Top Joes in Pembrokeshire

My partner and I went for dinner at Top Joe’s Narberth last night whilst on holiday - I had pizza, my partner had spaghetti bolognaise, and we shared a caprese salad. We had a lovely evening - delicious food, great atmosphere, with friendly and attentive service. We would highly recommend this restaurant.

Top Joes Narberth - Lovely Atmosphere, Amazing Friendly Staff, Was Perfect For A Birthday Celebration 🍕🎉☺️ xx

***EDITED*** I wasn`t expecting a reply in such way from the establishment. These days, people do use AI to simplify their lives, however by the sounds of things you and your establishment not aware of this. You have mushroom and courgette pizza options in your menu ! However I actually don`t remember mentioning that it was one pizza. I was there with my boyfriend and ordered more than one pizza. ***Original*** I visited Top Joe`s in the recent months and was prompted by google to review my visit, and unfortunately, my experience was not up to expectations. Food Quality: The mushrooms in my in my pizza were overcooked/charred , while the courgettes were raw. This imbalance in cooking made the pizza quite disappointing. I was hoping for a more balanced not so soggy pizza dish Service: The service was slow and inattentive. It took a long time for my order to arrive, and the staff seemed unresponsive. Additionally, I witnessed staff arguing with each other about their pay, which was unprofessional and uncomfortable for me and probably other diners. Cleanliness: I also noticed that the restaurant was not very clean. The tables were sticky, and the restrooms were not well-maintained. Suggestions: There are areas that need improvement. I would suggest ensuring that vegetables are cooked properly, training staff on customer service, and addressing any internal issues privately. Additionally, regular cleaning would greatly enhance the dining experience. I hope this feedback is helpful but for me I think I will skip Top Joe`s next time !

We had some lunch here as they had a children’s pizza menu. The pizza’s were very good and we found it quite difficult to choose given the quality selection. Also a decent drinks menu and the decor and atmosphere were lovely.

Absolutely disgrace. Hair in my Pizza and yuck. I asked for a replacement and sarcastic looks and guess what !!! My replacement pizza also had hair in it ! What is this, barbers pizza saloon ? I paid and walked out without eating any of the food. I will not visit this place again. For the record. Managers name Chris with an appalling attitude. I live in Natberth and unfortunately I have been a customer of this place many times. I have better things to do in my life than leaving fake reviews. Just shows even with their reply how appalling their customer service is.

4 Just cause of the delay in food.... Pizzas top notch.... Piccante is za best.... Don't forget to add burratas to ur pizzazzzz.....

We visited here tonight, looked stylish but an underwhelming greeting on arrival. Once seated we had drinks and ordered our starters. These took approximately 10 mins and were delicious. We were told our table was needed in an hour, our mains then took 45 mins to arrive! 3 pizza and a pasta. . . .the pizza was served on a plate so went cold and soggy very very quickly. Would be better served on a wooden board. We could taste the quality of the ingredients but sadly this was lost to the wait and soggy bottoms! We felt rushed to leave and were never asked if we wanted more drinks, our plates weren't cleared before puds were served and the coffee was so hot it took the roof of our mouths off! I had asked for the coffee to be not too hot!.... Overall disappointment all round to a much awaited meal.

Unfortunately we did not stay at the establishment as we visited the town following a funeral, but we did stop by this beauty and had a spot of lunch. The General aesthetic of the venue was beautiful. It had a nice chilled vibe and was decorated lovely throughout. The service was great and the food was very tasty. Our table had 2 pizza and 2 pasta dishes and the lot was polished off with no complaints. Location is great with a nice view of the town hall perfect for those who like to watch the world go bye and just around the corner from the car park. I'd highly recommend stopping off here for a bit to eat and would love to return for a chilled evening with a few drinks and maybe even stay now I know it has accommodation. The food and drink was fairly priced at just over £20 for a decent size pizza and a can of soda.

