Farmers Arms in Caerphilly

My wife and I enjoyed Sunday lunch here recently and it was the best 'pub' Sunday lunch we have had. Staff were friendly and attentive. Food was excellent, good portions and good value. I also managed a dessert which was also tasty and well presented. We are now looking for an excuse to be in the area on a Sunday again.

Came here for food in the week and booked back in straight away for Sunday dinner nicest food we’ve had in a long long time absolutely beautiful we had mixed grills and the peppercorn sauce was fantastic can’t moan at a single thing staff friendly really cost our new favourite place to go

Went to the farmers arms under recondition of a friend. It’s a little out of the way for us. The pub was crowded and all seats full. They suggested having a beer in the bar as they were running late. It took an hour for them to sit us at our table but the food was worth the wait. One of the best Sunday lunches we’ve had in a while. Shame about the wait as the food was great .

Excellent food, lovely atmosphere, loved the country music on the radio and chatting to the super friendly staff.

We ordered Garlic chicken and some soup and starters, food was excellent.

Me and my partner went here tonight for food and it was amazing we'll worth a visit

Gareth and Sarah provided an excellent meal. Took a young ladies advise about having Chicken Tikka Naan and it beat me. The wife enjoyed her meal Quorn Tikka too. Well done.

Cannot stress enough how amazing this hidden gem is. We stumbled upon it randomly whilst in the area and had probably the best food I ever had in the UK. It was so good we went there twice during our stay in South Wales. The service was amazing both times - attentive and very friendly staff, the food presented beautifully, generous portions and just bursting in flavours. I could not recommend this place enough and would go out of my way to go there again.

Went there for dinner twice while on holiday in the area and was blown away by their food and their staff, great service and the pub felt lively and fun! P.s that chicken tikka is phenomenal

We stopped here to have Sunday roast and it was one of my better decisions in recent memory. The beef roast was excellent, service kind and pleasant, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended!

We came with five people. The food was absolutely exceptional, each dish bursting with flavor and served very quick. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the staff. Despite being understaffed, every member of the team was incredibly friendly and attentive. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable dining experience, and their warm hospitality did not go unnoticed. It’s rare to find such a perfect combination of good food and genuinely caring service.

Stunning food and service.The lady behind the bar was amazing 👏So busy bless her.

Gorgeous small pub. Great food, really friendly staff. Booking recommended

Wonderful Sunday lunch. All staff are helpful, friendly and professional. They can't do enough to ensure that everyone has a great experience. The lunch was the best I've had in a very,very long time. Everything was spot on and so tasty. The beef was exceptional. There was seven of us and everyone agreed it was superb. Highly recommended. Thank you to all at the Farmers Arms.

great night out. Didn't have food but heard its the best around. Had so much fun

The food was delicious and the servers are so lovely. We found this place by chance while waiting for our parents to help us out with a motorcycle and the lovely ladies have been serving us foods and drinks. We tried the hunters chicken burger and their potatoes are to die for. Highly reccomend if you want some good food with a date or friends.

The place is very lovely and the staff working here is the most kind and welcoming, we had a very lovely experience. The food is delicious, we tried the hunters chicken sandwich and it was to die for. Highly reccomend!!

Incredible food and exceptional service, we came here after a long bike ride and was pleasantly surprised with the portion size, vegan options and friendly service

Beautiful place with delicious food, Gareth tool great care of us and made sure we left very happy 😊 I would certainly come back and highly recommend. 10/10

Dined at The Farmers Arms on Saturday 18th and was impressed with the service and quality of food. Myself and my partner thoroughly enjoyed our dinner, I had the Chicken Breast in creamy garlic sauce and my partner the burger. Absolutely delicious food, brilliant service and if we're ever in the area again we will definitely be paying a visit!

Was staying locally last minute and booked Farmers Arms for a mid evening dinner. Arrived late and had a little trepidation about the vicinity. Parked on the road easily however. Greeted warmly by staff and went to restaurant area of which there are two, and chose a table. Menus are on their website, not printed. Love this!! Plenty of choice on draught and even some cocktails!! Garlic mushrooms were delicious, burger was one of the best I’ve ever eaten and I’ve had a quite a few!! Apparently the pies are the best!! Sadly no room for dessert. This place is a hidden gem, don’t judge a book by its cover :0)

Just had 1of the best steaks of my life here! First time to visit,we will definitely visit again.lovely friendly and welcoming atmosphere. highly recommend the garlic mushroom ciabata starter. they went above and beyond to adapt the menu for my little boy who is Picky! He loved his food,as did we. Kudos to the chef,and all the staff .x

Booked online then an hour later was called to say they are full. Would be so bad if he wasn’t so rude and hung up. Glad we never went now rather spend my money else where.

