Temple Bar Inn in Pembrokeshire

More of a seaside bar than a pub, food all day is a big bonus. Good choice of food, including basic pub food and Thai curries, so all the family were happy. A bit noisy on the Saturday night we visited, but liked it enough that we went again midweek and was a bit more laid back, but still busy due to a quiz night (think it's bingo on Tues, quiz on Wed). Good service. Got the impression that inside was mainly locals, but as tourists we were welcomed in along with many others sitting outside enjoying the last of the sun and the view of the sea.

Good food, lovely staff, great location. Landlady is Thai, we think, and her Thai Green Curry IS THE BEST WE'VE EVER HAD!!! So tasty. Steve at the bar is a great bloke. Very friendly and welcoming. Games room for kids, ample seating inside and out. Great views. Fabulous pub 😁👍

Popped in this evening as the outside area at our first choice was full. We haven't been in here before in the evening only for lunch sarnies. Our meal was lovely, we will certainly be back. Wife wasn't very hungry so she had a 9" pizza, I had the gammon. All piping hot, well cooked and a decent price. Gammon came with two eggs and a pineapple slice. Thank you We'll be back

Was lovely to find somewhere that's served all day and with a variety of foods. Glad I got more than one choice of vegetarian meals. Vegetarian lasagna & Gammon Side if cheesy chips.

Great food. Great staff and great value for money. Been going here for 12 years now and it's a brilliant pub. Dog friendly which is a big hit with holiday folk.

Glad to go back again ,always very good .The welcome ,the food and the charity bingo on Tues evening.Love Amroth and Temple bar ,can't wait for next hol.

ate here a couple of times over xmas as we stayed in an apartment within the building complex, we and our little dog were made to feel welcome. The drinks and food were good and we can't wait to visit again this xmas.

The place to go excellent service and food .Will defo be going again.lt is an excellent pub and also love the Tues night bingo ALL for charity.

Absolutely terrible place would never recommend to anyone, the food was undercooked and no taste, the bar needs a good refurb because it absolutely stinks 😷.

Annual visit to this excellent pub. Friendly service and comfort food which is always well served and tasty. Dogs very welcome, which is great as my little one adores the place and the fuss she gets!! Good service, good grub and a welcome always - what more could one want?

Stopped for lunch on a rainy day, staff were cheerful and up beat, ordered the fish and chips, outstanding, batter was lovely and crispy and plenty of it too WOW, didnt need supper that day, really good pint too will be back very soon!!

Ordered three fish and one scampi and when it arrived the one fish was fairly ok but not brilliant. One fish was cool inside and the other was not cooked inside. Took them back and eventually returned with the same fish which we sent straight back to be returned later with the original salad and chips obviously just been microwaved. Sent them back and had new fish but still with original salad and chips. Even then not a very good fish. Will definitely not be returning. 👎👎👎

Shocking! Very dismissive of new customers. They seemed put out by us even being there, as we weren’t local. I’ve been coming to this area for over 40 years, it’s always been the same. I would say take your business elsewhere like the Amroth Arms or bars in saundersfoot and Tenby, this place is not good at all, sticky carpets and cheap food !

Ate here while on holiday Thai dishes to die for portions very generous.very quick service pleasant and helpful staff

Excellent food and service i would recommend the temple bar to anyone wanting food the food was delicious and tasty try it sometime

Dinner with my wife and 3 grandkids. Food was excellent, big portions and quick but freshly cooked. Staff are very friendly. Will be back later in the week to try the Thai menu.

Not sure where some of the people who have reviewed the food here normally eat but they need to get out more. Canteen cafeteria standard basic grub in a dated in need of decoration and a refit bar. Amroth really needs a great restaurant! This isn’t it. I think my average star rating was quite generous. ps the Tomato Ketchup ain’t Heinz!

Great family meal, large portion and plenty to choose from the menu. The food was freshly cooked and really tasty. Definitely worth a visit when in Amroth.