A good dining experience on the whole. Pizzas recommended. Had the gnocchi & rabbit which was fine but a little tight on the portion size. Good location and experience.

Great venue. Great village. Great Saturday night out in Narberth. Bit slow in Top Joe's tonight. New chef, big party, food good when it did arrive. Nice servers.

Had a fantastic stay here and ate twice at the restaurant for dinner. The food was incredibly delicious, fast service and very friendly staff. Will definitely be coming back next time we visit Pembrokeshire.

First room allocated was very disappointing (junior suite) but Callum went above board to upgrade us for the second night. Far nicer room and what you'd expect for the cost. Breakfast was a continental affair which was ok. Didn't eat at the restaurant as it's mostly pizzas etc.

Pizza was very good, service was okay

Pizza was very good, service was okay

We visited the restaurant in a large family group on 30th August, lovely setting, good menu, reasonably priced food, staff very attentive (young man and young woman) especially as only two waiting on that night they were rushed off their feet but we're extremely professional and courteous, I cannot praise them highly enough, thank you so much we had a really happy evening

We didn't stay here, we ate here one evening. The service was lovely, the atmosphere was good and the food was great. The pizza was so fresh and tasty. I would highly recommend eating here.

These pizzas are the closest to tasting Italy... without going to Italy! The staff couldn't be more accommodating with dietary requirements. THE BEST gluten-free I've EVER eaten! Thank you! Keep it up!

Fast friendly service, great food, book in advance.

The food was outstanding. Would definitely recommend it.

Didn't stay here, but ate pizza.... Delicious! Price on the higher side, but good atmosphere and service.

Quite pricey. Not a lot of mushrooms on the Fungi pizza. Children's meal also pricey.

Nice looking place, service, and food lacking. Took 1 hour to serve up two bowls of dry cold pasta.i have had better mico meals. We also had two black pizzas, had to ask 3 times for the bill before finally comment on the situation, and would have given zero star if possible.

Amazing food, wonderful staff, thank you guys

Very nice rooms great. food very nice staff

Really comfortable rooms and a lovely breakfast!

Excellent pizza, my 3 year old was the happiest I've ever seen her. Thank you

Overpriced for pizza imo and £3 for garlic sauce. Pizzas went cold quick, maybe warm the plates before bringing out?

We ordered food for takeaway. Everything was cooked fresh, the garlic breads were light fluffy and flaky and the bread was very nice really good flavours of garlic running though these. The pizza and the flavours were fresh and authentic. Really good thin pizzas definitely worth the price

Went out for a birthday meal at top Joe’s this evening, would highly recommend. One of the best pizzas Iv tried 🙌🏼 lovely staff there too xx

My partner and I called on spec today whilst in Narberth. We were nicely greeted and quickly seated. A jug of iced water was served along with drinks list and menus. Our orders for pizza and coffees were taken. In due course the freshly made coffees were served. A few minutes later so we're out pizzas. Made to order and absolutely delicious were both the pepperoni one and fucini ( mushroom) one. This lovely restaurant has plenty of seating, both indoors and outside for the lovely summer months. I would recommend booking in busy periods. There are dog friendly areas outside. Children are welcome. We found close by on street parking. Set in the middle of town this place is must for pizza lovers.

Beautiful restaurant, very cosy with the huge log burner roaring away. Fabulous decor, clean and tidy. Served by a really lovely lady from Zimbabwe, who was kind, helpful and attentive. Food was the best I've had in a long time, pizza was so so delicious as was the pasta 😋🤌 Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back.

Great place to eat with friends or family

Had as takeaway- very good! Only thing I’d say is to change website around ordering more than certain amount of items. We ordered 4 pizzas & garlic bread and when I tried to add dips on it said maximum items reached and to call order through…. So didn’t bother ordering dips- possibly would be more commercial to limit volume of main dishes / sides and make dips etc supernumerary to that?

Fantastic food accompanied by a nice cold Italian beer, enjoyed next to a warm fireplace. Great service, ambience, looking forward to visiting again.

