The Half Moon in Carmarthenshire

Visited recently for my son's birthday as he wanted a steak and they have one on the kids menu. The food was good, although my daughter's steak was overcooked, however they did replace it and the second one was spot on. There is parking to the rear, however the spaces are very small. There is some on road parking also available in the evenings after 6pm without restrictions. The service and atmosphere was good, although a very large group came in half way through our meal and it was very loud then. Overall a good meal and location

Called by on 18/04/25 had a mixture of starters mains and puds could not fault, staff were spot on, had a couple of pints of Guinness which was also very good, prices were very reasonable, atmosphere was also very good. Would recommend and will be back soon. Brilliant menu plenty of choice something for everyone.

Found this place on the way back from a day out. Food took a little while but well worth the wait. All freshly cooked, not a scrape was left. Great deals, nice drinks. Staff were friendly. Couple parking spaces out the back, nice little seating area. Restaurant room, we sat in the bar with the sport. Looks newly decorated and clean. Seems they also have a good delivery/catering service. Would recommend

We’re down for the weekend and just picked this place at random, to be honest wasn’t expecting too much. We were pleasantly surprised, all the food was piping hot, all home made, or so it seemed, generous portions, and very tasty for “a pup meal”. Would defo come back to here. Staff were friendly and helpful, didn’t rush us to eat, 6 of us with a mixture of staters and all mains with sides (we couldn’t manage pudding, which I I was gutted about) all come to £120. Which normally at home would be closer to £200.

Absolutely lovely, thank you!! ☺️

Food was excellent and there was plenty of meat and vegetables. Would order again

It was delivered to wrong address, but Mothers day and an easy oversight. But maybe check extra notes next time.

My carvery arrived 2hrs after ordering it. It was lukewarm and the packaging was all soggy and food coming through. I understand things happen but I wasn't a happy customer today.

Too many TV's - music on - noisey very busy, not enough staff who were not particularly welcoming. Food was over cooked - plates have shrunk for carvery. Lost it's personal touch I'm afraid.

The half moon is the regular, when visiting Llanelli. Staff always super friendly, dogs allowed and the food is superb. The Guinness is a good pour too!

Absolutely lovely! Thank you!! ☺️

Booked a table for Sunday dinner for 4 adults. The staff were extremely rude and put us on a table for 2 people and said we would all fit on it. You couldn't fit more than 2 plates on the table. We asked could we move to a table that was big enough for 4 as it was empty in there and we were told no as these tables were booked by others. I had also pre booked a table there. Really disappointed with the attitude of the staff so we left without eating as we couldn't fit our plates on the table Would never go here again

Absolutely wonderful, thank you!!! ☺️

Me and two friends came to this establishment to watch the Cup final. We opened the door to obviously enter and we were immediately told to shut the door by a staff member by the name of Shaun as we were letting the cold which is pretty pathetic. Went the bar to order soft drinks and water and Shaun the staff member told another staff member to take our time with us as we held the door open for too long which is another pathetic reason. My self and my friend ordered a soft drink and my other friend wanted a glass of tap water. He was immediately told by Shaun that they couldn’t serve him tap water and made him pay for a Bottled glass water. I made a complaint to Shaun that it was petty that he made my friend pay for water and he replied with “should’ve shut the door when I told you too”. This experience has really made me not want to dine here again as I don’t need to put up with rude staff like Shaun.

Amazing, as always!! Thank you so much!! ☺️

Beautiful! Thank you so much ☺️

Excellent Sunday Roast for the whole family without the stress of cooking.

Never had a bad meal here. Gravy on the carvery is the best in Llanelli. Just good vibes always.

Lovely food, absolutely delicious 😋

Had a fantastic evening for my husbands 50th ,large table booked ,food was outstanding and service amazing, had the best welcome from Sean and all the staff ,cannot recommend this place enough ,👏👏

Lovely as always!! Thank you!! ☺️

We’ve ordered 4 roast dinners and every single one was missing one or more items, a bit disappointing

lovely food, not sure why I ended up with 6 pots of gravy, but I like gravy.

Lovely Sunday dinner often order from here

absolutely beautiful I would have liked to see Sprout's on the choice of veg

lovely food, the batter was a bit hard.

