The Bunch of Grapes in Carmarthenshire

Great atmosphere, with events being held here daily!

Fabulous choice of menus here, even one for your 4 legged friends! Cosy log fire and board games for the winter months. Food served every day, helpful staff, friendly atmosphere and a pub cat!

The food was absolutely lovely, decent potion sizes and wonderfully cooked. A gamble on Pork Belly with black pudding crumble was definitely worth it!

Stopped here for Sunday lunch , whilst on our way to Aberporth Not too many places to stop on our journey, but read the reviews and all were complimentary of the food here Very glad we stopped as the Sunday roast was excellent, plenty of beef, vegetables and we had stuffing balls Would definitely recommend and would stop here again if travelling by Also dog friendly and let dogs in the dining area

We had the most amazing Sunday roast in your pub. Homemade Yorkshire pudding melted our hearts. All was fresh and tasty. Minuses: Dogs in room we were having food, sniffing etc Toilets needs updating!!!

Great Veggie Sunday lunch options. Friendly helpful staff. Warm comfortable dining area.

We looked from somewhere to eat in the Newcastle Emlyn area as part of a short break. Really glad that we decided on the Bunch of Grapes. Everything was excellent. The staff are friendly, efficient and attentive without being intrusive. In fact the guy working the restaurant area was excellent on the night we visited. The pub is really nice and cosy with a good range of drinks. What really sets it apart from other eateries in the area is the range and choice of meals. Started off with Pulled Pork and Apple Bonbons which were excellent, full of flavour and beautifully presented. The two of us followed that with mains of Korean Chicken Thighs with wild rice and Teriyaki salmon - again, both excellent. This pub really deserves the positive reviews it gets on here and we'd definitely be back if in the area again.

Dropped in for dinner after the fireworks display. Buzzy atmosphere and very friendly and efficient service. We all enjoyed our meals which were delicious

Booked a Sunday lunch for my Husband's 65th Birthday with Family. The food was outstanding and all the meats just melted in your mouth. Staff went above and beyond with their service. Will definitely be returning. Couldn't recommend it enough. Diolch yn fawr iawn/Thank you so much.

This is the second time I’ve visited the bunch of grapes and honestly I’m this place makes me wish I lived in Newcastle Emlyn. I rang to ask if they could accommodate us last minute and not only did they make an amazing effort the lady i spoke to was so lovely. The gentleman who greeted us, for the second visit was absolute gold. A true gentleman and so professional. The pub is so down to earth, relaxed but the food and service is of the highest quality. It is by far my FAVOURITE pub I’ve ever been to. Myself, Partner and dog spent the evening playing scrabble and enjoying the extremely reasonable food and drinks. An absolute gem. Just as a mention my celiac meant a GFmenu and they outdid themselves.

What a great find! The most amazing vegan choices, and the food was so tasty! Lovely cosy atmosphere in the pub too. Will definitely be back and highly recommend to others

Fabulous baguette and salad, good selection of beer, friendly pub.. A must visit A++

Lovely welcoming pub and staff and dog friendly which is a bonus. We had Sunday lunch and it was delivered to our table promptly and piping hot. Lovely selection of veg on the plate, well presented and full of flavour. Will definitely be returning. 😋

The food was absolutely delicious and well worth the price, the lady who delivered it was extremely lovely even though our house isn’t the easiest to find. Will definitely order from here again!

Lovely food and delivered hot and on time - thanks!

Great food and service, well priced wine menu as well. If you are in the area this place is well worth a visit.

Just had a cup of coffee but nice pub, I will be going back.

Really great meal on the evening of September 6th,, I had ordered two Welsh Rarebit Burgers for myself and my sister, I can only say it was the best burger I’ve had anywhere around Emlyn and the surroundings areas. Will definitely be back to try some more

The service was very good at first food 1st class but we waited for some time at the end of are main course for the pudding menu then wheels fell of waiting over 20 mins no one came to take are order so we got up went to the bar to pay the gentleman behind the bar was the person who brought us the menu he did not ask if we wanted to order so I paid and we left .there had been an incident just before we arrived due I think to the stag party there some one could not hold the drink unsure we would return shame as we only live in Cenarth

Fantastic pub. Excellent food and service. Extremely friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Food good and very friendly helpful service. Let down by the horrible toilets. On the plus side, they love dogs here and make them welcome.

