Fullbrook's Bistro in Rhondda Cynon Taf

We visited Fullbrooks this evening. Not our first visit by any means but once again the meals we both had were absolutely first class. It is a friendly family run restaurant - and this really shows. The warm welcome - the attention to detail - the quality of the menu and the meals. First class!! Will be back soon!!

We went as a party of 9 for an 18th birthday celebration. The food was amazing, piping hot and all came out together. Everything from the starters to the desserts was really tasty. It was fully booked the night we went but the service was still attentive and the staff were lovely. They even put banners up which we thought was a really lovely gesture. It’s the first time we’ve visited but we’ll definitely be back!

Food was excellent there. Everyone in my party throughly enjoyed and staff were friendly too. Will definitely be visiting again

Had a wonderful meal tonight at fullbrooks service was great food wonderful highly recommend a hidden gem of a restaurant 😋

We were a family of 4 adults and 1 child and would have no hesitation in recommending this bistro. The food and service was faultless and look forward to returning again soon. Even my husband said it was the best gammon he had ever tasted. 😆 Thank you for such an enjoyable evening.

Stopped here for dinner recently. Lovely little place, friendly attentive staff. Prompt service. Gorgeous food and wine. Lovely ambience. (And clean toilets) We will definitely return

Superb bistro restaurant. Our first time in Pontyclun so we didn't know what to expect. The menu was comprehensive and the food we all chose was excellent with large portions. Served by efficient and friendly, helpful staff. Would certainly recommend and would visit again if we're ever in the area again.

Thank you so much to all the team at Fullbrooks Bistro tonight, excellent food and service for my daughters 18th birthday. They even put banners up for us. Thanks again.

Lovely vibes in this place, with delicious food and charming service from the staff. Enjoyed our time here as a duo. Thanks!

Lovely meal.this evening 😍 why haven't I been before! I'll be back 🥰

Lovely Sunday lunch excellent service amazing desserts will go again

We arrived at 9 pm as we were on our way home having been let down badly by Brothers Pontyclun. We were made to feel very welcome, even though it was late, and were served a delicious meal. The starters were amazing - my husband especially loved the mussels. The steak and the chicken mains were also great ! The service at this restaurant is first class. Both the young waitress and waiter were courteous and the food / drinks arrived promptly. We have eaten here many times as we are local to the village and have always had a lovely time. Thank you Fullbrooks for rescuing my husband’s birthday celebration last night !

Lovely Sunday lunch here with mam and hubby, had soup and beef roast. Highly recommend

A party of 6, food was lovely, hot and served with a smile. Gammon and eggs were the favourite, can highly recommend. We'd finished eating by 9.30 and we're the only ones in the restaurant, we stayed chatting and laughing until gone 11, with no pressure to leave which was lovely. We've been to many places where they shut shop at 10 after the meal, so this was perfect for us. The staff were pleasant, patient and efficient. Will definitely return

Food was ok but pricey for what it was

We spent a great Sunday afternoon at Fullbrook's Bistro for my wife's Birthday celebrations. The service was amazing from the start when booking, through to the experience when there. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it. The staff were very polite and helpful. This is our 4th visit, and will not be our last.

My Mother had her 80th Birthday meal at the restaurant last night and I had to write a review as she had the most incredible time surrounded by all her friends! They have all commented how fabulous the food was and we were able to organise everything with the help of the quite frankly brilliant staff. It’s a little gem of a bistro where the food, drink and welcome are of a very high standard. Thank you so much to the staff who made it such a special night and I would recommend anyone to book a table there for a celebration or just a lovely meal

Had a lovely family meal here recently. There were around 30 of us. Staff were great and the food was very good. Highly recommend

Had a fantastic evening celebrating with friends. As a group of ten, everyone was impressed not only with the quality but how well their food was cooked and presented. I had mussels to start which were cooked to perfection and plump and juicy 😋. The sauce just tasted divine. Its the 3rd time at this little bistro and I found a gem of a place and will be definitely visiting it again.

We had a party of 31 in January.. From the booking to arranging meals and seating us all to giving us a fabulous choice of three courses for all tastes it was brilliant… The staff are fantastic and really welcoming.. The food was brought out to each one of us hot and delicious and all at the same time… We really couldn’t fault anything about our evening and will definitely be going back… Well done Simon and your staff…

Definitely a place to enjoy an evening with friends. Food was excellent, service was excellent and would highly recommend a visit. We will be back.

Delicious food and great options for vegan diners. Highly recommend the cauliflower wings, grilled salmon and salted caramel and chocolate cake but everything else was good too!

I took mum there for her 90th birthday. They put a birthday banner up next to our table and the service, food and ambience was perfect. Will definitely book for the festive menu next month. Thanks for making her birthday special

Visiting area from Devon. Had a lovely meal and service was great too

We popped in on the off chance of a table on a Friday night. They were so accommodating and quickly cleared and prepared a table for us. Food was delicious and the service was great 👍

Both my wife and I knew from the moment we sat down that we were going to have a very pleasant evening as the ambiance was perfect.The menu was good with uncomplicated food and some great old favourites on it.We both thoroughly enjoyed the starters and main coarse and they went out of their way to serve us a bespoke dessert, it was all beautifully cooked and presented and delicious. The service was flawless and given that it was a busy period it was all well coordinated. Thank you all at Fullbrooks and rest assured we will definitely recommend you to friends and family.

