The Lamb and Flag in Neath Port Talbot

Awful food.Crap customer service,smile next time:)

Amazing sunday lunches cooked by Glyneaths Gordon Ramsy Carl, great staff(Thank you Jess and lindzy for the pints) and very accommodating leaving you feeling comfortably full and wanting to re visit again..good blend of professionalism and warm welcome even for a drink or meal..may it continue..the staff are the foundation of any successful business.

Thank you for your awesome hospitality. The wait for the evening meal was worth it. Every plate was empty in no time. The atmosphere was brilliant and friendly. The service was lovely and nothing was too much trouble. We really appreciated you taking our booking to feed and water the four of us at short notice. Highly recommend The Lamb & Flag to everyone.

We stayed in this little gem, it is dog-friendly, which is perfect. Our room was absolutely spotless, quite huge with a comfortable bed and a comfortable sofa. the en-suite room was beautiful and we had a tv and tea/coffee making facilities. it was very relaxing. The evening meal and breakfast were both excellent, piping hot, large portions and presented nicely. All the staff were very polite, friendly and helpful - and the food was very delicious. It was quite a pleasure staying here.

Probably a one off but it was a bit shambolic unfortunately. They were a member of staff or two down, but there was half an hour delay in opening and the food was below par for the money paid. Hopefully a one off as we’d driven from Neath with high hopes and expectations from other reviews, so a little wasted trip unfortunately. Better luck next time time

Very nice best I have had in ages will come again for my steak was stunning just the way I liked it

Nice lounge restaurant off the bar. Good mains, had the chicken Tikka curry, with rice & chips plus a poppadom. Good portions size and home made chips. Very friendly helpful staff. Live singer in the bar from 8pm and sounded good.

Popped in for lunch, food was fantastic and portion were outstanding! Steak was better than any steak house I have been to. Helen the manager and her sister were amazing, so helpful and chatty, will be back again

Lovely Sunday lunch here today( carvery was spot on, service was great, thank you all, very fast service, everything was cooked nicely, meat was nice and tender, we will be back soon.

One of the best meals I've had for a long time. Service was brilliant and the price was cheap for this day and age.

Fabulous,beautiful food ,atmosphere ,will be back .Huge steak,home cooked chips ,Lovley staff .Good karaoke on a Saturday.

What can I say? An incredible pub. So homely with outstanding service! The beautiful landlady Hayle, her daughter and staff went above and beyond to make sure all of our needs were met. The food was outstanding and reasonably priced. I was there for a 60th birthday meal and we all had a wonderful time! I can't thank them all enough for making our night perfect 👌

Me and my friend came for food after work, Service and food was outstanding! Highly recommended 😁 big portions - definitely worth a visit.

Booked a table at 11.20 am for 6.15pm this evening. No chef he's gone home as the person who I spoke to did NOT write in the book/diary. So have to go somewhere else. Disappointed

Went today for the first time. Amazing food, generous portions and great service. Will definitely be going back soon 😊👍

FAb meal but the lovely Hailey give us the best welcome sat and Monday hope you stay Hailey you fit in so well with the locals xx

Turned up after refusing to call because of a calamitous situation previously and to my surprise the lamb and flag was spotless and the food was excellent keep up the good work Hayley and sky.

Ate here 2 days in a row. Not a great selection of beer. But the food more than makes up for it. Had the pie & chips one day, then the cheese & bacon burger the next. Excellent quantity and quality.

Excellent customer service, Hayley, Debbie and staff were so professional. I would highly recommended the food 😋 and service

Stayed here with my kids for 2 nights. The staff were incredibly friendly, nothing was too much for them! Food was really good. Defeated by a burger 😂 overall I'd happily stay here again! Thank you again ❤️

Me and my sister went for Sunday lunch we used to go few years ago have to say it was like the old days! Would recommend to everybody! Me and my Partner have also had a few Bar meals can’t fault anything!

I must say, since the new owners have taken over what a massive difference. The place feels warm and comforting. The food is even better than ever! all the staff were just absolutely amazing. Glynneath needed this atmosphere back 😊

The best Sunday roast I've had in a while!!!! Great portions, good price, super friendly staff. Highly recommend for families, friends or even solo.

