I came here for a socialise and catchup as I haven't been here since the new takeover and landlord. It was an 80s music night, and there were a few people dressed up for the occasion. I thought staff were very friendly and accommodating. Music was good and good vibes and atmosphere 👍

So there's a lovely children's park right opposite this pub. In the day time (when the pub is likely empty or with few customers) parents used to bring their children to the park and use the car park. It was never full as far as I could tell. Now the lovely owners of the pub have put in place charges for anyone using the *empty* car park. Not just evening times but all day. Great community engagement by Lewis Arms. Make it harder for kids and parents to use the park.

I came in for dinner, the place was grubby and dirty and there was a lump of hair in my food. Even prior to that the food was greasy and unappetising. Avoid at all costs! I should have gone with my gut when I walked in. Will never go there again 🤢

Avoid this pub! They use a parking company that send you a charge of £100 if you park in their car park! What a way to treat paying customers! Staff do not tell you about logging your car reg.! Why would you do that as a business? I'm surprised they have any stars at all on their reviews.

Good pint of Guinness as usual from this friendly local pub, but went here today 10/08/23 at 2:00pm, and the place was closed. We waited until 2:15 and another customer who was waiting in the car park tried to ring them but no answer, so don’t know what happened today

£100 parking fine for innocent mistake thinking it was free on Sundays. The pub should listen to all these terrible reviews about similar situations and make sure their experience is a bit more welcoming. It may not be directly their fault but they must do something about it as the car park is linked to them

AVOID THIS PUB!!! No signage outside saying that parking is monitored by camera! No sign saying that you have to enter reg in pub! Went in pub to have a drink, no where in the pub does it say to enter reg! No staff informed me that reg needed to be entered. Reg machine is apparently around back and when I was there the back was closed off so no chance at all I would even see the reg machine. Just had £100 fine in the post that I will NOT be paying!!

Do not park anywhere near this property. I didn’t park in the car park yet still managed to get a fine for parking on a neighbouring street with no signs! The fine was £100 for 20 minutes when the pub wasn’t even open. The fine goes straight to the pub so it’s obviously been set up as a profit maker. Avoid this place or risk getting scammed.

I am in my 60's and I can honestly say, without a doubt that I have never, in all of my life ever met anyone that I dislike enough to recommend this establishment to. When I entered the first thing that hit me was the smell !!! very unpleasant, sort of flowery chemically smell, not sure if it was toilet cleaner or carpet cleaner, but it was awful! I was the only customer. I had a glass of wine....it was so good I left it on the table. I would have not bothered to do a review of this place, it was so unmemorable and mediocre it did not deserve a review, not good enough for a good review and not bad enough for a bad one but! The barmaid was bored, sat on a stool with nothing to do, but serve me...so you think she would have mentioned that you have to put your car reg into the console, wherever it is hidden!!!! I suspect they do not encourage that sort of behavior, as probably the only income this pub gets is from parking fines. £3.10 for a glass of battery acid and £100 to park. (that's the twist) Lucky for me, I was working, so I got a receipt and was therefore able to prove that I was an actual customer and got the parking fine cancelled. But even so, it still leaves a bad taste in the mouth, literally!.

My partner and I recently visited the Lewis Arms for a few drinks of an evening. I am not even sure where to start! The first round of pints tasted of line cleaner. The staff behind the bar got annoyed when I politely mentioned it, the gent behind the bar was clearly intoxicated which we thought was a tad unprofessional and off putting! For such a lovely area it’s full of aggressive drunks! And don’t park in the car park unless you remember to put your reg behind the bar or the conman of an owner will pocket 80£ off you. A really disgusting pub for such a lovely area. Will never be returning and will insure all my friends and other mums at the school run know to avoid!

