Greenfield Pub, Ystrad, R-C-T. in Rhondda Cynon Taf

We went on a Saturday night for my husbands 60th surprise party, there was 46 of us altogether! We all ordered different dishes and they came out one after another. The food was pipping hot and delicious. I would recommend The Greenfield for the lovely food, the fab staff and for the fab experience of the night. Thank you all and well done.

Amazing food, and friendly staff. Highly recommend to anyone. Had a large party booking and all food was served at the same time and Weren’t waiting long either!

I ended up going twice in a row and really didn’t even like it the first time around. The food was not freshly cooked which was my biggest complaint. And then either too much heated up killing the remaining vitamins or the meat not hot inside. Very little to none creativity. But, saying all this, I am sure that the neighbors do like it. I remember years earlier sitting outside and the sun being out. That was really nice although it’s situated directly by a busy street.

Amazing time for our mums 92nd birthday , the good was amazing as always , but the staff are second to none , Nothing to much trouble and if was a bit chaotic with how many of us was there Massive thank you we definitely will be back

I’ve been a few times with family and friends, and find the food is always great and the staff are all friendly and helpful. Also great value

Absolutely brilliant! We went here for Sunday lunch and we weren't disappointed at all. All of the staff, from the lady behind the bar to the waitresses, were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. The beef was superb, melt in the mouth tender and so tasty. Roast and new potatoes, cabbage, swede and carrots together with a huge jug of tasty gravy complimented the beef perfectly. Then we were offered dessert, including home made cheesecake, which was fab. My wife can't eat gluten or eggs so is often left without much choice. The waitress suggested a ginger pudding with a vegan ice cream. Sounded great! Then she rushed back to say that it wasn't their usual ginger pudding and she couldn't guarantee it was egg free. Really grateful that she checked but she then said she had some fresh strawberries and wondered whether my wife would like a sundae with the fruit and vegan ice-cream. That was really good and such a kind gesture. Drinks are very reasonably priced and two rounds of drinks (including a double vodka), huge Sunday roast and desserts came to less than £40. We will be back!

Absolutely fantastic staff, brilliant cook/chef. Food was gorgeous and its the best I've had out in a very long time. Wish we had something like this nearer Leicester. Well done 👏

That had to be the best Sunday Lunch I have had out, ever. @thegreenfieldpub . All 3 courses were spot on, full of flavour. Beef was amazingly tender, and the gravy so tasty, and plentiful. The only complaint i would give is that i could have done with a slice of bread to mop up the last of the Stilton Cream Sauce in my starter 😋😁. Such a huge meal yet so reasonably priced. Staff were great too....oh, and the Doom Bar 🤘. Haven't been there since before Covid, but will have to make it more regular 😉

This is a great business. Always warm and welcoming. You can rely on The Greenfield for a lovely meal and great service. I had the scampi and my partner had lovely homemade gammon. Massive portions!!

Me and my mrs made a last minute decision and decided to come here for some nice grub. Got to say the meals were great and the service was fantastic, the waiter with the tattoos was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed, Definitely will be returning soon.

First time visiting this pub. The staff were fantastic, really friendly and chatty. The food was really good! I would highly recommend!

absolutely lovely ❤️ one of the nicest pubs in the Rhondda, the food was lovely, drinks and food excellent and great value for money - the waitresses were fabulously friends especially Carys! will definitely be back!

Food is always lovely here, home cooked and delicious as well as reasonably priced! Always return as you know what you’re getting

First time trying the greenfield lastnight. Food was tasty and affordable, large variation of drinks to choose from. Staff were very helpful especially the lady at front. Think the name was Chloe.

Fab food as always. Staff friendly and helpful First class all round grandson can’t wait to visit again

I visit this pub often, usually around special occasions. We visited for a chrostmas meal and also for a new years eve meal. The food never dissapoints. The portion sizer are big and there are always left overs. The food is tasty and budget friendly....

These people really care Great pub food Excellent service They went out of their way to accommodate us when they were really full Definitely recommended

We had Sunday dinner take away from greenfield and it was stunning 1 of the best we've had thks Emma and staff

I recently met a friend at nearby Penrhys Park where the children played for around two hours. The Park was absolutely beautiful with lovely views down the valley. Whilst there my friend suggested going to the Greenfield Pub in Ystrad for dinner. On arrival we...

booked a table for 2 midday for lunch. Good examples of cleanliness and safe distances through out the premises, Fantastic main meal each followed by two lovely desserts. Staff very pleasant and attentive. We will return but it will have to be after lockdown unfortunately.

