The Farmers Arms in Carmarthenshire

What a lovely find, the people were very friendly and then the carvery WOW the food was fantastic and great value for money, will definitely return if in the area in the future

An absolutely outstanding Sunday carvery. Good choice of meats ( beef, pork,turkey and gammon) and an amazing selection of vegetables.

Booked thus for Sunday lunch as we were staying in Marmarthen Bay, which is around 40 mins away. Lovely little village pub and restaurant. The carvery was beautiful and the dessert even better. Friendly locals and staff couldn't do enough for you.

What an amazing experience! The Sunday carvery was absolutely amazing, from the choice of 4 meats to a bewildering display of vegetables. Roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and lush gravy. The choice was fantastic.

Visited this pub as the reviews were good. Staff were friendly. Had to queue for the carvery but once we did get to top of the queue the food was good and plenty of it. We were sat in the bar as we had our dog with us, which was fine. The only downside was the loud music coming from the Pool room adjacent to the bar which was very annoying and although the food was very good the Pool room noise would put us off visiting again.

The pub was so friendly , super young waitress & staff who went above & beyond. Even able to sell us some milk for morning tea

Great reception from Ryan, visited twice mid week, on both occasions, meals were really tasty, generous portions. Made to feel welcome. Will return

We were staying in Llansteffan and decided to get some food here last night. I rang ahead and booked a table we ate in the bar area as we had our dog with us , the staff were very friendly provided water bowl for our pooch and there were dog treats on the bar. The food was delicious well cooked and nicely presented. Beef madras curry , vegetable lasagna and smokehouse burger with dirty fries. I would definitely recommend this pub if you are visiting the area and want some lovely food.

This was a really friendly pub serving piping hot tasty food through the week. With so many pubs closing Mon-Wed especially, it was great to find this one open for food and having lovely friendly staff too. With both a restaurant and bar area to meet all needs and very clean facilities, this is a pub I hope to revisit soon.

Great Sunday Lunch. All cooked freshly. Made to feel welcomed Good value for money. All staff friendly and took the time to ensure we were happy.

Brilliant. All you could expect, with good food, attentive staff who looked after us for the duration without being intrusive. Nice, happy personalities. A very enjoyable experience which we hope to repeat soon. Well done.

We were in Llansteffan thinking of somewhere to eat.. wanted more traditional pub food for a change. Headed here.. very welcoming...it was 4:30 no one else was eating, but there was no problem with them preparing food. I had three small plates and some garlic ciabatta..I like all mine, but would prefer bigger size spring rolls. My eating partner had the pie of the day..looked fab...and she said it was. Very clean pub... dining area and toilets. Nice bar as well. Decent parking. I understand it gets very busy so you may need to book at night? Plus his nice to see diet coke/pepsi at very reasonable prices..well done..

Lovely Sunday Carvery with plenty of choice. Amazing staff, so friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend.

Friendly local pub, half hour walk from Llansteffan. Large portions of very tasty food. The rainbow trout was delicious. Under £40 for 2 meals and 2 pints of local beer!!

Came here from a recommendation, decoration is very busy, far too much going on. We were seated fairly quickly, and our order was taken very quickly along with drinks, which arrived in a timely manner. We had 2 starters, garlic mushrooms and the tiger prawns, both of which were lovely, and cannot complain. However, when it came to the mains, they were below standards. We ordered fish and chips, we thought the fish was curried, due to the colouring and taste of the batter, we questioned this on payment to be told it was ‘beer battered’ ( I can be almost 99% sure it was NOT beer battered. Another main was the lasagne, this was very dry, the cheese used was cheap, which had a bleach after taste. Upon paying, the server asked how the meal was, to which we informed him that it was not satisfactory, to which he initially ignored us, until we pressed about the matter. He offered us 20% off, due to eating half of the lasagne. The waitress was friendly, good customer service and seemed to be apologising to a lot of customers.

