The Nags Head in Pembrokeshire

Absolutely fantastic traditional pub and restaurant, a rare jewel! There aren't many of these special places left about. Incredibly welcoming owners and staff. Fantastic food and lovely ales. Great service. There is also a nice walk up to a tranquil woodland roundhouse, squirrels jumping about and owls calling at night, bliss. We have a little campervan and we're allowed to stay in the carpark. Please Avoid at all costs so it doesn't get to busy..

Top quality food in a wonderful traditional pub environment. Full of atmosphere and wonderful local flavours. Highly recommended.

Real pub. Real ale. Sunday roasts are excellent. Theme nights on some Thursdays are excellent, Thai, Mexican and more, do check in advance and it's worth booking as it can get very busy, fantastic garden next to the river cych, dogs allowed in the grass garden areas but not inside the pub.

We visited as a family for Sunday lunch. It was fantastic. Cooked to perfection, generous portions and no wait. Lovely location and would highly recommend.

VISIT THIS PLACE!!!!! As a reviewer I tend to avoid hyperbole but this is one pub I will have to put that aside for. First as a pub it is a beautiful building that has been carefully kept in keeping with its history. Inside, most room is given over to restaurant space, but there is still a little snug with a fire out the back. The food is exceptionally good by any standard but I think the use of local ingredients and a deft imagination in recipes raises it to more of a Michelin standard. So happy were we, that we decided to stay the night in one of their charming rooms and indulge in an excellent breakfast. Just to add to the general air of joy the cost of the room was very good value. What more can I say. Oh the beer is great and the stuffed giant rat in the snug clearly thought it worth travelling from South America to sample this best of Welsh hospitality. If ever in the area go eat and stay here!

Visited for Mother's Day - party of 7. Lovely building . The service was great. Sunday roast was lovely. Would visit again. Many thanks.

Great food and lovely staff. I would highly recommend the olives and bread starter as the olive oil and balsamic glaze dip tastes amazing. My steak was cooked perfectly and tasted great.

Beautiful pub with warm, welcoming atmosphere. Excellent menu including tasty vegan options. Food was excellent, as was the service. We look forward to returning soon.

Didn't stay just popped in for an evening lunch. Absolute amazing food! Everything was incredible. Service was immaculate. Would highly recommend. 10/10 for me!

My husband and I stayed here as we were guests at a wedding locally. Well what can I say. Not only is the place stunning, its spotless. Zoe and the team are very welcoming attentive and friendly. The rooms are lovely with ensuite TV an array of teas, coffee even Welsh cakes. A nice touch. Beautiful view from the room of the river. We had arrived early Saturday to experience the food menu. Red Thai curry was stunning. The breakfast was superb. Plenty of options, the traditional Welsh breakfast was our favoured choice. I must say that the team here really know how to provide excellent service and food. I'm actually reluctant to eat elsewhere now. Definitely going back. Excellent time and relaxed! Thank you to everyone.

Gorgeous looking pub with outside seating on banks of river. Unfortunately not dog friendly so only stayed for a quick drink (storm conditions meant no desire to sit outside)

Fantastic Sunday lunch. Super friendly staff and accommodated at short notice. We'll recommended

Really great characterful pub, often stop by in the summer for a beer by the river, Pubs like this are really lacking in this part of wales but there are a few little gems like this dotted around.

We called in for lunch. my partner had the lamb, i had the steak, both cooked perfectly I would definitely recommend ordering either dishes couldnt ask for better food. We will be back

Our third and final visit to this nice pub ended on a sour note. Having enjoyed a good meal and spent over £200, we were rudely asked to leave at 10.20pm as there was nobody else in the pub. The hospitality sector in rural Wales complains that it is not viable. Learn some basic rules of hospitality and you may survive. Behave like the landlady of the Nag's Head and your business doesn't deserve to survive.

I am so impressed by my ‘Nag’s Head’ experience that I have eaten Sunday Lunch and mid week dinners, including pie and pint night three times this week. The food, service and ambience are outstanding; a first class dining experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend the Nag’s Head Restaurant as a ‘must visit’ country pub restaurant.

A family lunch made super special with amazing service, delicious food and a wonderful cosey atmosphere! Just perfect. Thank you.

