Poundffald Inn in Swansea

Popped in for an impromptu Monday visit after a long day at work. Staff were very friendly, the portions generous, well priced, and most importantly, tasty! Conversation in the car turned to "this pub is one I'd move house to be closer to" (about an hours walk currently). 100% is worth a visit if you're in the area.

Rung on the chance they could fit a family of 9 in after been to pick pumpkins. Not a problem, food was excellent and staff very accommodating even thobvery busy. Lovely day .

Got to be up there with one of the worst places we have visited for food. The food was horrendous, they served a chicken which was undercooked and pink inside to a table with a 10 month old baby. The service well even worse, they should have a massive sign on the door saying babies/children not welcome because they hated the fact that our young baby was a bit upset while waiting for food to arrive (very normal for babies). No customer service at all , not one person served us with a smile and the staff looked very unapproachable. To think with the pumpkin field across the road where loads of babies and children come to visit this place would be very child friendly. Maybe you can only be from around the area or a regular to be served with a smile in this place. The regulars even muttering comments about a baby being there and made us feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome.

Really good, friendly pub. Food always good, nothing pretentious, just excellent pub food. Excellent friendly service, one of our favourites.

I ordered pie and chips with a side of cheesy chips. The chips were under cooked the cheesy chips were also undercooked and tasteless. The steak& Ale pie lacked flavour.This was by far the worst meal I have had in years. I ordered Rhubarb crumble which was a disaster, it was goo in covered in custard. We were with friends who paid for our meal so I didn’t like to complain

We are in Wales this week. We had lunch - bar person did not tell us we had to order at bar. Food adequate but service poor - I had glass Merlot - the dregs of one bottle poured into my glass followed by top up from new bottle Noticeable that the staff were not Welsh- if they had have been we are convinced that they would have been more friendly

We eat regularly at this proper local pub, complete with friendly locals. The food is always great and now comes with daily specials.Last visit I had fresh locally caught sea bass at a very reasonable price,oh and the beer and staff are great and the pub is dog friendly in the bar or the beer garden.

APPAULED on how the landlord/landlady served alcoholic drinks to local customers knowing they were driving from there , up to 10 pints one drunk and I am told it is a regular thing , NOT A PLACE TO TAKE FAMILY FOR SURE

Had mixed grill, very good and proper chips and plenty on plate, brilliant service, good choice of drink. Regulars in the bar all friendly to.

Fantastic meal and outstanding service. Highly recommended.

Fantastic meal and outstanding service. Highly recommended.

THIS IS THE MOST TRUTHFUL REVIEW OF THE ESTABLISHMENT I HOPE IT HELPS THOSE WITH SIMILAR CONCERNS AS MYSELF !!! Found it to be very poor tbh with you , poor service standard ish food , was APPAULED with the landlords watching regulars drinking up to 10 pints of beer and watching them drive home , They should be ashamed of themselves , I strongly DO NOT recommend this place , PROFIT IS PUT BEFORE OUR CHILDREN SAFETY !!! There was young children present yet it still didn’t deter the landlords from ENCOURAGING DRINK DRIVING !!! THE PLACE IS A DISGRACE !!!

Food very good great staff well done

Had a great night in the Poundffald while staying in the are for work, very welcoming, great good and a fine pint of Guiness. Highly recommend.

Staff great, customers very friendly, everyone superb with my dogs. The food was terrible, reheated fries, so soft and grim. I ordered a Greek salad, it was peppers, lambs lettuce and a few whole small tomatoes, on top a pot of very cheap olives were thrown and some bits of Feta, I suggest the chef looks up how to make a Greek salad, believe me lambs lettuce does not feature. The dressing was also brown and disgusting. So disappointing.

Brilliant pub, brilliant food and the staff are also brilliant!! Proper pub grub - really enjoyed!

Great food and staff were brilliant

Had Sunday lunch & really impressed. The veggie/vegan option was delicious. The food was plentiful. Staff were super friendly & service was great. 100% will be going back.

Had lunch with a friend. Chicken and bacon salad and a Greek salad. It was delicious

First time my wife and I have been to the pub for years. On a strong recommendation we decided to try out the Sunday lunch. What a delight! We decided on the slow cooked beef and so glad we did. I'll tell you what it's NOT. It's not skinny sliced, not rare and not tough. Probably the most tender and tasty beef we have ever had, accompanied by a plentiful varied selection of vegetables. This is NOT so called 'gastro' cooking, just traditionally served unfussy quality food. The meats are locally sourced and I can recommend accompanying with a fine pint of Butty Bach and a glass of Inch's cider. We'll certainly be returning soon. Yahoo Mail: Search, organise, conquer

Had a lovely meal last night plenty of food all good quality with real chips ,waitress was brilliant ,will definitely be back

Very welcoming, food portions large. Nice little pub.