I took my family here last night as we had something special to celerbrate. We were seated, orders taken and then we waited and waited and waited, 45 mins later Garlic bread arrived ( the only side order we ordered ) 25 mins later so 1hour and 10 mins since we sat down , the table behind us arrived after us, ate and left before we even had our food. We began to wonder where on earth our pizzas were, a lady from the kitchen walked past so I asked her how long our food would be, she was incredibly rude, carried on walking and just said "I don't know i don't work out here I'm in the kitchen" I went to the bar and asked how long our food would be, the waitress made some excuse saying the printer hadnt sent our order to the kitchen ( surely she or one of the other waitresses should have realised we were still waiting) food did finally arrive and it was delicious but our evening was ruined by such a long wait and poor service . As we were celebrating we would have spent more money on drinks, dessert etc but we all felt miserable and hungry just waiting so skipped the dessert and extra drinks and asked for our bill, I explained we were unhappy with the service, the lady took 50% of our bill but to be honest it really had nothing to do with money , we were more than happy to pay the prices we just wanted quicker , better service, it was a real let down and I'm afraid we won't be visiting again.

We visited for dinner and it was great- lovely pizza, great selection of drinks and desert, and prompt service. Thank you

Fabulous meal at Top Joe's Narberth. The best pizza I have ever tasted. Freshly stone baked. Very friendly and welcoming. Lovely decor. Will definitely return.

Warm welcome and great service. Super comfy bed and plenty of hot water. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back

First Time visitors, everything was lovely, Only little issue was temperature, we felt very cold. After mentioning, it was rectified straight away. We'll be back.

food was amazing, very reasonably priced and front of house were lovely and polite :)

Accommodating for our toddlers meal, but not overly impressed on any of the other meals. My pizza was very limp when I picked it up, the base could have been cooked a little longer. If they were not the only place open we would not have eaten there as it was a little pricey.

We haven’t checked out, with another night to stay, but wanted to comment on Top Joe’s. It’s perfect in all aspects. Rooms, service, food quality and courteous staff. Location is great for access to many parts of the area. Perhaps we should have booked longer. Dog friendly which is also a bonus. Thank you for a lovely, relaxing stay

We stayed here for a week in september. There was a hitch the 1st night but managment sorted the problems correctly so no all was fine. The rooms are beautifully furnished in wonderful period style. Very well appointed. All the staff were very friendly and efficient. Made our stay a real pleasure. Terrific pizzas and pasta dishes. Would definitely stay agsin if in the area.

Superb pizzas! We didn't stay here but just called in for an evening meal. We tried booking a table online but phoned when it suggested it was fully booked. Thankfully, they weren't. The food was promptly served, and both pizzas were truly delicious. I definitely recommend it.

Very large room with good outdoor space, good dinner and nice service

Awful,, and grubby paid for the room after dinner then had an email saying I haven’t paid. and a phone call asking about payment made to feel like a criminal very disappointed

We had excellent food, good service all in a nice location.

Fit us in last minute for a table of two. Fast and lovely service, the garlic aioli was delicious. Would visit again and recommend

I come here every day. It's delicious.

The most amazing pizza I have ever had! Le Capre was just outstanding. Lovely restaurant. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.