Went to the Greenfield for Sunday lunch (first time this year!!). It was fabulous, the food was tasty, plenty of it and cooked to perfection. The staff were friendly and helpful, we will certainly return. Would highly recommend

Glad to be back. Same great food and service as always. Spotlessly clean. The hygiene was 11/10. Felt very safe .

We have always visited the greenfield. It is a lovely and homely place with great food and fair prices. We visited as soon as they opened after covid and it did not disappoint. The food was lovely and I can honestly say they are taking...

terrible place they will threaten you with violence there dont bother going there its just dreadful awful place full of violent people .

There is plenty to choose from on the menu and the portion sizes are good. The food is fresh and tasty. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming.

Lovely friendly pub ..have had better meals there ,we were the last order of the night and it reflected on the meal ,been numerous times before and the food has been top class ,but sadly on this occasion it wasn’t up to their usual standard...

This place is awful don't waste your money going there it's called the graveyard for the right reasons the staff very unfriendly food awful basically a dump .

Attended for lunch,appears to have a bar meals and restaurant we booked a table in bar area The pub was very clean and temperature was comfortable there where a few people having Christmas party however this added to the festivities and tables where prettily set...

Great menu, great prices, generous portions We never tire of eating here. Try the black Welsh beef madras curry with yellow rice. [ i do not like chips] Recomended highly

V nice food in a pleasant atmosphere. When busy there can be a bit of delay in getting food, but it is always hot. The cow pie is lovely!

Visit this restaurant often for lunch or early evening. Basic pub menu which is served with a smile and good value for money.

The waiter was quite rude without any people skills. When our food arrived, the chips were hard, I was unable to give them to my daughter as she would probably cut her mouth on them. The chicken was quite overcooked on one side also making it hard. The young girl who spoke to us upon arrival was very unwelcoming and rude. Yes it was busy but you shouldn’t overbook if you can’t cope. Also employ some staff who understand customer service. I wouldn’t say it’s good value for money, the quality isn’t the best for what you pay for.

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Greenfield. Food was amazing and everyone was 110% satisfied here

Fantastic service, Excellent food can't praise enough very pleasant staff. The menu selection was excellent can't wait to return

We visited here 2 weeks ago, not booked until last minute but they happily accommodated us. A great big smile to welcome us, the food was excellent - basic Sunday lunch, nothing fancy...just what we wanted. The waiting staff were great too, friendly, polite.... a real must go to pub. Well done all of you!

Lovely food but the service was terrible. Two of the waitresses had no idea on how to wait a table..... This will have to be rectified before I will go to this establishment again

Really lovely here. Been many times consistently good. Friendly staff great atmosphere.good choice on menu.

The variety of the lunchtime menu was perfect for us while sitting out in the best beer garden in the Rhondda! All freshly baked and service with a smile!

Add a lovely get together at the greenfield with friends add a lovely welcome and amazing meal deserts are to die for keep up the great standard it's a great place x

What a fab place, always full but as there was only two of us we were lucky to get a table. Quick service, fresh food and delicious. Desserts were amazing, especially the Lemon Cheesecake 😍

Visited the restaurant and pub a few times and had fantastic food. Recently visited for family meal and had a cow pie which is to die for I also love how good the staff look after us thanks again and will be back soon

Had many a meal at this place and cant fault it. Sadly, my 1st Sunday dinner wasn't much to shout about. Not enough gravy to go around. 5 small potatoes between 3 of us. Had to ask and wait for more gravy and cranberry sauce. No Yorkshire, no cauliflower cheese, no parsnips. Just over boiled potatoes, carrots, Swede. Small amount of peas and cabbage. I was really disappointed.

Been here few times now for Sunday lunch always busy never can just walk in booking is a must ! Lovely food and their cow pie and real chips are the best ! No doubt il be back

Fourteen family members visited this venue after booking in advance. Much bigger inside than it looks from the outside. After placing our order all 14 of us were served at the same time with different meals. The food was out of this world for a local venue in the valley. The portions were more than generous.The service was first class and very friendly. Can't wait to go there again soon. Advance booking is a must.

We arrived about 1.30pm on a Sunday and asked if there was a table for two. It was busy but we were quickly seated. A waitress brought clean cutlery to the table and took out order from the Sunday menu. Beef Sunday dinner and lamb shank with a dinner. We did wait a little while for our food, a number of staff asked had we ordered. When the food arrived we had carrots, cabbage, swede, peas and potatoes for two in tourines. The vegetables were hot and tasty and it was plenty for two. The lamb fell of the bone beautifully and the beef was nice. There was plenty of gravy. I could hear other tables asking for more vegetables and gravy which was brought to their table. We paid £21. Although we didn't have time for a dessert there was plenty of tempting choices for another time.

