The Rising Sun Inn in Pembrokeshire

Must be our 5/6 time eating out here. - never any complaints. By this time I’m usually bored of going to the same place. But the rising sun just keeps giving. The food is good 10/10 every single time. But if I have to recommend something, it would be the Sunday lunch!! The service is fantastic, today was incredibly busy with what looked like a party of 20+ upstairs, our table was not over looked at all. The ladies checked in a few times during our lunch to ask if everything was ok. Nothing is too much trouble. Portions are always on the bigger side. Child friendly - there’s always a board game or baby toys to keep the kids entertained in between courses. A really nice touch actually. THE best Sunday dinner I have ever had.

Good food which was spoiled by the very slow service Table booked for 7.30pm main course served 8.40 felt forgotten but they never forget the bill !!0

A really nice honest pub, friendly staff. Nice food too.

Took my wife and 3 teenage daughters for a well needed roast dinner and this place definitely did not disappoint. All very well fed and the young staff members did a very good job in serving us. The food was a very high standard and plenty of it. Well worth every penny Will definitely be returning.

Very disappointed with the Sunday lunch, starters were squid balls, however unable to pick up with a fork as they were to hard and had to use my hands but tasteless and really over cooked. The main meal was cold, beef ok but only one roast potato and the vegetables all over cooked.

We were staying in the area last week and how wonderful to have this amazing restaurant so near to us. It’s the second holiday we’ve ended up dining at, more than once. All very clean. Very pleasant helpful staff. Great to see a good choice of drinks on this trip. Felinfoel stout and beer. Thatchers cider. All on draft. The food as always was amazing. So tasty, homemade and generous. Plus they cater amazingly well for my daughter’s gluten intolerance. Lots of choice! She very rarely can have a lasagne out and every time we dine here, she opts for the gluten free homemade lasagne which is just gorgeous and every bit as good as the glutenous lasagne that my husband and I often have here. They do have a good choice of food on the menu and all looks amazing! My husband enjoyed his crispy batter cod and chips one evening. Their chips are also homemade and delicious. Can’t recommend here enough! Wish we lived nearer. Will definitely return next time we’re in the area.

Lovely Sunday lunch excellent service and dog friendly must call iff you are down that way

We recently experienced awful service here. We understand things can happen and time can be delayed. But when the staff don’t even apologise for the service being a 1 hour 30 minute wait before even bringing you your first meal out & dont even ask if we want any drink top ups was pretty poor (we only got asked if we wanted any drinks once in a 2 hour 30 minutes service time for a 2 course meal) . Especially when the restaurant only had 3 other small table in. Definitely left us all feeling very frustrated especially when we are local to the area.

Fantastic Sunday dinner and would highly recommend the local stout.

Visited the little Cake horsebox shop Cakes were delicious!

I had intended to eat here until I saw the massive amount of garbage piled up behind the building just at the entrance to the campsite. That's highly likely to attract rats as there's both water & fields nearby, so until they improve their refuse disposal I'm happy to give this one a miss. I should add that this refuse problem has only been an issue since the new owners took over.

We went for a family meal of 12 of us during our holiday. We pre-booked 3 weeks b4 and pre-ordered the day before, due to being a large booking. The staff, setting and establishment were wonderful. Staff attentive and friendly and were more than happy to accommodate. It was our waitresses 2nd shift and she excelled! There was a wait between the courses, but this not a complaint, just a warning and believe me, it was worth the wait! The food was incredible. All freshly cooked and prepared and was delicious 😋 a great varied menu too. I cannot recommend this place enough. If you are in the area, go there!

Had the shell-on prawns. There was way too much salad - really large fibrous leaves that were difficult to cut in a bowl - there was enough to feed 10 other people, ridiculous and not thought through. There was no finger bowl to clean fingers, despite having to decapitate and shell the prawns. Didn’t even provide a bowl to put the waste shells in. Prawns were over cooked. Focaccia bread was excellent though.

