great atmosphere, the waitress was amazing such a lovely attitude and friendly. Will definitely go again. Also has a lovely play area for the kids if we get some dry weather.

It’s a lovely place to meet for food, cozily done. Food is nice and tasty, while staff are friendly and attentive. We had a table for six and everyone enjoyed. There were veggie vegan choices, and the specials board had some good looking food. The pub is dog friendly (but not in all spaces so check before booking). Lots of car spaces, an outside sitting area. There’s even a kids area outside, and I suspect there are nearby paths to walk off a good meal. Certainly worth a positive review, we are on a Tuesday and the pub was busy which is good to see.

Had the Steak & Ale Pie. Can honestly say that this was the best Steak & Ale Pie, I have ever had!

Came here for a birthday meal and was so impressed at how lovely the food was. Super fast service and the food was absolutely delicious - already can’t wait to go back! Thank you

Service and staff great, food great , ordered - Pasta , veggie lasagna , 8oz rump steak (cooked superbly) , 2 x children's sausages and chips , all cooked nice , good atmosphere too , Go again - - - oh yes

Terrible food. Terrible service. Awful atmosphere. Almost to the point I felt I was inconveniening them by asking them for a meal. NEVER AGAIN! MY 8oz STEAK LOOKED LIKE A CHEAPY BURGER (THAT YOU GET 8 FOR A QUID OR SOMETHING). LITERALLY ONE OF THE WORST MEALS IVE "EVER" EATEN. HATED IT!!! And my partners meal was even worse. I think ive said enough tho.......quite sad. Gutted. And it all cost OVER £40!!! Now look, i love eating good food and dont mind paying for it, THIS, UNFORTUNATELY was NOT one of those times.

Great food, great service and a lovely environment. Thanks to all concerned

Great food, quick service, friendly staff and really excellent menu choices.

First time at the duffryn must say meal was first class food was generous hot and service was good thanks 👍

Lovely food, but not expensive. Friendly, helpful staff and a nice atmosphere though.

Had an amazing Sunday lunch and a delicious lemon cheesecake for dessert . First class service from all staff . Thank you all at the Dyffryn

Sunday lunch was delicious and had an amazing lemon cheesecake for dessert lovely pub with friendly staff who gave first class service .. thanks guys

Food was absolutely amazing, would definitely go again!!!!

Very happy with total evening staff very good food excellent very enjoyable time .

Went for my grandson’s birthday so four children with us. They made us feel very welcome. A great choice of food and all very tasty. Will be going back soon 👏

Absolutely lovely. Staff very professional Food spot on. Well recommend you book.

I was hugely surprised ( shocked) , having had lunch here on several previous occasions, to find that I should have booked? I was informed on arrival that food would be 40 minutes, well OK I could do that (just), Unfortunately I was then informed that this was until I would be ALLOWED to order, never mind how long it might take for the food to actually appear. As a vegetarian the menu was less than inspiring and coupled with the very cold welcome I received I decided to take my custom else where. I recently had lunch in well known restaurant in a nearby seaside town which was twice as busy when I got there but which welcomed me straight away and provided an excellent meal (from a wider selection) with a cheerful welcome. Sorry but I won't be going back to the Dyffryn and time soon.

I ordered two Pepsi Max's which were served on draught and were flat as pancakes. Both drinks had no fizz to them whatsoever and I paid over £7 for them, just for two drinks!! A very disappointing visit, I won't be going there again in a hurry. They're too expensive and most especially when the drinks arrive flat. The wait time was too long as well, we stood there for about ten minutes watching someone dry glasses. Not very polite staff, she could've acknowledged us but didn't. Our car was also dented in the car park. We wished we'd stayed at home or gone somewhere else.

The food was amazing we had Sunday dinner it was delicious. The service was quick and everyone was friendly. It was very busy which says to me they are very good.

as we passed along Neath road the pub looked inviting so on the spur of the moment we popped in hoping we could get a table. Nice welcome shown to nice cozy seats. Table service drinks ordered and then food ordered, lovely young man took our order and not long to wait our lasagna for me gammon for my wife arrive and they didn't skimp on the amount of food either. the bill came to £39.00...will not worry about calling again....the landlord/owners are Polish.

First time visiting. Invited out for a friend’s birthday meal. Very nice inside, good atmosphere quick service, lovely food. I’d certainly visit here again.

Food wasn't the best. The curry tasted like it was out of a jar, and the chips were burnt, and cold. Sorry I wouldn't recommend

My food was delicious, although marking down a star as it looked like my dad’s lamb was chewy in places. Park great for the kids. Would happily return!

Lovely food, proper traditional pub.

Good chicken nuggets homemade chips and a delicious waffle the freshness of the blueberry’s and raspberries brought out the sweetness of the chocolate waffle proper good pub.

Christmas 2023. Dinner was lovely, great atmosphere. The staff are very polite and helpful, family friendly country Pub/Restaurant Highly recommend The Dyffryn Arms.

Delicious food Lovely service and friendly atmosphere.