Awful Service, Rude Staff, & Missing Food! We visited on a Tuesday evening & as soon as we arrived I got the impression they were rushed off their feet, even though the place was half empty. They just told us where our table was rather than taking us to sit down & no one explained the specials or asked if we had any questions. Not great, but not the worst thing to happen. The waiter came to take our order, it had been a while & we were ready to order everything, but were asked to just order drinks. We ordered those & also snuck in a few garlic breads to share while we waited. The garlic bread came quick enough & the dough was really really good! They also accommodated adding cheese, which wasn’t on the menu. Really delicious! However, by the time we had finished the garlic bread, our drinks still hadn’t arrived & we still hadn’t been able to order mains. Eventually the drinks arrived & we were able to order our food - 4 pizzas, 3 pastas, 1 side. By the time our food arrived we had been there well over an hour. My pizza was delicious - the flavour was good & the dough was again very tasty! However, they had forgotten 1 of the pasta dishes, got 1 of the pizzas wrong, and we later realised that the side never even turned up! They did whip up a quick pasta & gave a brief apology. When we said about the wrong pizza, we were told ‘With the utmost respect, you asked for the mushroom one’. There were 2 mushroom ones on the menu, so even if that was the case (which it wasn’t) they should have clarified which one. They did take the pizza back though & made the correct one for us pretty quickly. The carbonara was horrid. It got passed around the table, everyone having a try, & was eventually left, but we had eaten too much between us to then complain, so we ordered an extra Margherita instead. Everyone carried on eating while this happened & I’d say overall the remaining dishes were nice. The pizza took so long that everyone had finished & we asked the waiter to instead make the pizza to go (still no sign of it). We waited another 20 mins or so after this, at which point half the party got bored of waiting & left. 2 of us remained behind to collect the pizza. After around another 10 mins I started watching out for a waiter to ask, but no one appeared. I eventually caught sight of a waitress down by the kitchen so I went to ask her. She had her back to me & barely turned around when I spoke to her. She said something to the chef & shrugged at him. While the waitress remained with her back to me, the chef then started trying to shout over her head to me. I had to repeat what I’d originally asked the waitress several times. The chef was then incredibly rude & started shouting at me multiple times that he didn’t know, that wasn’t his job, & that I should have gone to front of house. I wasn’t even speaking to him in the first place! All this time, the waitress remained with her back to me. Not a single shred of trying to help. At this point, we were fed up & left having paid for a pizza & a side that we never received. The only good thing about this place was the dough, which was unfortunately massively overshadowed by the rude & slow service. We certainly won’t be returning & would advise others against visiting!

Best pizza I've had in a long time.

There were possibly 12 people seated in this restaurant. The woman at reception refused to serve us. It was 7:30pm on Tuesday and Open. She was very rude to us saying she didn’t have to explain why she wouldn’t serve us. To give perspective…two well dressed women and one male, all completely sober and friendly (after a lovely day sightseeing), all in early 60’s and hungry after a long day. Not somewhere I would recommend to visit (unless you’re into being abused)

Lovely location and interior design, great fire. The shared starter of charcuterie was delicious and the portions not ungenerous. The pizzas were tasty though rather runny for our taste. Prices reasonable.

Incredible pizza and service is fantastic, staff are a credit to the restaurant! Will definitely return 👌

Some of the best pizzas I have ever tasted. The staff and owner were very friendly and chatty. Great value for money. Will be coming back during our next holiday. 👍🏻👍🏻

How they call themselves top joes is beyond me. The pizza are horrendous, so thin that they devolve into the paper...toppings slide off they there paid to...I'd never recommend top joes to anyone! Island do a better pizza

Found this gem of a Pizza restaurant in Narberth today Good choice of menu, not too expensive. Cosy surroundings and very clean. Pleasant and friendly staff. Thoroughly enjoyed our Pizza's will definitely go back.

Had a lovely meal here , the pizza inferno and ravioli special were delicious. Great food and Elena who served us was really friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend and come back!

I love the decor in this place. The staff were all so nice and friendly during our visit. I enjoyed my pizza but my boyfriend on the other hand prefers a more deep pan style pizza so he wasn't a huge fan of his pizza. There's a lot of choice when it comes to toppings and a good selection of vegeterian options too

Was booked in for my Dad's 50th however when we arrived soon found out from a member of public that the restaurant was shut leaving us withy no where to go. Very unprofessional for not letting us know

Fabulous food.....great service from Elena and Poppy.Great place to be well done Dan....