My husband was recommended the Lewis Arms in Pentyrch for Friday steak night. We decided to give it a try. I must be honest I thought it was too good to be true......2 steaks with the trimmings and a bottle of wine for £25. We were certainly not dissappointed. 2 sirloins cooked to perfection and lovely bottle of red wine. Excellent value. Car parking is free if you use the pub - as long as you enter your registration of the screen inside the pub. The owner/chef came out after our meal and had a very sociable chat with us regarding feedback. Defiantely recommend the Lewis Arms

Visited briefly for the first time recently with a friend. Quite down at heel place which clearly has had no real investment in it for years. A small group of loud and intoxicated youngsters were amusing themselves at the pool table. Left after 30mins to visit the Kings Arms instead which is the polar opposite, superb venue. A week or 2 later I received a £100 parking fine for using the pub car park and not entering my vehicle registration in the console within the pub!!! I saw no sign in the car park when I arrived. It was dark and I'd guess the sign wasn't illuminated. I didn't see any console in the pub and the barman made no effort to ask if we'd used the car park or explain the parking rules. I wondered how the place was surviving when I visited. Now I know how they've been making their money and it's clearly not from the food and drink. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID!!!

Don’t even drive into the car park unless you are visiting the pub itself. We were in there for 37 minutes to use the children’s nearby park and didn’t see the tiny parking warning! I had 28 days to pay £100 reduced to £60 if paid in 14 days. Group Nexus which is a London based parking sent the fine to my home address demanding payment. I appealed the parking notice but it was not upheld, saying the signs were of standard size! Shame on you Lewis Arms for the money making SCHEME you are associated with!!!!

My time in this (empty) car park over-ran by 60 seconds. I'm now facing a charge of £140.00. Multiple calls to the management, no one wants to help. I'm actually living paycheck to paycheck with a young family, and truthfully can't afford this. This kind of callous greed and unusual lack of compassion is unlike anything I've experienced at a pub before. Depressing.

The pub is based in a small village community and has embarked on an aggressive money making scheme with its car park. Any cars that enter get fined extortionate fees (hundreds of pounds) and it's impossible to validate tickets. This was clearly done intentionally because the owner doesn't value their customers, the community and has no plan to make money legitimately. I have no intention to ever use this pub again (used to be a local), especially when there's 3 other cracking licenced businesses in the village. Save yourself the stress and go to the King's Arms instead.

We parked in the car park of this pub in early April during lockdown. The only way to validate parking is by going into the pub which of course was shut. We have parked there before and the car park has always been half empty. Since then the pub seem to have embarked on a money making venture with a parking company and we have received a letter charging us for using a virtually empty car park. I would suggest that to discourage this sort of behaviour people do not use the pub.

Don’t visit this pub-they are issuing massive fines to anyone parking in the car park opposite despite them being shut due to lockdown. I was issued a fine when I was working at the studio opposite despite sending a message to explain why I was there and that I’d been told to park there. I also notice there’s a playground nearby and this car park would be ideal for parking with young children, much safer than street parking. If they are that bothered by people parking in their empty car park why don’t they set up a pay and display system?Terrible community spirit. Certainly won’t be recommending this pub to anyone.

What ever you do, please make sure you register when using the car park opposite or you will end up with a £60 fine for parking even for as little as 11mins. I think this is how they make most of their money as they fine you when closed. Food/drink may be nice but contracting out to some London sharks with their little spying camera is a bit crappy for a small country pub.

El servicio fue muy bueno, nos ofrecieron una botella de vino espumoso local para probar, que era encantador. La comida se cocina fresca, pero la espera no fue demasiado larga y con un fuego de leña ardiendo y un vaso en la mano, todos fueron muy acogedores. Teníamos el pastel de salmón, pollo y puerro, lasaña y lasaña vegetariana y un plato de pan de ajo. Todos disfrutaron sus comidas. Habíamos pedido una tarta de cumpleaños y nos trajeron una casera con velas encendidas, y estaba deliciosa. Gracias por otra excelente noche.

Es un agradable pub pasado de moda con un buen ambiente. No es una buena idea tener una gran cantidad de mesas, así que reservar con tiempo. Disfruté el almuerzo del domingo que a las 8. 95 para la comida principal fue una buena relación calidad-precio. La selección de carnes varía cada semana, pero el día que estuvimos allí fue carne o Turquía. Tenía la carne y era un poco masticable con muchos tendones y no con mucha carne. Pero no estropeó la comida ya que era sabrosa con deliciosos budines de yorkshire y delicioso queso de coliflor. Había un montón de todo, incluyendo salsa. Fue decepcionante no tener salsa de rábano picante disponible. ¿Pensaría que era algo dado con carne? No sé si tenían salsa de arándanos para el pavo. Pero, en general, no dudaría en volver para el almuerzo del domingo y probar otras comidas del menú. Buen servicio amable.