Great service and fantastic food. Made our entire group feel welcome. An absolute pleasure and can't wait to go back again.

My friend and I visited for her birthday meal. My treat. Lovely home made corned beef pie. Didn't have to wait long. We have booked our Christmas get together here too

Lovely place to go for food, i ordered the chicken tikka curry served with homemade chips and rice and was very nice, the service was amazing and friendly. Amazing prices! I will definitely be making a return soon!

Not many local pubs with the same standard of quality food at great prices! So much choice and a lovely welcoming atmosphere!

We go here quite regularly, it's on our doorstep, good food, quick service and excellent value for money, only downside is it can be a bit noisy.

Food served fast in clean surroundings,only place I would eat in the Rhondda,the lay out has changed since the 80's last time was in this pub .

Lovely food with lovely atmosphere. Nice place to take family as it is child friendly. Always pleased with the service & the food

Cannot fault the food here, been coming for years and never had a bad meal. drinks are also high quality.

visited this restaurant back in July with work friends, what amazing food everyone ordered different and it was all delicious. very reasonably priced too. good service and very friendly staff.

Following a friend's recommendation, I went to The Greenfield for a Sunday roast. I got there after the official serving time. The staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating. They took my request, got me a seat and sorted it very quickly. I had a roast beef dinner. It arrived quickly with the vegetables. Great sized portions of everything. It was all cooked exceedingly well and I thought it was delicious. I cleaned my plate in good order enjoying every mouthful. This will not be last visit for certain. I highly recommend The Greenfield. Well done.

Lovely meal Saturday afternoon with a last minute booking. Really lucky to get in. Had light bites meal but was more than enough. Fabulous value for money

14 of us had an evening meal which was thoroughly enjoyed by all delicious and piping hot good service too.

A lovely pub in the heart of the community. Good food and a fab welcome whenever you visit. A good menu with something for all.

Myself and my friend made a visit to the greenfield recently and i must say the food was absolutely perfect! No just the mains but the starters too! The steak was to die for!

This pub has the best food and service in all the valleys, the beer garden decking out front is one of the best around. It's a sun trap out there and when it's sunny you feel like your in Spain. Great place to have a meal and drink ...

I never have a bad meal here, lots of home cooked dishes, lovely staff, beautiful desserts - good all rounder

We visited The Greenfield on Thursday 24th May.

Have been coming here for years, the food is always great and good value for money. Very generous portion sizes. Always a good range of desserts. Sunday lunch is also delicious!

Travelling from Bridgend to brecon we decided to go through the valleys. So glad we did. After looking at places to stop for early evening meal we read reviews on decided to stop here. I rang the day before and was advised to book. We arrived for 5.30. And it was already getting busy. So booking is advisable. It is quite bike inside and staff welcoming and friendly. Food was quick to order and arrived in good time. Wow. The food was tremendous and the portion sizes are some of the biggest I’ve had. Unfortunately not knowing this I ordered extra oration of mushrooms and chip for us. It was a struggle to eat We ordered the salmon on rice with a huge salad. And the 7 oz steak on bed of onions and peppers covered in cheese and peppercorn sauce. The meals were beautiful . We will definitely return. Had a nice conversation with the lady owner. Thank you all.

I've been to this pub and eaten really good meals with excellent service, however, tonight's family meal was pretty poor. After sitting at the table for about 10 mins, we totally ignored by a waitress who walk past us even after we called her. I then had to go to the bar to order our food. Which was two steaks, one we'll done with pepper corn sauce and the other medium with just chips. When the food arrived the plain steak was well done and the other one with pepper corn sauce was medium. They were sent back. The well done steak came back with in minutes with the cheese hard and the medium steak took another 10 minutes to arrive and when it did it to was well done. This is normally a very good place to eat but tonight was extremely poor.

Finally managed to eat there after a few tries, as it’s so popular. The decor is a little tired, but food is more important, of course.

Visited again today to see if service had improved since my last review.

Just back from going here for a meal for my mothers birthday. Place was very busy especially for a monday night and we was lucky to get a table. Great extensive menu all the favourite meals with one or two suprise s and good selection of homemade dishes . Good waitress service and nice atmosphere . Food was great and excellent proper chips , big portion size and very reasonable prices. Will definitely be returning really enjoyed.

