King Brychan in Merthyr Tydfil

Good value for money and helpful staff.

Went for the carvery, and from start to finish the whole experience was wonderful. Staff were efficient, polite and incredibly helpful and the service was very prompt (even though it was clearly very busy) food was delicious and had a very pleasant visit there. Have decided to make at a more regular stop as a result.

Couldn't ask for better. Turned up without a booking but was found a table despite being busy. Customer service was impeccable and Richard was very welcoming and helpful, carvery was fantastic and the children's meals were fair for value. All said and Done very pleased with food and service.

Person to greet us was Amanda. Lovely lady nothing to much trouble. Lovely meal will absolutely visit again. Thank you.

Lovely restaurant. Have been before when it was a different name and thought we would try again as we were in the area. Had lovely chap called Richard serve us and a generally fab dinner.

We walked into the restaurant, there was this man who showed us to our table, he looked liked he was going to a guns n roses concert? So I gather he was the manager or supervisor? Very scruffy looking for a manager i would say? Apart from that the food was nice?

Richard and Meg the dream team food and service amazing thank you!

So helpful, great service 👏 thanks

I am coeliac and there is a lot of choice for me and the food is great.

The food in the main was lovely, I really enjoyed the Thai red curry. However, the mixed grill was not as good as expected. The steak was rubbery and the gammon was tough. I tried to order at the table but it wouldnt allow me to input the discount code. Despite this, the staff were very pleasant and helpfu and the portions were a good size.

Chris was lovely at The King Brychan, and service with a smile.

Quick light lunch with some of the family, nice food and service

, wonderful service, very friendly and welcoming

Lovely atmosphere, really friendly welcoming staff! Food gorgeous as always! We had the Sunday lunch! Served by Crystal, really friendly and helpful!

Richard, your front of house/team leader was exceptionally helpful in accomodating our party of three, one of whom is disabled and uses a mobility scooter. Gave us a warm welcome, nothing was too much trouble. An absolute credit to your company. In addition to Richard's excellent service I must also include Brent the chef who served our meals. So pleasant and helpful, a really engaging young man. Cannot fault the service from start to finish.

Thank you Crystal and all staff at the king brychan another great dining experience

Great food, great service, Amanda was great

Very friendly atmosphere and staff are brilliant. Great food worth the money.

Crystal was very pleasant indeed!

Friendly staff excellent service excellent food A young man called Morgan was very helpful

Louise and richard was very helpful and amazing as it was my hubby's 50th birthday and arranged a piece of cake to the table with a candle and sang happy birthday loved the carvery too thank you guys for the little surprise for hubby (he wasn't happy as everyone was looking at him lol but I think he was happy really) xx

Nice atmosphere with great friends

Resonably priced meals and staff were pleasent and helpful and richard was lovely and polite

Had a carvery normally fine but this time food wasn't hot enough

Served by Dan who is always very polite ,helpful and a credit to your establishment, I visit fairly regularly and find all staff very pleasant,and helpful.looking forward to my next visit.

Great service, will return again 👍🏼

The boy chris was very polite and helpful with me and my kids, more people like chris we need in the world. Great customer service, well done chris. 👏 Food was very nice kebab was spot on. Thanks.

Lovely friendly staff who really make an effort to make you feel welcome

Mathew , Meghan and Chris served us for our visit today and they were all fantastic very friendly and couldn’t do enough! Food was lovely as always

Good food. The member of staff who helped our large party was called Meg. She was incredibly welcoming and did a great job keeping all our orders sorted. She went above and beyond. Food and drinks were good too!

Meg was an excellent and attentive server! Very kind and patient with our large group. Tasty fries!

We came in with a party of 20. Meg was incredibly communicative with us, answered all of our questions, and was super nice through our whole meal. Thank you!!!

We had a huge disorganized group and our server Meg was more than accommodating and made sure every one of us got the right orders and drink and follow up. We appreciated her patience and care!

We came in with a large party and Meg handled the group with ease. Thanks for the great service!

We received great service when we came for a meal last night, we were served by crystal on the bar and considering how busy it was she carried on serving with a smile even though she was rushed off her feet, the food was beautiful thank you.

Felt as though staff were trying to rush us. Kept saying the carvery was nearly out of food (at 7pm?). Caused a few diners to change their order. We had booked a table for 15 with a week's notice so you'd expect there to be food available. The food presented was generally good but then staff started clearing the table as we ate. Finally staff were shouting goodnight to a colleague so loud as to be heard right round the bar. There were only our 15 people left in the venue but it was not even 9 o clock and we were made to feel as though we were keeping them up past their bed time. Even placed cleaning spray on the table while we were sat there to hurry us up.

