The Smiths Arms in Neath Port Talbot

Under new ownership. They are doing really well - Sky sports, open fire in the lounge, delicious Sunday lunches and live band nights in the lounge and function suite. Drinks prices are very good and they have friendly staff. Nice to see the place getting back on its feet again.

Tasty Sunday lunch today on their opening Sunday. So pleased to see this great pub open again and serving a Sunday roast. Choice of three meats beef, turkey or pork. We ordered one pork and one beef. It was served hot to the table with all the trimmings and a large portion of veg. The gravy was delicious, and I especially enjoyed the roast parsnip. Service was friendly and prompt despite this being their opening Sunday and it being busy. We didn't eat all of the veg we were given but did manage to find room to squeeze in a naughty pudding each. Looking forward to going again. Recommend this place for food and drinks.

We ordered and paid for an indian takeaway via Just Eat from here on january 13th. They took £20 out of our account but cancelled the ordet 2 hours later saying they were too busy and had no drivers. We still havent received our refund 😡😡 3 weeks later. So please dont bother ordering from here - there are nicer proper Indian takeaways that do deliver and dont rip people off!

As well as serving Sunday roasts, this place is now a curry house. We enjoyed onion bhaji and chicken tikka starters followed by chicken jalfrezi and a garlic chicken with nan. Ample portions and we had to take some away in a doggy bag.

I normally go to the Castle for Sunday lunch but had heard so much about the Smiths I thought it was worth a try. I was so disappointed, the Yorkshire pud was ready made and the roast potatoes were the frozen ones which taste like plastic. The veg was mushy and tasteless and the gravy was too salty for my taste. In it's favour there was a large selection of veg and the meat was lovely. Given that the price for two courses is £11 compared to £9.50 at the Castle I know where I'll be going in future.

14 of us booked Sunday lunch at the Smiths. They have a lovely banqueting room, also suitable for weddings. Carvery was great, as was the nut roast for our vegetarians. Great value, excellent service. There was no sense of urgency for us to leave.

Would recommend this for a gorgeous Sunday lunch. Staff are wonderful and food delicious-just like your own cooking. Excellent value at £11. For rwo course you can’t beat it.

A fabulous sunday carvery, succulent roasts, fresh home cooked veg all very tasty with the best gravy i've tasted.

Visited last Sunday and lucky to get in being Fathers Day. Even though full they were so organised and everyone there appeared to be happy with the delicious food. We are quite fussy about our Sunday Lunch ,especially the gravy, but honestly could not fault it . You can help yourself to veg which is nice and the meat was very tasty and cooked perfectly . Also the staff very friendly and helpful. Thank you, we look forward to our next visit.

Excellent pub and fantastic Sunday lunch, Christine and Mark always welcome you with a smile ,nothing to much trouble for them

I cannot rate the Smiths Arms Sunday carvery highly enough. The food was superb, fresh vegetables, meat that fell apart and piping hot. The waiting staff were exemplary, friendly, welcoming and extremely attentive. The dining room was tastefully decorated and very clean, as were the toilets. A faultless dining experience that I will definitely be experiencing again - very soon. Well done all at The Smiths Arms.

Visited today(17th) for Sunday lunch with my grandson, the service was brilliant and the quality of food was perfect! Had 2 very thick slices of turkey and 2 slices of beef...plenty of lovely veg to chose from .my grandson cleared his plate! Would definately return and bring my family with me! Very, very clean place and lovely, polite staff. Would highly recommend The Smiths to all my family and friends. A big thank you to all especially the lovely landlady that does all the wonderful cooking. See you after my hols...Wendy.x

Eight of us went for Sunday Lunch here a couple of weeks ago and we were really impressed with what we got. We have been looking for a decent carvery for ages and this place fits the bill. The service was excellent and the staff went out of their way to help my disabled mother and gran, carrying plates for them and making sure they were okay which was lovely. The carvery itself was beautiful and portion wise excellent value for money as you can get as much veg as you want but you also get a decent serving of meat, which you don't always get at a carvery. It's also nice to go to a place where you don't feel as if you are sat on top of each other. There's plenty of space and you don't get ushered out of the door quickly so if you prefer a more leisurely lunch then it is great BUT if you just want to go somewhere where you can be in and out within an hour or less then this is a good place to go too. Really enjoyed and can't wait to go back again!

Excellent Carvery Sunday lunch. Very good service and good value. Well worth a visit.the staff were excellent and assisted us throughout our visit, especially as one of our family uses a wheelchair. Thank you everyone.

Out for a Sunday stroll with the doggies on a drizzly Sunday afternoon. Dogs are allowed in the bar here. We had a warm welcome. The pub is spotlessly clean and the locals friendly. Hope to try the Sunday lunch another time.

The carvery was fab for Christmas party, good atmosphere and close position away from town trouble at this festive season. Friendly staff nothing was too much to ask for.

Very nice staff.The roast meat ( i had beef and pork) was very nice but the frozen green beans and peas were very overcooked and were . quite honestly tasteless.My family and i were disappointed as the reviews were good .won't be returning any time soon.

Just wanted to thank Mark and Chris for a very enjoyable evening for new years eve, it was excellent

By far it has to be the best Sunday lunch I've had! Always a friendly welcome, excellent customer service. Highly recommend a visit. Plenty of choice to chose from.

Esta fue nuestra primera visita a los 'Smiths" pero no será la última. Nos metimos en el autobús, para comer el domingo no haber reservado una mesa, pero eso no fase el propietario y era nada pero acogedor desde el principio hasta el final. Hay una buena selección de carnes y verduras a la brasa servidos en platos calientes - uno de mi mascota odia es comida caliente se sirve en platos fríos. La comida era acogedor y sabrosa - y un montón de, ya que era un asador. El personal era muy atento sin ser intrusivo y es obviamente importante para ellos que sus clientes disfrutar de la experiencia. No podía soportar un postre pero un miembro de la familia ordenados uno y dijo que estaba delicioso. En resumen, recomiendo una comida de domingo aquí, como la comida y el servicio lo hacen una combinación ganadora!

Este tiene que ser el mejor almuerzo de los domingos que he probado en mi vida. hay tanta variedad de verduras. Y un montón de carne de lleno el plato. En cuanto al servicio excelente, excelente, excelente. No puedo esperar para volver de hecho por qué cocinar cuando llegamos. El queso es para morirse. Gracias, Mark y Chris por una experiencia agradable.

This pub offers everthing you'ed expect in a village pub great food great beer and a great landlord and lady Mark and Chris,they cater for weddings and partys in the back function room which my family have used on a regular basis plus the sunday cavery is somthing else Chris cook's everything fresh and her cheescake is to die for ,as for the bar this time of year there is a lovely wood fire and Mark will always give you a great welcome he likes to talk sport
