We went to the gateway resort just to have food and a drink. I had faggots, mushy peas, mash and gravy. My partner had the ham egg and chips. Both meals came out and looked lovely. Not disappointed when we ate them either. Totally enjoyed every bit. Very reasonable price too as they do a half price offer Monday to Thursday. Thank you gateway we will be back

visited resort for the first ever time as a break for me and my daughter before heading back to school. Entertainment was brilliant. Gary was amazing with the children. Food was always nice. Staff were helpful. Big shout out to James and Michael on security they were very kind, helpful, pleasant and nothing was to much for them. Great security team. Will be returning again. Recommended to family and friends.

Visited the resort Monday afternoon with my 3 grandchildren and their parents, did the Encanto afternoon. We all had a fabulous time, entertainment was brilliant, the restaurant/entertainment area was spacious (which is just as well as it was packed out). Outside area was well kept and clean. Had to wait a bit for our food but when it arrived it was piping hot and very tasty. Grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed the dancing and play area outside.(it was too busy for the inside play area, but we hope to visit again. Staff friendly. Very impressed with the whole venue. Looking forward to our next visit very soon.

I take my daughter to the soft play area. Good value for money (only £2 for a two year old) however the food is quite pricey. Minimum of £5 spend to use card which can be a bit of an inconvenience. Staff are always rushed off their feet as it’s always busy there, however they’re always helpful and polite. The soft play area could do with a good scrub as some of the equipment has thick layers of dust on it. They have recently redone their under 3s areas which is great, however there are constantly much older children running around in there which is concerning when you have babies crawling around, the staff don’t seem to do anything about this. Overall, good place to visit.

The santas grotto was really magical, with the elves then Mrs Clause & Santa. One downfall we felt it was a little rushed and we couldn't really take photos of the children. £40 for 8 of us which we were out in under 10mins. An extra 10 mins would of been nice and maybe a better waiting system as it seemed everyone was crammed in the American diner with over an hour wait. Not brilliant with no social distancing in place. We also decided to have carvery which I wish we hadn't to be honest, the food was tasteless and you were literally touching backs with the people sitting behind you. It seemed to be cram as many in rather than being able to be seated comfortably. We normally love this place, the play area is good as is the pool but on this occasion we weren't overly impressed.

this place is a part of my childhood and i have great memories here, i recommend this place because it’s clean, it has many facilities, and is a great caravan site and is great for families, the pool is good, so is the play area, i have been coming here since 2008, and the place has changed for the good.

I used to come here when i was around 2 a long time ago i would go nearly every few days with my father since i live in Bynea (the same village where the gateway resort is) now YEARS later this place has changed so much, it is more appealing the pool and changing rooms are much cleaner, there's an arcade thing, the play area is now tidy and the dining experience has improved. a few years ago this was much different the place was small and packed and had the stench of chip fat. honestly its improved so much, this place holds a huge part of my childhood <3 thank you

Have never been here before & always been unsure due to mixed reviews about the place. I have to say we really enjoyed, very large restaurant & both had food which we enjoyed. We then had a look around and look the little one for a play in the play area, which he loved. There is so much facilities here though which I had no idea about: Outside mini golf Inside & outside play area Swimming pool Activities throughout the summer like pants, karaoke, wrestling etc Nice bar area for adults. Lots to do & would return.

We have stayed on this site nearly every year for many years and we have seen a lot of changes over the years.Positives are - onsite restaurant, bar, shop, swimming pool, mini golf and children’s play area. Staff are approachable and very friendly and explain everything to you. Security assist you to your pitch.Negatives are - prices in the restaurant have gone up, sometimes it is cheaper to eat elsewhere. Only one toilet/shower block between 7 fields which i am very surprised that more toilet/shower blocks have not yet been built. The toilet/shower block is very dirty with rusted shower heads and brown stains down the walls. Broken toilet seats, faeces on the floor in the gents toilets. I know there are toilets in the restaurant but there should be more toilet/shower blocks accessible 24hrs a day and kept clean.There is no pull in area for new arrivals or departing vehicles. Customers who come to stay or depart from the campsite either have to block parked cars/empty parking spaces or they have to park their vehicles further away on the small gravel area on the grass which is not ideal for people with mobility problems. I would love to see the standards of this site improve as we have made many friends with other users of this site.

Fab place to have a child’s party, the soft play area is big enough to entertain but small enough to keep an eye on them and also very secure with the staff keeping a close eye on the exit. The party room is exclusive and large enough for food and a small disco/entertainer. The hot food option is great with plenty of choices and you don’t have to pay if anyone drops out on the day. Our four year old had a great party, big thanks to the staff especially Levi for ensuing we had everything we needed.