What a lovely pub! Had a warm welcome from the landlord & excellent service from the lovely Elaine & staff. The food was hot & tasty. Some of us had the huge mixed grill and others had the Wednesday Special, Farmers Burger, chips, cole slaw & a bottle of Bud for £15! ⭐️ Can't wait to try the Sunday Lunch! Thank you all!! We'll be back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had a fab evening with friends. Lovely food by Sarah and Simon. Enjiyed the English banter with rugby too. Haven't seen them for years. Will deffo be coming back very soon xx

Absolutely amazing food and service definitely go back and si welcomed

Just got back from a great Sunday roast. Food was fantastic all seven of us agreed. Staff were friendly and efficient. Would recommend to anyone. Thank you Farmers Arms team.

We are currently visiting Wales for a midweek break. While looking on Google for somewhere to have a meal for my birthday, I came across The Farmers Arms and was immediately impressed by the reviews and the menu. This place is a little gem with lovely staff/owners and fantastic food. We will definitely return on our next trip to Wales!

Came as a party of 19, very good food, great atmosphere, great hosts and the beef and gravy are to die for! Lovely old fashioned pub with a upmarket trendy menu. Fairplay to you all. 19 People and not one thing wrong at all was amazing. Not one bad thing to say about the meal.

Fabulous hospitality, amazing food !! Would highly recommend a visit 👌❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Lovely fresh food, good portions, great price, friendly staff and first class service. Can't fault it. Catered for gluten free. Would happily recommend. Thank you!

We visited here after reading the reviews online and we can't praise the place enough! Food.... Outstanding! All made fresh to order, I had the festive burger and my husband had the open pie, which he said was the best pie he had ever had! His dessert was a Xmas pudding sundae and OMG what a dessert it was. Elaine waited on us and she was so attentive and lovely, we also chatted to the owners and they both made us feel so welcome.... Hats off to the chef that's all I can say. We will be back soon to try the Sunday Roast with family in tow! Keep it up guys.... AMAZING!!!

Food and service was fabulous. This was the first visit for us as a family and we will definitely be returning, the steak and ale pie was probably the best I have had at a restaurant.

Absolutely stunning food! Beautifully presented!lovely welcoming atmosphere! Will go above and beyond for you!

Sunday lunch was stunning. Presented lovely with plenty of vegetables. Gravy was very tasty. Definitely will be returning ☺️

Wow wow.. we stumbled upon this diamond in the rough whilst on our way back from a hike up Pen y fam. We were starving with no reservation, walked in hoping they could serve us on a Saturday night. As i walked in, the first thing i noticed was the largest most awesome plate of dirty fries i have ever seen and instantly thought.. jesus.. what is this place?! The bar manager came over to us and realised we were weary travellers needing some good cold beer and lots of food.. after moving things around for a minute they managed to fit us in and I'm so thankful for that. The food was super delicious, home cooked and big portions. The atmosphere was so friendly, welcoming, and warm. The service was absolutely spot on, couldnt have asked for a better experience. I hope to be back one day for the live music and Kareoke night, by all accounts its not to be missed!

Amazing food both mid week but especially the Sunday lunch Yum portions are just perfect, people are so friendly and helpful

Absolutely amazing. One of the best places we have eaten for ages. Will definitely be returning very soon

Sunday lunch excellent beef roast dinner.Always quality 👌

Amazing food , served by lovely people with friendly faces , the service was great and most of all they make amazing cocktails 😍

First time visit but won't be the last. Staff warm and friendly. Food was amazing. Chips out of this world best I've ever tasted. And even desserts were filling. Not an icecream lover but the sundaes were like the main course very filling. Massive thanks to all at the Farmers Arms for a vey pleasant evening

The reviews had our hopes high for this pub, when we finally got a night off together I booked a table but to be honest it was a bit of a let down. I'm a techy person but I hated the fact there were no menus, we were expected to look on the website, the menu is small and even then the dishes we picked were unavailable 🫠 The wait for food was excessive (although we were forewarned) for the fact there were only a handful of tables. The two people working were rushed off their feet, so we ordered drinks at the bar rather than at the table. I think the Sunday roast offering might be a bit more successful but overall it wasn't quite what we expected after reading the reviews.

On a long drive home from Swansea and decided to take a short detour to visit this pub and wow! We were so happy to have found it thanks to the reviews. Sunday roast was just so tasty- meat was succulent, loads of veg and 3 different types of potatoes along with a Yorkshire pudding and stuffing with extra gravy! They go all out here. Hands down the best pub roast and the house wine was a perfect match for it too! Highly recommend to all travellers 🧳 friendliest staff too - thanks for a great visit!

