Popped in for a few pints, nice hot sunny day (remember them) beer garden empty so took my shirt off, soon to be shouted at by a staff member to put it back on! Garden was empty and we are both pensioners on walking sticks! We had planned for another group to join us but soon rearranged that idea. Would have filled the till up too. We didn't stay long.....

The staff may seem strict to most, but in my opinion this is needed to keep the pub tidy. There is a lot of people I know who are banned from here and the pub is a lot better off without them. They seem to have zero tolerance to anti social behaviour or drugs. Whilst it is one of the safest pubs in the Rhondda I know of it can be very clicky. Unless you've grown up in Porth since birth and was very popular good luck even striking up a conversation with someone in there. I can speak from experience as for my job I travel all over UK and visit different pubs. As a Welshman I'm more likely to get a warm welcome and make friends in an English pub or in Ponypridd/Cardiff.

Do nit go in this pub. Irs so clicky. I got told no dogs was allowed on bar do I sat in bear garden. The younge bar lady came out, asked for id although she had already served me alcohol. She came back out telling me my one teR old Freuchie had to be on a lead. I said no problem. 10mins later she came back telling me my puppy had to be tied up to bench. Myself and 19 year old daughter were only people out the garden. She then continued to spy on us and duck as we seen her. She was so weird. As I took our orange juice classes up to bar while leaving, I asked why there was a very old sheep fog kind of fog just walking around the bar if no dogs were allowed in. Even tho the dog was gorgeous 😍. She told me she wasn't going to be questioned and to contact Emma the manager for any queries. I was completely out of my comfort zone. Clicky pubs are not usually an issue as I'm only popping in for a juice. This pub was being nasty rude and very hostile due to use not being locals. It was so rude and uncalled for how this bar lady was towards me.... wow!!!!!

Called into the Rheola for a night out, I have always enjoyed this pub. It is set in a good location with it's own car park, also just a short walk away from Porth railway station. The staff are really friendly which is probably why people return. It caters for all age groups which is why it is so popular.

Having visited here after a meal with friends in the old post office i can honestly say what a waste of time on both counts.The customers were not welcoming the decor a typical old pub that needs dragging and screaming from the 1970s the beer was average and the group of foul mouthed youths that seemed to have carte blanche in the bar drove us out to the beer garden its only redeeming feature if you want to stink of cigarette smoke.

La Luna - what an experience! AN ABSOLUTE MUST VISIT!! Staff were so accommodating and considerate, genuinely amazing to see such lovely staff looked after so well, so happy which was a pleasure. Management went above and beyond to ensure we were looked after and accommodated our needs, giving advice and guidance since we had travelled to stay at a nearby spa. Food was incredible, served so quickly and such attention to detail - incredibly well priced for the quality. The fish cocktail did not disappoint, to be honest we expected a prawn cocktail and wow! Crab meat, salmon, prawns and fresh salad with amazing bread to accompany. The steak was so much bigger than expected, incredibly well cooked and the accompanying fried onions with tomato ragu was such a treat, completely unexpected for this to stand out so much. As for the desert, baileys tiramisu… need I say more, we needed to leave due to transport home and the staff were able to put this in takeaway boxes for us which was so incredibly kind. Outstanding! The passion fruit martinis were to die for, so tasty and the best quality I’ve ever had if I dare say, a stand out! 8 cocktails for £60 with the cocktail tree saved us a lot of money than buying them separately, we were so impressed considering the quality of them, definitely not a premix cocktail! Atmosphere was so lovely, a home away from home. Decorated immaculately, songs were lovely and soothing, gorgeous fish that were well taken care of. Overall, such a lovely experience - can’t wait to return and try their gorgeous day menu or tapas, everything looks incredible and it was such a special experience honestly definitely not a restaurant to miss, if you ever get the opportunity to stop by please ensure you do!
