Loughor Boating Club Restaurant in Swansea

had a long wait for service, the small fish and chips I ordered although it was shown on the menu apparently was not actually available. I was brought the large fish and chips and can in all honesty say that it was the worst fish and chips I have ever had in my life

Lovely place unfortunately the wait for our food was over an hour when it came was cold and not much of it. After rewarming my wife's food she started to choke on what was to be a pice of glass. Complained to the waitress who was very apologetic but nobody came to see if she was OK. Very frustrated about lack of consern.

Had an excellent take away Sunday Lunch last week. Really tasty nicest gravy I've tasted. Beef melts in your mouth. Must say best in area and I've tried them all. Book early as they do run out quick

With little effort this place could be amazing, considering the view and location. So its a real shame that no one is interested of changing décor or giving the place a small makeover. Huge potetial missed there :(

Called in on the hop, myself my husband and my mum. What a lovely setting, on the estuary. We had a drink outside while waiting for a table which was so relaxing. The Carvary was excellent, real home cooking Sunday Lunch. We all enjoyed , but unable to manage a dessert, I wont have as much dinner next time, to ty the desserts. Recommended!

Myself and my husband popped in on the way home from shopping down Llanelli as we saw a sign saying they were serving food.we are so glad we did,food was absolutely lovely my steak was cooked to perfection,we decided to have a drink in the bar area,there were two TVs,modern jukebox pool table and dart board drinks prices very reasonable and a good selection,we have booked in for mother’s day lunch on Sunday and really looking forward to it

Fab pub great location,bar staff can’t do enough for you...patrons greet you with open arms will be back definitely

Terrible bar staff and full of drunks all of the drinkers practically undressing my wife with they're eyes avoid this dump

Drugs in the car park being smoked every night, comittee was told and do nothing, it's a health and safety disaster as it's so run down, park area disgusting along with the rest of it. Also spoke to a lot of boat owners and was told of theft and no facilities for boat users also I was shown a video of the guy in charge of the yard rallying a car around the boat yard horrifying to think people pay for secure storage

Visited this establishment with my three kids, avoid at all costs full of drunks who have no respect for other guests also noticed a young girl being served alcohol. Outside was an awful mess and the smell of substances being smoked there was definitely not tobacco. Was surprised to hear of a off duty police officer using the establishment could often be found so drunk that he falls to sleep in the bar. We left pretty swiftly and won't be teturning.

Rundown place very unwelcoming furniture miss matched and could do with replacing. Smoking areas are disgusting and what they call a park should be pulled down before a child is hurt. Potholes everywhere in carpark and it could also do with a clean bins full rubbish everywhere. Was checking it out for a possible Sunday lunch booking but I don't think so. I also own a boat and was thinking of putting it in the yard but heard off one local the yard is neglected by the committee. Stay away at all costs.

Didn't realise we had to book a table for Sunday lunch and was told it was fully booked. Sat outside hoping for a cancellation and we were in luck. Choice of four meats with the carvery and ALL the trimmings. Delicious food and excellent service.

We visited for a family Sunday lunch and it was a pleasant experience. The food was a standard carvery and reflected the price you paid. It was quiet but being a sunny bank holiday Sunday, I'm guessing most people would be at the beach.The venue is a little dated and the parsnips could do with some improvement. I'd probably visit again sometime in the future but it's more of a stop off for locals as opposed to a restaurant you'd travel to visit.

Called in the summertime on the way too Swansea for a drink very impressed nice seating area outside will call again.

Beautiful attention to detail for our Christmas family dinner for 12! Lovely atmosphere, value for money with drinks and food, Pretty table display! Has been newly decorated since our last visit and it’s fantastic! Staff were very attentive and joined in the festive spirit. Dinner itself was outstanding! Lovely range of starters and desserts too. Crumble and custard always a winner. Always a worry of mine when we go out for Christmas lunch with the children that they have to sit still and that I will have to enforce that! I needn’t have worried. Such a lovely atmosphere. Children could relax in the very welcoming and family oriented environment. See you next year!