Stayed the night and had diner and breakfast. Room spotless beautifully presented and comfortable. Diner was exceptional. The host and staff were friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend and will return.

We are on holiday and have an accredited assistance dog that wears his jacket. We have been to all manner of pubs and restaurants on our travels in wales and have always been met with support and enthusiasm for our dog who is well behaved and small as he is a dachshund. Until this pub. We came here due to its reviews on trip adviser. Because we hadn’t booked I popped in to ask if they had a table and they confirmed they had, at this point I mentioned we had an assistance dog (at this point neither my wife nor the dog was with me). The waitresses looked horrified and due to not knowing what the response was referred me to a gentleman behind the bar. To say he begrudgingly acceded is an understatement, his tone and response was ‘yes that’s fine’ whilst clearly wanting to say no. I went and fetched my wife and our dog as they had waited in the car, to say I almost just got into my car and left is again an understatement however we were hungry and the place has good reviews. When we went in we were seated in an alcove reserved for stacking high chairs and clearly out of the way. Only upon paying was a positive vibe given towards our assistance dog who was being super cute and rolling on his back. The food was excellent, speed of service excellent and the location itself lovely. All of which for us was spoiled by a lack of enthusiasm to accept willingly assistance dogs. I can only imagine their dismay had he been a large Labrador. 5 stars for food and location, 2 stars for tolerance towards the equality act. Hence 3 stars overall

FRIDAY 27TH OCTOBER,MY HUSBAND GLEN AND I DROVE TO CENARTH FALLS TO CARRY OUT THE WINTER LAYUP AT OUR HOLIDAY CARAVAN,THE WEATHER WAS HORRENDOUS WITH THUNDER STORMS SO HEAVY THAT IT WAS DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD.AFTER A SAFE ARRIVAL AND DOING WHAT WAS NECESSARY AT THE CARAVAN WE CALLED FOR LUNCH AT THE NAGS HEAD IN ABERCYCH .THIS IS A LOVELY PUB THAT WE OFTEN VISIT FOR A MEAL OUT.DUE TO THE AWFUL WEATHER THE PUB WAS RELATIVELY QUIET,BUT WE WERE WELCOMED BY THE OWNER DEWI AND HAD A REALLY NICE MEAL OF FISH CHIPS MUSHY PEAS AND HOME MADE TARTAR SAUCE AND A GLASS OF ROSE WINE.WE WERE SEATED BY A LOVELY OPEN FIRE AND EVEN HAD CUSHIONS PROVIDED FOR OUR DELICATE BOTTOMS.THOROUGHLY ENJOYED OUR MEAL AND CHAT WITH MINE HOST. SO LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR NEXT VISIT.THANK YOU SO MUCH DEWI AND ZOE,VISIT WAS LIKE A RAY OF SUNSHINE ON A VERY RAINY DAY.HAPPY

My wife and dined her on Saturday night and it was utterly delightful: welcoming and attentive staff, warm and lively atmosphere and the food across the two courses we had was superb. Well seasoned, delicious and very more-ish. Also loved a couple pints of the local beer. I’d definitely recommend and will rtn. Thank you.

I had the pleasure of staying at The Nags Head a few days ago. My first impression was what a beautiful pub in a lovely location. The inside more than matched the exterior. A beautiful layout with rustic furnishings. The staff were attentive and the service was super fast. I ordered a small coffee and it came out what practically felt like seconds later. A bug bear is having to wait ages for table water. Again, literally seconds after we asked for water iy was on the table. Sounds minor but it's this level of detail that sets apart good from great places. Very impressive to say the least. Having read other reviews I admittedly had high expectations on the food. I was not disappointed. My wife and I both ordered the lamb and it was delicious, as were the starters. This was tasty good food that felt reasonably priced too given the quality. In summary I loved this place and hope to visit again should we ever return to the area some day. Thank you for helping to make our anniversary weekend as special as it was.

Lovely friendly pub with great rooms. Food was excellent and all the staff and locals friendly. Room was great, modern and very clean with a view of the river. Comfortable bed and good shower. Everything you need for a comfortable stay

Our last visit here was just after covid so sat outside then. This time we visited at lunchtime and so glad we did as what a gorgeous pub/restaurant serving locally sourced food and beers. Lovely selection of starters , mains and puddings well presented and all at reasonable prices. Well worth a visit and we'll done to the owners for using locally sourced ingredients to help the local economy

Stayed here 2 nights ago . Beautiful country pub with ample parking in a picturesque spot . The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was spotless and beautifully decorated, all brand new . Bed was very comfortable. Evening meal was absolutely delicious as was the breakfast . Highly recommend and would go again for a weekend treat x

Really great experience here twice now, and definitely planning to return. Even a bit of celeb spotting in the garden area.