We went here on a bit of a whim as we like to try different places to eat and I must say this places didn’t disappoint. Top quality food cooked fresh to order, piping hot and delicious. We’ll definitely be returning, what a little gem and local as well. Bravo Farmers Arms 👏👏👏

The service was excellent and staff very friendly and helpful food was lovely recommend it to everyone

Lovely home cooked Sunday lunch very friendly staff

Great food, service second to none from the friendly staff and cant fault anywhere that has RCHP as the background music!

It was a long drive from Essex but definitely worth the drive. Ihad the farmers burger 🍔 and I couldn't ask for anything more I would all ways recommend here. AMAZING.

Had Sarah's famous steak and ale pie and it was wonderful,sirloin steak also cooked to perfection,lovely friendly staff who couldn't do enough for us,would highly recommend and will definitely be back 👌

Absolutely amazing food me and partner camt wait to return

An absolutely wonderful night. 4 different meals, all were superb, fantastic Chef who interacted with us after our meals (not the usual"hi everything ok" ? "Yes great " bye ) Chef was really at home mixing with all the client's. This was our first visit but 💯% not our last. Looking forward to our next visit.

Had Sarahs steak pie, it was fabulous , very tasty and very filling , thank you chef Rashid , see you again soon

What a little gem of a pub found in Rhymney.Had a lovely evening overall, food was great and staff very helpful. Even had live singers there when we went. We all opted for the giant naan bread, which lived up to its name, it was giant! None of us managed to totally finish it all, but we were offered a box if we wanted to take it home in. Even know I didnt manage to finish my mains, I still managed to fit in the Apple pie with caramel sauce, but it was worth it! Amazing, would go here again to meet up with friends!

This is a gorgeous pub with an excellent welcome, that started and ended with excellent service. I ordered an excellent home made pie, which I definitely recommend. Starters looked good, but didn’t have one knowing the pie was going to be a challenge on its own to eat. Unfortunately the dessert choice was extremely poor.. No coffee or tea available after the meal which was a shame. I would definitely go back but hopefully this review may encourage the options above to be put in place because I would definitely like my visit to be a regular one, especially with the cocktails they have on tap there.. maybe wise why they don’t serve the coffee.. Please take a little cash for a tip for them because they don’t add it on to the final bill if paying by card.. They so deserve a tip for trying to be so helpful. Hopefully this review will encourage you to try it out too.. definitely put it on your list of pubs to try…

We are regular visitors to the Farmers Arms. Plentiful menu that is updated regularly. Food is always prepared to a very high standard. Staff are attentive and personable. We really enjoy eating here. Our personal favourite dish is the chicken tikka naan.

Me, my partner and 6 week old baby visited The Farmers Arms for food and it was absolutely beautiful! The restaurant had a lovely, warm and cosy atmosphere. The lady who served us (didn’t take a name) was so friendly and welcoming. The food was unreal - definitely would recommend the naan bread! My partner had the mixed grill and said it was amazing. We will definitely be visiting again and will recommend to friends and family :)

Fantastic Sunday lunch - beef and pork - within our group. Excellent quality and service - lovely desserts to follow - would highly recommend!

Absolute amazing food. Everything was gorgeous and presented so well. From the time we got there the service was friendly and fab. Definitely be visiting again our new favourite place. Highly recommend 10/10

Went for food here tonight with my wife and the food was incredible - blue cheese burger sensational! My wife had the naan bread with curry and she loved it (although couldn’t finish it! It’s massive!). Food was served quickly and the staff were so friendly and always on hand. Clive working there was sensational! Without a doubt we’ll be back again!

What a lovely homely pub/restaurant, such a friendly family run place with excellent service and very good and well presented food , portions are very good and it's definitely value for money, we felt very welcomed and had a lovely evening, I will definitely be eating there again and I would recommend this place to anyone, thanks to all the staff and Simon for making our evening so pleasant, there's not many places like this left so keep up the good work.

Our Sunday lunch today was stunning, issues with the tables to start but that was our own fault for booking separately. Staff sorted it and couldn’t do enough for us! Will definitely be going back.. 👌🏻

Absolutely fantastic. Honestly, I can’t praise the staff, service and food enough… The food was absolutely beautiful, we had 3 courses each and thoroughly enjoyed each bit, drinks were great. But to top it off the staff were amazing, all our waiters were kind, welcoming and really friendly, Sarah in particularly (the chef) was an absolute delight, she went round at the end of service to talk with customers which was something we thought was absolutely lovely. She’s an incredible chef and a truly lovely woman. We accidentally found this place and we cannot wait to come back again already, thank you ❤️

Lekker authentiek. Erg lekker eten en goede service. Een aanrader alsnog je in de buurt bent.

