New Stags Head in Carmarthenshire

Proper local, football and horse racing, great atmosphere and a great pint of Guinness. What more do you want?

An amazing little hidden gem very friendly staff we were greeted with a smile and warm welcome. Lovely atmosphere in what is a small cozy setting with sky tv Duke box for music which was quietly playing in background. Good joice of starters main and desert they also had special boards .food arrived quickly and well presented and was amazing will be making this a regular haunt we in carmarthen. Even the toilets were clean and tidy my wife said the ladies was spotless with complementary ladies toiletries I made her go back in and take a pic as she was so impressed. Highly recommend a visit to the new stags head well don to all the staff.

Enjoyed the food/price/friendly staff and will revisit this place again and again love this place

Popped in for lunch and found the staff very friendly and food and drink reasonably priced. Good portion sizes and good food quality. Home cooked food. Would highly recommend.

Lovely meal. We had plaice, one with chips, one with jacket potato and the cottage pie. Delicious. Presented very nicely. Very tasty and hot. Staff lovely. Puddings delicious also. Will definitely come again.

This place offers great selection of food at very reasonable prices. It drinks prices are very good too. Nice outside seating area and family friendly

We have eaten here Many many times , lovely food gr8 staff. However today we have had SERIOUS PAINT FUMES whilst attempting to have our lunch. This is actually Not acceptable. The staff have apologised . We would Not have stopped for food today. With how Awful the fumes are.

Good food at very reasonable prices. Had the mild curry, rice and chips....very tasty. Piping hot served with a smile.

Staff are very good And the food was great 👍

Called in for mid week lunch menu was lovely it was hard to decide something for everyone and smaller plate meals available.

Nice pub good hot food do selection of cheaper meals for smaller appetite 😋

Booked a table to celebrate a birthday on New Years Day to be advised upon arrival that the table had not been reserved for us despite the booking as the pub had “not heard from us” and we hadn’t turned up to decorate the table at 3pm on the day of the booking. At the time of booking the table no time was given or agreed for decorating the table, we had simply asked whether we would be allowed to decorate the table to which a hesitant response was given. Extremely disappointing and completely unreliable customer service given that the booking had not been cancelled and the pub had not tried to contact us to confirm whether we still required the table, and had instead decided to disregard the booking altogether despite knowing it was for a large party to celebrate a birthday. Even more disappointing that upon arrival, no member of staff attempted to clear the table for us. Requested to speak with the manager at the time of arrival to be told that the manager was not in the pub to speak with us.

Cam here for breakfast and WOW stunning food is cooked to order compliments to the chef bar staff friendly all round 10 out of 10 amazing couldn't find a fault

We just found it by chance , seen they started doing Sunday lunches. Took a chance and went in. We weren't disappointed. The beef dinner was out of this world. Tasty hot and plenty of it. Defo recommend 👌

Absolutely stunning Sunday lunch, lovely fresh veg, gorgeous gravy just stunning if I could give 1 piece of criticism it would be that the bar/room was cold but lovely food

Popped in for a quick lunch, and really impressed. The food was really tasty, came out quickly and the portion size was great. The pricing was fair for what you had, I definitely recommend!

The service is quite quick and the food is very nice. The location it’s in a main road with loads of shops.

The breakfast was quite simply Perfect! Bacon and sausages are too die for! And portion size is perfect for me, an absolute must try. Will DEFINITELY be coming back.

Popped in to get some breakfast as I had a couple of ours to kill waiting in Carmarthen and I was pleasantly surprised to say the least! Lovely warm welcome in a nice clean venue. I ordered a traditional breakfast and coffee all for about £9.00 and it was great. Bacon cooked perfectly, nice sausages not your usual deep fried rubbish, perfect egg, generous amount of fried potatoes, perfect granary toast with proper butter and tomatoes on the side. Only one other customer in here eating breakfast which seems a shame as this place should definitely be busier given how nice it is! If you are in Carmarthen and want a good value and really really nice bit of food I definitely recommend it here!