The gate was excellent just a couple of months ago. I notice so many awful traits now that weren’t there previously. The restaurant looks more like a room you’d play bingo in with the tables in lines. I got sat next to a group of strangers who could hear my conversation. The blonde manager seems to have gone, who was excellent and very polite so that’s a pity. Overall the gate has just gone downhill! My food was cold and my chips were like cardboard. I am so disappointed that what was once one my favourite places to go for a quick meal has now turned into another rubbish restaurant I’ll never visit.

9 of us went for a family meal Saturday April 28th. Of the 9, 2 meals were served, finished and cleared away before the remaining meals arrived. This only happened when 2 of our party asked for their money back. 2 meals were not satisfactory and the so called manager, who was very scruffy, point blank refused to rectify or refund. He was indeed extremely rude, walking away saying "come and see me tommorrow". On overhearing this, i asked him if he thought his customer service and attitude was acceptable. He smirked and walked away muttering that the customer is not always right. This was a very unpleasant experience and i would not recommend this place. They need to employ a proper manager, not someone who we had the misfortune to deal with tonight who clearly has no idea about running a restaurant nor talking to paying customer. He was certainly no professional.

We had my sons 4th birthday party yesterday and it was amazing! My son had the most special afternoon! He loved the play area and he had a special guest at his party which was a lush surprise for him, the black power ranger came and an entertainer and they played party games with them, all the kids had a ball dancing and laughing! Luckily my son didn't really mind that the power ranger was a lady but he did tell me later on in the evening that he noticed ha, but he had the best time and didn't care.

We stayed at the park over Easter and ate here twice. The first time was for the curry night. All 3 of us cleared our plates and really enjoyed the very reasonably priced curry. We ate again a couple of nights later and were not disappointed. The lasagne was amazing and unlike most places you could see it was 'homemade. The fish and chips were cooked perfectly and my teen enjoyed the burger.

I recently had my daughter's 5th party here. From beginning to end the staff could not do enough to help. They were very polite and helpful during my initial enquiry over the phone and managed to arrange for Tinkerbell (my daughter's character of choice ) to provide entertainment for the party. On they day we were greeted by Payton, who was on hand to help through out. Nothing was too much trouble. Payton helped us add our own personal touched to the party room before everyone arrived and reassured us that we only had to ask if we needed help with anything. The children all got to have an hour to play in the frames and then were called in to the party room. Music was playing in the background throughout and once the children had finished their food, Payton came over to my daughter and whispered in her ear that Tinkerbell was on her way. They both peered through the window in the door excitedly as Tinkerbell made her way towards them. My daughter was overcome with awe when she was Tinkerbell, it was so magical! Tinkerbell was lovely with my daughter and the other children, after singing Happy Birthday and helping my daughter blow out the candles she painted all their nails, sang and danced with them and then posed for some photos.Certainly a party to remember - Thank you very much! :)

There was a family of 15 of us today went to the gateway in Llanelli for Sunday lunch and to watch the game as advertised by them. Once we were seated and about to eat our lunch, game was about to start and we was wondering why the music was still playing as the anthems were just starting. We spoke to staff members requesting to have the sound put on, all we had back was it's mother's day and if we wanted to have sound we would have to go into the back room. How we was meant to do that is totally beyond me as you couldn't put a pin between people in the back room. There was a number of people complaining about the same issue, to a point where people started to leave. We over heard a lady speak to the owner who said it's mother's day so no sound could be put on, but it is on in the back room, again how we was expecting us to go in there I don't know as I am not a magician and couldn't magic up space for a table. His attitude to this matter was just disgusting and became obvious that it was just pure greed with him. Even the bar staff and waiting staff were disgusted that regular customers were leaving due to the lack of sound. They advertised wales game playing so that was the reason we booked for, they did not say anything about wales fame on but without sound or that it would only be on with sound in back room. There was so many people there complaining and we told a few people on their way in the situation and they left. We were meeting more family members there this evening also for the Adele show but due to the ignorance and arrogance of the owner we left. We will not be returning, I do not understand how u can advertise the rugby and not have any sound totally pathetic. The dinner also was awful today luke warm is an understatement, gravy was like water. All around an awful visit and will be avoiding this place in the future. I feel sorry for the staff having to work for this cocky arrogant money grabbing owner. Good luck to the staff there u all work so hard, shame about your boss.