Went on a random Tuesday afternoon hoping for some food, had the best ham egg and chips I've eaten at a pub. Fast service and friendly staff.

Myself and my wife had a meal in the afternoon. It was served very quickly and could not fault it. Will definitely be revisiting

Came as a group. Great service. No complaints. Great team!

The staff are very friendly and very helpful and will help you with what you need. Gavin the manager and Josh the cook are very professional drinks and food are very reasonable priced. Gavin will happily talk with you and have a laugh with you whilst on the job, which is very rare for staff member to do nowadays. I would 100% recommend this restaurant. It’s also child friendly.

Went to the toilet no toilet roll and the mens toilet was absolutely stinking whoever runs it now they need to have good management

We came on a sleepy Saturday lunchtime so food Waa limited only so not totally a fair assessment. Sandwiches, crepe or baked potato was all there was on offer. Chips were really tasty, but sandwiches were soggy, limp, sliced white bread and disappointing due to the bread. Simple improvement could be to toast the bread. Otherwise nice looking pub I would like to try another time when full menu is on.

Bar staff nice. Got warm from the wet nice people .

Lovely pub, but sadly for me they do not have real ale on the pump. They did have John Smith's on tap but unlikely to visit again

Rude staff on check in. No food being served that night despite being told they did serve food. Rooms very nice. Pub dingy.

Called in recently on a Friday lunchtime. It was dead! Four workmen! No lights on! No heating! Girl behind the bar Yawning! Gents loo smelly and dirty! Awful pint of Madri, tasted more like Carling! Wife's coffee was cold and all milk! No food on offer! Been going here for over 50 years and I have never seen a transformation from what was a busy friendly place. I can only envisage the shutters up again and I heard its only re-opened!

Went there yesterday disgusting food as for being clean understatement the utensil were dirty and the food must have been cooked days before and my husband home made pie I wouldn't like to say what we thought I had chicken I thought it was nanm bread cooked days before and warmed up and this is true not one word is a lie

Lovely little local pub on the main road. Friendly staff and colourful locals. Live music often at the weekend, reasonable prices

They obviously don’t educate the bar staff door jammed open for smokers pub stinks of smoke do I need to say any more run by idiots

A group of us visited this week and to say we were disappointed is an understatement! The menu is very limited, unless you like chips, chips or chips! Food was very poor, I would have been embarrassed to serve it if it was me! The place was empty which was clearly a red flag! We will definitely not be going back which is such a shame as it could be such a lovely place to eat 😞

Food was absolutely terrible. Hunters chicken, was bits of chicken and pieces of bacon ina cheesy liquid. I think it was a cheese slice melted over the food Chicken in pepper sauce, chicken pieces in a thin soup like sauce, tasteless. Chianti meatballs. 3 canon balls on top of tagliatelle with a little tomato sauce poured over. Very dry and not very appetising. Never again!

We visited this week ,what an awful experience the food was absolutely disgusting, brunt sausages Hunters chicken was chicken pieces of boiled dark meat , bacon pieces Chicken with peppercorn sauce again pieces of boiled dark meat in a bowl of peppercorn sauce that was like water We did complain but didn’t get any response AVOID AT ALL COST !

My son performed here last night and it was the nicest welcome we have had. Our friends had the food and said it was great and the locals made us feel like one of them. Highly recommend

If I could rate this zero, I would. Dirty premises with dirty tables at midday, in-sanitised condiments served with your food. I poured vinegar over my lunch which was full of dead flies! I had to push for a full meal replacement which I was then charged in full for, with no apology from staff. Avoid.

Great pub! Locals are a good laugh, big beer garden out back (perfect for those sunny days)

We spent one night there. Spacious room, nice and clean. Friendly atmosphere. The owner is a very nice man. If we weren't so tired we would definitely go into the pub downstairs, it seems cool.

Nice place to stay especially for the price! The bar tenders were good and the breakfast was amazing! Good fish and chips. Most of the patrons were good but there was definitely a local crowd that was sometimes a bit rough and unpleasant. Overall a good experience and will return.

Stayed the night in order to do the nearby 4 waterfalls walk. Had a Sunday lunch with them, not only was it delicious, but there was a good amount of it - even after the 5 hour walk we felt full! Clean, well appointed room and an absolutely fantastic breakfast. Recommended.