Lovely food. Loved cockle starter. Pork dish with leek and mushroom great. Service spot on. Thoroughly recommend

Lovely, as always! Thank you!! ☺️

the food was worth waiting for, absolutely delicious. , 😋

We went for Christmas Dinner 2024 and I can't say enough, everything was wonderful from our table, the atmosphere, fantastic service and of course the delicious food. We had 4 courses all of which were tasty and well presented. I was particularly impressed by the homemade starter and the cheese cake dessert. Great touches like a beautifully displayed table with decent Christmas crackers! Well done The halfmoon! 👏

Always a friendly welcome from Sean, Beth and the rest of the staff. Great pint and quality food . Dog friendly too, which is a bonus

CALLED IN TONIGHT FIRST TIME BACK FOR A FEW WEEKS,NOTHING CHANGED FABOLOUS FOOD AND SERVICE AND DOG FRIENDLY. GREAT FOOD AND STILL FEELS LIKE A LOCAL PUB FRIENDLY REGULARS BE BACK NEXT WEEK THANKS ALL SEE YOU SOON

Our goto for.steak baguettes. Absolutely delish. Services great. Atmosphere fab price amazing 👏

I have got to save.I have ordered a few times a grill mix, and it's been amazing, and I've also got to say the delivery driver. She is amazing as well.She's very polite kind

We visited on Saturday lunch time and had a lovely meal, there was a great choice on the menu, all of our food was beautiful. The staff working were fab and really friendly. Thank you

Had Christmas dinner and the whole experience was great staff are very friendly

My wife and I had Christmas lunch at the Half Moon yesterday, we cannot congratulate the staff enough for the service from start to finish. There was more than enough food, excellent quality and accommodated my wife who is vegan. We have already booked for next Xmas. Well done Matthew and all his staff.

Update... popped in on Xmas eve with my family and had another fantastic meal. Tasty, fresh, generous portions and all served by very welcoming staff. Amazing place to visit for food and drinks. Called in 2 weeks ago and had a fantastic meal. Have had great meals previously and cannot fault the food, service and prices. Extremely friendly place with a broad menu that delivers tasty and plentiful meals. Highly recommended.

What a find! Our experience of this pub was amazing from start to finish. Sion was so helpful and friendly from the beginning with our phone call. We arrived 10 mins later to find he had reserved us a nice table in the bar (because we brought our dog). The food was absolutely amazing and the Biscoff cheesecake (well done Tom) has ruined all other cheesecakes forever! The local customers were so friendly too. Overall it gave us some wonderful memories and we will make sure we return whenever we are within 30 minutes of this fabulous place. We can’t recommend this pub enough.

The meal was excellent. The steak was just right.

Lovely place food delicious as always

We were on holiday in Llanelli in May and we had a fantastic Sunday lunch here at the half moon inn one of the best Sunday lunch we’ve had so when the wife asked me where shall we go to do the Christmas shopping this year I immediately said let’s go back to Llanelli for a few days so I can have another Sunday carvery lunch at the half moon inn. The food is amazing and worth the 4 hours drive down from Llanberis north wales. Otis my dog really enjoyed the turkey slices he had Alun, Grace and Otis

Food was fantastic, went down really well, great!!!

Beautiful as always, thank you!! ☺️

Amazing!! Thank you so much! ☺️

Lovely as always, thank you! ☺️

Food is fantastic, one of the best around, pizza is so fresh, keep up the good work

Beautiful! Thank you so much!! ☺️

the food came late,but honestly it was worth the wait, cos the food was lovely

absolutely beautiful as normal

Lovely food, generous portion but was an hour late - however a quick warm up in the microwave and all is well. Ordered the biscoff cheesecake as well which was delicious

The food was very cold and the tray for the food was damaged

Food was excellent.. My kids are so fussy and picky with their food but they cleared the spaghetti bolognaise and garlic bread. The mixed grill was amazing, best I’ve had in a long time. Would definitely recommend and will be ordering from here again

Beautiful food, lovely atmosphere. Shame about the extremely rude waitress. Had an attitude with us as soon as we walked in, we were a family of 6 and made no attempt to make us feel welcome. Wrong starters came out and blamed us for ordering the wrong thing! Will not be returning unfortunately.