Had a faboulas Christmas dinner with my family really good well come from staff Christmas crackers on table really good service food was excellent place was full with people really enjoying themselves will be going back next year

Just back from my second visit to the Loughor boating club for a Sunday carvery! Stunning dinner fair play! Just as good as the first! Absolutely stuffed walking out of there! Good selection of well cooked meats & veg on offer! A special mention for the stuffing, the chef's grandmother's recipe! You really cannot go wrong for the price! We'll be back! Well worth the 104 mile round trip!

Lovely fresh sunday lunch overlooking the estuary. Small but pleasant environment with lovely staff. Reasonably priced too! My mother in law loves the new J20 Water Melon Spritzer which was a welcomed thirst quencher on a sunny afternoon! Children love it especially the small enclosed play area! Looks like this will be our new regular!

Very pleasantly surprised by this place. Went as a last minute arrangement but ended up with a very tasty carvery. The meat portions were generous and the veg was cooked just right. Its not the most glamorous place you'll go but it's quiet with great view over the estuary.

Good value Sunday lunch but the actual place is a dump , they need to spend some money and do it up, good Sunday lunch if you don't mind the surroundings

Excellent Sunday lunch service was very good room needs to be updated to attract weekday dinners Vegetarian option available for daughter gravy almost as good as dad's

friendly staff nice food bit cramped spacewise would go againwent with wife for sunday lunch looked to be very busy...

Went to a private party, room bit dated, food acceptable, dj was not a professional but did his best, cld...

Went today for Sunday lunch. There were 7 of us and we had a fabulous meal. It's not a swanky place but perfectly acceptable and we found all the staff lovely and friendly and the food was excellent. Great value for money in our view and we certainly will be going back again.

Had a nice meal with family no real complaints all clean plates. Family comments were that it looks a little rough from outside but all boat / dock tend too.Food was a little colder that perfect and barmaid must have walked 30m to poor the pints other than that we all enjoyed.

Just had a lovely Sunday lunch been there a few times never disappointed friendly helpful staff good food

I have been to the restaurant on a couple of occasions before as a member of a group of 20 plus people. The food has always been of a good quality- bearing in mind the numbers involved . Even when I was last up, the food was still lovely and warm- and there was still plenty of it. We decided to go for Sunday carvery today to see if it was equally as good- it was.The meat was well cooked, tasty and ample for the money. There was good choice of vegetables, all warm and restocked. I was amused to read one review which criticised the lack of salt. This is a very personal thing- I added just a little to mine- but for my daughter it was just right. For those who read reports- there is a hygene certificate on show. My daughter, who works in catering, said that it was good level bearing in mind that this is not a full time restaurant, but serves as a meeting room, bar etc when the restaurant is not open. The tables, cutlery etc were clean and the table mats too.We enjoyed a nicely priced two course meal. Maybe not cordon bleu, but very filling. As I stated my daughter is in catering and she thoroughly enjoyed it too. We will go again and can recommend it. Compliments the staff on their friendly service as well

Beautiful Sunday lunch friendly staff and have tried meals in the week and gave had good service and value with the same friendly staff

Called yesterday with the family. Decided to have food. Bad idea!! Waited over an hour for our food, which when it came, was, quite frankly, diabolical. Adults meals consisted of about 6-8 chips, 2 small triangles which masqueraded as a side order of garlic bread, no cutlery until we asked. Complained to the waitress about the size of the portions, and the next thing the 'chef' appeared & started snatching the plates, stacking them up, and snarled "just have your money back" . No sign of customer service, his attitude was appalling. My three year old granddaughter was in tears. Avoid it at all costs!!!

I've actually never written a review before but we had such an awful experience I just had to warn others. My 3 yr old left in tears because the "chef" took her food from her after waiting over an hour for the food to actually arrive. The guy should be ashamed of himself and his attitude. After an hour 2 lots of food arrived but with no cutlery which we had to ask for twice and when we questioned the fact we had ordered an adults dish and were given a child's portion the "chef" snatched the plates off the table and basically snarled "oh just have your money back then"....my daughter then started to cry and say that man took my food and I'm so hungry to which he took no notice. I will never go there again and subject my children to that kind of behaviour and I would urge others to avoid it.

