Hawthorn Inn in Rhondda Cynon Taf

Food is amazing 👏 staff are friendly and helpful.

I called in here for a snack and drink on route on to our destination. we had great food and great service.

Amazing food, great service, one of the best meals i have ever had in a while, Highly recommend ❤️

This place is lovely... Large play area with climbing frame for the kids. Lots of sports memorabilia from local teams adorn the bar. Darts and pool available to play and all the usual sports channels on the multiple screens throughout the pub. Large covered seating area outside and a huge number of dining tables inside. The whole pub top to bottom was spotlessly clean and it's clear to see Jo and Craig take a real pride in the pub they've owned for 20 years Free carpark and on street parking a real Gem down here in Cardiff

Fab food fab service graig and jo are brill

Amazing food & service b back soon xx

Very quick service. Great service on the bar and nice new York chicken with a few pints. Great outside area too if the sun's out. Ordered food for after I finished my meal with my friends to take home for the wife. Lovely and fresh and boiling hot to take when I was ready. Thanks again

If your looking for a brunch this is the place chips or hash browns full English breakfast food is cooked to perfection well worth £6.99

Really good corned beef pie, chips,peas and gravy for lunch Girls serving nice and helpfull too. We will return

Brilliant pub, 1st time myself and friends attended, they were all impressed as well, would all go again, great food and value for money of which we all agreed

Great food friendly service bye staff 👌

Had a meal yesterday four of us every meal was delicious 😋 lasagne to die for we all had different meals and each one was super ,girl were lovely service fab 😊

Stopped off for a meal, ordered drinks at the bar and told to take a seat and someone will come and take your order. It wasn't very busy at all. After being seated for 23min no one had come to take our order. The girl behind the bar asked if we had been seen yet ?I told her no. She apologised and took out a pad and asked what would we like. I told her I wanted to pay for my drinks and wouldn't be ordering any food due to the bad service. Certainly would not recommend or visit here again.

Beautiful food, good staff, relaxed and not rushed

Used this place for big groups, always friendly

We here for a Christmas gathering including three courses, faultless experience (obviously some tweaks available for 5 stars). Nice large place from conservatory, to restaurant, pub to like a sports bar.

Brilliant pub staff are awesome very helpful and the food is amazing

Lovely food but really disappointed about the desserts.....we'd asked the two staff to come back to take our dessert orders. It had been a while so we asked them if we could order to be told the kitchen had closed. The attitude from the staff was very poor, bordering on rude.

The staff are amazeing, the food outstanding, just had a fab time would deffo go again.

Excellent staff, good buffet and building was warm and cosy.

Well this is a really nice pub! Great atmosphere and the food is really nice! Also has a great beer garden. This is just how a pub should be. Nice beer, Good service and friendly locals. Will be back and I’m looking forward to it.

Bar staff are very obliging and always have a tasty meal here

Arranged a funeral wake for today at short notice and the food and service was excellent. Thanks to Vicky who pulled the buffet together and Craig and Jo for arranging while in Tenerife!

Lovely place, great food and friendly staff! You really can’t go wrong here, have visited many times and look forward to next time!

Love the Cornbeef pie, mash, peas and gravy off the special’s board @ £7.50p

Always had excellent service and food

Only popped in for a pint nice clean pub is tidy lovely, outdoor beer garden family definitely will pop in for food soon :)

Always great food and the place nice and clean

Called in to charge our EV first and foremost. Got a great welcome from the pub staff; stayed for a drink; we'll come back for lunch next time. Also, brilliant mordern chargers with lots of space. Got the full 75 kW and charged the car in 50 mins. Win-win.

First time we been to the hawthorns not a great selection on the menu put the food was good will go again

Decent food,long wait at bar as only one staff on.friendly atmosphere.

Fantastic food, fantastic customer service. Fantastic atmosphere. Family and dog friendly, child friendly, welcoming and warm cosy environment.

Four of us Sent for lunch. We had four lovely meals. The Steak sandwich, the steak was beautifully cooked and very tender. The Panko coated mozzarella topped with melted cheese & sweet chilli sauce was delicious. The two breakfast brushes one large one medium were amazing. Well done we will return soon.

Great place, never disappointed.

Had a lovely meal with friends. Staff very knowledgeable concerning gluten free. Food good quality and price. Lovely place.

Great choice of food, we had wraps, very tasty. Really friendly staff, fab atmosphere, really nice place.

