Red Dragon in Bridgend

Amazing staff yel was on point wish she worked for me! They all deserve a pay rise food was incredible only problem is need more beer mat's daf is a true gent and seems like he loves his job well done all

The chicken my wife had was a bit dry and over done .

Yelena provided a brilliant service when me and friends went to the red dragon for some drinks. Thank you for the good service

Lovely time tonight .booked for so s birthday so part of 12. Good was really quick even though they were busy as had another 2 big tables . Brill service

Such good value and service, meal was lovely, highly recommended.

Steak was one of the toughest I've had. Couldn't eat all of it. Tried, but gave up. Spoke to waitress, who immediately offered me a new steak, which I refused, due to being in a rush. I was then offered a refund, which I refused. I went there for a decent meal, not a cheap or free meal. This is the second time my steak meal was not edible. Maybe they should purchase quality meat, & not cheap meat, or maybe it's the chefs fault for not checking quality. Or maybe his/her cooking skills? Will not visit again soon.

We love this restaurant as it serves food all day, and we are always on the lookout for food at times when other places may not be serving. Staff are always very welcoming and polite. The food is very good, hot and tasty. Good portions.

Came today for a Sunday lunch, safe to say we were overly pleased the food was gorgeous and the Yorkshire puddings 🤤 say no more! Highly recommend Sunday lunch!

Came today for a Sunday lunch, safe to say we were overly pleased the food was gorgeous and the Yorkshire puddings 🤤 say no more! Highly recommend Sunday lunch! We paid a little more for our dinners as we added on a lot of extras 🫣 and had a few bevvies!

Faultless, food was exceptional on this visit. I left feedback at the bar for the kitchen staff.

Had a delicious fish and chips, the portion size was very generous. The staff was super lovely, especially Dafydd.

Had food here on the weekend, the food was great and the service was amazing. One of my friends requested so many changes to their burger and the server (Daf i think his name was) was kind enough to make sure the Chef got all the right changes and bring our food back quick considering how busy it was, had a great evening.

Pleasant enough service but the advertised dishes were only partially available in some cases though a few limited alternatives were offered. The fayre and the venue lacks interest and inspiration with a rather canteen approach to the table/seating arrangements. It needs a serious make-over.

Great food and drink in a relaxing atmosphere

Had a very pleasant experience here recently, made all the better by attentive members of staff. I was quite indecisive, but good drink recommendations by a bartender called Geraint made the night.

Stopped for food today. The service was excellent and food was delicious. Cannot rate this place enough.

Staff were very good, especially one of the bar staff Geraint who was very polite and enticed me to come back again.

I went here for food the other day and Ffion provided wonderful service and made the experience even better. 10/10 The food was also yummy.

Had a Sunday dinner here. Staff were extremely accommodating even though I had not made a booking. Food was excellent with plenty of food, pub was bustling and service was amazing throughout our meal. Highly recommend

We have had Sunday diner back in August and 3 -4 meals different days of the week All been absolutely amazing can not fault it at all Service is fantastic as always nothing never to much trouble Casey is amazing member of staff

The food was amazing, the service was fast and the staff were chatty. The parking in the pub is good as well. Would definitely recommend.

The best Sunday dinner around. Service was amazing and lovely staff Would 100% recommend

Went here last week for a quick birthday meal with my mum, the food was amazing and the staff were friendly and helpful. It was a lovely atmosphere.

Staff were lovely and welcoming. Food was lovely

Amazing atmosphere lovely service

Friday afternoon, very nice not to busy nice atmosphere. Food arrived relativity quickly and was very well cooked.

First time here in a few years Food was good although it's gone expensive , chicken a little dry and could use more sauce Chip portions were very small for £3 ... One son had to double up and glad he did Nice staff though

Had a Fantastic meal up the Red Dragon.The Service was fantastic and the Staff was superb especially Maddi Ellis. Highly Recommended xx

Over all very happy with food drink and staff friendly would highly recommend

6 of us visited yesterday for lunch (Saturday). Abnormally quiet for this pub, used to be very popular. Our food was below average, my jacket potato had to be returned as the spud was cold. My son's steak went cold whilst waiting for the peppercorn sauce to the point where I re-ordered the meal in full. My father waited forever for extra gravy for his sausage and mash which never arrived. Needless to say I wanted to speak to the Manager but was told instead that the steak meal and sausage and mash meal would be refunded in full. I do not blame the young girls working front of house, they are the unlucky staff that have to deal with us customers. It's the chefs that produce these low quality meals and present them cold. Like I said before, it wasn't busy there so the kitchen would not have been under pressure. I had booked online a party of 14 of us for Sunday 8th September, needless to say I asked the young lady at the bar to cancel it. I will not be returning to eat here and would not recommend the food. As a bar it's a lovely place to drink, the outside area is pleasant and well kept. It's a real shame as prior to the management being taken over this pub was a delight to dine in with real good food.