We live locally, so this pub is our local, we have always came here even when the previous owners were here, when it was absolutely awful, however new owners now and decided to try the food, the menu is small but enough choice. The food was well cooked and beautifully presented thank you very much we will eat again.

Staff unhelpful. Just stand around watching you wait for service. Won’t visit again

I almost had food poisoning from this place I won't go there again

Just visited you today with friends and we had the Carvery would like to say it was a beautiful meal and staff were lovely would recommend it to anyone who is looking to go out for a meal .Thank you all very much . Merry Christmas to you all x x

So me and my partner decided to visit the falls yesterday, when we thought we would stop here for for Sunday lunch. The surroundings were lovely, but unfortunately our food was cold, mash was lumpy and the beef was to tough to eat, gravy was water thin. Vegetables were ok. Staff very friendly. Just very disappointed with our meal.

Absolutely stunning service and food. Prices are fantastic. Will definitely be a regular.

Dropped into this pub as we knew it was dog friendly and we had our bischon dog with us, and fancied a drink. They had a lovely roaring fire, pub was lovely and warm. Decided to have something to eat. Great meals with lovely homemade chips. Staff were friendly and will definitely be returning. Great welcome. .

Good entertainment, food is reasonably priced drinks can be a bit expensive. But has a pleasant atmosphere

I have been here before, the food then was great. This was the worst Sunday Lunch I have ever had. We arrived at 2pm. So if the time was an issue, then they should stop serving before then. My beef was so thick I thought I was having a steak! It was cold. Mash was cold, peas were so overcooked they weren't green, Yorkshire were overcooked I couldn't cut it, gravy had a thick skin on it, plates weren't available either. Thank goodness for desert. My dogs benefitted from the meat we brought home. Never again.

Come here for Sunday roast with my partner We both went for the roasted Turkey. Was told there was no carrots peas & parsnips. All veg was freezing. Gravy was stone cold. A tea spoon of mash enough for one bite. Service was slow, not much alcohol on tap which was a shame. Worst dinner I’ve experienced in a long time. Will not be returning.

The worst plate of food I have ever been served in a venue by a country mile!! Absolutely disgusting. I cannot believe they had the audacity to serve it to unsuspecting customers and then charge for it!!! And to add insult to an already poor experience it was served but unprofessional staff who just shrugged their shoulders when I complained!! I

went there today and we booked for 2 never had our food till 3, it was not even edible, it was dried up microwave food and the kids r still waiting, it never came, never ever been somewhere so bad!!!

Went for Sunday lunch unbelievable 😳 food was a hour late coming to table no veg on a Sunday lunch 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ 1 boat of gravy between 3 adults stay well away

We stayed one night at the Lamb and Flag on our trip in South Wales. The rooms are spacious, clean, warm and have everything you need. We had a shower and a bath in our room. The pub had live entertainment on during the evening but don’t let this worry you as it does not run into the early hour, so you still get a quiet night sleep. The breakfast was DELICIOUS with your choice of eggs etc. The best part about our stay - the staff. The staff are welcoming, chatty and couldn’t do more for you. The sweetest staff for sure! *4.5* Only a couple of recommendations hence the *4.5* - a lot of food had run out on the evening unfortunately (there was a function on downstairs so it was entirely just bad timing for us), we only had one set of towels but it was too late to ask when we’d realised, thicker curtains and a bigger tele. Tiny little things though and didn’t change our positive opinions of the Lamb and Flag. All in all a lovely stay and a BARGAIN for £70 a night!! We’ll definitely be back again. Thank you for a great stay Lamb and Flag!

Stopped off at The Lamb & Flag for a late lunch. Staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food was excellent, probably the best pub lunch I've ever had. The mixed grill was cooked to perfection,, quality meat and plenty of it. The chips were hand cut, crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside, well seasoned and very tasty! Wish we lived closer to the lamb and flag, but to be honest its worth the drive for such a lovely meal and atmosphere.

Very nice pub/hotel. Really clean and excellent breakfast included in a very reasonable price. We also had an evening meal and the food was very nice also.