Went with a group of friends for our Christmas night out. We had the Christmas menu. The garlic mushroom starters were luke warm and hardly any mushrooms. Carvery was lovely. Ordered cheesecake and it came out frozen. Complained to the waitress and she said he should have told you it was frozen when you ordered. Never had a frozen cheesecake before! The chocolate fudge cake was also a tiny sliver. Extremely disappointed when they were passing our table with lovely huge pieces of a different cheesecake for other tables. Also as it is a caravan park there were kids running around the room. Will not return there for a meal again. Awful

If you are looking for a friendly and welcoming break this is the place to go.The adjoining caravan park is clean,secure and represents great value for money.The Gate in offers superb food, slightly more expensive but you only get what you pay for and in this case the food is superb.All cooked to order. As a suggestion try a "Big Boy" breakfast. At £6.50 it's huge and worth every penny.

I visited the gate inn, this weekend with my family as we decide to go camping there. There was loads of problem such as the toliets for the people staying there were not up to standard, the staff spend more time sitting down eating on the tables and also hiding behind the bar eating, we had to keep cleaning our own table, also taking our glasses to the bar because no one came round to do it. The bar staff did not crack a smile once, they would not serves us taking chips as we was staying in a tent so couldnt make them. They said on there website page there was things on every night but when we took the children to kids clubs but they didnt do anything for them because there wasnt enough children. overall i would never camp there again!!

The Gate Inn offers a wonderful welcome for families. I haven't camped there as I only live down the road from there.The restaurant building have recently been renovated and has now grown in size immensely. It's kept very clean and tidy. The play zone for the children is a great place for the little ones to let off some energy, it's safe as there is a safety gate stopping anyone coming in or going out. The swimming pool is a lovely size, busy on the weekends obviously and much quieter in the week, good temperature too.The food is always good here, chips are homemade and are really good. Veggie curry is fine for vegans, children's meals are great for little ones and Sunday carvery is great too, advised to book for Sunday as can be rammed.

Visited on a Sunday for carvery which was lovely in itself but the wait was unacceptable. We were told we'd be called up to join the queue for the carvery but after waiting for 45 minutes we inquired with the server who was co-ordinating tables who told us he'd forgotten about us and just to join the queue which was almost half way around the room by this time. In total we waited for an hour before actually being served. Lovely food, poor customer service and be prepared for a long wait. Not impressed.

Having been to the Gate for kids parties, I was looking for somewhere to hold my 40th birthday party in December. These guys were amazing. They prepared all of the food( which was meant for 35, but you could have fed 200 people), which was great. We had use of the private bar all night, whilst there was live entertainment taking place in the other room. They arranged all of this at short notice and whilst they were busy redeveloping the building. Really reasonable price for the whole thing. Outstanding and amazing staff. The manager has to have as much credit as is possible to give. Brilliant.

Every time we have visited the gate Inn we have always had top quality food, friendly staff and very clean bar and restaurant. They are not the cheapest but you do get a lot and very good quality food. Speaking to the staff every thing is cooked from fresh.

I take my granddaughter there every Friday swimming, they are so friendly and we get to stay in as long as we want. Then go into children's play area they have separate areas for the under 3s. You can order food or just have a snack and coffee. It is very affordable with plenty of parking and disabled access.

Had a lovely few days here with the Grandchildren, plenty of room for them to play. Also take them swimming there during the week as it is a lovely quiet pool for small children. Lots of work being done to extend and improve the facilities, the Sunday Lunch is excellent too.

Great place to have a party. We recently had our little ones party here, and everything was great! The staff were amazing, and the faculties were brilliant. The staff couldn't do enough to help us, and really made the party shine! The play area was as usual clean, not too crowded and great for the children. Toby's party included swimming, so the pool was cleared out for us, which was fantastic and every child had a great time! The food was great. Would 100% use again for a party, and will continue to be a regular for the play and swim! :-) thank you to all at the gate for a fantastic party for our little one!!!

