This is a nice pub with outdoor seating. They held a memorial for my uncle last Friday, and they did him proud. Thanks to all at the Morlais for this special day.

Very friendly and helpful staff. The evening buffet was first rate: good quality, good variety and very generous amounts. We would definitely go there again. We were treated to the buffet so can't comment on prices.

The second week running we have had Sunday lunch takeaway from here and it will certainly be the last. Apparently under new catering management, they need to be sacked in all honesty. Food was freezing cold on both occasions, literally a spoonful of veg and two small boiled potatoes. Meat was ok but very little of it. And half a jug of gravy compared to a full one in other establishments we have visited in the area. The price they are charging for this dreadful meal is ridiculous, when you can get a much better and hotter meal for less at the Lady Charlotte just down the road. Absolutely terrible, avoid like the plague!

We visited for Sunday lunch the food was of a very high quality with friendly attentive service our meals were good value and the portions generous. Drinks were reasonable in price and served with a smile. I Would heartily recommend this establishment to anyone visiting the area so much so as the title of my review say's my wife and I chose it for our wedding reception. I must add for that occasion Helen and Martin the couple who run the establishment were most accommodating with nothing being to much trouble.

A little gem of a resteraunt, tucked away in the heart of Dowlais, steeped in the Iron, Steel and Coal industry. Been there many times now and never dissapointed. It's not very big (seats approx.40-50) but it's full of character with the historical pictures and wonderful mural of Dowlais and the steel workers with faces glowing from the furnaces. You get a real feeling of being there during those industrious and dangerous days. The food is excellent. Fresh, well prepared, well presented and cooked to perfection. Very good choice of meals on the menu and individual tastes are catered for, anything can be requested, they always try hard to please. Specials, that change daily, are also available. Prices are reasonable by anybody's standards, but excellent value considering the quality of food you receive. Lunchtimes on weekdays you can have the earlybird menu, two courses for £10.50 (I think), including steak. There is also an OAP menu, 2 meals for £9.50. You literally can't go wrong. The staff are always pleasant and work hard to make sure you get what you want at the standard you expect. Nothing is too much to ask for. A Ramp is available for wheelchair access. Children are welcome and there are childrens meals available. Car parking is outside the resteraunt, at the rear of the pub. Normally plenty of room except Friday afternoons (workers stopping off for a swift one before going home). Unfortunately, the resteraunt has been closed a couple of times due to lack of interest. So always phone ahead to ensure it is open (01685722791). But when it is open, at lunchtime, you can generally walk in and sit down without reserving. The resteraunt is availble for functions, which means it is closed to the public when catering for functions, which has happened to me a couple of times. The bar meals are also excellent, so if the resteraunt is closed you can get food of excellent standard and value there too. BUT BEWARE, the locals in the bar use very strong language, particularly when watching sport on the tv. Doesn't bother most people but might be an issue if you have children. But it is their local after all. Sunday lunch in the bar is definately worth a try but it can get very busy, especially if there is a sporting event on the tv. They also do takeaway meals/sunday lunches which you can collect and take home if you want to eat inpeace and quiet. Try it.
