What was a wonderful restaurant has closed its doors due to pandemic. Ground floor completely removed. Was told building being renovated and will reopen. So far it's derelict still. Great shame nice restaurant I enjoyed it. Let's hope something is being done. They own the building , so it's possibly a deliberate delay until this crisis is over. Floor removed means no rates to be paid as building unsafe. This could be the motive, if so well done.

Visited the restaurant as I do quite often during the week. Ordered a jacket potatoe with curry as sometimes the jacket potatoe with beans is a little dry. The jacket potatoe came out with a tiny bit of chicken and a small amount of thick sauce. I went to put salt on it and the top of the salt cellar came off all over my food. Tried to get it off but it had gone all over. Called the waitrose and told her it was really dry and explained what had happened with the salt. Said that I'd ordered it because I was expecting to have more sauce on it. She took it away and we waited about 15 minutes expecting them to come back with a new potatoe. She returned eventually with the same potatoe warmed up with a tiny bit more sauce saying that was all they had. The salt was still all over it and even the knife and fork had been warmed up with the potatoe. It was inedible. I told the waitress on the way out that I couldn't eat it and she just said sorry about that. No offer of a refund or anything

Wow wow. Just what a lovely cosy welcoming place. Stunning food and lovely atmosphere. BEATS ANY OF THE GENERIC PLACES IN THE RETAIL PARK. Had pizza and sweet potato chips. Best pizza I’ve had in ages. Emma is the main server there and she was absolutely wonderful we couldn’t have asked for a nicer more helpful and welcoming server. All the staff there are lovely and friendly and just wanna thank them for a wonderful night. Not had many out for a while and it was a special night for a bday. Would highly recommend and couldn’t thank Emma enough. All the best guys, absolutely love this place AND really hope that Merthyr town can regenerate and more people start to use the town centre again and more businesses come back.

A little more expensive for Sunday lunch here @ over £9 per main course although it was generally delicious some vegetables were a little more than al dente i'd suggest. Dessert was minimal, waffle has 1 scoop of ice cream, a drizzle od sauce & just 2 small strawberries at almost £5 not very generous at all. Awful single toilet which had a sloping floor on pre entry so easy to bump your head if you were not aware as door didn't open fully. Tables need a toothbrush cleaning on edges as had old food in the trim.

My husband and I have eaten in Woodfired more than a few times and the service and food is always fabulous but I was so pleased when I walked in the other night and saw Emma was now working there. You're greeted with a warm and welcoming smile and Emma then looks after you like you're royalty. Well done Woodfired, top notch staff for a top notch restaurant.

This was my first time at Woodfire bar and restaurantWe arrived at the restaurant & were promptly greeted by a young lady by the name of Emma, her warm smile & friendly nature instantly made us feel welcome, Emma showed us to our seats, although it was a very busy day (Christmas lights being switched on by local celebrities in the town) and the restaurant was full, nothing was too much trouble for Emma, our drinks arrived within minutes of ordering, the food was very prompt, hot and delicious, all the staff were very friendly & helpful, we ordered pizza’s burgers & dirty fries, although the restaurant was very busy, Emma checked on us several times to make sure we were completely satisfied, we couldn’t finish all of our food (I ordered too much) but Emma kindly put it all into a pizza box so we could take it home, the food was really cheap (woodfire does not sell “cheap” food, they sell quality food at a very low price) I enjoy eating out, I probably eat out several times a week, but I have never ever received such amazing customer service as we received from Emma, Emma made us feel valued & respected, we will definitely be returning

Tonight I got the privilege to help out with some last minute Halloween entertainment, I was contacted by Emma who was incredibly polite & friendly the booking was made with 2 days notice I was then contacted by Rod to confirm the booking and to provide some graphics for promotion, upon arriving at this incredible establishment I was greated with a huge warm welcome and a sparkling smile by Emma who was so greatful, I was given a fantastic performance area and allowed to set up with the required time needed, I was then offered a drink which is uncommon in many venues but they treated me as one of their employees, I got to see the whole evening in full swing from food service to drink service and boy I don't think I have seen any other restraint this efficient, tables were cleared down to save customers staring at dirty plates and the courses kept coming with huge smiles, the waiting staff and chefs where so efficient and thoroughly deserved their wage throughout the whole night the got involved with cheeky little dances and singing along with me and throughout the night Emma kept coming to see if everything was OK and if I needed anything, all in all this is one of the best venues for customer care by a mile not just me but all their other customers, it was a pleasure to perform for such an incredible night in a Phenomenal restraint and I cannot wait to return in 2020.