Stunning food, steak and ale pie was spot on, very helpful and friendly staff, cant wait to try the Sunday dinner next:)

Sunday lunch absolutely brilliant, the beef was epic. Can't praise enough.

Had Sunday lunch today could not praise this place enough. The beef was so tasty and melt in the mouth The whole lunch was brilliant. Staff very attentive. The Gin and berry cheesecake was so tasty. My partner had lamb shank it was also melt the mouth. Definitely will be returning again. Such a gem of a find. The helpings were very large.

Excellent. Had festive beef and turkey roast dinners with festive desserts Excellent food and service really enjoyable in a nice, festive early evening atmosphere. Friendly and welcoming staff Will definitely return. .

What a wonderful experience we all had, from the moment we walked in to the time we left. All the staff were amazingly friendly and couldn’t do enough for you and made us feel so welcome. As for the food… oh my goodness. What a treat! If you like a proper homemade pub meal were you can taste the quality of the food, here’s your place. They only use black Angus beef and the finest ingredients to make their delicious meals. We all ordered different dishes and they were all absolutely gorgeous, came out piping hot and all together… service was second to none. I don’t usually recommend food places but I feel this one deserves recognition! Keep up the good work guys! We will see you very soon !!

Myself and my family (8 of us) had a meal at the farmers Arms last night and wow! where do I start? the food was out of this world the beef was cooked to perfection... so tender! The steak was also cooked to perfection, we was lucky enough to meet the cook herself who was an absolute diamond and the owners and bar staff could not do enough for us... the most friendliest, funniest people and full of smiles and laughter! What a great night had by us all. Thank you so much we will definately be back xx

We had a Beef Christmas Dinner last night, it was a plateful of delicious food, excellent value for the high end quality it was, Big portion of beef on the plate,cooked by someone who definitely knows the job. Regards Dai Groesfaen Farm

Superb food and a very warm and friendly welcome from Simon and Sarah at the Farmers Arms. A gem of a foodie pub. Both the Roast beef and the steak pie were delicious. We look forward to returning in the new year!

Absolutely amazing, me and the girlfriend are up for a few days and heard about the pub. Wow we wasn’t disappointed in this. Had the Christmas menu which was the burger and the roast beef, both the best food we’ve had in a very long time!! and texture of the beef was just simple exquisiteThe desert was also amazing. Chocolate fudge cake with cream!The staff were amazing and very friendly, couldn’t knock for anything and the price was just right for the food everything was the right temperatureWill definitely be back when we are next up in wales Thank you from josh and Jess

Me, my dad, partner and brother went for a meal here at the end of Nov and was served the December menu - we had garlic mushrooms to start which were delicious! And a prawn cocktail to start again nothing but compliments. Portion sizes are so good and great value for money! I had the turkey dinner and it was lovely, plenty of veg and gravy provided and service couldn’t have been better! The same said for the beef dinner. My partner had the chicken tikka naan bread and this came out and was huge! Would be enough to feed 2 people. My brother who is a fussy eater also finished his sausage and chips and said it was the best he had ever ate! Definitely a compliment they don’t get off him much. Can’t wait to visit again as food was delicious and service was great and prompt

We have had lunch here today and it was outstanding. The meat was falling apart and the vegetables cooked really well. What made it even better was we spent time with the chef and her husband who were lovely - we will be back.

Absolute exceptional food and service I couldn’t recommend this place enough , nothing was to much of an effort reasonable priced and the food omg best I’ve had in a very long time , 5 stars from me guys and see you soon 🤙🏻

The food speaks for itself always amazing and thanks to Lewis and all the staff for the amazing service I can’t wait for my next visit

First time today we was second sitting , a gang of 8 Sunday lunch, all clean plates and the dinner was not what I was expecting, the reviews we seen said it was good, my experience and all of us agreed this was the best high end Sunday lunch in our area, a team that wants to be above average, and they easily achieved that. Regards Dai Groesfaen Farm

Found the pub online while looking for somewhere for Sunday lunch, & booked it.We ate in the pub part, which was fine. as they were busy, and we didn't book until the Friday before.Service very friendly and professional and the food was lovely. 3 beef dinners (beef was tender and delicious), 1 nut roast dinner and 1 child's chicken dinner (generous portion size). All accompaniments (roasties, swede, parsnips, carrots, cabbage, peas, Yorkshire pud, extra gravy & veg gravy) were cooked nicely as were the 2 extra portions of broccoli/cauliflower cheese to share.Desserts - lemon/raspberry possets and fudge cake & ice-cream, looked and tasted great.Food and soft drink prices reasonable £10 for mains, (£6 for child's), £5 for desserts, lovely coffees £2.25, tea £1.80, pints of squash 80p.We will visit again.