Visited Sunday 26/03/23.Friendly welcoming polite young lad behind the bar,food arrived promptly and was well presented,plentiful and tasty.My husband had the burger and chips and I had a beautiful tuna/sweetcorn baguette.We will definitely be back

My wife and I had a lazy lunch in the sunshine at the Temple Bar. The food was lovely, I had a cheese burger and my wife had the scampi, they were both tasty, hot and well presented. We also had a very nice bottle of wine. Our bill came to under £40 which in todays cost of living crisis is a bargain. If I had one slight niggle it would be that the lads at the bar don't seem to look like they enjoy their work, but when you get talking to them they're fine.

Stopped here for a drink and lunch. Very disappointed at the portion sizes and quality of food. We felt very much that we were being ripped off. £7 for chilli nachos that were no bigger than our hand and £5.50 for a specials board chicken kebab which turned out to be 3 pieces of chicken on a skewer. Such a shame as it could really be a nice place being located so close to the beach. I think the owners need to think more about their value for money! We left very hungry!

Welcoming Dog friendly cafe. Food excellent. Cawl wow. On the seafront. Free parking opposite and charging car park at the rear. Blue badge parking on seafront. Accessible toilet on seafront and it's always very clean. A must visit.

After travelling decided to visit here for a meal.Service was swift,food plentiful but nothing special

Always had good food here. Warm friendly staff, very helpful. Mikey, the dog, is the star attraction. Very well tempered and likes to be stroked.

Mikey the Golden Retriever ' Meets & greets' his customers in a very professional manner. He has a very smart appearance, well groomed & explains to all Doggy visitors how to be well behaved ensuring Humans enjoy their fab Breakfast. Lovely food, Great Staff, felt...

Down to earth drinks food and service. Dog friendly and welcoming staff. Decent menu and wait time good. Nice view to beach

Temple Bar Inn is in a fantastic location overlooking the coast and it has a nice covered area in springtime when its nice to in the sun, but too cold to be outside. The food and the service were not inspiring, but it was a...

A really nice friendly place where the owner makes you really welcome dog friendly too a bonus will definitely return

We ate here as it was the only place open in Amroth on a Sunday night. The food is standard pub grub and to be fair to the Temple Bar, it doesn't pretend to be anything it's not. The cod fillets were nice and tasty...

Stopped in on a very blowy day for lunch. Well priced food and a lovely glassed frontage to be able to watch the sea. Great service

Have been going here for years - always a warm welcome and piles of food for a good price. It may not be a smart cosmopolitan London restaurant or serve haute cuisine - but for the price and the lovely service - one couldn’t ask...

Welcoming Dog friendly cafe. Jacket potatoes plus a wide range of meals. Open in winter. Toilet not accessible but just outside there is an accessible toilet open all year on Radar key. Staff very nice. Resident Dog really nice.

Drinks reasonable. Bottle of wine £12 and good price for pint. This is not pub food. Pub prices, sadly with a snack bar feel. Pizza is clearly a Tesco value for £9! Prawns and pasta came in a soup bowl. The only lovely thing about...

The restaurant was very dog friendly in all areas. The food was simple but with good portions and at a reasonable price. The staff were friendly and helpful. In a good position overlooking the sea.

Visited the Temple Bar as a family of seven. We ordered around of drinks to be told there was in fact no larger ; like going to the chippy with no chips. Games room filled with ignorant people more intent in smoking by the side...

Beautiful view over the bay. Needs updating. Food was basic. Beef burgers not great quality although chips were ok.

found templebar to be clean staff friendly we had fish and chips, which was ok free parking across the road

We have been to the Temple bar inn in Amroth whilst on holiday before and it’s been great , so thought we would go again this year . Well you guys didn’t disappoint us . We visited on the 23rd and 30th August 2021 ....

I’m not normally one to complain, I have been going to the temple bar for many years and I would say that the ownership recently has changed. We as a family called there this Sunday lunch time as I being relatively local. I ordered the...