Me and the Mrs went last night and the service and food was amazing the steak was one of the best I've ever had they definitely have a top quality chef 👨‍🍳 in the kitchen and the staff are so polite we will 100% be going back.

Been to this restraunt loads over many years. And the food is always delicious, and the service always very good. Highly recommend.

Lovely restaurant, really nice food. The staff & service were excellent. I would definitely recommend a visit here. The restaurant was also fully booked with a nice atmosphere.

Both currys were powdery and grainy in texture and tasted like they were made from a packet mix. We visited on a Sunday, and the vegetable curry looked like it just been made using the veg from the standard Sunday roast dinner ie. Broccoli, batons of carrots, peas, and potatoes halved in their skins. The 'triffle' looked delicious but again tasted as if it had been spooned out of tins and jars; the custard was exactly like tinned, ready-made custard. The 2 meals, 2 desserts and 2 soft drinks came to a few pence under £50. Definitely wasn't value for money and we won't be going back. On the plus side, the restaurant was spotlessly clean, the mango chutney was delicious, and the staff were super-friendly and very polite.

Lovely food and friendly service as always. Thank you.

Been 3 times now and always lovely meals. Great choice. Great staff. Very friendly, homely atmosphere

Nice little village bistro serving well cooked and delicious food. An extensive vegan and vegetarian menu caters for all tastes! Only minor complaint - needs a bit of soft furnishings to soak up the sound as it can be quite loud once everyone starts getting lubricated!

Birthday celebrations thank you so much ,food was delicious and thank you for the extra touches 😊

Booked for Mother’s Day only to be told they had not reserved a table for us Absolutely fuming Only time I managed to get our daughters to come also . Wife’s had a tough year so far . Had to go home and we all had to cook Sunday lunch 😡 😡😡😡😡

Good quality food went as a group of four only one disappointment the Gammon dish wasnt of the usual standard although not complained about as it was a rare experience

Excellent Sunday lunch. Lovely atmosphere and great service.

8 of us went for a birthday lunch today. We all agreed the food was delicious and cooked to perfection. I look forward to our next visit.

Had a beautiful meal at Fullbrookes! Fresh ingredients, cooked to perfection. Great service and lovely atmosphere.

Lovely 2 course traditional Sunday lunch, friendly staff and great service, will definitely return ☺️

Tastless and tough meat Roasted potatoes wer just threatened with a flame Puddings wer excellent

Excellent service food was cooked perfectly, atmosphere was warm and welcoming would recommend to others and will definitely be returning

Food outstanding but could not buy a glass of Chardonnay, only sold by the bottle.

Went for a meal with some if my family here in Wales. Good food, prices and service. Very pleased.

We had an early lunch here. The food was excellent and well presented. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended and pre booking a table will avoid disappointment

Brilliant staff,food and a very friendly place

Food was fantastic! Best lasagne I've ever had

Unpretentious bistro. Excellent lamb chops, plenty of it and wonderful service. What more needs to be said. Oh, and good to see some good draft local beers.

Stopped for lunch. Amazed by the menu - light bites, full menu, vegan menu, children's menu. Our 4 meals were all cooked perfectly and well presented. Staff were attentive and obliging. Prices were good for the quality of food. Would unhesitatingly recommend.

All the food was delicious (the battered fish, lasagna, grilled fish) but the stand out definitely for me was the mutton!!

We were a party of 18 booked for lunch. Great welcome, fabulous food and all served at the same time. Excellent.

Celebrated my 50th birthday with my family in Fullbrookes. Food was outstanding. Best meal out I've had in a long time. Staff were so helpful. Would highly recommend.

We were lucky to get a table when we popped in without booking on a Sunday. Excellent service, food was fantastic with lots of options. We will definitely be back.

Gorgeous meal, superb service, would thoroughly recommend

What a place exceptional food great service good staff friendly

Excellent food and service. Been 3-4 times now, consistently good. Thank you.

We were a party of 8 celebrating 2 birthdays. Would highly recommend this bistro. Fab atmosphere, lovely friendly staff and the food was absolutely delicious! We cleared our plates! We’ll be back.

Lovely friendly restaurant with good food and service. Well priced. Great for family meals.

Lovely food, lovely venue and lovely staff. Highly recommended.

Had my sons 21st birthday here and it was absolutely fantastic 👏 the food was delicious and the staff are amazing.. its my new favourite place 😍

Excellent small restaurant on the main Street in Pontyclun. A good range of food on the menu. Very pleasant evening on my youngest daughter's birthday. Ideal for family get together.

Excellent service and food, Sunday lunch was fantastic 😋

Lovely place, great service. Everyone enjoyed the food, I had steak, nice, but not a £18.50 steak.....