Food was delicious, the service was fast, nice clean pub and friendly staff! Will certainly have food here again!

Great ambience and service. Only disappointing thing was we ordered 3 fish&chips, 2 off the lunch menu (lighter bites) and one off main. They all came out the same size which was great if you were paying £8.95 but not if you were paying £13.99. Overall a nice lunch out so thankyou to the team.

Been going there for a number of years went there with the wife not so long ago and had the large mixed grill, pretty quiet in there at the time but unfortunately service was very slow, eventually had food and it was the most dreadful plate of food I have ever had, the sausages were deep fried and over cooked, steak was really tough like boot leather and to top it off the gammon was mainly raw, called the waitress over and she agreed and said that gammon should never have been served, she went and showed the staff behind the bar and all I was offered was a lousy drink for free, I left nearly three quarters of the food as i could not eat it it was that bad, what a waste of money but heyho won't be going back there again what a total shambles

Our party consisted of 3 adults, one of whom was in a wheelchair. The disabled access has really be thought about as the gradient is perfect for wheelchairs and the entrance and table was very accessible. The food and service were very good. No complaints at all. Would definitely go there again and I would recommend the place to friends.

Lovely recent visit here, great food and our server Cassie couldn’t have been more helpful. Highly recommend

Food and staff very good indeed ! Was served by a young smiling girl called Cassie, a credit to the pub ! Green Fox

Good food in nice surroundings, what’s not to like! Thanks to the lovely Cassie also, perfect service!

Fabulous food and service. A great atmosphere in the pub which is helped by the friendly staff. We were served by a lovely young girl Cassie who was excellent. Will certainly be back.

We have had the pleasure of visiting the Red Dragon on Many occasions. During my recent visit the food was excellent as always, this was made even better due to the outstanding service from the young lady Cassie who couldn't do enough for us. All businesses would benefit from the professional attitude as the young lady showed.

Been many of times over the last get months. Meals are always delicious. Staff very friendly and helpful Lady cassie who works there couldn't do enough for us. She's a credit to your company

What a beautiful Sunday lunch here last week so tasty . A lovely girl called cassie served us So polite and friendly, definitely be back soon.

Had a beautiful Sunday lunch served by the very professional Cassie. 10/10

Fantastic night here, food and drinks reasonably priced and Cassie the young girl who served us deserves a special mention, what an asset to the team!!

Lovely looking pub from the outside soon very inviting we had a warm warm welcome all the staff are lovely the young lads who served us were very polite and kind and chatty. However, the food was very averaged, same old marstons and brains food. Nice atmosphere, Nice staff, Nice building but wouldn’t have food here again

Quality service and food as always

Absolutely amazing Sunday cooked dinner. Delicious with great portions and great value. Will 100% recommend to anyone.

Went above and beyond to ensure i had a hot drink. Even when the coffee machine was not working.

Asked for quiet table away from children which we were given. Food arrived piping hot and well presented. Staff were friendly and helpful - asked several times if I meals were satisfactory. Toilets were clean . Definitely worth a visit - typical 'pub grub' - but was cooked well and not swimming in fat

Friendly helpful staff very nice food and good serving size.

Attended Sunday 28th July at 2 pm, was surprised how quiet it was as previous visits it was jam packed with Gareth Thomas there. The Sunday lunch beef meal was lovely but lacking garden peas in the veg , a bit different to the previous Sunday lunches I’ve had several at the Red Dragon , so assume they either have new owners or a new chef. The Menu cards on display also seem different now since my last visit. The Red Dragon Litchard is a regular place we eat as a couple and with my family . Wasn’t fussy on the space at table 10 on this visit, But that’s what was allocated to us. Always friendly staff and bookable tables via the app, think these are new staff as none of the usual who were there previously were serving on this visit. Nice choice of refreshing drinks on tap. We will visit again and see what their standards of other choices on the menu .

