We booked here for a family meal for a 18th birthday party. We were greeted with a pub full of drunken people stumbling about at 5.30 pm. The language was disgusting! Outside the front door you had a couple grouping each other! A member of our group walked into the toilets with her granddaughter and a woman was sat on the toilet with door wide open. The waitress that served us was rude and bad tempered. We won’t be going to this venue again. It’s described as family friendly but I can assure you this wasn’t the case.

Christmas lunch was amazing… food was delicious and plentiful and staff were friendly and attentive. We were able to enjoy drinks by the cosy fire too which was a lovely bonus and added to the Christmassy atmosphere. Well worth every penny .. £78 for 3 courses on Christmas Day at this standard is fantastic. The service here always gets us returning so thanks to you all!

Surprised to find two lovely vegan options here: Cauliflower curry rice and hand cut chips or nut roast, hand cut chips, peas and gravy. Unfortunately, not dog friendly though.

I visited this restaurant on 15th April with friends, and have often visited there on previous occasions. My wife asked for the fillet of sea bass which was served on a portion of mashed potato. As she does not like mash, she asked for a portion of chips instead. To our surprise, the waiter informed her that he was not allowed to swap! How ridiculous is that? I had the battered cod and chips which was tasty. However, the size of the fish portion covered by a thick batter was very small. To be fair, this is a ploy used by several eateries of late. It makes the meal appear large. After all, the cost is in the fish and not the batter. The other noticeable difference compared with previous visits was the number of chips they served with the meal. The portion was noticeably small so I counted them. Fourteen in total! Although my meal was tasty, I did not leave the restaurant fully satisfied as on previouse ocasions.

The entire family had a very enjoyable Sunday roast today. The meats were all melt in the mouth delicious, and plenty of it. A lovely mixture of well-cooked vegetables complemented the meal. Between us, we enjoyed chocolate gateau, Lemon merengue, jaffa cake, and cream, for dessert. The staff was helpful, pleasant, and efficient. We`ll definitely be visiting The Travellers Rest in the very near future and will be recommending it to other family members and friends as an excellent place to eat out.

Visited here this evening a group of 10 girls, as soon as you go in you are made to feel welcome. The food is first class made to perfection, the staff go above and beyond, was served by Meryl and Lucy. They were both lovely and nothing was too much trouble, so polite and friendly couldn't wish for nicer people. Everything was great, prices are good plenty of choice. Will be back soon thankyou.

£10.95 for a basic turkey dinner with no stuffing, no cranberry sauce and one roast potato on my plate. Sorry but you need to do a lot better than that for £10.95 !!! 😳

Visited today for Sunday dinner with family and it was absolutely delicious. Have had about 6 dinners here this year and they are always beautiful. This is the closest to a home cooked dinner I have ever had. They always have 5/6 choices for Desserts and they are lovely too. Thanks to all involved for the smooth running of lunches as no sooner your meat arrives, veg is there and extra gravy follows seconds later, you don’t need to ask for anything.

We booked the Travellers Rest for our Wedding Reception held in June this year. Although it is just inside the Caravan Park it is not part of it and is run independently. The staff were so helpful in the planning of the event and gave us a lot of constructive advice. The food was top class and enjoyed by all the guests. The room was decorated by some of the family the night before and the staff even provided extras for us and so a most enjoyable experience. Also we have had Sunday lunch there previously with the family which again was delightful. Highly recommended.

I stayed on Pen-Y-Fan caravan and leisure park when in Wales for my sons wedding. At the entrance to the park is the Travellers Rest. After setting up the van , finding i had no electric and looking at the rest of the site i was not sure whether or not to give it a try as the site itself was very untidy and looked unloved. I decided to give it a go. On entering it was like another world !!!. Everything was spotless and well set out. Nice greeting from the staff who made me feel at home. A few days later i decided to have a meal there as the menu looked good. Very quick service and what fantastic value, everything was spot on. So good in fact i took the family there later in the week and they were amazed. The pub is really worth a visit. Great job team !!!.

Even though we have lived less than two miles from here for twelve years, we had never visited this place. We (two adults, OAP and five year old) went for Sunday lunch. The service was excellent and there was plenty of parking. There was a veggie option. Both the soup and pâté was very tasty for the starter course. The quality of meat (we had beef and turkey) was very good with a decent portion (kids portions were good too). There was a good choice of deserts and drinks available at the bar. We all agreed that it was much better than our usual haunts where we pay almost twice as much. We will be going back.

Went here on the spur of the moment, the restaurant was was very quiet, but then it was after 3pm. Food prices were good, 2 16 oz steaks, 1 veg lasagne, 2 pints (lager/cider) and a pint of squash, 3 desserts - £58. Good portion sizes and all meals were very good, steak cooked perfectly. Don't understand chips with lasagne, but the chips were nice nonetheless.

We came here last night (17/11/16) had a fantastic meal for my partner's birthday. My parents have been here before and have always had a great time. As it was both my partner and I first time here we did not really know the location that well - the only critique I have is the outside lighting was not on making us rely on Car lights to ensure we were at the right place. We were served by Meryl who gave us a warm welcome and a personalised service. The portion sizes are extremely generous. We all had the T-Bone steak which was on the specials board. Great tasting steak, cooked perfectly with generous servings of sides. As a pub/restaurant manager I found myself taking mental notes of what I could take back to my business. The service was A Class. Thank you for a fab night!!

My wife had gone abroad for a holiday and I don't like flying so instead of cooking for myself. I called into this place looking for something to eat for my lunch, it's a little off the beaten track but well worth the detour.I had a lovely welcome from the staff and ordered the beef dinner, which also included a dessert from the specials board. I was impressed with the décor in the restaurant, it is very nicely kept and the owners must be very proud of its appearance. My meal was beautifully cooked and good value. I noticed that they cater for children which is nice to see. Plenty of seating outside if the weather permits, ideal for a trip into the countryside

This is a charity run church business. The welcome is always warm. The food is freshly prepared and the prices are reasonable. Although this is a Christian run cafe religion isn't thrust upon you. My family goes there regularly. Overall a worm, welcoming cafe.