Fantastic service and delicious food. My 8 year old would give it 10 stars but I'm only allowed give 5 on here

We were pleased to happen upon Top Joes in Narberth as we were really craving some classic Italian pizza. The pizza did not disappoint - it was authentic, well cooked, fresh and tasty. I would have liked to give 3.5 stars ideally as 3 feels a bit low but the service was not fantastic. I totally understand the strain on the hospitality industry at present, however we waited a fair while at the door with no communication at all from the staff despite two ladies clearly seeing us waiting. Our drinks were really quite aggressively put down on our table and generally things felt a bit tense. After around 30 minutes the restaurant seemed to clear out and our waitress seemed to relax a bit and became a lot more polite and smiley which was appreciated I also had to mark down due to wasps being in the bar area. This might seem unfair but I just cannot get on board with any description of "pests" being in an indoor restaurant/bar. I choose to eat inside for a reason and I really don't appreciate being on edge during what should be a leisurely lunch. All in all if takeaway was an option here I would definitely partake as the pizzas were really good and although I wouldn't say no, I would also not rush back to dine in the restaurant 👍

Friendly staff. Lovely food especially the tagliatelle.

Fab wood fired pizza. Standard prices but nice setting.

Great pizza, lovely service and good beer, all at reasonable prices.

Service poor, no menu explanation or special board offered, staff not very attentive, over priced. Sorry but maybe a bad night.

Food is excellent but just need to work on the service. Two of our party received their food after all others had finished.

Delicious pizza, great flavours and good size. Unpretentious little restaurant, nicely decorated.

Awesome food served with a smile.

Great pizza, nicely decorated, clean and spacious restaurant. The staff were all amazing apart from one Italian lady who would not allow us to order an extra two Pizzas (at 7pm) for take away after paying over £100 while dining in. They offered a take away service and we also saw other tables receiving take away boxes so felt let down by this request and had no explanation as to why we were not allowed to take some pizza home for those looking after our dogs. Apart from that incident it's was a great dinner and it's a lovely place, so I would recommend.

Lovely light crust and tasty classic pizza. Massively understaffed though so the two waitresses were running around like headless chickens. Other annoying thing was that they didn’t have any ice on one of the hottest days of the year! According to the manager the ice machine has been broken for 6 months and they have been buying it each day. We ended up getting our own from the pub down the road. They kindly gave us ours drinks for of charge.

Absolutely delicious pizza! Staff are super friendly too :)

Popular local restaurant with friendly staff and fabulous pizza. Highly recommended

Genuinely one of the best pizzas I’ve had. Great vibe and lovely staff, I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Great food, good service and friendly welcome

Great food, great price, nice atmosphere, and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Unassuming Italian place on Narberth high street, completely exceeded our expectations - run by a friendly Italian family and with a proper Italian chef running the Kitchen, we were blown away to discover a lovely 8 year old bottle of Barolo and excellent home made ravioli on the menu. Yes it is a neighbourhood pizza joint (the pizzas looked great) , but they are also serving up food and wine of real quality for anyone wanting to take their evening to the next level! Keep up the good work, highly recommended :)

Lovely staff, delicious pasta, amazing wine! Couldn’t ask for more, thanks very much :)

Great to be able to eat at a restaurant first one since all the lockdown, Joe's did not disappoint, good service, Pizzas so fresh and tasty..

Delicious lunch yesterday at Top Joe’s. My husband had what he described as the “best pizza” he’d ever eaten and my perfectly cooked asparagus ravioli with a generous side salad was delicious.

We love going to this restaurant. Very helpful staff and good menu. Love the intimate decor and a real log fire! The courtyard is great for the summer months to eat out.

Our first lunch treat after the ‘firebreak lockdown’ and it could not have exceeded our hopes any further. Staff are attentive and delightful, the pizzas are utterly beautiful, and the environment you’ll quite happily sit in all afternoon if necessary until you can fit in another pizza.Pizza crust: astonishingToppings: ditto, especially the prosciutto and rocket optionPrices: amazingly reasonable, for the wine list tooComplaints: absolutely none whatsoeverVerdict: top, top, top, Joe

Billed as Italian, certainly has Italian cuisine. But service could be better. Would be nice to be treated as a person and not - "Sit here, eat and then leave" which was my impression.