My parents moved to Wales a couple of years ago and even though I've visited a few times we hadn't been to The Bunch of Grapes prior to today. I'm so glad I found a Gluten-free friendly pub to eat at within a short drive of their house. As newly diagnosed (less than 6months) it can still sometimes be stressful for me eating out, so I was very greatful they were so aware of my needs. The staff and locals were friendly and welcoming and the pub had a lovely atmosphere. I will be back for sure.

Only watched the football in here. A good few pints and a great place to drink 👍

Me and my parents were visiting for the first time in the area and didn't know where to have dinner. So checked on google and came here because the place had some good reviews. Food was great by all and I was the only one who ordered dessert which was OK. We weren't greeted properly at the door and food Service was slow. There were times when we felt ignored even though it was quiet and not so busy. One of the waitresses rudely dropped my dessert dish in front of my mum and then walked away. Served the dessert dish to the wrong person. Despite the way Service went, we did enjoy our food.

What a lovely place, service was superb, friendly welcoming and easy going. Food was delightful Sunday lunch so well done, it was 'banging' according to my kids. Definitely recommend 👌 what a great find. 👍

We're staying in the village for one night & the pub was recommended by our guest house. We had a really lovely meal. Pub grub, but more tasty and a bit of fusion. If we're in the area again, we'll definitely be back. I had Korean chicken thighs with rice, and my husband had a beef burger. Both really lovely.

Fantastic food. Went for Sunday lunch and then again in the week. Highly recommend.

Went for lunch today 24/07/24 Dana was lovely, my wife loved her sea bass with lime, tipsy Bakewell and coconut rice pudding both fab! Will be heading here every time I’m in west Wales! Treat yourself at this great pub 👍

Working away from home and hotel I'm staying at isn't serving food tonight so came across this place. Just had the nicest meals I've had in a very long time- can totally recommend the teriyaki salmon with lime and coriander rice and salad - it was delicious. I was also tempted by the white chocolate bread and butter pudding with ice cream and it certainly did not disappoint- it was equally delicious. Even though the meals are cooked from fresh the service was excellent and the food arrived within minutes of being ordered. Will definitely be returning soon.

A friend of mine and I were traveling by car to Wales and we found this place to have a beer: nice youthful atmosphere, excellent beer and friendly staff. Recommended for foreign tourists who want to relax and have a pint in a Welsh type pub.

Sensationally great restaurant - the best during our Wales trip. Incredibly delicious, fantastic cuisine - a gifted chef who interprets his craft creatively and he can do it excellently, he also asked about refinements and whether it was tasty (lamb and chili), a master of his craft! There was tasty ale, great service, good atmosphere, nice ambience, very fair prices - everything fits here! Very highly recommended!

The missus and I were stranded in Newcastle Emlyn due to our vehicle breaking down. The Bunch Of Grapes provided us a place to wait for a lift home to Cardiff, along with board games plenty of food and drinks and chats with the staff, Nathan the barman was particularly friendly. Would thoroughly recommend visiting this pub.

Called in for Sunday lunch for 4 adults. First visit and we hadn't booked. Garden was full but we got a table inside. Service was very friendly and quite quick considering how busy it was. We ordered 3 roast pork dinners and a vegetarian dish. We were all delighted. Roast dinner included roast and mashed potatoes, a good selection of veg, Yorkshire pudding and crackling - all well presented and beautifully cooked. We were unanimous in considering our meals to be good value and our overall dining experience to be excellent. Highly recommended.

4 stars because you sold out of Sunday dinner, but we still had a pint of shandy, and would have got in to trouble had we gone out in to back garden 🍺🍻🍾🥳😍🥰🎉🍛🍽️ update 08/09/2022 managed to eat here and a wonderful time was had. Lovely welcome very warm and friendly lovely selection of beers and very reasonable prices for wine. Highly recommend the onion rings as a side and great value for money. Looking forward to returning in 2023. Thanks team for a lovely time! 🙏🥰☺️ Update 02/06/2024 Lovely visit once again! Sunday lunch was amazing 🤩 Colleagues just simply amazing. Was caring and attentive without being overbearing made sure we were very well taken care of, looking forward to another visit this week Thank you team.