We visited the Farmers on Wednesday 26th June for a family meal, and yet again the food was outstanding - Absolutely faultless!! My husband had one of the specials which was a lamb and mint pie (full to the brim with huge chunks of meat) and I had the chicken in a leek and bacon sauce - beautiful and full of flavour. The children’s portions are a very good size, great value for money! There was also a live jazz band playing, which added to the lovely atmosphere! We then sat out in the beer garden to finish our drinks while the children played in the garden. We cannot rate this place enough, such a lovely little pub/restaurant! We look forward to returning :-)

I had Battered Fish and Chips.Without doubt the worse Battered Fish and Chips I have ever had.It must have been cooked and heated a number of times.The batter which should have been crisp was like leather, it was inedible.The Chef/Owner seemed non plussed. Offered another fish but no apology or explanation.I refused the offer of another fish. Indult was added to injury when the bill fir the fish was reduced by 50% not cancelled completely.

3 lovely meals served by great staff. Booked for return in a couple of days time

Lovely food. Lovely pub. Only put 4 star because if they had checked on us after delivery of food we were looking at another drink. Harsh I know, but aimed at improving and getting them more £. Can't fault the food at all. Great sized portions for kids.

Excellent, reasonably priced food that was delicious. Wonderful Sunday lunch too. Highly recommend. Pop in here every time we are down this way. Dog Friendly too

Great Sunday carvery lunch ... definitely recommended

Just returned from staying in the area for a week ate here 5 times out of the 7 days including the Sunday carvery which was the best carvery we have had anywhere. The rest of the meals were great plenty of choice and huge meals. The staff were all very friendly and we were made to feel welcome every night. We had our labrador Alfie with us who loved his visits to the pub as he was spoilt rotten by the landlord who bought out huge pieces of meat for him every time we went in. We will definitely be visiting again when in the area thanks for making our holiday so great Mandy Chris and Alfie x

Went here 4 weeks ago for Sunday lunch. It was a carvery and it was absolutely delicious, best I've had, so I booked for lunch for a couple of Saturday's ago for my Mother-in- Laws Birthday, and again the food was beautiful, cooked to order, and the service is fantastic. A real Jem, well worth going to, also very reasonable.

Our recent visit to The Farmers Arm was disappointing. The waitress displayed microaggressions and noticeably treated us differently from other patrons. To make matters worse, the food was subpar, and I found a hair in my dish. Despite the pub's inviting atmosphere, these issues overshadowed our experience and left us dissatisfied.

Had a meal this evening, trout with prawns peas and chips and a country beef with mash mushrooms peas and lovely thick slice of beef with red wine gravy. Food hot and delicious, good portion sizes, would definitely recommend and return hopefully to try the Sunday lunch. Thank you to the chef and waitress for the food and service

Delicious food. I'd recommend the pan fried chicken in leek and wine sauce with sauté potatoes. 😋

Mum and I called here last minute and we were lucky enough to get a table. We had the most amazing Sunday lunch, it was a carvery and it was so tasty. Would love to return with all the family soon.

My husband and I booked Sunday lunch on line for 21st April as the reviews looked good. We were very impressed, as although it was a carvery, all the food was hot with 10 different vegetables! On my way out the chef (I think it was Colin) gave me a bowl of crackling to take home with me as I told him it was very good! We will definitely come back again and possibly try the weekday menu too in the future

Food fit for a King.... farmers too! Cannot praise the family-run Farmers Arms at Llan y Bri enough. Pleasant, tastefully decorated dining room overlooking medieval chapel, Excellent and attentive service. Superb food, with good choices. Reasonable prices. A great find. We'll definitely be back! Thank you to the family for such a good lunch today!

Lovely pub and atmosphere ,food was just lovely would definitely go again easy to book online. Will.be lovely to visit again In the summer

Charming cosy country pub with pretty average food unfortunately. Everything our group ordered was either over cooked or under cooked. Maybe take some things off the menu and master fewer dishes? Well priced drinks so just come in for a pint.

As I’m vegetarian and also have a gluten intolerance, it’s often hard to find somewhere where I’m able to actually enjoy my food, couldn’t fault it, everything was perfect, looking forward to next time 😋

Great menu. Lovely food. Plenty of it. Would recommend.

Absolutely lovely food, all came in great time and cooked beautifully. Steak melted in my mouth. Highly recommended.