Beautiful home cooked food. Will definitely visit again when I next visit the Rhondda- thankyou for the gorgeous food and friendly service.

Always book and always get deserts!

Came here on a recommendation from friends ... Absolutely top class!!!! Just like home from home. Also lucky to get an singer in the restaurant too.

This is still my local even though I left home 40 years ago. I grew up as a drinker here. I have never eaten here though my family say it is very good. My favourite thing about this old pub is the quiz every Sunday night - 40 years and going strong - and the characters who still use the place. If you ate in the area and hungry - call in.

Visited recently after a week of being "snowed in" Just had a main course- the home made cow pie. Lovely food, excellent portions and friendly staff. Haven't been here a lot as this is quite local for us. Well satisfied will use again. Prices reasonable too!

Have been to the Greenfield a few times and it has always been fine. Booked over 2 weeks ago for my mother’s 85th Birthday for 8 of us. When we arrived we were given a table that wasn’t big enough for 8, then moved to a table underneath a television on full blast. I brought a birthday cake with me which was a surprise for my mother. We ordered our food after being told we would have to vacate our table by 6.45. At 6 o’ clock while waiting for our food they brought my mothers cake out and took it to another table where it was left for the other people to blow out the candles. They were a group of young girls - the cake had MAM written on it! I was furious they blamed it on a polish girl in the kitchen! After telling them they had given our cake to the wrong table the waitress asked if we wanted it now! I told her no and that we were still waiting for our food! A lady from behind the bar came over and apologised and said she would refund the cost of the cake sand then said they would move us to yet another table and we could stay until 7.30. What an utter shambles, food eaten and back home by 7.15 and no birthday cake for my mother. So disappointed for her and the way we were treated.

we went to the greenfield for a 40th birthday the food is amazing the quality 10 out of 10 would recommend this place to anyone and the service is good as well as the drinks thanks to all at the Greenfield

Food as always was excellent, unfortunately today’s visit was ruined by indifferent service.

Attended a small wedding here and had the best Sunday lunch out in a very long time, food was hot, meat was delicious and plenty of vegetables and Gravy.. Staff were wonderful and could not do enough for you.

Visited with family fab place all done out great atmosphere meals were delicious very filling booked again in January , worth a visit .

Fabulous long awaited evening was had at this venue by 20 of my closet family who attended. We did Pre-Order...

been here many times over the years, food has always been good, can get very busy on times, very popular, nice new menu last time I visited although service was slow that night

Large group of friends accomodated, need to book ahead, everything right bar my order wanted wedhes instead of chips but no worries. The Burger was huge really nice meal how I found room for the Oreo Cheesecake was a miracle.

Been here a lot for meals lovely food and friendly staff, mushroom melt is best I've tasted and steak is always cooked perfectly and a fab selection of desserts on every visit

Popped in last week for lunch, 3 of us and a baby. Had a change of table to have more room with baby. Lovely food as usual, love the chicken tikka masala and my friends' food looked really nice too,lasagne and chicken. Have already booked a few tables for Christmas time for myself and colleagues for lunch. Great service as usual ladies thank you!

Been here twice before for just a regular Lunch, both times were lovely, no complaints... Sunday Lunch however, (we had heard lots of good stories) we were served as soon as we were seated, luke warm veg served in cold turines, lots of it was wasted, dry slices of Turkey, soggy stuffing and don't get me started with the yorkshire pudding, I couldn't even cut it with a knife let alone eat it with my dentures, why these places can't make their own Yorkshires I don't know, also spotted leftover Yorkshires on plates around the dining room, I will return for a 'normal' meal but never again for Sunday Lunch.

Been to this place a few times,and always a good meal ,along with very quick service.Keep up the good work

Delicious Sunday lunch with my husband today. We had roast beef and turkey. Lovely vegetables, cooked perfectly & homemade gravy. The staff were helpful, friendly and polite. We will definitely be back soon!

My local,, go here regularly and have never been disappointed. stunning food friendly staff 10/10. Indoor and outdoor eating. Shame about the Welsh weather. Only once it's been nice enough for me to eat outside.