Always good food, and friendly staff. We always have the Nachos. Dog friendly too. We've been many times

After reading some of the recent negative reviews I have to completely disagree with them. My family has eaten here many times over the last two summers during Covid restrictions and have never had a bad meal or a bad experience here. Yes, it's a...

Had a lovely evening meal after a pleasant walk along the beach front.. Very nice meal.polite and friendly staff..would recommend this place, definitely good pub grub.....well done

Groups of friends visiting on a very wet and windy day. Covid has been thought about but the look of the bar hasn't. Average food..... burger wasn't nice.... crawl was good, as was ham, egg and chips. Toilets are grim and the whole place is...

Poor quality all round. If you want cheap food this is your place but we won't be going back. Fish n Chips should have been listed as batter and chips. Fish inside, what there was, was a very small portion, way overcooked and mushy coated...

We visited when you were only able to eat outside due to COVID restrictions. It was all well set up. We had a great welcome from everyone with really prompt service. The choice of both drinks and meals is great. Portion sizes are good. Great...

Felt totally safe, their COVID measures are excellent. Friendly, efficient service and tasty bacon roll. Pot of tea was great, hot and strong. Good value for money.

Stopped here after walking from Saundersfoot. Lovely place for refreshments, and larger meals. Very impressed with Covid arrangements.

Walked from Saundersfoot to Amroth during our holiday in September. First place we come across is here. Full English was required and the price was good. Tables outside socially distanced so what was there not to like.............. ..............I know you get what you pay for...

Visited early evening, had Thai green curry - but really it just seemed like chicken & veg microwaved and a very thin Thai curry sauce poured over. Whilst sauce was spicy , the flavour wasn't really there. Portion size was very good. Strange atmosphere though,...

Living in Narberth we visit here often, it’s in a wonderful position looking over the ocean. This establishment is so welcoming and friendly with our black standard poodle also. We visited on a Wednesday evening last week for a lovely fish and chip meal, and...

We are up ludchurch very often to our caravan and always pop down the temple bar for afternoon drinks and food,great place to eat and drink,and although Covid plays a burden with everyone it seems temple bar has got it well sorted,big signs everywhere to...

My daughter spent time each day this week using the wifi to help with her assignments, enjoying a hot chocolate or two, and maybe sausages and chips. It was really kind of the landlord to let her do this. Thank you. Very sensible Covid precautions in place,very important at this time when too many people seem to take it for granted. Breakfasts are very good. On the last day I ordered the gammon. Bad news - you didn't get a choice of either eggs or pineapple ring like in most restaurants. Good news - you get 'em both! Best chips in Amroth, too.I recommend Temple Bar - and Amroth - a great place.

Went here for first time and definitely won’t be returning. Just had drinks then decided to order a light bite for lunch. Ordered Tuna/sweet corn mayo baguette with a side of chips, really can’t go wrong with that??? so I thought. Meal arrived, horrible bland pale tasteless frozen chips. Salad was non existent without any dressing, hardly any mayo with tuna and no sweet corn to be seen either, very poor indeed, if they can’t get that right there’s not much chance with anything else!!!!!

lovely place, right by the sea, nice menu, lots of outside seating to enjoy the location, staff are friendly. Will definitely be going back.

So grateful to find somewhere to quench my thirst inside in the cool! Had sausage and chips to eat and it was delicious plus a big serving.They also welcomed my dogs.The staff were lovely and friendly and service good.I am surprised to have read the previous comments because the landlord has gone out of his way to make it a safe and simple system.Signs up staying exactly what to do,where to go and a simple one way system which must've all taken a lot of effort to work out just so we,the customers and the staff can stay safe at this difficult time.Me and my two dogs will be back.Cheers.