Popped in for a few beers and some food. Had a spicy lamb pizza that was arguably the best pizza I've ever eaten😁,! Highly recommend trying that and the pub. I love it here! 😁

The food and the service were excellent. We visited on a busy bank holiday. On entering we were asked about any allergies or dietary needs without a fuss, were well looked after by knowledgeable and friendly staff throughout the evening. All the food was good.

Perfect lunch, the pizza was very delicious and the staff very friendly. During midday it wasn't crowded and had a selection of non vegan and vegan.

We sat down for a pre wedding meal and the service we received from Ollie was absolutely superb. From the moment we walked in to the moment we left we were made to feel welcome and the food was top notch 👌

To be honest I think I'm being generous, the pub itself is a beautiful building, but the food was anything but and really expensive. We only wanted lunch and didn't want to spend £50+ on it so we had a portion of chips soggy but at least warm, you'd expect a whole lot more for £5 and hot & spicy chicken wings £8.95 I was expecting a nice big basket but was given 4 1/2 wings 2 with their tips on, I'm assuming to make the small bit of slate they were presented on look reasonable full. They were also overcooked. So it's your call I'll never go there again. But if you have money to burn, a small appetite, and are not a foodie this is the place for you.

Pizzas were ok but the crusts were very doughy, the chips were more like wedges and were dripping in oil. Expected better for the price.

Super friendly pub all staff made us feel really welcome. We had a meal and dessert both of which were beautiful cooked and presented. When looking at the menu I did feel the prices were high however after eating the food I would not question coming back the price is definitely worth it!

Took our puppy in for it's first outing and Willow was given a huge welcome. She loved all the attention and had a cooked sausage from the doggy menu. The food is excellent and the warm and friendly atmosphere makes for an enjoyable experience. Would highly recommend the new menu they have just launched. All credit to the owner Val and her team who I can see are working extremely hard to cater to a who visit. Wish there were more pubs like this.....a real gem of a find 🙂

Lovely, friendly pub with great food.

Cat poo on floor in restaurant area. Bar member removed it. Menu limited due to no stock. Coffee cold. Toilets absolutely shocking. And over priced food. Will not be returning

Ordered Gammon, it was amazing. Loved the idea of a slice of fresh pineapple. Well presented and excellent quality.

Really good burger and potato chips delivered fast and friendly. Thanks

Lovely cosy pub. Food was great and the staff friendly and chatty. We arrived early at lunch time so fairly quiet at that time. Great place to call in and a lovely village too. A beautiful picturesque walk up the river from the bridge along a newly built decking platform.

Went for a family birthday lunch, age range 75 to 8 years old. Every one enjoyed their meal and we would definitely come back. A friendly welcome, food freshly cooked and very well presented. The chef came out and we were able to have things prepared to suit ourselves, e.g. chicken wings with a sauce that wasn't too hot for the 8 year old . Two of us had fish(salmon and sea bream) that was cooked perfectly.

Lovely atmosphere in the heart of Newcastle Emlyn with open fire and excellent menu.

Wow, what an absolutely amazing set of menus, spoilt for choice, especially the vegetarian options. 👌 Heard this place was amazing and wasn't disappointed. The best food we've had in a very long time. Thank you guys 🙏

A lovely Mother's Day lunch! Delicious food, excellent service and a friendly atmosphere. Diolch!

We come here to watch the football and enjoy a few drinks, everyone was welcoming and friendly plus they are dog friendly which is important to us.

The salad that came with the arancini starter needed help, so did the chips with the scampi. There was no defribulator to hand and probably wouldn’t have helped revive such a dead limp offering. Frankly the food served looked nothing like the photos on Tripadvisor and bordering on trading standards miss representation, the chips were soggy refried roast potatoes from Sunday lunch. I cannot think of one positive thing to say about the food. The landlady had no interest in making sure we paid our bill, more worried about who had not put a slip in the till for wages. The beer was fresh and good. We left smelling like an old chip fat fryer. I just cannot justify the 4plus star rating on Tripadvisor

We had the most amazing Sunday lunch. Will definitely recommend it.