We stayed nearby and came for a family dinner. We weren’t told at the beginning that few items from menu are missing, so were obliged to order something else in a rush. The lamb chops were chewy and not easy to eat, fish and chips were good with a nice fish, but not a very tasty chips. Otherwise the place is very nice and cozy.

Where to start! What a fantastic experience we had this evening. We booked a meal with our 2 smallest children, and the all the staff couldn’t show more care and thoughtfulness towards them. From extra pieces of flake chocolate in the hot drinks - to make sure the toddler wasn’t left out, to bringing over toys 🧸 to help keep them occupied, even the thoughtful easter eggs for the children! 🐣 Nothing had to be asked for, they knew what you needed before you even realised! The food was outstanding, all 3 courses! We all had such a lovely evening, and meeting the family running the pub was also an absolute delight! We highly recommend and will definitely be returning! Thank you all 💛 xx

We came here for dinner as we were staying in the area, we had our four legged friend with us too. The Farmers Arms was very welcoming and staff were very friendly. Food was delicious, full of flavour and reasonably priced. Dog treats and water were available and one of the staff members even gave our dog a lovely piece of meat too which he was obviously very happy with! We wouldn't hesitate returning whenever we are in the area again!

Went for the Sunday roast, lovely food, great portions and amazing value too! Choice of 4 meats blew my mind. Would love to go back.

My wife, myself and our dog stopped here for a late dinner. We were allowed in the bar with our dog and even though their chef had gone home, they still made us a very delicious dinner. The pints were nice, the people were lovely and the staff was incredible. They even cooked up a nice piece of beef for our dog without us even asking! I cannot recommend this place enough! If you are nearby, stop in for a pint and some food!

The food was delicious and staff are nice however it seems that the younger staff are overworked, you can benefit from more staff especially on busier days

Very good food. Had the small plates special offer and it was lovely. Definitely rivaled similar tapas type meals in Spain.

The Farmers Arms can be relied on to provide the most excellent food at realistic prices. Quite an ambitious menu, actually, with numerous 'specials' on our most recent visit as well. This is one of our (relatively) locals, and quite hard for strangers to find, so we heartily recommend it. Friendly service also and a good range of drinks. If I had one very minor adverse comment this visit: the table was sticky; whatever you clean them with (and it WAS clean) - change it! We'll be back.

Just had an amazing meal at The Farmers Arms in Llanybri! The food was excellent, home-cooked and such good value for money. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

Great place, good friendly manner. Has a pool room, bar and resterant

Outstanding sunday lunch, all home made & such a variety of meats & vegetables. My new favourite place! Honestly everyone is so friendly & the place is really relaxed. The Chef is amazing. If you want home cooked sunday lunch - this is where you need to be!

My partner and I went for a Sunday dinner and it did not disappoint. Outstanding home cooked food and service with a smile. Highly recommend and can’t wait to visit the cosy, homely venue again

An absolutely outstanding Sunday carvery. Good choice of meats ( beef, pork,turkey and gammon) and an amazing selection of vegetables.

Sunday lunch was amazing everything tasted superb and plentiful. Staff very friendly and good value for money. Highly recommend

Went for an early Christmas family lunch. Great food, great service and good value. If only every restaurant was this good.

Excellent. Short notice booking. Lovely carvery

We had Sunday lunch there over the weekend - a first visit to this place for us. We were able to help ourselves to the carvery immediately and the drinks came quickly. There was loads of meat and veg options and friendly staff. The food was first class, amongst the best Sunday lunches we’ve ever experienced and we will definitely be returning here.

First time back under new ownership and the experience did not disappoint. We had a great meal (the curry special (half and half, obviously) and the burger). Food and service were excellent. Great value for money. Family and dog friendly. Clean and cosy with wood burner and pool table. Unexpected treat for the dog from the kitchen.