Really good however being under staffed meant the service was a bit slow .

The Red Dragon has never failed me. Despite leaving Bridgend over 32 years ago, it’s still where I head to for a good family meal, and drinks. As well as great value, there’s always a relaxed , homely feel. I highly recommend the Sunday lunch & hunters chicken !

We booked several days ago for Sunday at 5pm because we still had a 30% voucher to use. That morning, I had a phone call to ask if we could arrive by 4.45pm but didn't say why. I agreed, assuming it was because they were busy. However, when we got there we were told the kitchen was closing at 5pm and we had to order straight away. Our order was taken wrongly for our daughter but by the time it arrived and we explained, we were told it couldn't be changed, although we could have a free child's dessert. The bar staff were rude throughout and made it clear they wanted to go home. They were clearing our table of menus and things while we were still eating. Really disappointed. We're very local but don't think we'd risk going there again for a while. Really poor and would expect better.

Poor vegetarian options and what was available not as described on menu

Hadn't been for years and the group decided to come here. Pudding was the best part of my meal.

I’ve given this pub a wonderful review before now. But, not anymore. I looked up the Sunday lunch menu on the website. So we knew what to expect. Well, the thin bit of paper menu didn’t match up with the online menu at all. I ended up having a starter as a main as there’s was nothing I could eat apart from the veggie chilli (I unfortunately don’t like spices). My son wanted the ultimate burger. But, that wasn’t an option all they had was a cowboy burger which looked dry. There were no deserts available on the menu either. Very disappointed and won’t be returning. We had to go and have food from elsewhere. Please don’t put online a lovely and extensive menu, if the one you offer isn’t the same.

Absolutely fantastic food and a great atmosphere pub. We go practically every week. Best food and pub in Bridgend especially now that Gareth has taken it over Excellent value for money service brilliant by all staff!! Everyone so friendly and everyone needs to taste their Sunday lunch don’t go for the biggest portion you’ll never eat it all 🤣 A big thank you to Mr Gareth Thomas and all of his staff but please can I leeke and potato sausages 🤣 see you tomorrow Claire Hayes xx

New landlord and I’d say even better atmosphere and service. Bar and waiting staff very efficient and friendly. We had a meal Friday evening. Was so impressed we returned Saturday rather than cooking. Looking forward to seeing a good singer there on a Saturday which is always a good night. We will be back. Keep up the good work

Staff were amazing. Food was lovely

My Mum and I had a beautiful beef dinner at the Red Dragon in Litchard this Sunday,its the best roast dinner we have ever had out,it was delicious in taste,thick cut tender beef slices,cabbage,carrots,broccoli,mash,new potato,roast potato, gravy,with and extra gravy boat,and a huge Yorkshire pudding, everything was cooked to perfection, we would definitely recommend and we will be going back,great service and nice happy staff.

Lovely meal. 3 of us had different starters, mains and desserts and couldn't fault a thing. Staff were very friendly. Place was clean. We'll definitely come back

Friendly and helpful staff. Great food and a good variety of options available on the menu. Ample parking and comfortable surrounding in the dining area. Really enjoyed.

We were a party of 4 and change last minute to 6. Staff was amazing... meals were delicious. Can't wait to come back.... Thank you Red dragon......

Very friendly staff. Food was delicious.Will definitely be returning. Have recommended to my friends and family.

Excellent Sunday roast, very friendly staff

Food was really nice , staff was friendly and helpful, nice atmosphere, sport on tv

Our local when we visit the in-laws. Always friendly and helpful staff and good food. Reliable offerings that are decently priced. Tonight the chef was even willing to customize some things for us and even came out to chat to us. Always a good time to be had here!

Had food here yesterday,, we had the steak,cooked to perfection and really tasty, looked over to the next table who where eating Sunday lunch and it looked amazing 😋will definitely have to go back to sample that, lovely staff also 👍

We were just three two sisters and one of their daughters on a catch-up as living opposite ends of Wales a nice cosy experience with chance to chat. Nice and quiet. Service brilliant.

Very friendly staff our first visit for our Anniversary and they have very generous food servings too! Polite, curtious, and very welcoming!