Our first time at this restaurant . The staff were very friendly. Our order was served fairly quickly. The pizza dough was crisp but I found the actual pizza extremely greasy. I had the mozarella and sun dried tomato. My friend had the goats cheese and pepper pizza and hers was crisp and not at all greasy. When we told the waitress she said that it was the sundried tomatoes but she would give feedback to the kitchen staff.I had the onion rings which were delicious. I also got a takeaway pizza for my husband and he really enjoyed it.

No coordination or organisation. Bar not attended, bottles warm. Staff were quite rude and no table service where we sat at the back. Food tasty but dry as over cooked. Steak was like an old boot and burger needed a pint of water to wash down. No etiquette, plates being removed as others were still eating then the rest of plates left on table until we left. The ladies needs attention with a sign to say occupied, new toilet roll holder and toilet roll. Nice quirky deco but will not be returning or recommending. Not value for money.

Nice food and good service. We had pizza and burger and chicken wings. Reasonable prices!and we were all stuffed. Twice cooked chips look really odd but they tasted nice. They had caramelised due to the way they’d been cooked so they were a really dark brown colour but they weren’t burnt. My OH loved his burger and it was huge. Pizza was lovely. It could have been a bit more done for my liking but it tasted nice and it was cooked through. Not the place to go if you’re looking for your healthy fix but lovely if you fancy something naughty.

First let down was not being obvious if were to wait to be seated or grab a table and then order. Next, the restaurant looked full to capacity but not many people eating. It was spot on 1pm and thought it was just a busy time. We sat ourselves down after asking do we need to be seated and the staff are all pleasant. Smiling and conversational. We ordered two Merthyr Monster Burgers and a small 6” Pizza for my granddaughter. We also ordered some drink and the drinks arrived promptly. I had a good view of the wood fired oven and it is very impressive and watched the pizzeria do his thing. We waited over 45 minutes for our pizza and two burgers. Other diners were quietly muttering how slow service was.

16oz Gammon was delicious and juicy, well presented and portion size was perfect. Prices are typical for this type of restaurant £10-15. Everything that came out of the kitchen looked delicious and well presented. I really think they should invest in soft drinks on tap because those puny bottles of coke don't quench anyone's thirst. Customer service was good but you could tell they wanted us gone as soon as we finished due to the copious amounts of asking if we required anything else. I recommend you book in advance or turn up early as it did get quite busy.

We visited twice and both times, service was very friendly and efficient. We had burgers the first time with home made ketchup (delicious!) and fries and onion rings. But their real specialty, as their name suggests, is hand made pizza, which we had on our second visit. The variety on offer was truly impressive—they even have vegan options. I had the buffalo mozzarella and sun dried tomato pizza which was top notch with a perfectly baked crust. Prices are very reasonable, too.

Really friendly staff, very welcoming and cozy place. Menu is ok, not much for vegetarians though. We also were a bit disappointed that there was no halloumi and therefore no salad - it would’ve been nice if an alternative salad could have been made. Beers were great, try the Afghan IPA. We paid 30 quid for 2 pizzas and drinks and a dessert. Not bad value as was tasty but could be better with a free nibble like olives, garlic toast or something to get the meal off to a start. Everyone likes a freebie!

It looked like a happening place , menu looked good ,service was good , prices were reasonable , I chose a Merthyr monster burger , which was a very tasty burger indeed , but the onion rings could of done with another 4or5 mins in oven , but the twice cooked chips were awful , i realise that certain types of potato aren't that brilliant for chips ,I even said it to the waitress , but she said they were always like it , I found that a bit sad , as it let down the meal in my view.

The staff were friendly and very efficient. Orders were taken promptly, and the food was delivered to the table shortly afterwards, with no lengthy wait. The desserts are truly scrumptious. Well worth a look if you need a quick bite to eat.

I have been to this restaurant a few times now and the staff and food are great. A good menu that caters for all. Staff are always helpful and extremely cheerful to you. If in Merthyr town centre then give it a go.