Excellent food and service, will definitely go again

Whilst camping @follyfarmwales we popped to Narberth for some lunch not even realising it was Bank Hol Monday and many places I'd found to cater were fully booked! We found this little gem @topjoespizzeria was open and not only gluten free but also dairy free cheese!I ordered the Funghi, a kids pizza with dairy free cheese and ham and my husband ordered the PepperoniWe didn't have to wait too long for our piping hot pizzas to come out! The base was lovely! It wasn't necessarily a freshly made gf base but it was a lovely light one all the same. Not the crackerboard ones you can sometimes find! The dairy free cheese was lovely no over powering flavour and quite similar in taste to mozzarella. On a covid side note they had a one way system and someone greeting you at the door with a table stopping anybody walking in, which worked brilliantly! Plenty of space between each table also.Service was fab and all the waitresses were very friendly and took our allergies and intolerances very seriously and make clear notes of each.

Staying in the boutique B&B upstairs. We shared a garlic bread with cheese which was a pizza base, then we had a bolognese which was delicious.

We popped in for lunch and had a pizza and a pasta dish. Very tasty and delicious! This is fine dining Italian style at its best x

Delicious food! Real Italian pizza - those who say the pizza was burnt simply do not know what a real pizza is

Pizzas were nice and tasty, drinks here are very expensive. £3 for a small 330ml coke

I took my 3 boys here while staying in Narberth and we ate a variety of pasta and pizzas, which were clearly freshly made and very tasty. I have had worse pizza in Italy!2 courses with soft drinks for 4 people cost us around £75.We liked it so much we went back the following day!One small point - the mozzarella in my caprese salad was much too chewy. Other than that, all the food was excellent. N.B. if you are there at a busy time, you may need to book in advance.

This pizzeria is interesting and recommended because it provides good value, tasty food and the staff are simply exceptionally friendly and efficient.

Went here last night with my family (4 of us) and Food was quite nice actually although also quite over priced considering the portions weren't huge and bread was burnt all over. Also, it was quite concerning to us that they failed to adhere to the social distancing guidelines as we were not asked for any details for track and trace other than our reservation name. Also there was no social distancing inside the restaurant as we were surrounded by other tables of people very close to us as well.

Not as good as it looks i was surprisingly let down by the food being lukewarm and service took ages .

We just had a pizza each and they were amazing. The ladies who served us were very friendly and helpful. I asked for artichoke on my pizza and that was met with “of course” and a smile. Very nice decor. The only slight criticism is that we would have had starters but 2 were bread based and 2 were charcuterie/meat so not for us.

What a place. WE had wonderful service - adhered to COVID rules. Staff were friendly and professional. It's dog friendly too. I had an amazing veggie pizza, it was freshly cook and tasted superb.

We live quite close to Narberth so have previously had a good experience here with good coffee and delicious ravioli and pizzas. Sadly not last Monday when, having praised the place up, we joined some really close visiting friends who we hadn't seen for ages. Oh dear, firstly the waitress nonchalantly told us there was no coffee, apparently the hot water machine wasn't working, no apology. I then asked for the specials board and was bluntly told that there weren't any today. We all ordered pizzas which arrived over an hour later again with no apology for the delay, they were as previously mentioned soggy in the middle. When we had nearly finished our meals the waitress asked if everything was ok, a bit late I'd say. Please Joe take note of these comments, you could be first class. I know times are difficult but it would be better to open just for drinks on the days you don't have your brilliant chef than get these occasional bad reviews, perhaps just close on one or two days. I want to be able to give a 5* review next time so get your act together please!

Really impressed by Top Joes. We started with garlic bread and bread and olives, both of which were delicious. Our pizzas were great too. Some different toppings, highly recommend the Zucchini. The wait staff were lovely and friendly. Would definitely go back.
