Not a good place for food on a busy evening. We'd reserved a table to ensure we could sit and eat but were placed in the general bar area. We were surrounded by groups of people who were drinking, shouting, swearing and singing. Not quite the nice evening meal I was hoping for. To compound the misery, the bar was queued 2 deep all around, so we had to fight to get drinks and order food, or even to find where our table was in the first place. No option for table service. Food was ok. Left as quickly as possible after finishing our meal. Not sure why they don't separate dining couples and families from the livelier crowds. I've no problem with people going out and having fun, but it's not something I want to be in the middle of when I've gone out for an evening meal.

Fish pie and lasagne was nice. Nice pub with good menu options but not as good as previous years as the menu options has been reduced considerably. List a star for giving strong hint Y h at I was expected to give a tip on the card machine! Normally I do but not at those prices. Very expensive place to eat.

What more can you ask for sitting in the sun on the terrace at The Bishops overlooking St David's cathedral. Very friendly and attentive team with a varied menu including vegetarian and vegan options; even a vegetarian bangers and mash!! I've eaten fish 'n chips in many places in the UK and abroad; I must say, The Bishops fish 'n chips is right up there with the best. Would highly recommend The Bishops if you're spending some time in St Davids and looking for a lunch or dinner stop.

First time in a long time that I have had the chance to visit this pub. Great beer, great service (at a late hour), atmosphere a bit subdued but it was an hour or so before closing time on a wet Thursday night. The lamb kofta burgers were delicious and cooked perfectly. We had special requirements which were dealt with perfectly. Looking forward to our next visit

Party of 6 away for BH annual get together. Arrived early for 18:30 table, and was happy to start with drinks! Got shown to table and then ordered at 18:24. Food was good and we did not wait long. Service from youngsters was ok for time year, holiday time, so expect some errors! Was really disappointed at around 7:20pm when told we had to be moved on at 745pm! Not allowing time for us to even order dessert. I challenged on this as after spending £141 on food alone I would expect them to at least allow us an option for dessert or not. We were told they have to get two meals out of each table per night! That was never explained when booking! Away on break with friends and we all ordered from bar at least twice whilst ordering and waiting for food, so frustrated that our so called table allowance was 1 hour 15 mins! The shift manager came to apologise but made it very clear with a upset voice it was out of her hands as she has targets to meet! Who ever owns, manages or runs this establishment, please note, you need to be ashamed of the pressure put on your team! And that you spoilt our evening, as we all had to leave before 8pm!

We visited The Bishops on Sunday, 27th Aug. It was quiet when we arrived at 4.00pm. It said on the door on a poster food served all day. We found a table ( there was no reserved sign on). I went to the bar to order food and drinks but was told you can not order food until 5pm. We had a drink and waited till 4.45pm, there was now a queue at the bar. I got back in the queue to order food. When it was my turn, the bar tender said I couldn't sit at table 38 as that was reserved for 5.45pm, and I wouldn't have food by then, so she would have to move. There were no other available tables. She was very rude, and there was no apology. She then came around where we were sitting and put a reserved sign on the table. I put the menu down, and we left. We were very disappointed with the service.

Although the place was quiet, the gentleman was very helpful had 2 lattes and 2 fish, chips & mushy peas. The coffee came first, then within seconds, the fish,chips & mushy peas came. It was ok until I started cutting into it it was very greasy it was like the fish & chips had been left in the fat and it had not been drained off you could see the grease on the plate after you had eaten half of it by the time we had ate it the coffee had gone cold very disappointing after reading the reviews a shame really for the price we paid also the waitress wasn't very pleasant didn't say a word not even a smile not the right attitude to have in working in a pub restaurant

A nice enough pub but the ‘catch of the day’ was definitely not caught that day. The dover sole was so far from fresh that we had to order something else. Disappointingly the staff were not interested in what was wrong with the first order. My bbq burger was fine and the pub seems to have a nice atmosphere.

We were in St. Davids for a week, and we ate here twice. The first time we had basic food that was good, I had a Moroccan style burger, and my wife had a Greek style salad. The second time we ate there was a perfect dining experience as we decided to eat mid afternoon and ordered Crab salad with olive bread. The pub had just had a fresh delivery of Crab from Solva, and I can quite honestly say it was the best crab salad we have ever had in Britain. We sat outside in the lovely garden with its olive trees and a variety of plants and were blessed by the sun. Take it from me. It was sublime. The service was very good and professional each time we went in the place and we did go in every day. The only minor and it is minor downside to the pub is that when you enter all the tables say reserved on them and there is a very cramped area by the bar where people que to ask for tables or just to order a drink. This causes a bottleneck and confusion around the bar area. This is a minor issue, and I don't know how it can be solved, but then again, on all our visits, we never failed to get a seat. We loved this pub and all that went with it, so let's hope it continues to provide great memories and continues to prosper.

Despite it being very busy the food came out quickly with no detriment to the quality. The crab salad was very good and my husband particularly liked the lasagne. There are more pricey places to eat in the city but the quality of the food and the friendliness of the staff made us go back. Thanks to all for looking after us.

Went yesterday for an anniversary dinner with my girlfriend, and it was wonderful there. The atmosphere was warm when we arrived, and all staff were very welcoming. We had an Angry Dog burger and the BBQ Bacon Burger too, with onion rings and some of the Welsh blue cheese and leek sauce, every bite of which was delicious. We'd barely got back to our table before our food arrived, and after our mains we enjoyed the Belgian Waffles and Cheesecake of the day, which was a vanilla gluten free one, and it tasted great. We polished them off feeling absolutely stuffed and very happy with the experience. I almost never leave reviews but this place was wonderful and people deserve to know about this absolute gem in the UK's smallest city. If you're in or passing through St David's then this is the place to go, with a great atmosphere and warm people, you'll have an amazing time to remember. We'll be back in St David's again soon, hungry for more.

Pretty standard welsh pub with friendly staff and fairly standard prices. The atmosphere was quaint and historic, with whitewashed walls, a low roof and decorations that looked as though they’d been there for some time. Good pub vibes. The food was not particularly great or poor, but given the price, was a bit underwhelming. Service was prompt and warm, no issues there at all.

Firstly, this is not a place for a relaxing meal. To give it its due, it is very busy and clearly popular. There's no table service, and you have to fight your way to the bar for all food and drink. Table time seems to be limited to 1.5 hours. The food is ok, nothing to write home about. They do have a selection of good ales though and the staff are all very pleasant. I personally didn't feel as though the stress involved in getting fed and watered here was worth it though.

The place looked quite small from the outside, but it had plenty of space outside in the beer garden. The prices for meals were a little higher than some similar restaurants in the city, but when they were served I was happy with what I got - the size of the meals matched what you paid for. There wasn't a great deal of options for gluten free people, but they did have some gluten free meals and others that you could make gluten free with substitutes. The staff on the bar were friendly and helpful, the waitress was not as polite as I'm used to (arguing with one of my party about why she wouldn't have said the meal name she thought she heard because they don't serve it there - what was the point in proving herself right?) but it was fine. I would probably eat here again if I felt like one of the limited gluten free options.

We were staying over the road from The Sun and stopped in for a drink on Saturday. While we were there, we made a reservation to eat on Bank Holiday Monday evening. Unfortunately the weather was so bad that our reservation (which was outside due to current restrictions) had to be cancelled. So we ordered takeaway chicken madras and chilli, both of which were delicious. Staff were friendly and we would definitely go back if we were in the area again. Thank you!