We dropped in on a Saturday night. We could tell it was popular as we had to wait 45 minutes for a table but that’s our fault for not booking.

Went here on Saturday night and it was great! Friends had pizza which they loved and I had the Merthyr Monster burger, I've been to the Hills in Brecon but I think this burger was better, really tasty. Our waitress was fantastic, really friendly. I highly recommend coming here. Can't wait till my next visit!

Recommended to come here by a friend and it didn't disappoint. From arrival where the girl behind the bar immediately acknowledged us and told us a waitress would be with us. Our waitress Jess was very welcoming and took us to the table, told us of the offers available and took our drinks order. We ordered pizza which was delicious, crispy and a good size - the base wasn't too doughy so next time i'll be able to manage one of the tasty looking sides that are available. We also added two pornstar martinis as buy one get one free was too go to pass on.... For dessert we chose the waffle which was again lovely, fresh and hot. As we left we were acknowledged again. it is so nice to have great service - nothing Jess did was over and above what i would expect but you just don't see it anymore - good service is hard to find and this restaurant has it spot on. Looking forward to my next visit.

Super gutted - used to be somewhere me and my gf would go for great food in a nice place - tonight was the third consecutive time they messed up the order (wrong food and wrong drinks)

Dined here on a quiet Monday night. Excellent service, the garlic bread was amazing. We all had steaks that were cooked to perfection. Nice cocktails to finish the meal. Highly recommended restaurant in Merthyr.

I only ever eat here during the day, and while the food itself is tasty IMO there always seems to be some sort of problem with logistics or supply. The air con is broke so the kitchen is closed, we haven't got any cans of coke or it just plain closed etc. etc.

I visited the Woodfired Pizza and kitchen whilst staying in the local area. I was impressed by the pizza I ordered - although I was a little surprised at being charged extra to amend the toppings on my pizza, considering that pizzas priced over £1 more expensive were included in the £5 Monday pizza deal. The food itself was delicious. Unfortunately, the experience was let down by very slow service after finishing my main course - I was waiting around 40 mins for my plate to be cleared and drinks/desserts to be offered. I was ignored by the waitress serving whilst trying to make eye contact on several occasions. Overall, I would recommend this location for the excellent pizza - just be prepared to wait to be served!

Four of us arrived at 6pm for a meal. Drinks order was taken pretty quick, the drinks aren't cheap. I ordered the goats cheese pizza, I like a thin crust but this was very thin, goats cheese was very sparse and beetroot not much better, better pizza from the supermarket. The fajitas were so so, the chicken salsa was just chicken and tomato sauce, no chilli at all. The hot dog with pulled pork was pretty good, as was the burger. We waited aged for food to arrive. Disappointing meal.

Nice place, but slow service, waited around an hour for food and that was a quiet Midweek afternoon! Chips were described as double cooked but looked burnt and were all in small bits, & warm at best. The burgers were undercooked for our liking, we didn’t send back as we’re had waited an hour. Gammon was ok with nice fresh pineapple but again came with the terrible chips. The pizza was the best item by far. Would not return. High prices for the quality on offer.

We had a pizza and a burger both of which were excellent. The pizzas were superb and made right in front of you in the open pizza oven. The burger was a good size and quality. They'd run out of double cooked chips which was a shame but the skinny fries were ok. Double Hendricks and Tonics were good value.

Came here after a day at Bike Park Wales and it was the perfect end to the day. Some great bottled beers available and the pizza I had was excellent - beautiful fresh dough and perfectly balanced toppings. This was a busy Saturday night but the service was excellent too. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Merthyr

We tried here for a family meal, we have children aged 5-9. Our visit was plagued with errors and we certainly won't be returning and will discourage others we know from doing so too. Like a vast majority of young children, mine are fairly picky with what they will eat. Having said that, we use restaurant trips as an opportunity for them to try some of mummy and daddy's in the hope that if they like it they will give it a go for themselves on a future visit. The chips are truly the worst I have ever seen or tasted. They came as standard with the children's meals which I feel is a big mistake. We know they also serve fries, because here were some in our dish of the awful chips, so why not make these the default with children's meals and have the double cooked chips as an option? (Just a suggestion) Anyway, suffice to say we hardly ate any of the chips.