Lovely meal. Pub has a nice atmosphere. Staff are helpful and friendly.

Had a lush Carvery, service with a smile and so well mannered and made my whole experience so enjoyable thank you Kim,Chris and Richard The other person I came with had the scampi and said it was incredible highly recommend will be back

Brilliant service even though it was busy, good carvery, had large, wish I had standard as I'm stuffed now.

Really below average pub. Half of the menu was unavailable will go to harvester across the road next time.

Jac very friendly and welcoming at the bar and Dan was so polite when serving the carvery. Really enjoyed!

BEWARE - If you have discount for NHS, Emergency Service or any other discount that allows money off all food… they will lie and say it’s unavailable for dessert! I spoke with a manager previously who explained this works on all food but not drink as per terms in the app… now when you ask… they lie. Also be prepared for extremely long waits, larger groups are split up with tables and bar staff being rude.. They have 3 tills to serve but understand the bar so be prepared for others being served before you as they play musical tills and forget who they have served… This is the 3rd visit this month and the same items off the menu… Gammon and Streak… missing a bunch of vegetarian options and vegan options. Overall if you value and evening out, I would avoid this place, the last 2 of 3 visits have been terrible, we gave it another chance but this was our last. If we can make ever a few people aware to avoid ruining their evening then all the better… otherwise be prepared to pay for a disappointing evening.

Great service from Amanda, very helpful and food was served quickly and hot.

Great food and customer service.

Great service,great food and service from Richard was excellent

Was greeted very friendly from all the staff, Kim took our order and was very polite. We will definitely be coming back with the whole family. Cowboy burger was one of the best burgers I have had for a while !!

Chris was amazing, the service and friendliness he displayed was very comforting and very professional

This was my second time coming here and Chris gave amazing service definitely coming back again

The service was absolutely amazing, and the food was delicious. Above all this i’d like to say that Christian done an amazing job serving us and making sure that our meal was okay ect. Definitely will be coning back.

Staff here are lovely crystal was really helpful and polite

Very enjoyable Richard exceeded expectations

Best carvery i ever had and i had a lot in my time staff really friendly and welcoming highly recommended

Crystal was lovely and made it a pleasant evening.

Only pub we could find in Merthyr

Great food to be had ,and really friendly staff, overall a fantastic night out many thanks 🙏

We met and dealt with efficiently and politely by Richard who was also a wealth of information about Christmas lunch. Crystal who served us was polite and attentive 👍🏻 Great staff. Carvery was warm and tasty. Only gripe - some of the comfy armchairs are way too low for the table

Very reasonable price. Good service and good.

Me and my partner went there for a last minute meal and it was lovely, the staff were really friendly, especially teigan! He made our experience there amazing!! Will defiantly be back again!

Lovely meal and excellent bar service from Crystal! Even saw our food had arrived at our table and offered to bring my drinks order over so we could enjoy our food. Great service and very polite.

Arrived with out booking but the young man on the door think it was Richard who managed to fit us in and so glad has food was good carvery and all hot and prepared well waiters works so hard crystal and Kim don't stop clearing away and setting tables such a busy day with weather so bad

RIP OFF Meat & trimmings carvery is the same price as veg only carvery without Yorkshire puds and stuffing!! Previously a 5 star rating from me but..... since they have decided to charge the same amount for a carvery with out the meat( just veg, no Yorkshires or stuffing), as one with the meat and trimmings. I would definitely say if you are a veggie or a vegan to swerve this place ....it's now a total rip off!! This review is from last year. I think her name was Meghan, she is a vegan and was absolutely wonderful. We have had her Twice now on our visits to the pub, I keep meaning to review her but kept forgetting to. She is very knowledgeable about what foods are suitable for us vegans and being vegan herself, we feel reassured and confident with what she advised. She is polite and Informative, she went the extra mile for us last time and gave us the chocolate bombs left over from Christmas. They were delicious. She remembers us, when we go which adds a great personal touch. Wish there were more people like her to promote excellent customer experiences 🥰

Customer care excells with all staff. Meal to be as expected offering overall value.

Was served by Morgan when ordering at the bar very friendly and helpful

Amazing food! Will definitely be coming back! All staff did an amazing job but particular thanks to Morgan for excellent service! 👏

Crystal was lovely she made our visit here so nice and was a pleasure to be there

Its was my daughters birthday we come down here to celebrate and the staff was really polite and friendly and done the table up lovely for her thanks to crystal and chris for sorting the cake out and singing happy birthday after having a rough day they really cheered her up.