Good value, well cooked, interesting wine list offering good quality wines, very efficient and friendly service, overall perfect.

We loved this friendly pub whilst on our holiday, with our 3 dogs, all the food was fantastic and service was excellent and friendly. The only down side was that we could only eat outside with our dogs, but we were lucky the weather was...

What a lovely pleasure to have great service and great food after the disasters we’ve had recently. It was a refreshing change and just like things use to be. Something different from the normal Sunday lunch and presented well with happy friendly staff. Would recommend...

It's got to be said that this gem of a place is probably the best we have eaten in with a relaxing atmosphere. Called in by chance after doing a little tour of South Wales over the Bank Holiday weekend. We have a vw campervan...

Overall we had a nice evening here, though I feel its good to point out a few things that could be improved upon. Starters were OK.. A little smaller portions that when we've previously visited and far from cheap. My husband had the chicken wings...

My wife and I stayed for two nights whilst visiting my daughter. The location is spectacular, in a wooded valley right alongside a lovely stream. The welcome from Zoe and the service we experienced from the whole team was exceptional. We had dinner one night...

Sunday lunch was perfect. Lamb was cooked beautifully, we could not fault it. Location is perfect too.

We stayed at The Nags Head for two nights so as to visit the Museum of Internal Fire at Tanygroes. Our room was clean, comfortable with a modern bathroom and good breakfasts which were individually cooked (not a buffet) and cheerfully served. We ate dinner...

Sunday lunch service extremely slow- our order overlooked then staff continuously asking if all ok, whilst trying to eat ,long awaited meal. Very annoying.

The food was absolutely incredible and the staff were second to none. Well worth the price, we will definitely be coming back. Thank you.

We are lucky to have this on our doorstep. The food is always spot on with a good selection on the menu.

We had a fabulous meal in a great environment with excellent staff. We have eaten here a few times and, every time we bring visitors, they rave about it! We will be back, of course.

Came for an evening meal with my 2 children while on a small break in the area. Glad I googled it and booked a table (was very busy)….was a lovely evening. Staff were very good. Food was amazing especially the Tuna Steak. Highly recommend

We went for Sunday Lunch, 3 of us with 2 dogs and we sat outside . Could not fault anything about the food, drinks or service, everything was absolutely amazing, best Sunday lunch out we have ever had.

Excellent experience early on a Friday evening in summer holidays. We were 4 adults and 2 children and all of the staff were friendly and prompt with service. The food was great and really good value. Garlic bread made with wild garlic, home made onion...

Without doubt, the best Sunday lunch we have had in any pub/restaurant. The place itself is lovely that's before even mentioning the youngsters who make up the serving staff. What a great bunch. Then there's the food. Oh lord. Roast turkey with all the trimmings....

Excellent old pub with character. Comfortable restaurant area. We had fish and chips for dinner, which was not the best. Minted mushy peas and home-made style tartar sauce a nice touch but the fish did not appear to be as fresh as it could be....

Wonderfully located pub in a quiet corner, right next to the river, where you can take the kids to look at the water's edge. Food was very tasty and staff knowledgeable on allergens.

Excellent . Just lucky to get a table but glad we did. Lamb excellent, chicken great. Pudding, wine , and beer all good. Lovely welcome and staff do an amazing job. Thank you.

Beautiful setting both inside and out in the beer garden. The stream running past is bubbling and has a huge canopy to seat in if its raining . The food was delightful, very tasty and very well presented. Toilets were immaculate and the staff were...

A real gem of a pub, we holidayed nearby and had the Sunday roast which was perfection plus a meal on our last night which equally as good, we did also end up popping in most nights for a couple of pints, this is in...

We went on a busy Saturday night however when we got there we were welcomed by the lovely Hannah who very quickly showed us to our table and took our drinks order! Fab choices of beers, I had the quest ale which was very nice!...