Absolutely stunning! Thank you! ☺️

Worst sunday dinner ive had by far frozen veg frozen mash potato no take at all very disappointed and definitely not worth £12.95

Wasn’t a problem because I had the family with me and the time flew

Delivery was slightly late but this wasn't an issue. Food was good but a little disappointed that one meal came without Yorkshire pudding and parsnip.

So glad the minted lamb is back my favourite with the dophinoise potatoes

cheesecake was like a box of soup

Tried this pub as recommended by several people. It did not disappoint. Food was really tasty. The atmosphere was great. Will definitely visit again.

A fabulous service….and fabulous food!

the food is freezing cold I won't be ordering again from here

The lamb was absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much! ☺️

This is my first time, and my last time ordering from here. the food had no taste to it the gravy was like water. The carrots. Were undercooked and really hard. I asked for no mushy peas, but I still put them in there the roast potatoes were slimy and the parsnips were hard as a rock. I will recommend my friends and family stay well away from this place. Absolutely terrible.

Gutted that you have stopped serving homemade chips. The ones I had on my last visit reminded me of the ones you get from the Chinese. Hopefully you will be putting these back on the menu.

Passing through the area, we rolled up: two adults, three dogs. Lovely welcome for all five of us. The food was superb and the service was so friendly. Freebies for the hounds as well. We left a well-deserved tip, which was much appreciated. Recommended. We'll be back.

The perfect pub 🍻. Dog friendly and really good food.

lovely food as always. would be nice to have the calories on the meals too if it's possible.

the food was absolutely delicious

Delicious and on time. Lush munn 😍x

Beautiful as always! Thank you!!☺️

Food was luke warm when it came and the gravy was cold. Meal was tasty when warm but not as nice as I have had from here previously because I had to reheat it.

Collecting the food was no problem. Quick service. On the other hand our food, the roast potatoes were solid, the garden peas were hard and the both dinner were cold. Very disappointed

First ever Sunday lunch delivered from there today highly recommended was stunning

it was lovely as always but I did say no cabbage yet still had some on my dinner when it arrived

The Sunday dinner here is incredible! The staff were warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was delightful. We usually come here just for drinks, and it’s always a friendly place, but this was our first time trying the food, and it did not disappoint. The meal was delicious, and the service made the experience even better. We’re so glad we decided to dine here and will definitely be back for more. This place has become one of our favorites, not just for drinks, but now for food as well!

Excellent food, fast delivery and piping hot

perfect no complaints best carvery in Llanelli hands down

stunning food highly reccomend

Pizzas were amazing, very happy, will defo be ordering again

Food was great as always, although the baguette I ordered had the wrong filling! Cheesecake was fab!

Fantastic atmosphere, fantastic food, big up to the chef, absolutely appalling customer service. Greeted into the restaurant as if we were trespassing, wrong order on starters, no apology , just shown on a tablet that the order was what we were given. No! It was not what we asked for! Spoken to like we were in the wrong, bar one staff member Amy, who was lovely throughout .

Absolutely amazing, thank you so much!! 😊

I came to the pub tonight at 10:45 to order a can of coke and sit with my friends, and Beth who works there made me order 3 cans of coke and refused to order me one because ‘they were closing’ even though there were people drinking, it states they were open till 12am online and she was really rude saying if your planning on staying in the back theres no point, she is rude and makes me not want to go there because of her service its a shame because its a lovely pub and all the other staff are lovely.

Absolutely beautiful, thank you ☺️

Absolutely stunning, thank you!

Second time at the Half Moon and once again we had a great meal. Booked online (worked perfectly) and on arrival staff knew who we were. Shown to a nicely-prepared table and drinks order taken sharply too - excellent! Ordered two prawn cocktails, with chilli con carne and steak and mushroom pie for mains. Service was excellent and just the right amount of time between courses too, something which doesn't happen often enough. Again, excellent. Food was of very good quality with good accompaniments, and was presented well. In all, a seriously good evening out that, including drinks, came to £48. Highly recommended!
