Called here this morning for a quick coffee break whilst out walking (keeping our steps up) and just wanted to say we were served by the most lovely young man, I didn’t take his name but he was very tall with brown hair and a beard, he was really kind and so I wanted to leave a positive post for him, he deserves some recognition for being so helpful and pleasant.

Have been to the Longbow Beefeater many times before after staying at the Premier Inn next door and always found the Longbow Beefeater to be lovely. Even more so this time, we were served by a gorgeous lad called Jordan and he looked after us both the other evening when we arrived and had a mean and this morning for Breakfast. Friendly and helpful chap, Jordan is a credit to the Longbow Beefeater - nothing was too much trouble. Looking forward to coming back in December where we I hope to be served excellently by Jordan again.

Toaster was totally broken and staff didn’t seem to want to help at all. Forgot about the toast and went to get hot food to find out there were flies all over it. Told a member of staff and he simply tried to waft them away as if that was going to help. We all decided to leave which again, the staff didn’t seem to care about

Food Really disappointing, x 2 steaks very bland, dry and suspect they were microwaved. The steaks were done really quickly. Chicken wings no flavour. Kids meals equally as poor. Never been before, I can honestly say that for the price of the fillet steak (£22) it was the worst meal I've had. The tiniest pot of peppercorn sauce which didnt spread over my steak (and boy I really needed it to add flavour) They really have no excuse for food this bad as it was 21.30 and the restaurant was a quarter full on a Saturday evening so not really busy. Service was decent, a nice young polite waitress. Atmosphere is what you expect from a beefeater. I stayed in the Premier inn next door hence the visit. When I consider that I had an excellent steak from Miller and Carter for the same price I feel quite cheated lol. FYI, this is the first review I've ever posted, I don't consider myself fussy, this should give an idea of how disappointed I am. I noted that most of the diners returned to the Premier inn which is quite telling

Our server Jess was very attentive, with quick service and a smile. Our meals were hot and well presented. Ordered halloumi starters (hot and fresh) and a prawn cocktail plenty of prawns. 2 steak samplers and a chicken for mains. Again hot and fresh. All 6 steaks were cooked perfectly and full of flavour. 1st time in a long time to a beefeater but will be revisiting soon!

We were served by Russell tonight he was doing a few tables so we could see he was always busy but our drinks and water came a few minutes after we ordered them and he ask us a few times if we like any more drinks or water our meals came soon as he could and not a very long wait between each meal too . Russell was very polite and helpful

We popped in this evening, and clearly from the start you could see they are massively understaffed compared to outside school holidays. Only 1 bar man and the waiting staff frantically trying to take orders and clear tables. Although they were under so much pressure they were still very courteous, have to give Rhys a special shout out as he was so apologetic but also an amazing character to have working there Beefeater need to give this venue more staff as they are massively overstretched

It was lovely and clean, with quick service and a nice atmosphere. Our waitress was wonderful, a woman I believe was called Lara, though I may have the spelling wrong, was so attentive and helpful, we were grateful to have had her serving us. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food apart from a small complaint about the steaks quality, though it was nowhere near enough of a bother to actually complain about. I definitely recommend it to those looking for an evening out for food that won’t turn out expensive.

My sister and I stopped here for lunch after a shopping trip. Was served by the lovely Shaunagh who was attentive and cheerful without being too full on. We both had the haddock and chips with mushy peas which was delicious. The place was clean and atmosphere great. Only negative were the uncomfortable seats. Too deep to grasp to pull up to the table unless your arms are twice as long and the actual seat part only accommodates your bottom so you have the feeling of only perched instead of sat. Would still recommend as the food was excellent.

Whilst the food when it eventually arrived was lovely the wait was unreasonable. I had my 8 year old child with me who had ordered a starter as part of the kids meal deal. After a extensive wait and a child who was so hungry I went to find a waiter to ask about my child's starter (it was only nachos so no reason why such a simple dish should take so long) to be told that it had been on the hatch for wait staff to take to the table for some time and it had essentially been ignored The lady was apologetic and took it straight to the table but it shouldn't have took for me to prompt them to take food to the table.

Really good service, food was good and tasty though I'd say a bit overpriced but if you're at the premier inn next door you pay a bit extra for convenience. Cocktails were really tasty, 100% recommend the zombie and 2 for £10 is decent IMO. Breakfast buffet is good, the sort of spread you'd expect from a premier inn all you can eat. Wish the scrambled eggs were a bit better but you get what you pay for I guess. Everything else was good and the cranberry juice was proper tasty not the sharp stuff you can get sometimes.

We visited February 17th as a group of 12 for my mother’s 60th. There were 3 of us that arrived first, we waited about 25 minutes for our first round of drinks and long waits for other drinks that were ordered in between. The food was about a 50 minute wait also which we wasn’t told about. Food was ok but not all that. On the 19th February I received a phone call from someone at the longbow to advise that the last transaction hadn’t gone through, the bill was spilt in to 3 and the last payment being just under £200, the guy that called, not sure if he was the manage but he asked if I could drive there to pay it. My partner called back as the payment was still pending with his bank and also asked if there was a way of paying over the phone if the money had gone back into his bank. To be told that we can’t pay over the phone but he was happy for us to transfer the money to his bank and he could then pay to the pub. I’m not sure if this guy is aware but he should be being in the hospitality trade that that would be classed as money laundering! Anyway the payment went through after a few days but how many people have they tried doing this to and people ending up paying twice? I could have gone back down that day and paid the amount which would have been a total of just under £400.

The driest food I’ve tasted in all my life, may as well of the sand of the Sahara Desert over the mixed grill. Food must have been stood waiting to be served for ages to get to such a stale dry looking plate, drinks took ages to be served even though the restaurant wasn’t exactly busy. Our waitress was nice but the food was appalling. Thought I was going to break my jaw on how stale the churro was too.

We stayed in the premier inn and always book the breakfast. This pub was the attached restaurant, the greeting was nice and the two members of staff were attentive and nice. I ordered some vegetarian items they were really nice. Unfortunately the breakfast wasn’t up to premier inns usual standards, there was no cranberry juice, no alternate milk (we brought our own)no decaf coffee sachets no fresh whole fruit. The member of staff did apologise he said the delivery hadn’t arrived. Overall a decent breakfast that could be better.

Well over a 40 minute wait to be served. Main meals brought to the table before the starters. One of the Drinks order NEVER brought to the table. Spoke to the duty manager in a calm and polite manner, and was told to “chill” it’ll be sorted by him. Totally unacceptable attitude, spoke over me numerous times. Clearly didn’t want to hear anything I said. Found him very condescending. Did put a £30 voucher on the bill. But never going there again. Shoddy service Shoddy management

I used to love this restaurant years ago, so persuaded my husband whilst visiting Pontypridd after living away for many years to have lunch here. An absolute disaster!! The Manager looked stressed and didn’t know where to sit us (or the couple in front of us) and eventually we were shown to the area upstairs. A number of people arrived after us, we chose to sit at one of the tables laid with a nice white tablecloth. Eventually the waitress arrived -but moved us to a bare table explaining that the table we were at was for “afternoon tea” only! We were finally asked for our order after other people had given theirs. The couple in front of us having almost the same non-existent service-then walked out. We gave our order for our first and main course together with a request for wine to accompany it. After half an hour the waitress having served other tables then finally brought our two glasses of water …and gave them to the next table! We asked if we could at least have our previously ordered glasses of wine whilst waiting…. Still Nothing arrived! We then reluctantly decided to follow our fellow diners example and leave which is what we did. Such a disappointment! We will never go there again!