Visited after a long absence and the meals and the staff are just as friendly and plentiful as before (though not in that order). We cannot recommend this pub highly enough as value for money: particularly if you like horse-racing.

So tried this place with the family on a holiday trip, the food was amazing and the price was pretty reasonable as well, nice and clean, caters for kids and the staff where really friendly and helpful as well. Would highly recommend this place for food ☺️

Excellent breakfast. We have been here a few times for breakfast (served until 11.30am) and cannot recall ever being disappointed with the food or the service.

A good pub, right in town. Friendly staff and locals.

Friendly staff,usual bar type meals

Great little pub. Excellent food and service 👌

On the evening my work team visited (around 6pm) we were served by a very dour faced barmaid who had a sarcastic attitude with four of our party who ordered drinks. The seating outside was pleasant and made up for the lack luster service from that particular start member.

I live in Barry and quite often catch the train down for lunch! Great food beer and staff love the place!

Good pub grub and a warm welcome.

Good happy pub great place to meet new people happy days

Nice place with good atmosphere

Good food presented nicely hot and flavoursome

Excellent roast Turkey for a very reasonable price - GBP 12.50. There were also senior food choices for GBP 7.50. The staff were friendly and service was good.

Had a roast turkey lunch (as it was near Christmas presumably). Tasty turkey slices with stuffing and lots of vegetables. There was a limited choice menu for seniors at a lower price, which looked good as well. Would return.

Excellent pub My local in town Always a superb atmosphere for sporting events and the food is great Never a bad evening here Great locals too Highly recommend

Great food !! Highly recommended!!

Great food, reasonably priced and lovely service

A dieing breed of pub, a proper pub. Great prices and Lovely staff. Me and my partner regularly come here for a cheeky pint, while on a shopping trip. The restaurant area is clean Tidy, the food is good quality and very tasty also freshly prepared, it is traditional pub food, that my parents and partner enjoy when my family visit. A very friendly happy pub. I would recommend. Especially if you remember before weatherspoons etc took over the world. And a pub was a hub within a community.

Wonderful pub with two sides and beer garden. We came for breakfast and to watch the All Blacks at 8 a.m. Diane our server was a delight. Food was very good and a good value for money.

Amazing pub nice welcome and stunning food was served by Lucy and what a nice waitress but then she left and there was another waitress and the same attitude to us which was amazing

An excellent pub food and service excellent highly recommended

Lovely little pub tucked away down an alley in Carmarthen town centre, have been before and the food never dissappoints. Great menu snd all home cooked and nicely presented. Will definitely eturn again.

Beautiful lunch, highly recommend the steak pie, reasonably priced and very good service.

Had breakfast with the boys the other day it was fantastic.Nice pub I wish it had a real ale on though. Will be going back to try the specials menu it looks good.

Lovely meal couldn't fault it excellent value for money

Had breakfast here yesterday. Brilliant service, lovely atmosphere and great food. Staff always friendly and helpful.

Cracking pub , just off the main shopping district of this bustling market town. Always a great atmosphere, yet to try the food but looking forward to sampling it in the near future.

Another excellent value for money meal. Service was quick even though the place was busy. Full plate and full belly. Ideal place to pop in during your shopping trip to the town.

Good crack great staff and ecelent beer

Great food at great prices. 2.meals for £18.00 and they where both lovely.

Well managed lovely atmosphere and food is great

Warm and comfortable. Food nicely presented and wholesome .

Welcoming pub, with cracking gin selection. And even better food.

Brilliant pub and good choice of drink

Found this little gem in town after struggling to find places to eat. Highly recommend. Lovely selection, polite and friendly staff and great food. Portions,taste and time it took to come out were perfect. Would visit again if this way in future. Thanks New Stag's head team

Had table booked on arrival we was seated straight away. Food came fast from ordering and staff was very welcoming and smiley. Food was delicious and worth the price. Thank you

A totally lovely pub that does great food. Only word of caution. Take care opening the mayonnaise sachets! Vicious!