This gem of a resturant lies a couple of miles outside Haverfordwest. The staff were friendly and well done to the young lass whose only started the job that night. She kept the drinks flowing and brought all the magnificent food out in a timely fashion. The food was awesome and freshly cooked. Not one person complained or had anything bad to say. It worth the wait as each meal is prepped from scratch. Guarantee you'll roll out of there, toppers with food and needing to lie down in the recovery position for a couple of days, the food is seriously good!! If your in the area and are looking for a bite to eat, visit this place!! Quality food and service!

Was fabulous meal and service was great thank you Andrea and all your staff

Bel endroit où l'on mange très bien. Les plats sont copieux et sont fait de produits frais, ça se sent tout de suite. Nous recommandons vivement.

Got recommended this place and it didn’t disappoint. Fast service and a great variety of food and drink. Would recommend for family’s!

Fantastic food, good service. Was on holiday and popped in with the family for a meal. Don't pass by, it would be your loss.

The service from both waitresses was incredibly nice. They were very welcoming and checked multiple times during our meal if we required anything else. The food looked and tasted amazing. I had the lasagna and the salad that came with it was refreshing. The lamb burger was equally as tasty along with something that I can describe as home cooked potato wedges but we so light and crispy. If you're looking for excellent pub food then this is the place and definitely beats pub-chains by miles! Well done chef and the waitresses 🙂

Food was delicious and staff very friendly. All cooked from scratch. Reasonably priced too. Definitely recommend.

Lovely food and real ale. Easy to find plenty of parking. Friendly staff lovely atmosphere.

We had a buffet afternoon tea for 40 people and Andrea and Gethin couldn't have been more accommodating, we had alsorts of dietary requirements including vegan and gluten free. All were catered for and the food was delicious and lots of variety. I had lots of compliments for choosing a venue with such fabulous food 😋

Went for Sunday lunch, only had main course. Food very good and ample portions, only let down by an error by order taker missing off a main course so 1 of our party had to wait a little over 5 minutes for her main course to arrive after ours. Condiment portions were tiny only 2 little pots between 6 of us. Nobody asked if we wanted more drinks at that point, only after we'd finished. No offer of coffee only dessert, possible chance of upselling lost. Would return but would hope for better service.

A lovely evening with school raising funds. Lovely atmosphere lovely staff. Meal was delicious.

The Rising Sun 🌞 the takeaway Sunday dinners were absolutely delicious, oh wow! Cooked to perfection, so tasty - the flavours were just so good. The nut roast was stunning too...

Lovely Sunday Lunch. 3 of us and we each had something different, all were beautifully cooked.

Warm welcome & shown to our table. Lovely efficient waitress took our order for drinks,gave us menus with no hint of pushing us to order quickly even took time to listen to a dietary request. Food was delicious nut loaf & roast beef for the carnivores. More cauliflower cheese please. 👌Thank you team. Will definitely return.

Amazing food! Really tasty and good value. A nice little find

Not too busy on Saturday evening. Decent choice on the menu of pub grub and a bit. Plates were large and beautifully presented. Fantastic tasty chicken souvlaki. Sundaes were to die for.

Went for a meal after reading the reviews the meal was fantastic and plenty of it

My rating is divided! First the restaurant: Top! Incredibly delicious. The best meal of our trip so far. I had the grilled pork chop with salsa and chorizo ​​stew. Hats off to the chef! And a top-class burger. We would have liked to stay. We would have liked to have enjoyed this sensational cuisine for longer. Second, the Rising Sun campsite: We were here with our campervan. We need nothing, or little. No electricity. No shower. No toilet. One parking space is enough. We are inconspicuous, quiet campers. The place is in the renovation phase. Cozy? Quiet? Nice? Quiet? None of that. We would still have been happy if the space on a building site had cost £10. Or...stay, eat in the restaurant...this time it doesn't cost anything, but come back when our place is ready. But we had to pay £25 for this place. Photos to follow. No recommendation here! We stayed the following night at the Harp Inn in Letterston. Would cost £10 but didn't have to pay anything because we had dinner there.