We've been dining at the Dyffryn for many years and had always found it good value! Our last visit, with two friends will be our last! Portions are small and prices have soared! We had deserts, one of which was Bread and butter pudding with one scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. The bread and butter pudding was very small but cost £8! We're voting with our feet! I will say that the staff there are very nice as always!

Really good food and service. Will definately return in the near future. Good atmosphere and pleasant staff. Easy for parking

Food ok I had salmon Hubby had shin beef with Mash Service excellent Wine nice But Surprised to find NO toilet paper in my toilet cubicle ( ladies )

Had to visit the ladies Shocked to find no toilet paper in my cubicle 🤷‍♀️

Special anniversary lunch. Special ma eal of the day was hake fillets , I had sea bass with cockles and laverbread veloute. Both dishes were beautifully cooked and presented. Apple crumble for dessert was delicious too. A very good experience.

Booked for Christmas Dinner been here on many other occasions . highly recommend it; a cosy country family restaurant, with excellent customer service and good-quality food. A five star rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Tasty food, good menu, nice pub

Food was nice, drink was nice book a table is wise as a number of people turned away as they had bookings

We have been here before and as usual the food was excellent, staff are very friendly and efficient. The three of us all had a very tasty and well presented meals.

On website, states Pub closes at 10pm, not 9.30 on a Monday, like tonight. Bill for 3 people £94, bottle of house red £21. Pub is overpriced. All veg undercooked.

We visited for a family meal for a birthday. Staff were amazing, food was excellent and such a homely and friendly atmosphere. 100% can recommend!

Very busy lots of people eating. Food tasted as lovely as it looked. I was with a large group of 19 people for a birthday party . So many other meals I'd love to go back and try. All of the food was hot, everyone enjoyed their food. Desserts were yummy. Overall look forward to returning. Staff were all friendly and attentive. Was a lovely fun evening.

Amazing service, amazing staff always welcoming and very helpful. The food was amazing. we had the Christmas menu and was very tasty

A lovely country pub with a log fire to keep you warm. Food looked fantastic too !

Really friendly warm welcome. A real fire! Food fabulous, didn’t have to wait long for it. Nut roast so tasty and veg highly recommend! Will be coming back regularly. Went with 10 friends everyone really happy

Large carpark. Child friendly park. Lovely clean pub/ restaurant. Attentive friendly staff. Busy with bookings but managed to squeeze us in, inbetween without a booking. Served quickly. Nice food, large drinks selection, something for everyone. Take both card & cash.

Lovely evening with fab food and service

Superb food and service. Great warm inviting atmosphere. The food is always good and consistent, I go every month and never had a bad meal.

As usual, everything fabulous. We all had the food off the Xmas menu and everyone enjoyed what they had. Thank you.

I had read Tripadvisor recently to find that previous patrons reported very small portions so I wasn't surprised to find that the portions were very small. A vegan in our group had a very small meal, cauliflower gratin. It had an inner plate with a very small amount of cauliflower, two slivers of garlic bread and a side salad to try and fill the plate. Our scampi and chips came in two small wire baskets, reducing the portion size considerably. The vegan paid £14, ours were around £18. Very disappointing, I wish I had taken photos.

This is a fabulous venue for getting together with friends to eat wonderful food. I had a 3 course meal, the salmon and prawn starter, a turkey dinner and cheesecake, ( the best I had ever eaten ) The food was excellent, tasty and faultless. All served so well ,by extremely, pleasant and helpful staff. The place had a lovely Christmassy atmosphere , warm , clean and inviting. I thoroughly recommend the Dyffryn Arms and can't wait to return. Have a lovely Christmas all the fab staff !!

First Xmas meal this year. Very quiet there for a Thursday which was nice as not too noisy. Turkey dinner Tasted beautiful, could of done with a little more veg. Gravy was gorgeous. Not sure how I felt about the trifle, too many berries & not enough 'trifle'. Lovely warm mince pies with coffee to finish. Excellent attentive service all the way through. Will definitely eat there again.

Beautiful restaurant. Food was delicious and great quality. Nice and homely feel inside the pub. Nice big carpark. Can't wait to come back 😊

Party of 9 we all enjoyed the experience thabk you

Food was excellent friendly family atmosphere great service

Lovely food great staff and an open fire what more do you want see you soon !

Excellent food in an idyllic setting. Great staff 5 stars.

Not good value a family lunch out for 9 it was Sunday lunch more like kid’s meals to be given one roast potatoe and one boiled each and one slice of meat one dish of veg and after having to ask for more and given a dish of peas and a few carrots is shocking 2 boats of gravy not what you expect from the dyffryn bryncoch ‘ staff great value for money terrible hopefully not invited there for a long time

We've eaten at the Dyffryn arms for years and always recommended it to friends and taken visitors there for meals. We had a meal there last week with friends and were shocked at the prices of the food and drinks!! The main meals were reasonably priced but the desserts and drinks were ridiculous! Very mean portions for dessert!! This is such a shame as it's always been a favourite place to dine! We're voting with our feet!!

Lovely night with friends. Food was affordable and well presented. I had fish but not to sure it was cod though, a bit bland. But in all fairness it did only say fish on the menu. Staff were great, polite and very helpful.

I had a lovely meal as always. Food is always good and good value.