Lovely atmosphere, in a quiet town, easy place to enjoy a meal with delicious food and friendly staff. Had a gorgeous Sunday dinner and look forward to trying more of the menu

In the words of the thunderbird FAB.

Fantastic venue with superb food.

Cannot recommend this place enough. Simply delicious food, the starters were amazing and then the steak melted in your mouth. Service with a smile. Fantastic value for money. We had an amazing time. Thank you to Simon and family. We will be back! Truly 5 star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ oh and please dine here if you’re staying at the Lanelay Hotel and Spa! It’s 5 mins down the road 👍🤗

Good menu for all types, veggies etc. Good service and well cooked and presented meals. Excellent value for money but only a small restaurant so book a table rather than just turn up.

Amazing service, cant do enough for you. Wonderful food. Immaculate. Definitely be back again

Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere, pleasant staff. A very enjoyable experience, fair prices I would definitely say you need to book to avoid as its a small venue.

The nicest food iv had in a long time, its only a small place ,so best to book. There was 8 of us but didn't wait long . I would recommend it .

Stunning three course meal. Quick service in beautiful surroundings. All three courses were delicious. Nice intimate venue.

Lovely bistro, delicious food and friendly service. Reasonably priced food and drink.

Never had a bad meal great food and service 👍

Great food excellent value nice surroundings

Lovely family meal at the Fullbrook Bistro, delicious food and the service couldn’t have been more attentive, will definitely visit again.

I have eaten here 3 times over the space of 6weeks, with family and friends. The food, welcome, presentation and ambience has been consistently great! Lovely menu, something for everyone including vegans and vegetarians. Drinks are not as expensive as other restaurants, so it’s a win:win. The staff are very friendly and are a credit to Simon. Very COVID compliant too! Thanks everyone. See you very soon.

We visited the bistro as a last minute booking. The only table available on a Friday night was outside which wasn’t a problem as the weather was fine.We were greeted by a very friendly waitress who sat us down and took our drinks order. Despite being busy they were delivered promptly. I ordered the beef burger and my husband ordered the gammon with sauté potatoes. We didn’t wait long for the food to arrive. It was delicious and very nicely presented. The portions were large. The prices were very reasonable. It was lovely to receive service with a smile. If we were ever visiting the area again we would certainly book to eat there again.

We have family in Pontyclun and pass through the town several times per week. In fact, we are about to move there. I have always been curious about Fullbrook's but never eaten there, until two weeks ago that is. Wow, why did I leave it so long? The atmosphere, food and service is first class. Nothing pretentious, just excellent cooking obviously using top quality ingredients. I had a sirloin steak that was cooked exactly to my liking (medium-rare) and was as soft as a fillet steak. At £17.95 it was excellent value compared to another I had the week before in Penarth, at £23.95. This restaurant is a keeper and it will be our first port of call to celebrate our new house after we move into the area next Monday.

Table for 6 just after Re-opening from lockdown. Staff were fabulous, nothing to much, the food was varied and very good. We were the last left in the restaurant snd at no time were we hurried. Would happily recommend this restaurant.

Food was excellent. Fresh and served promptly. The service was outstanding, very friendly and welcoming. No complaints. Best in the area!

Lovely food,great service,fab value for money. Definitely going back soon.

Wonderful service wonderful food definitely would go back again.🙂🙂

Brilliant service from start to finish. Food was outstanding, the staff were very friendly and happy, lovely relaxed atmosphere and will be returning.

Fabulous food and service as always.

Had a lovely meal , staff where very friendly.

Had Barbados chicken for the first time today, and it was out of this world. I have never had a bad meal from there, and have say it’s my favourite restaurant ever. Food ***** Staff ***** establishment *****

Literally the BEST restaurant around! The food is simply outstanding! Especially the signature dish of “Fullbrooks chicken”The staff are extremely welcoming, and friendly. It was the first time today we took our 2 year old, and there was no issues with her being their either. She loved her sausage and chips! The sticky toffee pudding was delicious! Highly recommend for couples and families!

Lovely little intimate establishment... Very friendly, professional service and excellent food. Will be visiting again

A small restaurant that serves decent food at a reasonable price. Due to the present restrictions a limited menu was on offer and atmosphere was a bit subdued but service was of a high standard. We have dined here on a few occasions and not been disappointed.

Always welcoming with good food.

Beautiful home cooked fresh food. This isn’t the 1st time I’ve eaten at this bistro & I must recommend to anyone. Reasonable prices, the food is always fresh & great service.

Great food, great service. Steak was fantastic. Garlic prawns were amazing. Lovely waitress who was happy to answer our questions. Looking forward to our next meal here.

visited the restaurant last night.the usual service was fantastic and the food was even better.all 3 courses where cooked to perfection and piping hot and the steak was one off the best ive had.looking forward to Sunday lunch next week.

from the time we walked through the door to the end of our meal we felt appreciated and that we where like a family member, all the staff where very friendly and appreciated us being there, the service and the quality of the food was Excellent, it was a belated Anniversary meal with my wife, we could have not found better. 5Stars to you all well done the Fullbrook Family.
