Decent pub, attentive bar staff and a friendly boss, no food anymore but you should definitely try out the roasts at Ocean Lounge in Porthkerry Caravan Park

Once this place was a cheap local boozer but now days this is a dirty dump full of not very nice characters. Many of the evening customers are on south wales police wanted list. I am not lying or exaggerating. The beer is better and cheaper in spoons with a much nicer atmosphere, without everybody being on drugs while drinking. The Buck of Barry is nick named “the Star Wars bar” and rightly so !

We popped in for a Sunday Carvery. Highly recommended this was absolutely amazing. We noticed the sign outside but at first we didn't think the carvery was on. You have to go right down to the back of the pub. The meal was one of the nicest carvaries we have had in ages! We will definitely be returning with the family. Hidden Gem in Barry ! Thank you.

Staff are good, good place to watch the sports.

Popped in on my own for a chillax and a couple of pints. It was a Fri night so expected it to be busy and it was. No problem getting served with two quick bar staff. An artist was belting out some songs which I thought was a bit early at 6.30 but hey why not, he was quite good. What I liked about the pub is that it has a back seating area where you can relax and still hear the music but it's not so loud. The Guinness was spot on, so overall will use this pub again, also handily placed by a tesco and a bus stop

Had a birthday party here, venue is an absolute steal for free we just paid for a cocktail tree to secure. We were given free reign to decorate and the music which was good and the party itself was good. However organisation and communication from the owner was lacking, we were told we had the venue till 7pm, then at 4pm receive via a text that we had to leave - I still had guests! We compromised on clearing the food table, however the bar staff made it very obvious they wanted us gone by their general attitude which was a real shame as we had such a great time previously and could have been prevented with better communication and planning. There is also only 1 toilet upstairs which is in desperate need of renovating and didn't have enough loo roll or soap to even last the first hour of the party. I'd come here again for drinks as they are very good, however I'd be hesitant to recommend as a party venue.