Beautiful food. Great customer service but drinks a bit pricey

Went here the other night, we got there around 8:15 just in time before they closed the kitchen. Fortunately the hen party there was just leaving so we had a place to sit. We ordered a bunch burger and chips and a pizza. I chose to have two patties in mine and they were absolutely amazing. Very juicy, filled with taste and to think you could have had 3! The chips were very chunky with the skin still on them and I loved them too. Soph really liked the pizza, got half way through it and was full, size wise noat people will get through it pretty without much trouble I think. Base of the pizza was very soft and loads of cheese. Was maybe on the expensive side however the quality lived up to it. Even though we got there pretty close to the closing time for the kitchen the staff were lovely, think they could tell we weren't from around there. Really sweet Welsh atmosphere there, would definitely recommend

Lovely friendly pub. Great to see a separate vegetarian /vegan menu. Lots of choice. We had a lovely meal and will definitely to going back to eat there again

The food was stunning. Good atmosphere and nice beer. The only negative was the toilets were not the cleanest. Overall very good and recommended.

Excellent service, really good food, freshly cooked and very welcoming and helpful staff. They went out of their way to deal with our dietary requirements and were very successful.

Such a nice pub, the food is wonderful and the staff are lovely. Highly recommend

Great place to meet up with old friends and also to meet new ones

Fantastic little pub, excellent food & helpful staff

We were away for my husbands 62 birthday, and went for a walk, just 2 mins into the town, we came across this place! What a little gem of a place! A roaring fire, we were greeted by a lovely friendly lady, who took our order, think this is the friendliest pub I have ever been in! Dogs were allowed to! The food was outstanding, real fat homemade chips! The cottage pie was so tasty, if ever your near, give this place a go! You won't be disappointed! Will definitely be back.

Our angora goat group went last night for their Christmas Party menu. what a fabulous evening. Beautifully decorated for Christmas, the friendliest most efficient serving staff I have encountered in a long while and food to die for.

We didn't quite know what to expect but we couldn't have been more please with the light lunch we had! Cheese toastie with the cheese deliciously oozing out, and a decent salad garnish with dressing and home made coleslaw to accompany it. My husband had the chicken baguettes and it was equally good. Top marks for a small town pub!

Very tasty lunch enjoyed today😋 You could say we only had a toasted sandwich & a baguette....however with the generous salad & homemade slaw & fab side order of chips & a pint it was a very well priced & delicious suprise all round . Diolch!

A short walk from my business premises, and I can only apologise for not eating here before. Went for Sunday Dinner for two. Well presented roast beef dinner with good size portions of both Meat and Veg (there was also option of turkey) Friendly service and reasonably prices. Very impressed thank you.

Great selection of food, and really helpful staff. A few good sized rooms out the back for food with a cozy bar area with a fire.

Called in today (20/11) for lunch. Lovely welcome from staff and locals. The food was delicious with an amazing vegan/veggie menu. I also enjpyed meeting Pickles. The pub cat. X

Very nice. Warm and cosy. Staff helpful and friendly.

Good beer, friendly staff and a very nice garden at the back. Food looks great but not tried yet

By far the dirtiest place ive ever eaten. Filthy glasses, toilets and the pizza we ordered wasnt cooked properly. Never again. Totally unloved place inside and out.

Great welcome, friendly and helpful staff. Good, freshly cooked meals with a good selection of vegetarian food. Also, a good selection of beers. Will certainly be going back.

Lovely little pub.homely feel.had the gammon which was amazing.ordered an eton mess for desert..hmm bit odd..strawberry sauce at bottom.loads of sloppy squirty cream.little bit of meringue on top .one strawberry and more sauce...was a bit too sweet...would defo have the meal again but not pudding

Found this pub via trip advisor on a recent outing, great pub with restaurant area and good ambiance. Plus they are dog friendly. The food was excellent my partner had the lamb steak and I had the sea bass, both cooked perfectly. The service was second to none. Great to see quality food and service. Would definitely going again if in the area.

Nice pub in a quirky little town.