We stayed in gate as family of four with two young children facility's were lovely and clean pitches are nice and we'll kept, but unfortunately won't be visiting again as at a charge of £22 a night which I would say is a ok price, but the very disappointing part is I had to pay for us all to go swimming and play area on top which worked out at £30 a night not worth the money from a very disappointed family

We stayed here last weekend and can't believe the transformation! Revolving doors on entry, a fully stocked convenience store (needed!) and reception on the main entrance. Staff are pleasant and efficient as always, the place is beautiful. The bar manager Rhys showed us the new room opening next week, it's huge with the most amazing views across the estuary you can imagine. Looking forward to our summer there! could imagine. The sun terrace looks amazing too

Went to visit friends who have sited their caravan here and it's like a construction site and what's more disgusting is the state in the toilets in the bar out if 3 toilets 2 were not working and the smell was terrible , No toilet paper in the only one that's was working, This site is nowhere as clean when it first opened and looks like it's all about making money now which is a shame, 90% of the tables had reserved on them for the residents who were nowhere to be seen which was a shame at 3.30 in the afternoon , Lets hope this review will changes things for the better

Since finding the Gate, we have been regular visitors for Sunday lunch. The food is amazing! Especially the mash! The staff are polite and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Mum is gluten free and they alway cater for her with a freshly made gluten free gravy. Lots of work going on in the complex at the moment and it seems to be getting bigger and better every week. Well done The Gate Inn, you get our

I've had Sunday lunches in most places in and around Llanelli but nothing comes anywhere near close to the gate Inn The meat is outstanding you have a choice of three or if you feel up to it have all three Choice of six vegetables Not counting the cauliflower cheese and roast potatoes and a choice of two gravy's either a thick gravy my choice always or a thin gravy.Nothing is too much of an effort for the excellent staff Try it you won't be disappointed

I took my three year old daughter here and was rather pleased, it's not the biggest soft play but still very good value! Plenty of things to do and the food was great! I had the homemade chicken curry which came quickly and was more than enough for me, while her kids sausage, peas and chips was only a £1!!! The staff were very helpful and polite and even though the main building is having work done the place is clean and even the workmen were polite when I walked past!I'll certainly return soon!

We went here today as a party of 10 adults and 10 children to celebrate one of the youngsters birthdays. We have visited here a number of times before and today didn't disappoint. We got there around 5ish and the children headed for the Soft Play area. The area is always well maintained and clean. Whilst the children played the adults were able to enjoy refreshments from the snack bar. The cost of play was reasonable for the children and there was no charge for the adults (this is not always the case in some soft play areas). Later we moved on to the restaurant and bar area where there was a lovely family environment and there was a number of staff available to take orders, etc. We ordered food at the bar and the food was served within 15 minutes and all arrived at the same time - which is remarkable for a party of 20. After the food, things livened up a bit with some entertainment for the children and there was a vip guest, 'Gloria the Crocodile' who arranged some games and the kids were thrilled with their prizes for their efforts. Eyes down then for a game of bingo - the compare was hysterical and although we did not win the jackpot we all thoroughly enjoyed. Just like to say that we all had a wonderful time and the staff could not do enough for us to make us feel welcome - they even provided us with coffees after the snack bar had closed. Nothing was too much trouble for them. I would thoroughly recommend The Gate Inn for an afternoon out and we will certainly be going back soon.

I have to say the standard of the food is superb. We have eaten at The Gate on numerous occasions and you cannot fault the quality of the food and the service provided by the staff. Everything is so reasonably priced and such a great choice on the menu. They also have a good selection for children which a lot of places don't seem to have these days. Keep up the good work........ We will be coming back to see you soon.

Fantastic place, free live entertainment every weekend, we watched "just Debs", so good! I saw the poster for Sunday lunch, it couldn't have been better, the chef even gave me a take-away box for my dog. This really is a hidden gem. We really recommend this place, there's a play area for the children too. Staff couldn't be more helpful.

This was a great spot for lunch! We stopped off on spec and I was pleased to see vegan options. I had the vegan burger which was lovely. My parents had the chicken burger and the gammon, and they were equally pleased with the food, the portions and the service. I also had a vegan crumble tart with custard which was delicious! Overall a very pleasant experience, although prices were a little on the high side.

Brilliant seafood starters. Cosy atmosphere and great service. Varied menu encompassing Welsh specialities and tasty pub grub, nice cold beer and soft drinks. Definitely recommend the chips as they are very crispy. Mushy peas with a twist. We enjoyed our meal in the secluded den watched over by a giant grizzly bear. A must visit if you are in the area!

Stopped off here for lunch with my elderly mum and was pleasantly surprised. Whilst the seating was adequate the staff were very friendly and cleared vacated tables promptly. The drinks and food menu’s had plenty of choice and I decided to have the jacket potato with chicken curry which came with a salad garnish. The portion was great and the chicken curry was delicious…mum had a toasted sandwich which came with a small salad, coleslaw and some crisps. Both very reasonably priced and would not hesitate to recommend if you are looking for a lunch time bite. We will return.