This evening four of us had very good meals and a few drinks in a very welcoming place.

It was very quiet which obviously made atmosphere low key, but staff excellent

we just walked in no booking accommodated us even though preparing for a xmas party. Staff service excellent very friendly easy access (had elderly mother withus). Will return again

Sunday lunch for 11 of us today amazing food, amazing service.

Excellent service and enjoyable meal. Thank you.

Friendly, warm welcome and delicious food

Went with family to get together .We all had Sunday lunch .Highly recommended .You have to book and pay a deposit .

A proper pub with proper beer. 8 of us sat down to a decent Sunday roast. Everyone enjoyed it. A nice afternoon nap would have been ideal, but we had to hit the road. Thanks to the team at The Poundffald Inn for making us feel so welcome.

Family's favourite place to eat. The service is always welcoming, and the food is great. Good range of options from pub classics to vegetarian. Everyone always enjoys their meals and the portions are good. The kids prefer here to chain restaurants that typically cater better to children, because the home cooked food is much better and the staff are great with them. The pub interior is charming and cosy, and the food is reasonably priced. Hope they keep doing what they're doing as it's a winner.

We didn't eat, just called in for a drink. A great pub with friendly staff and good beer.

The best Sunday lunch.Beautiful views.Lovely staff.Couldn't do enough for us.Will definitely go back

A lovely Inn. Great food and pleasant staff.

Fabulous Sunday dinner a must visit

Haven't had food yet, although we have booked Sunday lunch this weekend. Lovely atmosphere, kind and friendly staff and the locals are even nicer! Hidden gem!

Sunday lunch is well worth a visit.

Lovely friendly staff and food is excellent quality

Very nice food and good service. Parking is good too.

Nice traditional pub, local craft ales. Very welcoming atmosphere

Extremely welcoming and the dogs appreciated all the biscuits !

Nice place, warm atmosphere, food could be nicer for what you're paying but it wouldn't put me off coming back

Nice beer garden friendly service. Parking round the back was okay. Bit of colourful language by some customers but it was okay just banter I guess. Food looked good but not eaten there yet.

Had a beautiful Sunday lunch, I was 30 minutes late, no problem at all. The food was amazing, staff extremely polite and helpful. Will definitely return 👌🏻

Excellent service.good choice of menu. Food was piping hot . Unlike some of the big chain restaurants. Will certainly recommend and will be back. Mine host was very obliging the service was excellent.

Good was excellent lovely local pub atmosphere, felt right at home.

Great Sunday lunch. Great service, very friendly. Will definitely be returning.

Lovely pub, friendly staff and great prices

Great service and good atmosphere thanks

Basic but tasty food. Service good and not over priced Will return

Yes lived in Dunvant in 1966/67 and had not visited since then. The pub is charming, warm (very important at the moment) and the staff very obliging. Although we did not eat it was noted that food was very reasonably priced. Thoroughly enjoyable experience. Go on treat yourself.

Great food, wonderful staff, lovely atmosphere, cosy venue

Staff attentive and polite. Wide choice on menu. Generous portions. Very good value.

Always a great place for dinner

Great little pub, nice food and nice staff good price

Nice to be in a pub that is popular with drinkers and food fans.

Beautiful food..lovely warm welcome

Absolutely disgraceful pub. Never experienced such racism. Don’t touch it with a barge pole! We were going to have a drink and a meal but were clearly not welcome with our young baby and dog. Ashamed of our Welsh heritage!! 😡😡

Lovely, friendly and welcoming. Food is delicious... well worth a visit, you won't be disappointed

I only gave one star as it was needed to write a review. I am disgusted by the experience we had as a family with a young baby in this ‘family friendly’ pub. The locals took exception to the fact that we were ‘English’ and made it clear they did not welcome us having a baby with us. I cannot believe that the Welsh can be so narrow minded in this day and age. We were made so unwelcome we had to leave. To make matters worse, when ee called the pub to make a complaint, they couldn’t have cared less .

popped in today after we got caught in the rain, met with the friendliest service and the breakfast was amazing! will definitely be coming back :)

Lost its village pub feel only had drinks looked at the menu looked expensive

Food was great and staff were very welcoming. Overall great experience.