Friendly helpful staff,good meal.

Absolutely brilliant service, quick and fairly priced 👍

Visited The Farmers Arms Rhymney for my birthday meal on 5th November. Excellent service from Gareth, friendly atmosphere and the food was amazing. Chicken in the garlic and mushroom sauce was to die for, chicken was perfectly cooked and the sauce home made. Steak along with the home made peppercorn sauce was the best my partner had tasted, perfectly cooked and big portions too. Bonus was the cocktails. Will definitely be going back.

Great food great atmosphere good portions and amazing staff warm and welcoming !

Booked for 4 people whilst in the area and we couldn't have got the choice more right. The staff were very welcoming and appeared genuinely pleased to see us. The young waiter was a breath of fresh air and the landlord witty and extremely pleasant. The meal was 1st class-we really couldn't find fault with anything-price, meal, service and atmosphere. We will be back in the area next June and will definitely book again. Really wish we had something like this around where I live!

Great Sunday dinner staff were brilliant and the building is decorated well

We visited today for a family sunday dinner and what a lovely dinner it was! The food was so fresh and the Portion sizes were huge and really tasty. It has to be one of the nicest Sunday dinners I’ve ever had. Great for kids, and the staff are very welcoming and friendly and quick service too. Thankyou!

Had an excellent meal of starters and mains. Would definitely recommend. Food came out hot and tasted splendid. 10/10.

Me my husband and 3 children went to the farmers arms. We have a warm and friendly welcome. Seated at our table. The waiter was prompt with our order of drinks. The menu has a little selection but what we had was amazing. My husband had the tikka I had Hunters chicken and the children had Gordon's. The meals were huge and very tasty.Definitely a hidden gem in the Welsh Valley. Even the playlist was brilliant.

Staff are very friendly and welcoming, had a great chat with the waiter and owner. Made us feel like we were locals. The meals were great. The chicken wings starter was superb.

Went here with my wife and two children. The place in nice and clean and the food (especially the Mac Burger) was really good. The staff were really really lovely. I’ll definitely go back to try the Nann which I only saw when I was leaving.

Lovely warm atmosphere, staff were welcoming and friendly. Food was absolutely beautiful... compliments to the chef !!! Definitely will be returning ! Thank you 😊

My family, my friends and I recently had Sunday lunch @ the Farmers Arms for the first time. As regulars who have Sunday roasts at various venues, I must say you won’t get a better lunch when combining portion, quality and price. I had the beef, for me it was cooked perfectly, tasted delicious and the portion size was spot on. Speaking to the rest of my party afterwards, they echoed the exact same words.The atmosphere was great, all staff and regulars alike were extremely welcoming and friendly. All requests were never too much, with a minimal wait. Four adults, three children, two courses and two rounds of drinks, less than £100…. And they took American Express! Impressive….. thanks for a great Sunday lunch and a great time!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Top place. There for Mam's 90th. Food and service superb. We couldn't have been treated more hospitably. Thank you

lovely and friendly service food was absolutely fantastic 👌 would definitely recommend it

Visited here with a few friends on a Thursday evening and after reading some reviews and seeing some pictures decided to go for the burger it was ok-ish but I’ve definitely had better. The patties were slightly under seasoned needed a bit more salt & pepper and because of that the main thing you could taste was cheese. So after reading past reviews I was a little disappointed maybe the chef was having a bad day. Drinks on draught though were spot on and so was the entertainment.

Had a birthday lunch here today with my friend and I must be honest it is the best roast lunch I have ever had in my life, and that's 61 years! The chicken fell apart as I was cutting it and I had a smidge of my friends beef to taste and it was 'melt in the mouth' beef, I highly recommend this restaurant/ pub to everyone, beautiful food and great friendly pub staff.

First time in this pub last night for open mic night. Was expecting normal pub grub and a nice place, leave around 10pm. The food was absolutely out of this world! The best I’ve had in a very long time. The staff and owners were even better. Super friendly, very accommodating, and definitely know how to have a good time! We ended up still not wanting to leave at almost midnight! Plus the prices are so cheap. We can’t wait to go back here again, especially to try the Sunday dinners. Can’t recommend this place enough.

Second time visit to this place for the open mic nights. Food is stunning and reasonably priced, staff very helpful, landlord likes his singing!! Only downside is the choice of beers.

Wonderful food and excellent friendly service .