Este es mi pub local y está bajo nueva administración desde febrero de 2018, por lo que la mayoría de las reseñas aquí no están relacionadas. Emma e Ian, los propietarios han hecho un gran trabajo al tomar el pub. Hay un tentador menú de clásico 'pub grub', servido todos los días, porciones generosas, comida sabrosa y precios razonables. También sirven un asado de domingo crujiente. Dan la bienvenida a los senderistas y admiten perros. Hay un salón acristalado para cenar, así como el salón, con un gran fuego en los días fríos, o un agradable jardín al aire libre cuando está soleado. Ellos organizan una banda una vez al mes un viernes por la noche, y han mantenido nuestra prueba semanal en marcha, 8 pm los miércoles. Están disponibles para funciones privadas y se han adaptado a un estándar muy alto para grupos y celebraciones locales recientes. Muchas organizaciones locales tienen sus reuniones y eventos sociales allí. Un pub local apropiado: la falta de revisiones recientes es un testimonio del hecho de que la mayoría de los clientes usan el boca a boca.

El pub era totalmente impersonal y vacía y nos dijeron que no se sirve comida hasta las 18:00 aunque la placa fuera de dicho comida se sirve hasta las 3 pm los viernes. Nos deberían haber dejado, pero decidimos tomar una copa y cacahuetes. Mi vaso de agua estaba sucia en el borde y entregados a mí después de estar swilled apresuradamente y todavía tenía suds. El lager estaba bien, pero todo el lugar parecía sucia y sin duda no volveremos aquí. No hay bienvenida y sentimos que en general.

Estoy escribiendo esta crítica, ya que fue uno de los otros dos comensales mencionada en el anterior comentario. Tuve una cena encantadora de gambas y patatas fritas y una pinta de amargo y tengo nada de que quejarse. También me gustaría destacar que no trate de cambiar o pedir nuevas como el vinagre ha dicho el crítico anterior.

Booked a table for seven of us,on arrival we were warmly greeted and shown to our table,the menu although small is just what you want from a local pub,there were vegetarian options and specials on,the new owner and chef was very helpful when discussing the menu and tailored a dish for my vegetarian daughter.we all ordered very different meals and all agreed that it was lovely,we managed four desserts between us which again were lovely.on paying our bill for seven mains and four desserts it didn't break the bank.will definitely be visiting again for good food and good value too.

Went out for food with the tribe. Looked on the TripAdvisor for local restaurants with good reviews. Lewis Arms in Pentyrch came up as good food and new owners. So booked 2.30pm for Sunday dinner yum. Got there, greeted by one of the locals who was enjoying his Sunday; fair enough no problem. Lady greeted us asking our name for the booking, dithered a fair bit until I asked can I get a pint please & what wine do you have? Reply: red or white.. what white do you have R: just white or red which one? oh ok. Think the publican or member of staff was still a bit wrecked from the night before. We left before the pint was poured.Managed to get in to Miller and Carter Thornhill and had a fab meal instead!

Visited for Sunday lunch with our dog. New lovely landlady Kate who cooks fresh vegetables served separately. As we had our dog we sat in the conservatory and made the most of the autumn sunshine. Good value lunch at 7.95. Will go again soon.

I went into these premises with my young daughter aged 19 months old in the daytime there was nothing but drama to describe it accurately so unsanitary is beyond a shambles old and middle aged people were not allowed in the establishment only the young clique were allowed in it it was like the premises were targeting a certain clientele young hooligans should be the new tag line to enter nothing but scum runs in and out of the place so beyond unfriendly it's beyond a joke especially the old man who calls and thinks himself "manager" with the tash thinks and acts like he owns the place when he can only muster a round of drinks after 30 minutes of ordering is something to be witnessed!! Absolutely terrible food after approximately waiting over 60 Mins food came cold and undercooked chicken was literally raw bleeding on my plate never experienced anything like this in all my life if you don't want to throw your money down the drain I strongly suggest you do not eat here I recommend King arms down the road which is friendly customer service and lovely food or the Gwaelod-y-Garth inn which is only down the road in either direction and is so much better quality and perfection is unreal try anywhere but the Lewis arms in Pentyrch waste of time energy and money