Not been there for a long time friendly staff friendly landlord 👍

Food was absolutely incredible and lovely! 😁

Great place to visit lots beer is okay and wine some seem over priced other are not.

Good food. Bit hard to find tho. Missed the passage next to Greggs

The place was busy, we hadn't booked. We sat in the garden the food was piping hot and delicious. Would go again when we're there.

What a lovely find.!! Was on our way to Tenby and we always stop off in Carmarthen for some lunch first. Our usual place was closed for refurbishing which left us wondering where and what to do. After wandering around for a bit we came across this lovely place. Lovely tasty food with plenty of choice and prices were very good. Staff were friendly and service was quick and cleanliness was first class. Will definitely return.

Great prices, friendly service, lovely place to visit

Lovely staff and decent pub with Tv's. Good pub for a couple of drinks when passing by.

Thanks for having us - enjoyed visiting you

Amazing place to have breakfast go there every week

Beautiful food, cooked go perfection

Had a lovely late lunch here, very nice patio area, difficult to find a place with outside area to eat. Large portions and plenty of choice. Downside, no car parking.

Been visiting this pub 4 many years,still the best mixed grill in south west wales staff are brilliant nothing to much trouble for Joanne + amber,great meal again today tues 4 Aug half price deal great bonus back next wk DEFFO.robbie - pauline Llanelli.

I've really missed eating out in a relaxed and old fashioned Restaurant ! Lol This town pub has got things just right ! I believe one of the hardest jobs, out there,now, is the Publican's ! Apart from The Security Guard's Role ! The majority of customers who drink do not eat ! So its important to keep the two sections apart ! In my personal opi0nion !Maybe we could drink in one bar and the drinkers drink in another ? Lol Then we can both let our hair down! Lol. Amber and Joanne, the two ladies that served us, were so professional, and Friendly ,to me and my disabled friend, from Burry Port ! It was a very rainy day so we got our orders in quic ? Lol. Thank you, both of you , at making us, 2 x non alcohol drinkers,and also, both drivers,feel so welcome! We both enjoyed, our MEALS and my friend, kept commenting, on her portion of Scampi ! Lol It was huge ! I had a Rump steak with Chips and peas and some salad. It was cooked just how, I like it ! Medium.rare ! Thank you, All.OF YOU , at the New STAGs Head , in Carmarthen ! GREAT NAME , by the way ! Denise x lucky Gillette x

Good was yummy great atmosphere and lovely staff.

Four of us stopped in here for lunch to watch the rangers v Celtic game - we bought drinks and meals. There was only one other couple eating lunch and not watching tv. They left at half time. When the match was 70 minutes in, with no warning even though it was obvious we were watching rangers v Celtic match, the barmaid changed channels to the arsenal v Chelsea game. There was only one other person in the bar by this point sipping a pint. The barmaid refused to put the rangers v Celtic match back on or put it on another tv because apparently the other tvs needed to have the racing on. Very poor customer service for 4 customers that had specifically gone to the pub to watch the match and spent money on lunch and drinks for that reason. Won’t be back and would recommend seeking alternative venues for sport events in camarthen as there is obviously very limited viewing options at this pub. Food was average.

Great place with excellent food, all the sport you could wish for on large tv's, friendly staff and patrons. Will definitely call in again when I'm next in Carmarthen.