Pleasant pub which serves a good range of food. Efficient staff. Lots of parking space.

Good variety of ales and the food is superb and brilliant night with guilty pleasure thoroughly enjoyed

Ticks every box. Very friendly pub and pleasant attentive staff. We had two meals here and wish we'd found it earlier. Supurb food and very reasonable prices. You wont better The Poundffald

Good selection of drinks and food looked amazing.

Bank holiday Sunday, full roast dinner with 6veg and potatoes. Very nice food, pleasant staff and a very quick service

Called for lunch with my husband won't be rushing back alot of flies around the tables landing on our food which was very poor

Popular pub on Gower serving tasty great value food. It was busy when we visited for Sunday lunch. Our roast dinners arrived quickly and we enjoyed our meal.

Friendly local with great staff and locals. Can't wait to go back and try out the food

Book for the first time at thePoundffald inn for Sunday lunch, excellent service and friendly staff and the Sunday lunch was amazing can't wait to go back, very highly recommended, thanks for a warm welcome

Lovely food as usual great staff and service cockles and laverbread best anywhere ( possibly my own better?) seriously great place

Off the cuff visit due to Ironman road closures. Welcomed with friendly staff, we sat in the beer garden and had a Sunday lunch. Collectively had beef, turkey and kids portion - empty plates only. Highly recommend!

2nd time here, but for me, doesn't feel very welcoming

Best breakfast I've had in years many many years cockles and laver bread amazing and fresh sausages, iand seen them in a long time ,no frozen rubbish, and the crispness of that fried bread ,I'll be back soon

Popped in to try the new breakfast menu offered until 12pm. I was not disappointed, I went for the Welsh breakfast and it was a very good portion including cockles, laverbread, sausage, bacon, eggs, tomatoes, beans and mushrooms toast was also included. The service was quick and efficient and only set me back £7.95. I would wholeheartedly recommend a morning visit to this secluded village pub.

Staying in the area for 3 nights where it's quite remote so didn't have any other option of eating close to home that night. Very pleased to say this is a little gem. Very busy when we arrived with all tables reserved. The barman was super busy but very good and found us a table and everyone was friendly and efficient. The food itself was very good pub grub! Would recommend.

Great pub with great atmosphere. Had a family meal and we all enjoyed. I will definitely be back.

Very welcoming and the food was excellent

Overall, this is a lovely pub with lovely fresh food sourced locally. My family and I have eaten here a few times and it's never been a bad meal. I'm only dropping a star because the vegetables were a little overcooked and dry.

Been here a few times and it's always reliable. This time it was even better. The food was excellent and the service, as always, was first-class. There was a slight downside in that the people in the bar were a bit raucous and could be overhead in the lounge, swearing loudly. Not bothered for myself but we had grandkids with us so felt a bit uncomfortable.

Great Sunday lunch, loads of veg and lovely selection of pudding

Sunday dinner fantastic go there well done

Fantastic homemade Sunday lunch served by friendly staff.

Amazing food, lovely atmosphere and welcoming staff. Can't fault this place - one of my firm favourites! Sunday lunch is brilliant but so are their everyday meals - plus REAL chips (always a winner)!!

Great little pub . Good beers , great food . Friendly staff

Good crowd of local people, staff are helpful and friendly.... Also lovely food, Nothing negative to say really

Cheerful friendly staff, good atmosphere. Decent pub food. Good live music.

Lovely atmosphere, staff so friendly and helpful, highly recommended 😀

Absolutely fantastic country pub amazing food & lovely staff, what more could you want on a stormy day

Delicious food & great service, a lovely experience

New Landlord and Landlady, much improved. Good selection of pub grub, well cooked and plenty of it! Good selection of real ales, lagers and wine. Recommended. Update ..Still good😀

Lovely food and staff ....thank you 🍷

Great place to visit. Locals are great and staff are fantastic

Sunday lunch was recommended by friends and it did not disappoint. We had 6 different vegetables along with roast potatoes and a roast parsnip. If I had to complain, the Yorkshire pudding was flat and tasteless but I'm not a fan of them anyway. This is very much a pub, so no frills but the food is very good with well priced wine. Most enjoyable.

Nice food and nice welcome Good beer choices

Free parking, Old style deco. Friendly staff very fast service. Average prices. Great for families. Disabled access available.

Nice home cooked food in a throw back pub.