We arrived to a rude welcome from the barman, we were made to feel very unwelcome, had to write our own drink and food orders, they advertised they were part of the eat out to help out scheme and they weren’t. The food was typical pub food nothing special. Also we must have had two heads as the locals couldn’t stop staring. We definitely will NOT be coming back again.

We had spent a lovely day out and made the big mistake of going here for food. Absolutely terrible customer service! The most confusing seating and ordering instructions that they then blame the customers for . When you walk in there is a sign saying “please wait to be seated” I stood at this sign and the bar staff just stared at me until I had to shout across the restaurant to ask if I should come in . I was then greeted by a very unfriendly unhelpful member of staff who spoke to me like I was an idiot and even said to my husband “that it was a shame people couldn’t read!” When referring to customers not following instructions that they themselves clearly didn’t abide by themselves . A guy who I presume was the owner stomped around shaking his head at anyone who came in. And a table of local las sat glaring at us the whole time. The food was ok ,but the atmosphere was one of worst I’ve experienced in an eating establishment, they don’t deserve to have a business.

Having been for a brisk walk by the sea we visited the Temple Bar again out first visit this year ! The very smart new conservatory is a real bonus and has easy to use sliding doors snug in winter ! A warm welcome and tastey food was the order of the day ! Love visiting Amroth The Temple Bar is an added bonus !

Stopped for some lunch on a very cold blustery day, the premises were lovely and warm, the food was delicious, and the staff very friendly and helpful will definitely be visiting again highly recommended

We totally do not understand how this place can have such a high rate... We received the most grumpy customer service ever! The man behind the bar had most sour face and attitude towards us... We waited for food for ages (45 mins!) and we got an impression that he forgot our order. The place was not busy at all. Sticky tables. Front door was wide opened so we felt cold and closed it. The man came from behind the bar and ostentatiously opened it again... Clearly he does not feel the need of building client's loyalty or basic welcome. The food was average. Great location that's all. Other food places on that stretch are much better. We do not recommend.

On the day we visited, we were blessed with a gloriously sunny Winter’s day. We sat outside as it was warm and pleasant. Dogs are welcome inside and out which is a bonus. I had a toasted sandwich which was very nice. It’s a perfect stop after a stroll along the beach. Friendly staff.

Great venue for watching sport. Three or four TV's on most days which cover most televised sports. Good food. Great location close to the beach in Amroth.

Love coming here to sit outside for drinks in the summer and was really pleased to have excellent food and service inside the pub on a wet night in October. Love the fact it's dog friendly. Will be returning for food and drinks.

Love this place, visited for years. Excellent food. Very dog friendly . Own car park to rear. Kids room to back.

Well used bar, simple menu. Friendly bar staff. Food to average standard small portion in lamb crawl but tasty. Cost expensive for what it was !

Went in here twice for a drink and was going to come in one evening for the Thai but we came home from holiday soon so did not get the chance to dine there. The food did look very good coming out of the kitchen.This place is in a lovely spot and very lively.I must applaud their view on dogs and they are so welcome. makes us feel welcome to.

Most Sundays find us at the Temple Bar where the food is reasonably priced and always good. It is great to find a dog friendly pub where we can eat in comfort with a fabulous view. All the staff are polite and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble and the dogs are also well catered for with doggy ice cream!

Visited Amroth to try and get a bite to eat but as it was a beautiful summers day we were unable to get in at the pub we wanted to dine at.

Wife and I enjoyed a morning tea and coffee. Nice to sit outside in the sunshine, good views, nice location. Very good, pleasant service.

Very nice food and excellent beer 🍺. Very good value. Staff were friendly and a great view. Lovely seaside village

We paid our first visit of the year last week to this warm friendly pub. We ate here and as always the food was plentiful, generously priced and tasted gorgeous! The locals and the owner are all friendly and welcoming and as an added bonus we can take our dogs there too. Will be seeing you again very soon!