Went here for Sunday lunch today with family. Delicious food in a lovely covered seating area, next to very pretty river. I only live 30 minutes away and didn't know this place existed. We will definitely be back!

Brilliant experience, food was exceptional and the service was outstanding. Will be coming back soon and will definitely recommend!

We went for a meal last night with a group of friends and couldn’t fault it!! The food was cooked perfectly and all the staff were very attentive. Will definitely be visiting again!

Went for a friend’s birthday meal last night, and was a lovely experience, the service was quick and very helpful and they gave clear guidance for food allergies or dietary requirements. The food itself was very high quality and full of flavour. Would definitely recommend!

We visited this restaurant on the recommendation of others. What an absolute mistake this proved to be. The coke we were served was completely flat. The food was possibly the worst steak I have ever eaten, including the chips being very overcooked. At several points...

Loverly food and it tasted great I had a burger and it was one of the best I’ve ever had . My wife had a steak and she said it was amazing . And the deserts well they were heaven . Great place great food...

The food was fantastic. The management and staff were outstanding especially Morgan. And the setting couldn't be any prettier.

My wife and I had an amazing Sunday Lunch in the sun by the river. My wife loved the beef while I enjoyed the tastiest nut roast I ever had (parsnip nut roast is genius). Staff happy, helpful and attentive. Will defo be going back...

A lovely little country pub/hotel that serves the most amazing Sunday lunches.Booking is advised…it gets busy. There is a decent sized car park adjacent to the pub. We arrived by motorcycle and were made to feel welcome which isn’t always the case.No designated motorcycle parking...

Lunch today at The Nags Head was absolutely fantastic. Thai green curry was delicious, piping hot quite spicy with chips and rice . Staff efficient and attentive especially Morgan and Hannah. The bar steward Dewi always ready with a cheeky quip and is very entertaining....

We're regular visitors to family in the Boncath area and we've eaten at the Nags Head a few times over the last couple of years. Our last visit was last Friday evening - and didn't disappoint. I'd recommend this place to anyone. Key points to...

Lovely location and great service. Lovely staff, really attentive. Fabulously cooked and tasty sirloins. Delicious fries and great value. Shame there was no cheese board!!

Amazing food, had beef roast and so much of everything and extra gravy which is super important!!! Lovely pub with log burners and lovely friendly and attentive staff.. will definitely visit again!

Stunning food with varied menu & excellent service in lovely surroundings. Would advise to book on weekends.

We stopped off with our young and dog to sit down in the outdoor seating area. Service was brilliant and the food even better. A must stop off location.

Have driven past so many times and took the plunge to book. Best decision ever, wonderful food and excellent service. The atmosphere was great also I would highly recommend it. We will go again.

We’ve eaten here twice in the last week. First up was an amazing Sunday lunch followed by fantastic midweek burgers and chilli. Great food, nice selection of ale and wine, always a warm welcome and lovely service. Highly recommended!

Absolutely amazing food, atmosphere and staff! Highly recommend! Amazing countryside location…perfect for families

Excellent Food, Wonderful Service, Great Ale and a Friendly Atmosphere. The only downside to the evening is that the waitress didnt wait until I had a mouthful of food to ask how the meal was as is so common in pubs/restaurants in the area. Will...

Simply the best Sunday roast I’ve ever had. Every member of staff were delightful and attentive and clearly happy to serve and be part of such a welcoming and beautiful place. We walked here from our holiday lodge and popped in unannounced and were treated...

Had a beautiful meal last night. Couldn’t fault the food or the service and will definitely be going again soon but just a pity we were really cold. Noticed that others (including us) were eating wearing our coats. Appreciate that heating this large restaurant must...

Nice restaurant food was average. I was a little disappointed as we saw it had great reviews. We ate on New years eve and we thought the menu was very limited, when actually they had a new year's menu. Staff had not told us and...

Having visited many time during the summer, we were excited to get back to Pembrokeshire and visit the Nags Head over the Christmas period. The menu is great and extensive, catering great for our family of 4. The drinks menu is brilliant, offering a large...

We had a family gathering at the Nags head. We selected the Xmas menu as some family members couldn’t be with us Xmas day. The food was excellent, far better than we could ever have expected a Xmas meal to be. There was plenty of...

A wonderful roast dinner at a cracking pub. Would revisit any time we are in the area, you must visit!