Not a great meal but OK seems to have a crowd of regulars who swear quite a bit

Cracking singer but everyone working behind the bar smokes and leave the door open pub filled with fag smoke 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Lovely little pub, the team go above and beyond to help, the room cleaned during the day which was a nice touch. We had dinner here twice and breakfast, both lovely! I'd definitely stay again!

This is a no frills hotel which offers excellent value for money and it's clearly the best the area has to offer. We stayed here for 2 nights; the room was large and clean, but basic. We were welcomed warmly and the staff were attentive (the little fluffy pub dog in particular is lovely). The breakfast was well cooked and generous. The food in the restaurant is good value, note though that they don't serve Sunday evenings. If in the area, we would stay again

Nicely located, good food, staff good too

It was OK. Food was fine, staff could do with some better training and service could be quicker. But they were pleasant enough. I will go back.

We stayed one night, and overall it was a good stay. The initial impression wasn’t great, as the stairs leading to our room were heavily stained. Our room was clean and the main bed was comfortable. We booked a room with one bed and a sofa bed. The sofa bed was not comfortable, so we paid extra for a bed that we didn’t use. The room was quiet. The breakfast was great and one breakfast easily fed two. Keep in mind that the earliest breakfast is served at 8:30, so don’t plan on breakfast if you have an early departure. We arrived after the kitchen closed so can’t speak to the dinners.

Meat to hard mash is smash and veg has funny taste.don’t follow allergy data which is law close it down before someone is hospitalised with a serious allergy reaction staff don’t care no apologies !! Eho need to do a visit as kids are running...

Fantastic food, friendly staff.

Can't say enough of this lovely pub. Fantastic good, wonderful, high quality food at a more than reasonable price. I had the standard carvery which left me stuffed! The staff were brilliant, friendly and efficient! To summarise, check out this traditionally English resteraunt for an amazing experience. I WILL be back!

Looking for a dog friendly pub while out for a drive today, came across The Lamb and Flag, absolutely fantastic, the staff were amazing very helpful extremely polite, food was beautiful, I had Scampi and chips , fantastic home cooked chips and plenty of them, my husband had steak and ale pie cooked to perfection, lovely big chunks of meat beautiful, we where even given bowl of water for our Bella, and she was allowed to sit between us, will definitely be returning

Probably the worse meal I have ever had. I had to pre order the meal when I booked the table which was two weeks before. They telephoned me the day of the meal and asked me what my order was. When the meal arrived it was obviously prepared ages before. The chilli was dry and rewarmed. The chips were cold and cooked a while before. There were six of us in the booking and all the meals were awful. Staff were lovely but the food was simply substandard. I’ll NOT go there again and definitely will not recommend.

Nice pub and hotel. Absolutely loved the breakfast. They went to all the trouble to give me vegetarian meal. Will visit again.

Ordered 16 Oz rump. 12oz sirloin turned up and they thought I wouldn't notice rather than ask me if I wanted it. Ordered Philly cheese chips which were cold. Would give 0 stars if possible. Last time I will go there. Never again.

Visited last night 10 adults and a child .food and service was amazing will definitely revisit again

Great Food, Lovely Staff, & had Glasto on the TV. what more could you want

Wonderfully friendly staff, lovely little place, and lovely food. Strongly recommend. Plus. They made my dogs day by bringing him turkey so everybody is a winner 😁😁

Great value for money! Lovely facilities and comfy beds. Great breakfast options - we were given the option of a hot breakfast but opted for cereal, and were given juice and other continental pieces as well. We also had dinner in the restaurant in the evening and the food was good. They do some very good value lunchtime deals from 12-5pm. The staff were all friendly and helpful as anything. The place is huge with a lovely big beer garden. Would absolutely come back and stay again!

Over a pub. Good size room, quiet, relatively clean although they should look under the bed once in a while. Good wifi, enough electrical outlets. Good lighting. Small tv, No safe. Food was decent.

Very friendly staff and locals had a mixed grill which was excellent

Lovely freshly cooked food, made exactly to order. Friendly staff and a good looking place :) We will definitely be returning!

I'm from Glynneath and live in Gloucestershire. We came down for the night and had a brilliant stay...great food...and the staff are friendly and funny..can't wait for the next time..