Went Thursday evening with friends for the Thursday special of burger and a pint for £12 We were greeted by Ryan, our waiter We sat in the restaurant which was warm and comfortable, but there was also a bar area with log fire We all chose a beef burger with bacon, fried onions, and relish. It was an ample portion of succulent juicy burger which also came with chips, coleslaw, onion rings and a jug of sauce for dipping Ryan ( our waiter) was the most delightful young man, he was friendly, courteous and polite,. He was keen to know we were happy with our meal but at the same time unobtrusive This place is dog friendly, ample parking, and also had a good vegetarian menu It was easily accessed so suitable for wheelchair users I will thoroughly recommend this pub/ restaurant and will definitely be returning

A group of 4 friends went to The Farmers Arms this evening We were greeting by Ryan who was our waiter tonight We sat in the restaurant area, which was clean warm and comfortable . There was also a bar area with a real fire We all had the special this evening of burger and a pint for £12 This really was a special, a large thick juicy burger with bacon, relish, fried onions and salad . It was accompanied by a generous helping of chips, onion rings, coleslaw and a delicious jug of sauce The flavour was outstanding, it was brilliant value for money and in lovely surroundings Ryan was attentive and polite without being pushy and a credit to this establishment We will certainly return and highly recommend this pub / restaurant

Just had an awesome family meal out at the Farmers Arms Llanybri. The ambience of the place has changed hugely for the better under recent change of ownership. Comfortable, well lit and decorated we were served the most delicious food you could wish for. The sea bass was beautifully cooked and tasty, the farmhouse beef on a mash bed with peas and red wine gravy was to die for. The beef just fell apart perfectly. Other family members had fish and chips (equally tasty) , a burger, and the hunters chicken all really cooked well with beautiful presentation. A child’s meal of Mac and Cheese was also a winner. We were served very attentively by a very pleasant young man who went out of his way to ensure we had everything we needed including a pudding menu to which we couldn’t say no… 😋😋😋 see pictures of the Sundaes … On top of it all, prices are reasonable for everything too. Can’t go wrong. Definitely be taking friends and family there again. Well done Farmers Arms 😃🙏🍽️

Just had yet another excellent Sunday lunch. Marvellous !food and value terrific. Grandmas home made puddings and desserts are just great. Well deserving of a visit,support local independent business or they won't be there,and the farmers is well worth supporting

Lovely pub made to feel very welcome by staff and all the locals very dog friendly. Food was excellent we visited 4 out of our 7 nights and will definitely visit again when we are in the area highly recommend

A cracking little pub with plenty of heart. Food is delicious, beers a plenty and amazing banter with the locals.

Had ny small wedding tea here.. Staff were lovely, helpful and every one of my guests loved the food. Affordable and so pretty. Thanks everyone to Wayne Ryan and everyone.

Really made to feel welcome with the dog, treats and a bowl of water for him. Staff are super friendly and the food is excellent

Ryan was absolutely fab, always happy to help with whatever we were doing, and took lovley photos for us :)

Popped in for a quick pint and received a very warm welcome. The landlord even bought doggy beer (water) out for our dog. Apparently, Sunday lunch is frequently a sell out with over a 100 covers which is impressive in what is a fairly remote location.

Great food, friendly accommodating service. Thank you

Would recommend this public house to anyone that is in the district,the landlord and staff could not be any move helpful and the food was amazing and lots of it,will make sure that I visit it again on next year's holiday.

A fantastic Sunday roast! Excellent carvery, lots of choice, vegetarian options, amazing desserts, great value, friendly staff would definitely come again if we are back in the area.

Excellent food and a good pint. Staff are friendly and helpful.Garlic mushroom starter was a meal on its own. The pork chop, mashed potatoe is a must.

Visited the Farmers Arms whilst on holiday in the area and couldn't fault it. The food was great and all the staff exceptionally friendly and helpful. The dogs, Barney and Finn were made very welcome. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you again

Excellent sunday lunch with beautiful puddings. Children enjoyed. Very polite and friendly staff. Enjoyed by thé whole family. Most definitely will be back

Locals making a first visit. Exceeded all expectations. Polite, proactive staff, good food and plenty of it, and at a fair price. Even the kids are well looked after. Just an all round pleasurable, no fuss, dining experience. Beer was good and well kept. Many pubs could learn a lot from here. We will be back.