Staff were very distracted when meals come handed out fine my scampi was lovely but huge let down was my obviously home made chips were not fresh they were burnt which I hate + had been kept warm so soggy + totally inedible only fit for food recycling bag No one come back to ask if meal ok which usually happens because I would said well no everything is not ok ! Unfortunately due to time restrictions+ lift I had leave without complaining in person but I will not be rushing back for a meal again

Lovely food very reasonable. Great atmosphere. Wicked beer garden. Worth a visit 👍🏻👍🏻

Hadn't ate here for years but I was highly surprised by the excellent food. Everything was delicious and a great portion. Would highly recommend.

Had a warm welcome . lovely atmosphere staff were lovely .Good food . definitely go again ☺️

Had our gender reveal here. Staff were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Very welcoming atmosphere. Food was amazing. All our guests were thrilled with their meals. Will definitely visit again. Highly recommend you won’t be disappointed 🙂

Lovely little place... love that they do proper chips. Staff were friendly and food was served in a good time. Great place if you want to charge your electric car as there are plenty of changers in the carpark too.

The food was really nice the staff was very helpful too love going here

Always nice food.real chip .friendly staff.

Really nice food, clean and lovely beer garden.

We eat here most weekends. Food is such good value and delicious. Home made chips 🍟 There is always service with a smile and a lovely, relaxed atmosphere 👌

Good pub/restaurant, service excellent, food nice, parking available, no charges.

Firstly they were 3 staff down which might explain why nobody came to our table for ages and then why our food took more than 45 mins to arrive. I ordered pie, mash and peas and the pie was the worst I've ever had as the pastry was rock hard. It's obvious that staff were working as best they could but struggling to operate on the night. The final straw for me, was after our main, we ordered apple and raspberry crumble, only to be told the grill was not working and by then we were too fed up to order any more. Our past experiences here are normally good but sadly the food and service was not up to the mark on this occasion. We also noticed that the portion sizes were not as generous as we had previously experienced.

The food was ok ,but my pie looked like it been put in microwave and it exploded and dryed out

Really good value and lovely food, staff were friendly and helpful

Fantastic food, service and great staff. Wheelchair accessible and staff very helpful.

Went to the Hawthorn Inn yesterday for an early lunch with friends. The food was outstanding for a local pub. Delicious, big portions, really tasty & fabulous presentation. Lovely staff, kind & helpful. Will be back soon

Great place ,always fit you in no matter how busy they are, and have a good selection of food and drinks.

Went there for a family wake and it was a lovely place, it has been many years since I'd been there and was pleasantly surprised at how lovely inside it was.

Sunday lunch, Good food and service, friendly staff 4.5

Stopped for a drink with a friend, good service, and appeared friendly. The Sunday dinner looked nice and was clearly popular.

Us ladies meet up every Friday 2 put the world 2 right, and have an enjoyable meal and drink in the process

Always have a nice meal here ,we have moved but still.pop back for food

We had a family birthday party last night . There was 15 of us. Our meals were excellent they all came out hot and excellent standard. Our waitress was very polite and friendly. She was lovely with everyone. Nothing was too much trouble. Lady on the bar was lovely too. We will definitely be back. Thanks for a lovely birthday evening.

Great food manager was really helpful and friendly good Atmosphere

Nice pub. Great parking, good bar service. Didn't eat there so not sure on that side of things

Enjoyed a lovely early evening meal with family. Very tasty corned beef pie, steak ciabatta sandwich, delicious home made chips etc. The staff are a credit to the Hawthorn Inn - Big thank you to MOLLY who helped so much with our baby grandson 👶 She filled the baby's bottle with hot water from the kitchen & also brought an ice bucket in order to cool it 🍼 ELLIE - also was also excellent, thank you CIAN - Fabulous as always ❤️

Food homemade and always lovely. Lady behind the bar is very welcoming and goes over and above to make sure you have everything you need

Pleasant atmosphere, nice food.

A lovely family pub in the heart of Hawthorn. The beer garden has recently had the upgrade of a heated, outdoor, undercover seating area. Great food and great atmosphere. Dog friendly in beer garden. Great priced food and drink.

Amazing food, the best around (Translated by Google) Comida increíble, lo mejor de la zona.

Great food and drink (Translated by Google) Buena comida y bebida

Brusque waitress but efficient enough. Considering the price the food was not bad. Has its own car park - incredibly full considering the number of people inside. Toilets grubby.

Had my uncles wake here last week and to be fair food was absolutely spot on especially the onion bajis. Staff was really friendly to.