Went here from walking the Neath canal from Resolven to Glyn Neath. Really friendly staff wonderful Sunday lunch. Highly recommended.

Had the pleasure of staying at this accommodation last night with my husband and our son, the pub is very nice and clean, the staff are very friendly and accommodating, we had an evening meal here and the portion sizes were huge and very good value, had a lovely comfortable sleep and breakfast this morning was a delight, cereal, a round of toast and a HUGE full English all included in our price. Couldn't get the TV to run, did mention it to the staff around 9pm but they were really busy, nobody did attention but I didn't want to pressure them to call as they were run off their feet serving staff. Rooms were lovely and clean, comfortable beds, nice bathroom and great shower. Would definitely come again.

Thus place is so good, they are dog friendly 👍 the food was amazing! The proper home made chips took me back to my childhood and the chips mum used to make! My partner had a burger and said it was great, I had the beef and ale pie, it was soooo good. My little dog loved the big beer garden. We will definitely be going back.

Has to be one of the worst Sunday dinners we have ever had. Table booked for 3pm , arrived in plenty time, when we went to Carvery there was hardly any thing left. Lumpy gravy and the food was bland flavourless. We complained to the bar staff and were told “we can’t do anything about it as we are only bar maids” Definitely won’t be going back there .

Amazing Carvery on Sunday 1st May. 100% recommend

Fantastic place to stay with spacious rooms and fantastic clean bathroom. Dog friendly pub and stay with huge garden at the back. The landlady and stuff is so friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend!!! 💜💜

Friendly staff, good food, good value, would be 5 star but the Yorkshire puddings were stodgy ;) will definitely return.

Very nice place nice staff and the food was good. Would call again if in area

Absolutely disgusted with the staff! I came In Last night seen family and friends who bought me drinks and I sat down.. I had just a few sips of my drink and a member of your staff asked me to leave based on something that someone else had said. My character was judged and I was made to feel the most uncoftable I have felt in my entire life and I was accused of the worst thing I could ever imagine. But I left as I was asked and I broke into tears because of what I was accused of and I literally sobbed my eyes out.. I contacted friends and came back with them and this is when I found out it was just something somone else had said… so you completely ruined my night… I been struggling a lot with things in life and my home town is meant to be welcoming but your staff last night made me feel like I was a complete and utter freak.

After travelling from sunny Suffolk for our Zip Wire Experience, we as a family decided to call into this public house. The menu was plastic, full of fried foods asked for a veggie thai, but not on menu. Decided then to have a steak n surf. Asked for medium rare! Overcooked tough, fried greasy scampi huge fried onion rings, n massive of chips n salad filling up an overspilling plate! Delicate!!! Mmm definately not! Cuisine, definitely not! Chips warm n obviously been sitting around the kitchen. We asked for fresh chips, delivered without a smile, more of an inconveniece to her. Its a local pub, doing locals the best on offer, Large portions, chips galore, salads and food that is basic, without any flare for cuisine. So very disappointing, after a wonderful day in the skies. Too much variety on a plastic menue, means microwave, no flare for cuise, just large portions to fill yr belly!

The staff were really friendly stayed one night and arrived and shown to our room but loud music playing till nearly midnight meant we couldn’t sleep until it had finished. Room was clean but dated. Thin duvet and pillows but all clean. Nice to have...

I dubiously booked a weekend in the Lamb and Flag after reading some awful reviews. I honestly can not complain, all the staff were really pleasant, rooms were clean, tidy, spacious and the breakfast was delicious. I’d definitely book this place again. Thanks for a...

Lovely breakfast reasonable price nice friendly staff xx

Service was brilliant, the food was outstandingly brilliant

I don’t ever write reviews because the truth is, I just can’t be bothered. However, I felt compelled to describe my experience of this wonderful pub. The food here is pretty special. I had a steak and ale pie which is as good as any I’ve had in much trendier and more costly restaurants. And for what you pay, it’s remarkable. The ladies who served us were lovely and helpful. They didn’t worry about us ordering meals in the bar instead of the restaurant. They just made our quick stop here something to remember. Surely the locals are keeping this gem of a pub quiet. Sorry to let the cat out of the bag. We shall return!