I've been here every 2 weeks for years, so it's not an unbiased report. Great atmosphere, staff, and real ale.

Beautiful place lots of room in between tables staff very friendly and helpful didn't wait long for our meals food was beautiful.

Amazing sunday dinner, plenty of food, and the vegetable soup was outstanding as normal. Claudia was amazing as a manager.

Tried the duf as told it has improved since last owners, but failed to impress, turkey processed, beff was brisket...

A true hidden gem! Fantastic fresh and imaginative dishes, good produce, really lovely food and friendly atmosphere, always busy, staff work really hard, prices reflect the quality of the food and presentation and are really worth it for a treat or special occasion! The curry is really nice and the beef short rib is simply perfect! Drinks reasonable and well looked after beers. Always interesting specials on too!

Been to Dyffryn Arms many times and enjoyed the experience. Tonight really disappointed the bill for four people came to almost £100. The staff were friendly that’s the positives. The negatives are that I ordered ribeye steak. I asked if I could have an extra tomato to replace the mushroom which I dislike. The waitress very politely told me she didn’t think the kitchen would allow my request. (They didn’t ) at a cost of £23 I don’t think giving a tomato would affect their profit margin. No jacket potatoes . Steak was quite gristly. Dessert no choice I had a brownie last visit was good tonight seemed dry . At almost £7 didn’t know that as no price on the board that they brought to the table. If we had thought to ask wouldn’t have ordered . Also tables very close together. Expected better as we had praised the Dyffryn to our friends.

Food is always enjoyable and the staff are very friendly.

Clean village pub with a play area and plenty of parking. Outside seating. Food very tasty and plentiful but very, very limited vegetarian options. Very limited dessert options so declined.

Good food, good draught selection and friendly staff. Nice outdoor seating with a good kids play area. Large car park.

Visited the Dyffryn Arms today for lunch. Been here in the past and always say we must go back as food was great. Today we did and we will definitely not leave it so long before visiting again. The menu had something for everyone. The quality of the food was outstanding and I very rarely have desserts as it’s the same old thing in most places; sticky toffee pudding or cheesecake. Today I had the choice of Eton Mess and Crème Brûlée. Decisions, decisions - I went for the Eton Mess and it was delicious. Great service and friendly staff.

Just had a fantastic meal, so good we’ve booked a table to go again in a couple of days. Hake for me and lamb chops for my wife, both from the specials board. The chips are out of this world. Service is very quick and efficient despite them being fully booked. Recommended!

Absolutely brilliant meal.Really impressed with service & attitude of staff.The food was amazing 😊 Will definitely call again soon

We eat here quite a lot ,food always spot on lush,went today for tea, the aptitude of the young woman behind the bar us absolutely atrocious, we felt we good enough to be in there, I an not skint but quite well off,my partner is a staff nurse if 30 years, we are both in our sixties, she made us feel like we were both back in school, please have a word with this young woman, she has got big chip on her shoulder, it's such a shame, because it's beautiful place, regards, frightened to leave a name in case she bannes us,

Very friendly place to take the family. Pleasant staff and lovely food. Even has a play area for the kids outside. Highly recommended.

The food was great staff friendly halpfull

Sunday lunch today was simply fantastic and the best roast we’ve had out for a long time. Servers were efficient, attentive and professional. All round excellent.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was excellent and the dessert was out of this world.

Lovely place. the food was good. I would return Friendly atmosphere

Would have enjoyed jacket potato as a choice....

First time having a meal here and it won't be the last excellent food lovely happy friendly staff highly recommend

Nice and cozy pub. Parking available and there's a park for kids to play. Suggest to make reservations if having food as the place can get pretty busy even on weekdays.

Omg what can I say everything was perfect. The quality of the ingredients was second to Nun. Food was amazing place was amazing and the staff were amazing too. Worth a visit.

Lamb was tough and took a lot of chewing and was expensive. Some staff may benefit from customer service training, being polite costs nothing but it can cost you when customers don't return!

Always an enjoyable experience.Good simple food, fine ale and convivial atmosphere.

Haven't been here for ages what a fantastic find. Can't wait to return

Wonderful day celebrating Mum's 80th birthday. Great table and arrangement for our party. Staff were very welcoming and looked after us all really well without rushing us at all. Food was delicious and well presented. Lots of choice on the m enu .... with lovely...

Fabulous place to eat, the steak linguine was amazing. Great service, friendly staff.....highly recommend this place 👌

Started off well with the starter and main , then no one asked us if we wanted to see dessert menu, so when we asked about a dessert , they said the dessert area was now closed. They offered us just a choice of 3 which we said no to. Also looking at carpet it was filthy caked in dirt. The chairs were too wide for the table hence not being able to get on and off the chair easily . Shame really as it was my sister's birthday meal Very disappointed

Excellent place to visit. Always a good selection of high quality, well priced food with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. We've enjoyed many good family meals here.

Lost count of how many times we have had meals here, never been disappointed. Thank you

Todays Sunday Lunch was fantastic . Presentation excellent . Food quality top class with plenty of colour and flavour. Staff were very professional and attentive . Top class!!!