I was really excited about the place as it seems to have a lot of good reviews... Unfortunately, it did not live up to the expectations.. we had to sit at the back, in a room with no music and with mould crawling up the walls and curtains! As the main area was busy and we did not wish to take up a large table. My food was presented really well, but was tepid! The burger was only just warm, but my partners food was really tasty and he couldn't fault it. So whether it was that mine had to sit a bit longer to wait for his to cook, I don't know, but I was disappointed!

Dog friendly, good choice of ales,good food,pleasant staff,I'd recommend.

Delicious lunch. The bar staff were lovely and very helpful. Homemade soup was gorgeous. Excellent burger. Nothing was too much trouble and there was even a bowl of treats for the dog

Excellent.First class service,delicious hot food,served by pleasant staff.Definately will return,the four of us had a great time.

Unreal food and friendly staff as well as plenty of seating through out the pub and a brilliant atmosphere

An entire vegetarian menu! Everything we've tried tastes great. Very friendly staff. Caters for 2 as well as larger parties. Dog friendly.

Stopped into the bunch of grapes on our way threw Castle Emlyn. The food was absolutely amazing. Lovely staff and service thankyou. Will definitely visit again ☺️

My husband's steak was off. Really don't understand how the chef did not notice as the smell was awful. Put the rest of us adults off our food. When it came time to pay the bill, we were just told an amount. We asked to see the bill, only to find that we were charged for items that we had ordered, but told were not available. Service was a bit of a shambles and food storage/hygeine possibly needs looking at.

Booked for 7.30pm, ordered at 7.45pm waited until 9.30pm for our food, we could see that the pub was busy so didn’t complain for the first hour but then the pub and restaurant area emptied out and still no food. We had 2 young children with us that were getting very tired. We asked how long the food would be after 1 hour wait and we’re told that they were unsure as they had been busy no, real apology and no staff member through out the long wait came over and apologised. The table next to us were told there would be a wait for food and offered a free drink for the wait. I had to ask for money to be taken off the bill! This is not customer service! When the food eventually arrived it was average, some dishes no flavour and bland. Sad as reading the menu and reviews online we were all very excited to visit. Overall a huge disappointment.

A busy thurs evening didn't stop the lovely lady finding us a better table to fit round,,we had great service and can highly recommend the ribs which were beautiful, and proper home made chips were lovely too,the pub has a lovely atmosphere,is very dog friendly, and the two lovely ladies handled your front of house spot on !!

Excellent kept pint of Sea Fury. Good food

Popped in for a pint while waiting for an Indian takeaway order to be ready next door. Very friendly and good atmosphere with a good choice of on tap beer lager and cider.

Great place for pub lunch, dog friendly and nice play area for children

Lovely little pub, traditional local. The lady behind the bar was friendly and welcoming

We were in Newcastle Emlyn for a few days, the food was superb, the service was quick and very friendly, even though it was busy Will definitely visit again

Lovely food staff friendly. would recommend Chips were amazing

A lovely pub providing excellent food and good quality wines at cost effective prices. Always worth a visit if you're in the area

Great pub, staff were really friendly and great prices ! Definitely worth a visit if your passing through ! Lovely beer garden out the back too !

Best roast dinner in West Wales. Collected two takeaway roasties this afternoon and they were amazing! Highly recommended :-)

Stopped here today for Sunday lunch, roast pork for me and a vegetarian option for the wife and I can honestly say it was by far the best Sunday Roast I’ve had in a long time… We then decided to sample the dinner menu for a take away and it didn’t disappoint. Great food at very reasonable prices and dog friendly as well.. Highly recommend a visit..

Despite a mix up with our booking we were seated quickly & issued with menus. Between us we had chicken Kiev, pizza, scampi, & bunch burgers. The food was fantastic; all home-cooked & fresh. Nothing appeared to have been frozen, for eg the scampi was breaded in panko breadcrumbs. The staff were really friendly, & the resident cat, Pickle, very happy to be made a fuss of. We’ll definitely return if we find ourselves in the vicinity again.

Was recommended this pub by a local and to be honest, it was fab, our first impressions as we walked in were mixed tbh but never judge a book by its cover, the food was amazing and everyone was extremely animal friendly, will definitely be calling here again next time we are in town.

Staff were friendly was there the other night and was amazing it was chilled and food was amazing!

Great food, barman, and the guy who took our food orders were brilliant, amazing customer service.
