Food was borderline ok, but the chilli part of my meal (the dipper burger) was cold, and my wife's peas looked like they were green once back in the middle ages when they were perhaps first picked. Mother-in-law's Mac and Cheese was good though apparently. The unfortunate part about the whole thing is they asked us if our dinners were warm enough (weird thing to ask specifically about) and we told them "not really", but they didn't really do much. Ultimately we didn't kick up a fuss because it was all.... fine I guess. Just wouldn't go back there.

This is our goto place for Friday and Saturday lunchtimes. Food is great and wait times low. Prices are some of the cheapest I have seen in the Cardiff bay area. Certainly the cheapest pints. Greg is always happy to help, friendly and will bring our drinks outside no matter the weather.

I can't comment on the atmosphere as we only go for breakfast. Breakfast is spot on, good value and pretty good quality. My only negative is a cup of tea is on the pricy side, and if it was like wetherspoons or brewers fayre with free refill after your first it would be perfect. Staff are very good there.

The food, service and atmosphere were great. We came around midday for a brunch(ish) meal. We ended up having a lamb kofta flatbread and a lamb keema stack respectively and both were way above what you’d expect from a pub for the quality and sizing. The seating areas are lovely and even at midday it was still very lively inside with families. I can easily recommend coming here.

Would recommend however. Prices are respectable and Fridays are excellent for BOGOF on burgers. Will return in the future..

A Dissapointed trip, Our table was taken by someone else so we were put on another one which was too small, the drinks were fine. My child ordered a jacket potato 😳 £4.99 for the world's smallest potato, I could have bought a bag and had a decent size. My daughter is autistic and this didn't go down well. My burger was awful, burnt flooded in sauce and with a tiny blob of salad and onions. The chips were old and dry the sausage meat was pouring with grease the bun was stale. My partners burger was also burnt and all thrown together. We ended up skipping dessert and taking my children else where. Such a shame as it's not very often we go out as a family for dinner, it just caused more stress on us. My children also got bullied from the moment they stepped foot in the park, honestly what is wrong with this world.

Absolutely shocking here! Staff over worked/stressed/rushed. Tables dirty, stale bits of food, crumbs. The worst food I’ve ate in a long time. Poor quality, cold, soggy, it seemed warmed up not fresh thrown on the plate with no presentation. Atmosphere, It was a free for all with children running around playing tag, climbing over balcony area, screaming and shouting and allowed to do this by parents and staff. There was no control or rules. Other members of the public were tutting and horrified by the running of the place and got up and left. This seems normal as visited here about 2 months previous where it was exactly the same. I believe in 2nd chances to try again but Note to oneself NEVER EVER GO THERE AGAIN! Stay clear everyone, you will spend alot of money for a very bad experience and a ruined afternoon.

I keep giving this place a second chance, but the disappointment continues. Nothing wrong with the food, in fact its usually very good, but service is poor. The 'kids' serving try their best, are polite and courteous enough, but the current crew do seem out of their depth. My main issue is the time it takes from placing your order to actually receiving your meal. On my last visit there were three serving front of house and two behind the fryer, who appeared to be having a jolly old time. It took 20 minutes to get my of double pie and chips and I just wonder exactly how difficult can that be? There were only 3 other cusomers in the shop, we weren't waiting for a fresh batch of chips. My order was taken reasonably quickly, as was payment, so I suppose once you've paid, you either have to patiently wait and set frustration aside, or ask for your money back. On another note I can't recall another chippy where you pay before your food is actually prepared. Perhaps people have ordered in the past, got fed up and left without their food. Maybe that's where up front payment comes from? I thought chip shops were classed as fast food outlets, well not in Cowbridge. So come on Cowbridge Fish Bar, just how long can it take 5 people (with only 3 customers in the shop), to serve up two portions of pie and chips? Whilst waiting, another customer ordered a tray of chips and gravy about 10 minutes before I left. Not sure exactly how long that transaction took to complete, but he was still there when I eventually left. The 'system' seems to be set up strictly to benefit the owner and to the detriment of customers. Or is it just that priority is given to online orders? If that's the case perhaps customers could refer to a numerical queuing system just like phoning your docter. By the way online orders were picked during my 20 minute stint. Its such a shame because the quality of food has a lot going for it. I'll try againg soon and report any changes or otherwise! Spud Basher.