Great atmosphere good food and beer and live sport. Bookies right next door

Excellent food and good service

Very nice meal at a reasonable price with nice staff

Found this place a few months ago, Good choice of menu & reasonably priced. 1st class service, Do not have to wait too long for freshly made meals. Try to have something different on every visit. There is a specials board that have an excellent choice,also the standard menu. This has become our favourite place to visit. Highly recommend

Great atmosphere, great beer, fantastic host brilliant place to visit. 6 stars

if you do not visit this excellent Sport Bar in Carmarthen for nice food and one, two or more beer ,) you miss the best and you are not really saw Carmarthen. Or with my words. Vergiss die Burg oder den Marktplatz - gleich in die Sport Bar. Tip: Neben Bier und super Essen am besten noch ins Wettbüro ums Eck - gleich nochmal soviel Spass

Very nice meal, staff were very nice. Pub nice and clean with a good selection of choice on the menu

Haven't been for a number of years and have been rewarded for getting back get back there at last! Superb meals of excellent value. The second time I had a monster of a mixed grill: the steak was a little over-done but it was very tasty and I look forward to the next one. My wife has had the 'Pork Sizzler' and the standard has been consistent throughout. The staff are friendly and couldn't do enough to help us so we'll definitely be back.

Food great ..hot, freshly cooked...delious. The staff friendly, courteous and cheerful. ideal place for quick tasty lunch. clean well kept surroundings.

Despite the weather we managed to grab a reasonably price lunchtime snack from the new stag. We both had burgers which were definately packed with top quality beef. The bar staff were both welcoming and friendly which made the visit more enjoyable. I hope to revisit for another lunchtime bevey.

Very good food, Sizzling hot and clean with good service& good value for money . How- ever really out of date decor in the restaurant and music that might be better off at my grand mothers funeral. Resembles a doctors surgery from the 1950's. In desperate need of a face lift. No wheel chair access.

Amazing pub good atmosphere and cracking food staff are one in a million

Great pub good choice of drinks friendly staff

Very nice, good food and staff go and try?

Lovely welcome food always very tasty

Bad staff and very rude customer service.ordered over £30 of food and someone in our group has had recent gastric surgery.asked if we could order a child meal as they didnt want to waste food and was informed we could not as it was for under 12 year olds only.....staff was very rude and we will never go there again and would rather go hungry than spend anymore of our money in this establishment if we could give it minus stars we would very bad experience

We were recommended this pub by friends and were not disappointed The food was first class very hot a beautifully presented Staff great very pleasant cheerful and helpful The-food itself is you usual pub. grub but served and presented with a great deal of finesse Will certainly visit again

We haven't visited this pub for ages but decided to give it a go. It was incredibly busy when we entered but we found a corner table. I had herb and garlic chicken which was lovely and my husband had chicken and leek pie which he polished off. Very pleasant visit and would visit again.

Nice meal at a reasonable price. Clean and tidy

This is one of our favourite places to eat at when visiting Carmarthen town. We have tried a wide variety of their menu & have never been disappointed. My husband’s favourite is the Sizzling Cajun Chicken & I like everything!

Great town centre pub. Cracking ping of Guinness and lovely staff. Well worth a call

Pub traditionnel, ambiance agréable, bon repas.

Went here for lunch today and what an absolute pleasure it, my wife who is coeliac usually ends up wit a jacket potato not this time, the menu has a nice selection but the big surprise is the amount of gluten free meals, to see my wife tuck into a garlic and herb chicken was wonderful the other 5 of us thoroughly enjoyed what we had, it was well cooked and tasty, the staff were lovely and always had a smile, we will be back

We have eaten at the Stags Head numerous times during the week but have never had Sunday lunch until today and I can honestly say it was one of great best lunches we have had, We were a family of 6 adults and 1 8 year old. The staff were amazing very attentive and accommodating nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent hot, plentiful and very very tasty well done to the chef. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending the Stags Head, we will certainly be returning for Sunday Lunch. Very contented and well fed family.

Nice food and reasonably priced for town

I like the New stags head were I play darts and the people who owns it is very nice to know. FromChristina Evans back in Haverfordwest.Pembrokeshire.

We visit this pub quite regularly with our friends the food is really nice there is a nice variety of freshly cooked meals available they also do a few meals for the older generation at reduced prices ,can honestly state that we have never had a bad meal there and would definitely recommend you try the food here