I went for a meal this week and found the tables needed wiping as we could see sauce grimed into the tables, the cutlery wasn't clean and my partner had a dogs hair in his food, (the club has a jack Russell roaming about outside etc) the food was fair, but lack of parsnips and sauces, very disappointed and certainly will not be going back there again, no hygiene certificates were on show at all

The food here is to die for. Food cooked to perfection and very flavoursome. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and price is amazing. Cheapest I've seen around Loughor. Incredible views and quiet location. Not much to dislike really.

I had Sunday roast here for the first time and this is my opinion;Negatives1 no salt in any of the veg, I don't tend to add salt to any of my food at the table as I don't like too much, but the veg was ruined with no salt added during the cooking. 2 the roasties were sitting there from the first sitting which meant that they were now like chewing cardboard, really disappointed as this is my favourite part of a roast dinner. Positives1 the staff were lovely2 the dinner could have been the best in the area if only they had added the salt and served up fresh roasties 3 the meats were lush4 the stuffing was amazing 5 the gravy was lovelyWould I return?If I found out that the negatives were put right then definitely, as it is now I'm afraid that I wouldn't

went there today with husband and son and have to say ..it was the nicest carvery i have had .lovely hot tasty veg and four meats to choose from . the meal was very tasty and lots of it . the mashed swede i could have eaten on its own .it was a lovely meal and will go there again

We asked the Boating Cllub if we could hold my dad's wake there and they were really accommodating. We went for the £7.50 buffett and was really impressed, there was plenty to go around. The staff were brilliant and made us feel at ease due to the circumstances.

I have been for Sunday lunch at boating club many times and the food and service are brilliant . We went for dinner there on Christmas Day last yr and soo good we have booked again this yr . The staff couldn't helped any better with me and my son . WELL worth the money xxx BRING on Christmas Day this yr yummy xx

Myself, partner and two year old grandchild went lunch yesterday. Partner orderd large mixes grill I ordered beef and ale pie with chips and a child's meal. Mixed grill and child's meal arrived before mine. Waiter appolgised saying my pastry lid was taking longer than expected. The salad on my partners meal was warmer than the meat.!!! Waiter took his meal back and stated they did not have hot plate in kitchen so obvious his food had been left standing while they were waiting for my pie lid!!. His food was duly brought back they had re grilled all the meat so the meat was no longer rare which was my partner's preference. The chef was very abusive when we complained and we were told that if we did not like his food to go elsewhere. My meal was lovely but given that we were two adults and a child in an otherwise empty restaurant you would think they could get the timing of the food better!!! I will say the waiter was great and did his best but chef's attitude diabolical!!

Dirty marked plates and cutlery, food ok but cooks outside smoking main entrance says it all. No sign of any hygiene certificates. Checked afterward and it's a one star restaurant needing major improvement. Also not shown to public as required. Couple this with foul language from the other customers and you all you need to know. Not impressed and won't be back.

I have food down loughor boating club a lot and cant fault it one bit, prices are reasonable and plenty of food. Sunday carvery is stunning with a good choice of meats and veg aswell as a good choice of starters and desserts but its advisable to book for Sunday lunch as its normally fully booked.

We regularly have Sunday lunch at the Loughor Boating Club . Meals are served in four servings at 12 noon, 1pm, 2pm, and 3pm, though there is never pressure to move you on. Everything is well sourced and freshly cooked from scratch, to a very high standard...choice of starters and sweets, which vary seasonally, and a brimming carvery with a huge choice of meats and vegetables (and gravy to die for). The standard is very high. There is no background musak (thank goodness), and the whole atmosphere is of calm friendly enjoyment. Long may it continue!

I visited the restaurant with some friends and having had a bad start to the evening being let down by the taxi company, we hoped that the rest of the evening would be good. We were not disappointed. Siobhan our waitress was lovely and bubbly and put us all in a good mood. The food was ridiculously priced I chose the 32 ounce mixed grill which, together with my prawn cocktail starter and my chocolate pudding with cream as dessert came to just under £25.00p. Ivan the chef came to the table prior to our leaving which was an excellent sign of the service provided. I shall certainly drop anchor there the next time I visit Swansea.