Awsome food venue and atmosphere great portions thanks

Lovely little pub, extremely clean with comfortable seating. The food was excellent and the stack burger is easily in the top 3 burgers I've ever had (yes it really is that good). The young lady who served us was very polite, helpful and kind. All in all a lovely meal in a lovely village pub. Highly recommended

Amazing Sunday lunch, fantastic tasting carvery selection served by a very friendly and enthusiastic chef (he obviously loves his work). Friendly and helpful service by everyone at the pub. Great tasting beer to complement the food. Amazing value for money. Highly recommend a visit

A varied straightforward menu, very reasonably priced and food came with good friendly service. Excellent value for money.

Ate here two nights in a row while staying in a family members caravan. Staff friendly and atmosphere cosy. Hunters chicken and lasagne on the first night were fantastic. Steak on the second night was a bit meh, asked for rare was more like medium, still overall a nice place.

Had a lovely meal while staying at a local campsite. Good Food and good size portions. The chocolate brownies we shared for dessert were amazing. Staff there were lovely.

Lovely meal last week great friendly staff .thanks a lot

My first visit since under new ownership and very pleased to say it was excellent. I booked Sunday lunch for visiting family and myself and all were impressed by the food quality and service. The staff made us welcome and nothing was too much trouble, well done. Our visit was made even more pleasant by the sunshine and service in the garden. So if like me you were hesitant based on the previous ownership dining experience have no fears you won't be disappointed. I'm pleased to say I can highly recommend the Sunday lunch and will be returning soon.

Very good Sunday carvery, best in the area.

Not a very good experience, food wasn’t hot.

Good value pub food, great staff. 🥰👍🏼

It's been a decade since I visited this pub, the first pub i visited in Wales. I have very fond memories of it. And the locals were very generous with their welcome. I will be back.

Called for Sunday lunch and what a lovely lunch we had everything was freshly cooked and hot the staff are very friendly and helpful and the chef even gave our little dog some meat for her birthday we really recommend this pub and will definitely be back

Beautiful pub in a pretty village. Lovely beer garden. Dog friendly. Good, homecooked food & large portions. Brilliant, friendly staff & efficient service.

Awesome. Love it here. Great local pub. Friendly by name ........

Absolutely brilliant. The food is freshly cooked and portions are big. The staff are amazing and all are extremely attentive. It is dog friendly in the bar area and Luna our working cocker spaniel knows the way into the pub already. It has been our...

As stated by another customer .... best Sunday carvery I have ever had. Delicious and plentiful portions.

Great atmosphere and great homily feel to the pub, with local support giving a nice warm welcome. Food is outstanding 👌

Wonderful carvery, brilliant chef and seasoned food, very recommended 👌

Friendly staff, goo home cooked food and a lovely family atmosphere, keep up the good work!

The best carvery I have ever eaten. Really nice fresh veg and a selection of 4 meats and home made stuffing like no where else. And the wife had cheesecake for afters that was clearly home made. Excellent service and very reasonable price. REALLY EXCELLENT

Excellent food .we had roast lunch and it was beautiful and great variety. The staff were attentive and the atmosphere was friendly

A lovely, welcoming pub! Very clean and cosy rooms, my wife and I felt very comfortable just passing through for a drink. The staff were very friendly and made us feel at home. It was New Years Eve, and we were offered some of their lovely buffet that was for later celebrations. Highly recommended!

A Delicious Sunday lunch-10/10 for Hospitality-quick friendly service and warm welcome by all of the team well done to each and everyone of you we both thoroughly enjoyed-Thank you x

Great Sunday Lunch at a fantastic lunch.

Double birthday family meal tonight 😃🎂 Absolutely delicious well cooked food in comfortable surroundings. Fought my son on a challenge to eat the mixed grill 😂 which beat us both but was really tasty. They catered for my 9yr old grandson too with a good size child’s meal. Service was very attentive and friendly without being imposing, and the final bill was excellent value for money. Can’t praise this family run business highly enough. Hope they are around for a long time to come so we can recommend to friends. We will definitely be back for other events. 100% worth booking in for! 💚

Wonderful Sunday lunch really enjoyed.

Sunday carvery was very delicious. Great value for money.

Fantastic friendly and welcoming family run pub/restaurant. Lovely ambiance and first rate service. And the food – wow. Everything was so good. Highly recommend.

Lovely village pub. Food is great, chunky chips, nice burgers, fish and chips. Good ale. Well worth a visit