We had a family of 6 eating here and we cannot fault the food nicely cooked generous portion sizes and reasonable prices , But I have to admit allowing DOGS INTO THE RESTAURANT !!! That’s a big no for me

Been a regular customer for a while now it's I lovely friendly place with good food and really welcoming staff... Dog friendly too 😁😁😁

A return visit on a trip to Amroth where a friend and I not only ate here each day but had great fun in the evenings at a bingo evening and quiz night. We received a very warm welcome on each visit from all members of staff, ate super food (hearty portions!) and all very reasonably priced. I thoroughly enjoyed the ploughman’s lunch which was served with a substantial salad and very generous portions of two different cheeses along with a freshly baked baguette and pickles. Highly recommend you try this. I actually had it twice! I also had a super omelette which was again served with a large salad and generous portion of chips. The quiz and bingo nights gave us the opportunity to meet and chat with friendly locals which made our stay in the area fun as well as helping a local charity that benefited from the proceeds of the well attended quiz night and raffle. If you are in the area, do yourself a favour and pop in - it is well worth it.

Don't really know where to start with this one. Those who have described it as a working men's club have nailed the atmosphere and I would add circa 1970s to that description.

As always - everything about this bar is excellent and it does not pretend to be anything more than it is! What it does - it does very well -and this includes the fabulous amount of food you get when you order the ploughmand lunch which I had not had before - and now know is brilliant value for money.

Visited today for a late lunch what a pleasure. Specials and full Menu. Good selection of beers and Guinness draught. Friendly staff and indoor dog friendly. Thank you. Hope to have time to return.

Tucked in next to another pub but right on the sea front. Very friendly staff and the food and beers excellent.

Always a friendly welcome. Good quality food at affordable prices., with a superb Thai menu freshly cooked in the evening. Games room at the back to keep the children happy. Numerous TV to watch whatever sport is on. Good selection of ales, lagers and ciders. Not to mention the wines and spirits. Cheapest in the village.

Lovely, good old fashioned, well cooked food and friendly vibe in a good location. We had scampi and chips and salmon bites and chips and a lovely coffee. We were so pleased that it was dog friendly. Thanks!

Nice and warm place and good coffee nice to come again they are really friendly staff and dog his name Mikey

I recently visited this lovely restaurant on a visit to Amroth with a friend. She eats here whenever on a visit to the area but for me it was my first visit and I left here most impressed. We received an extremely warm, friendly welcome and were served quickly even though they were busy. The atmosphere was relaxed and the food delicious with generous portions and very reasonably priced. I would heartily recommend anyone looking for a tasty, home cooked meal to visit the Temple Bar Inn.

Impressed with the spacious Temple Bar - conveniently situated, great welcome, so dog friendly and gorgeous coffee! (very necessary to warm up after a bracing winter walk on the nearby beach.)

I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else on my annual visit to relatives in Wales - there's always a warm welcome at The Temple Bar for me and, as I usually go with a friend or relative we both enjoy it hugely.

We visit the Temple Bar all year round and the welcome is always so friendly. Especially appreciate the welcome dogs receive. As owners can then relax, the dogs are relaxed.

Lovely bacon sandwich for my sister and me and a sausage each for the dogs. Lovely friendly staff and very obliging.Love that they’re so dog friendly plus there’s lots of space inside and out. They do a mean Thai take away too.

Stopped here for drinks and snacks with family after walk on the beach. Very friendly staff & great place to relax.

Lovely warm welcome every time we visit whether it's for food or just a coffee. Good homely food served by friendly staff. Well worth a visit

A great place for food and coffee and always made welcome by Ian and staff. Even when there are several of us and many dogs we have great service and hospitality. Nothing is too much trouble and we visit many times a year when in Amroth. Would definitely recommend