Poor service .Had to ask for plates to be taken away ,ask for dessert menu, ask for coffee that was left at the bar and charged double for a bottle of wine. Really disappointed.

The campsite is being refurbished as we speak and will then be a very reasonable site which I will happily return to. The pub offers extremely good food. The site is l9cated pretty central in Pembrokeshire.

We had a family Sunday roast here. We were a large group and they housed us easily. The food was fantastic and really well presented. However the table we ate from felt like a canteen. Places weren't set, no table cloth or even a placemat. It didn't align with the presentation of the food.

We were staying nearby and went here twice for dinner. It's recently under new ownership and the menu is greatly improved from the standard pub fare shown on the menus people have previously shown in their reviews. They do four kinds of skewers - we had the chicken teriyaki and the chicken souvlaki and they were absolutely divine. The next night we took soup and duck bon-bons for starters and burgers for the mains and again they were very high quality indeed. The staff in this place are particularly worth singling out for being friendly, chatty, helpful and generally a pleasure to be around. Whoever has taken over this place (and particularly whoever has overhauled the menu) knows *exactly* what they are doing!

Can't praise the rising sun enough. The food was incredible, the quality was way above the very reasonable pricing. The staff were very welcoming and funny which created an amazing atmosphere. Will definitely be back and have recommended this place to friends and family already.

Fab food for a party of 8 accomodated at quite short notice. Great staff and service and every meal was delicious and even the dog was made to feel welcome and enjoyed all the fuss from everyone. Thank you - see you soon x

We booked the Rising Sun for my dad’s birthday, the buffet hot and cold food was outstanding. Over 60 guests invited and everyone enjoyed the food and the lovely atmosphere. The staff were beyond helpful and always with a smile. The chef’s are a credit to you as are all the staff. Thank you so much! We would highly recommend you.

Staff are so friendly and helpful. Food in the pub is Amazing! 🤩

SUNDAY Easter lunch - booked for 2.45. We had booked well in advance. Portions plentiful, we decided to go for turkey, 3 good slices of turkey, absolutely loved the tasty whole carrot and parsnip - soft and delicious, loved the wedge of stuffing (like mine normally soft - but was surprised how delicious this was) good roast potatoes and a pig in blanket. Vegetables came separately- cauliflower cheese (lovely accomplishement) and good size pot full of carrots, cabbage and a swede mash (all amazing). We couldn't eat dessert, we were that full!! We were on holiday, so a snooze once we got back was deserved. Staff friendly and efficient - didn't rush us, we arrived early, was prepared to have a drink before lunch, but we were told table ready. Drinks order taken and delivered quickly - food order not taken for a while, which was not a problem, as we could see they were busy and we weren't in a rush as discussing plans. Thank you for such a lovely meal. See you again soon.

Staying in this area with our touring caravan and phoned a few days ago to book this pub for Easter Monday dinner. The landlord was very friendly on the phone and booked us a table for two, in their dog friendly part of the restaurant as we mentioned we would be bringing our dog. We’ve just left the pub after a very enjoyable evening and a delicious meal. The landlord and his adult daughter, who also works at the pub, were friendly and welcoming. The service we received was attentive and excellent. The food was freshly cooked, so did take a little while to arrive, but we prefer not to have a rushed service. My husband had the chilli plus a portion of chips to share and I had the souvlaki, both meals were very well presented and tasted great and the chips were perfectly cooked too. The souvlaki tasted as good as I’ve eaten in Athens. The portions were very generous sizes. We’ll definitely return when in the area again soon

Fab food had beef which was delicious ,excellent service and very welcoming hosts If you haven't been best ssunday lunch around

This is an amazing little gem of a place! Fantastic food! Welsh lamb rump was perfectly pink and melt in the mouth and the Baked Alaska held a little surprise. Friendly staff and cant fault the service! I will definately come back if I’m this way on again!

Fantastic meal at a reasonable price.

Had a lovely meal last night, the highlight being the Asian slaw! Will be back. Cheers.