Very nice meal. Emma and her staff are friendly. I would advise to book as it's such a popular place you can't always just turn up and expect to be seated. However you won't be disappointed

Being from The Rhondda,driven passed this pub many times but never been in & always wanted to,so glad we did go here.It was a nice afternoon meal & have to say the food was really lovely.My kids 13 & 9(it was for his Birthday)& their Nan really enjoyed the food with the kids having Gammon & Beer Battered Fish & myself & mother having a steak which were all cooked lovely,with the best chips had in a pub for a very long time.Also the Gammon was definitely the best I've tasted also so highly recommend the Gammon.The waitresses & waiters were a real credit to the place,very polite people they are.So glad we went here & will definitely be returning!!I think though it's best to phone ahead to book.Thanks for a lovely meal.

I can honestly say after many many years of coming to this place I have never had a bad meal. I have tried and tested most meals on the menu over these years ranging from the curries, to the steak and fish and every meal has been spot on, I have even requested the recipe for one of the curries as I crave it all the time! It is beyond me that some people have rated it so low. The staff here are amazing, so friendly and welcoming and it's a recurrence on every visit; quite a rarity I have found at other restaurants. Only downfall I can say is that recently I cannot book in as they're always fully booked!! I have to say this as it's important for so many people...I have 3 children and as all parents would understand going to restaurants can be a right pain especially trying to get your kids to sit right for 2 hours, but here they are so understanding and laid back and are fab when it come to children. This place is as child/family friendly as they come. Keep up the fab work! I am now going to book myself a table as all this writing has got me craving that Thai curry

Food was cooked to the perfect temperature and tasted home made- especially liked the individual gravy boats.One small point- we were asked several times if we had ordered- which makes s change from some establishments when you're kept waiting ...The waiting staff were polite and the service was prompt .If you're looking for good home cooked tasty food with good service within a restaurant with a familiar atmosphere- this won't disappoint.Would we come again? YesRecommend to friends/ family ? YesGood value- good Sunday lunch

What can I say friendly faces. Good beer excellant food 1 complaint it was way to much food quality and quantity so rare these days we all enjoyed a lovely night and wasnt rushed out we stayed there all night will certainly be going again

Outstanding, amazing portions and chips are to die for! Always so happy with service and food. Normally good in a group of people and we all get served the same time!

Eaten here for donkeys years and it has got better and better each year, real chips, lots of homemade dishes just like mam used to make, some better (dont tell mam). the burger selection is great for a local pub and i love burgers, tons of curries and the steaks are now all Welsh reared and matured, few teething problems for a few weeks with new menu that reflects in some reviews but when big changes are made you have to be patient till they get everything working spot on...which they have. will be eating here again soon! for those interested I noticed the vegan/ vegetarian range has grown and now some Gluten free options including desserts!

Lush family run pub with a brilliant variety on the menu...so there is something for everyone! Beautiful desserts with even more specials... Always busy as it's a popular venue for any occasions so definitely worth booking in advance...Had the Mexican gourmet burger with sweet potatoe fries... stunning!!Service is quick and easy going...Definitely recommend for any group... xXx

My wife had the mushroom lasagne, I had the chicken burger. We thought the food was extremely good and excellent value for money. The tables were clean we will definitely eat here again. Food was hot, fresh and plentiful.

Kick off with the downside! Parking is an issue as it's on a main road and I did feel the table was a bit small! BUT!The food makes it worthwhile! My steak was perfectly cooked and every dish we had was hot and freshly prepared! Dessert was also really good! Gorra mention our waitress too! She was excellent! Well done guys!

Came here for my mother's 50th Birthday party. Midweek sat down for food a little busy but there was another birthday party in the restaurant. Ordered starters breaded mushrooms and a chicken Naan. Mushroom dish was reasonably priced for what you got. The chicken Naan was a little overpriced for the portion. Very Tasty but small wished there was more. As for main meals we had 2 Mexican burgers 8oz with bacon these were very tasty and highly recommend very well priced. Also had hunters chicken with wedges very nice meal and plenty of if it. We also had Chicken breast with jacket potato this was tasty and plenty of it. Overall a good place for food and the main meals are filling.

We visited as a party of 10, including children. The bar area was very busy, not surprising for a Saturday night. It took a while to get served drinks. We were ordered our meals reasonably quickly and they arrived within 30 minutes, although there was a delay between the first and last meals coming from the kitchen. The portions were a good size and they served 'real chips'. The steak was a little chewy and burger a little over done, but the other meals served were pleasant enough. All the staff were pleasant and asked if we were satisfied with our meals.All in all it was a nice but average meal and the venue was a bit too noisy and crowded but this is to be expected on a Saturday evening.

We want there for food staff very helpfull and service was very fast food is stunning there if you want good food and drink go there