I went to the temple bar with my daughter as I often do, to have a catch up with friends this evening. My daughters pictures have been posted on numerous of occasions on the temple bar website, displaying her affection to Mikey (the dog). No doubt this was a publicity stunt on the owners behalf, but non the less.. the affection was genuine from both sides. Tonight, I was absolutely horrified at the way in which the proprietor lectured my daughter after she had accidentally stepped on Mikeys foot. Not only had Mikey been under general anaesthetic for a minor procedure earlier that day, with his owner stating that he was still heavily sedated and “not quite with it”, this poor dog could barely walk. However, on entering, he leapt to his feet when he realised that my four year old had come over to give him a attention. During the evening, she had accidentally stepped on his paw, to which I witnessed the owner, sternly telling her to “stay away from him” that she was “not to touch him” and that “he had warned her to be careful around him and that she was not very nice for stepping on his paw”. (Rich from a man who allows his heavily sedated dog to loosely parade around a public area when clearly under the influence of strong medication). As a parent naturally does, I questioned the owner as to why he was speaking to MY child in this manner, and challenged him when reminding him how much she loves his dog; not to mention that it was an accident and that she was four years of age! I also brought to his attention that not only how he spoke was inappropriate, as so was allowing his poorly dog to be laying half conscious in a public area! I admit that I soon lost my temper with him as he stood defending his dog, to which my little one became distressed at the prospect of hurting him. He soon “banned me” told me to “get out” and to “take her with you” (referring to my toddler!). So yep.. I can’t argue in relation to the fact that this man has an unquestionable love for dogs, so so that he is capable of upsetting a small girl and losing yet more local custom. On the bright side, he’s still on for winning next years “friendliest pub for dogs” award. Shame they don’t spend money and need their owner in assisting them to the bar

A very welcoming pub. Compared to the rest of the pubs in Amroth this is the cheapest and in terms of quality certainly as good as the others. Curry half and half was great and came with a mound of chips. Pleasant bar staff and Mikey the dog!

Good range of food and drink at reasonable price. Ideal for sports enthusiasts. Games room. Cash dispenser. Thai menu is superb. Very dog friendly. Good outside area.

We watched the football (very big screens) in this child friendly, very dog friendly venue. Staff helpful and friendly. Menu traditional pub food and Thai food. Family of four, we had fish and chips, burgers and sausages, all ok. Reasonable price. The decor is traditional and the back bar area / toilets are rustic but the food is good and the staff friendly, service good.

18 people and 3 dogs from the same family were made to feel very welcome ! We were served promptly with delicious food both English and wonderful Thai best we have ever had ! Lovely warm and welcoming atmosphere a good time was had by all !

Popped in on a Sunday eve whilst on Holiday (no where else was doing food) I was a bit dubious about the decor, very outdated working man's club style with grubby carpets but was absolutely delighted to see they did Thai food, what a find ! .... or maybe not.

Husband and I ate here twice in one week, service was really quick and polite both times.

Called in yesterday evening and booked a table. Made instantly welcome and the bar man called in tongight to ensure our table was reserved even though he wasn’t working. They have a service where they will drive you home after a thai meal in the evening if you enquire upon arrival. We didn’t need this. Our food was brought fast and was excellent. No table cloths it’s a pub. Dogs welcome and things like air hockey and table football in the back bar if you have children. I Didn’t see any children in the main front room I’m pleased to say. They asked if the food was okay and really cared about your answer. Starters, mains and two glasses of wine just over £40. They do have food other than Thai and even have breakfast menus and things like hot chocolate.

Called in with 30 Air Cadets, hungry after an evening of beach sports. Phoned ahead to book 30x chips and sausage meals. On arrival, great quick service, good value meals all happy!

Stayed in amroth for 2 weeks and come here around 6 times overall. Food is very nice and prices are different. Staff are all very friendly. We also loved the quiz nights and bingo nights. Its dog friendly and although we didnt have any dogs with us we enjoyed stroking all the dogs that come in. Felt like a very friendly place.

Lovely friendly, family bar with good food also a game room for the kids to play . Plenty of tables outside to sit comfortably. Good for a relaxing drink, after a stroll across the beach or just a nice break with a great veiw .