My husband and I ate at the Hawthorn Inn earlier today . We ordered fish and chips . It was lovely . Hot too , onion rings were very good , fresh and crispy .home made chips , Quick service . Staff were lovely , very pleasant and very happy to help , well done everyone x

Every time we go it is brilliant. The welcome is warm, the drink is great and the meals are substantial and amazing value for money! Thanks to all the team for another great meal and evening out with friends.

Great buffet provided in a lovely setting(the conservatory) after a family funeral. Good food provided at a reasonable price.

A great pub that serves hearty homemade food, we found this pub a few years ago and regularly meet up with friends there. The Southern fried chicken platter is superb and each meal is served with proper homemade chips, the menu isn't the most extensive but it caters for most people's tastes. The quality of the ingredients for the food is top notch and the food is reasonably priced.

Went for lunch here with a friend today. Staff were friendly and welcoming and the menu was impressive.... One of those where you want to order everything! I had a burger, which was mouthwateringly delicious and came with a heap of chips, which were also very tasty. I couldn't eat all of the chips but I demolished the burger. My friend recommended this place as it does home-cooked (not frozen ping-ping) meals... and in the era of chain pubs, microwave meals and pub closures, I have to say I was impressed. It is easy to get to and has a car park and outdoor area. My only recommendation would be the addition of the tuna melt panini.... But I guess you can't have it all 😂. Would recommend! (Translated by Google) Fui a almorzar aquí con un amigo hoy. El personal era amable y acogedor, y el menú era impresionante.... ¡Uno de esos en los que quieres pedir todo! Tomé una hamburguesa, que estaba deliciosa y venía con un montón de papas fritas, que también estaban muy ricas. No pude comerme todas las papas fritas, pero destruí la hamburguesa. Mi amigo me recomendó este lugar porque hace comidas caseras (no ping-ping congeladas)... y en la era de las cadenas de pubs, las comidas en el microondas y los cierres de pubs, tengo que decir que me impresionó. Es de fácil acceso y dispone de parking y zona exterior. Mi única recomendación sería la adición del panini de atún derretido.... Pero supongo que no puedes tenerlo todo 😂. ¡Recomendaría!

Just returned from our family Christmas get together at the HawThorn, Pontypridd. It ran like clockwork, staff were attentive and friendly despite the restaurant being very busy. The food was hot and plentiful , choice on menu varied and sensibly priced,the atmosphere was festive without being overdone and tacky, all in all, everything was just perfect for our party of five with ages ranging from 14 to 88. Note to self, book early for Christmas 2023 !

Great food at reasonable prices. Friendly staff. (Translated by Google) Buena comida a precios razonables. Personal amigable.

Attend for a work party with 12 of us. Pre ordered all food. All three courses came out piping hot for everyone, with nobody kept waiting. Food was excellent. I loved the chicken strips starter. Others said the mixed grill was amazing and all servings were immense. Highly recommended (Translated by Google) Asista a un grupo de trabajo con 12 de nosotros. Pre ordenó toda la comida. Los tres cursos salieron muy calientes para todos, sin que nadie esperara. La comida fue excelente. Me encantó el entrante de tiras de pollo. Otros dijeron que la parrillada mixta era increíble y que todas las raciones eran inmensas. Muy recomendable

Booked a table of 18 for my mums birthday. The service was perfect, staff were friendly and couldn't do enough for us. Food came out all together and was stunning, I would highly recommend the Sunday roast and will definitely return!!

Family Sunday lunch . Waited ages to be served , gave order waited over 50 minutes for food to arrive , roast pork dinner well what can I say , pork so thin it was nearly transparent, 2 small slices of pork , which were curled up on the edges , veg cold , complained and they took the food away obviously reheated it in the microwave pork then all dried up , by this time appetite had completely gone . Would definitely not recommend this place ,

Booked for a meal for 30 people for my mother-in-law 80th birthday all meals were spot on and reasonably priced well done (Translated by Google) Reservé una comida para 30 personas para el cumpleaños número 80 de mi suegra. Todas las comidas fueron perfectas y bien hechas a un precio razonable.

Went for Sunday dinner. Beef was packet beef and veg like warm at £11.95 each this isn’t what you would expect. wouldn’t go again.

Great food ,fab service (Translated by Google) Buena comida, servicio fabuloso

Long wait time and the prices??? A party of 3 of us plus 1 baby £83!! The standard of food definitely wasn't worth that price for a local pub! Was going to have the halloumi starter but that was £6.50!! The sourdough garlic bread is rock hard and 2 portions were £8.50! I probably wouldn't return because I have ate the same quality food at a much cheap price and wait time was over 40 minutes and we were the only 3 people in the restaurant