This is a great little place in the shadow of Garth Hill, just north of Cardiff. What makes it is that the food is genuinely prepared with care and the hosts are genuine friendly folk. Top class hostelry

don't come for a gourmet meal or a special night out but if you want a basic pub meal well cooked and with friendly service this meets the ticket .we came with friends for an evening meal and will try again for lunch .some of the previous reviews refer to the previous landlords so you give this a try.

This is a small but inviting restaurant and pub. The manager's wife prepares all the meals for your table. The simplicity adds to the flavor, allowing you to appreciate your meal without grand expectations. I am already planning my next visit on the special occasion of the Gardeners Walk event where the Lewis patrons have put together a special menu for the day.

Popped into the Lewis arms whilst staying at the holiday inn apprx 10 mins walk away, and the pub was friendly, and lovely atmosphere. The menu was extensive with great deals on offer, as well as a range for the kids to choose from too. We had a good meal the dishes were hot, and arrived in excellent time. Our desserts were a little later but we were told this on ordering- we didn't mind as the kids were entertained by their colouring activities and we didn't feel rushed. Though busy, the staff were very friendly and attentive, they checked on our meals and were able to briefly chat and make us feel very welcome. Just what we had expected of a local Welsh village pub, and the final note - the husband enjoyed his pint of brains dark ( something he's not had since uni life in the 1990s.) Would recommend this to anyone looking for good value, honest meal in a friendly place.

I should have read the signs. 4pm on a sunday and hardly anyone in there. They brag on the menu that their sunday dinners have"real gravy"........its not, it's just brown water. The beef was fatty and stringy, it seemed like the unseasoned veg had been microwaved, the roast potatoes were the frozen variety. We left most of it. Didn't complain just walked out, they obviously just don't care about their food or their customers. Shocking!

Went to the Lewis Arms to take advantage of their Sky Sports license. There was only a handful of people in the pub and we were clearly the only non-regulars. Therefore there was plenty of space by the big screen TV, but not much atmosphere!There was a shortage of drinks too. The landlady explained she hadn't been to the cash and carry yet so we had no choice of bottled beer and there was only one flavour of crisps on offer. unfortunately the lager ran out halfway through the evening too!If this sounds like a bit of a nightmare I should emphasise that we had a really good evening. We were welcomed and made to feel valued and we left happy.We will go back again.

Down for the rugby...stayed at 73 previously and loved it: cocktail bar, friendly staff, lots of amenities. Clear that since then it'schanged hands. The website still talks of luxurios rooms and the pictures still suggest boutique hotel: the prices certainly do. But, this place is now nothing of the sort. It is an avergae coffee shop with massively over-priced rooms. There are no "hotel" staff. If you arrive later in the day and once the coffee shop has closed, there is nobody around at all. You can't even get into the building unless someone else staying there lets you in. Then you have to manually check in yourself using their stupid machine which then punches out a key card which doesn't work. A night porter (who was very personable) arrives at 8pm...before then you're on your own...in the rain. Once in, you have access to your basic room, which doesn't have many of the facilities you expect and which have been promised...and, that's it. Breakfast (which exaggerates the term) isn't available until after 8am and only then if the "order's been delivered). This smacks of a business either in financial trouble or unwilling to spend money: either way a bit of a con when you've paid nearly £400.

Met a friend for lunch on Wednesday. Found the meal to be ok for the price. Was served by the plump lady who was extremely pleasant despite being clearly very busy. All In All a lovely experience just a shame we had to wait so long for food, I understand it was busy but would assume the staff in the kitchen would be enough to account for their bookings.

Sunday Roast was well prepared with a variety of components. The cut of meat however was not up to my standards.

Popped in as we were passing and could hear live music 🎶. Not our usual thing on a Sunday afternoon. It was full, but it was comfortable and we managed to get a table upstairs. What I was surprised at was that they had 270 different gins 😊. Bar staff were great and very knowledgeable.