Great fast service, food amazing, and variety and value ,atmosphere great

Amazing pub, always a lovely atmosphere. Food always looks and smells amazing. Staff are lush. Can't fault the place at all

7 customers sat a table fantatic service

Stunning food and they are very nice and kindly thanks for the birthday singing

There were 8 off us, as we were having a birthday meal. And the staff were really polite and respectful. The food was amazing. I will be definitely coming back soon and telling my friends and family to go here. Well done

From stepping into the red dragon our experience was top notch! It was clearly a busy lunchtime but everyone made us feel welcome and important to them! My friend and our two granddaughters aged 12 visited and we all had a lovely time! The food was served within a perfect time with friendly smiles and nice attention. The meals themselves were amazing! As a diabetic vegetarian I usually have the house salad with bbq cauliflower wings in marstons restaurants and I can honestly say the red dragons was by far the best I have had ! Well done everyone we will be back soon !

Booking was really easy online, There was 10 of us for my son's 21st birthday. When we got there the table was ready, staff very friendly and efficient. Food was absolutely stunning, good portions and came out hot. I will definitely be returning. Thank you all.

Lovely food. Great place to eat.

Asked for a round table for 6 away from children which we were given. Waiters were attentive but not intrusive. Food was well cooked, piping hot and presented well. We did feel towards the end of our visit that we had out stayed our welcome!

A group of 16 adults and 4 children just had food from the Sunday menu. The food was excellent. The service was first class. The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was great. A good time had by all.

A warm, inviting atmosphere, excellent variety of dining options and great value and quality.

Amazing food, amazing staff and great atmosphere and excellent value for money

Called in on lunchtime quite busy ordered food great for a lunchtime nice atmosphere

Fantastic experience,lovely welcome at the bar,great food,fish was huge,very fresh and served hot,an all round excellent experience,will definitely be returning.

Very nice service, quick and helpful, staff were nice and the place was interactive. The food was delicious and drinks were lovely

The best pub dinners in town. And always piping hot, Staff behind the bar and the girls bringing food to the table are amazing, Always checking you have everything you need. You can't get better value than the red dragon with those portions. Will be back

Fab pub the Sunday lunch was lovely well done Alfie and staff

Staff lovely, only given an hour for the table and eat our food from when we sat down which was disappointing. Food ok but nothing special, what you would expect form pub meal. very busy and loud, wouldn't recommend young children in the evenings.

Staff were very friendly. Food was very tasty and service was very quick.

I'm a wheelchair user and I booked a table for myself and 2 friends, asking for accessible seating. I couldn't fault the service and helpfulness of all the staff. The food was lovely - boiling hot and really tasty. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and will definitely be returning in the near future.

Lovely lunch, nice food, nice friendly helpful staff. Recommend fish & chips off main menu.

Really good food and attentive staff members,lovely choice of meals and drinks and even better an 8pm quiz to join in with, we had a birthday cake for one of our family and such a wonderful moment for her when the lit cake was brought out...well done Red Dragon we will defiantly keep returning, a local pub atmosphere with top notch food and drinks, whats not to love 🙌

Verry nice food very helpful staff

Lovely staff, amazing food, great value for money, clean ad a buzzing atmosphere. Really lovely evening

The staff are very friendly and helpful. Tables were cleared regularly even as they were busy. We ordered food and drink which was serve promptly and hot. The food was delicious and served with a smile. The only slight downside was my husband asked for no peas with his mixed grill but they were on the plate. We didn’t complain he smothered them in brown sauce and ate them lol.

Hade Sunday dinner veg was frozen not fresh dinner halfed cooked worse I have hade really disappointed never going for Sunday dinner again but staff amazing excellent service and fast

A lovely welcoming atmosphere, staff were friendly and very helpful. For a mid week the place was pretty busy, and there was a steady flow of customers. After placing our orders there wasn't a long wait from payment to table. They were very prompt. The meals served were hot and well presented, on hot plates. I didn't actually want anything from the menu, but was able to request something entirely different (all from the extras menu) we weren't made to feel hurried at all, even after our meal had finished, and the drinks flowed.

Fab lunch time with friends and thank you Gareth “ Alfie” Thomas for chatting wih us . Lovely staff , great food , comfortable suroundings and great ambience .