Absolutely gorgeous, gourmet meals. I was apprehensive ordering a steak at a pub as I feel they aren’t cooked to my liking. However, this pub served me the most gorgeous steak ever! Service was great and it’s a lovely, quaint pub. Definitely will be returning on our next trip to Pembrokeshire!

Went to the Rising Sun for a works buffet. Absolutely superb, lovely high quality food, well presented and loads of it. Most of us took some home as well. If you are looking for a buffet venue for business or social cannot recommend highly enough.

Gorgeous Sunday lunch, helpful and friendly staff. Better ambience downstairs than upstairs. Quality food, nicely presented, delicious Cauliflower cheese, pork crackling and yorkies and overall very good sized portions. Thanks so much!

Another fabulous Sunday lunch at the Rising Sun , delicious food and friendly staff, food freshly cooked, good service and good value for money,

A very pleasant meal out with my wife. A good range of starters and mains including burgers, pudding favourites and steaks. Nothing too fancy but well cooked. Friendly staff and quick service. Good beer! £55 for two starters, two mains. 2 pints for me and a soft drink for my wife as it was her turn to drive. Thoroughly recommend and we will be back soon.

Great food, good beer and excellent value.

Great sunday lunch. Good food and friendly staff, answered all of our questions with a smile.

We had a Sunday roast a few weeks ago here and I have to say the food was amazing. Everything cooked to perfection. I found the portion sizes were plenty for me and my partner and everything tasted so lovely. Would definitely go again. Just goes to show how nice it was as it was jam packed. Lots of people enjoying themselves. The service was great. Didn't feel rushed at all. Very friendly here.

Recommended to go here for Sunday lunch by a friend who lives locally. Please note that booking is a must!!! The Sunday lunch was excellent, very generous and very tasty. Lovely selection of fresh veg, fab cauliflower cheese 😋 , trimmings and plenty of meat and roasties and proper gravy. The puddings were also very large and yummy! The staff were great, helpful, polite and friendly. Absolutely great experience all round and if we are back down here will definately come back.

Absolutely beautiful Sunday lunch. Friendly staff, warm and cosy atmosphere. Much much nicer and tastier than the meal we had on Christmas Day in a nearby hotel! They could learn a lot from the Rising Sun. Took one takeaway meal home as 1 member of our party was poorly… she loved it too x

Went for staff Christmas meal food is fantastic 👏 👌 😋

Amazing place to visit, food is very tasty , deserts are delicious. Huge area for a large families or just large groups, dog friendly place. Open fire-really warm and cozy Child playing area , friendly staff. Area outside for the summer to enjoy your drink, absolutely all you want in one place.

Cosy. Well priced and great food and lovely staff. Highly recommend.

The Rising Sun 🌞 the takeaway Sunday dinners were absolutely delicious, oh wow! Cooked to perfection, so tasty - the flavours were just so good. The nut roast was stunning too - thanks so much! 🍽️ will definitely be back to do that again!

Had a fantastic meal from here a couple night ago. Excellent service, fair price, big portions and all round nice night. The staff were friendly and professional, but not so uptight that you couldn't have a laugh with them. I recommend the buffalo wings as they were amazing. Don't listen to the guy who commented about their guiness. It was perfect. More head on a guiness, the better. The whole meal was on point, and we will be coming again soon.

We called here one evening on the off-chance for a meal. A lovely welcome and shown to a table immediately. They even took our drinks order from the table. Our meals were delicious. Lovely polite young man looked after us. We even had a chat to the owner who told us of his long-term plans. I'm looking forward to revisiting for the Sunday lunch soon.

A great choice of food. We could see dishes being brought out to other tables. It was a hard decision what to order. In the end we opted for the steak and Stilton pie. It was lovely.

Went for food and a pint. The Guinness was not good - lots of bubbles which is never a good sign and the taste was as I expected poor. Would give that 4/10. Had the beef burger which was ok. A long wait of 50 mins from when I got in to actually having the food. The place was clean inside but staff could be more professional - the owner in shorts and a t-shirt. Friendly enough but I will try elsewhere next time.
