Ty'r Winch in Cardiff

1st visit & was very impressed with the excellent food and service, will definitely be coming back. The fish and chips with curry sauce was excellent 👍

Had the most amazing welcome by Lucy xx, we had phoned prior to arriving and we were recommended this little gem of a place and is somewhere we will most definitely return and stay overnight. Our table was in front of the open fire and our precious dog was made so welcomexx I have to say the staff go way and beyond and Lucy and the manager were the perfect team thankyou😃ps Food and drink were fabulous also🙌

Had our works Christmas lunch yesterday and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the day. Setting was lovely, food outstanding and staff service wonderful. Will definitely be returning with family very soon. Would highly recommend as one of the best pub restaurant I have visited for a very long time.

I have had the pleasure of visiting twice !! What a fantastic place the staff are superb and such a lovely cosy environment I am in love 🥰 the food is all fresh and delicious this is my favourite place can’t want to visit again

Once again an absolutely delicious meal. Always book here when visiting Cardiff to see family. Can take our dog too which is great as don't go anywhere without him. Friendly staff. Best pub/restaurant ever. Thank you. Jan xxx

Went for a family celebration in the function room for a 3 course lunch, overall would give it 4 stars. 5 stars for the starter which was about the nicest prawn cocktail, 3 star for the dessert, sticky toffee, which smacked of being mass produced was somewhat dry and don't see the point of these fancy little saucepans used to hold the custard, which held about two spoons full. I would give the beef main course 4 stars, the gravy was thin and the two little roasties looked rather sad on the plate, the rest of the veg and beef was very tasty, The staff were nice but thought £9.99 for a glass of wine pricey.

We needed to visit St Mellons for a vow renewal and were advised this guest house was in the best location. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a staff member called Avril and she made me and my family feel at home immediately. We had travelled over 5 hours to this venue and we were immediately shown to our rooms, Avril ensured we had everything we needed and made us aware of the food and drink available in the pub next door. I can honestly say this is one of the nicest places I have had the pleasure of staying at. The quality of the rooms was exceptional and to a very high standard, which was only exceeded by the lovely staff. Every interaction was to a high standard ensuring that we did not feel like outsiders from Yorkshire, but part of the Ty'r Winch family. I would highly recommend Ty'r Winch to anyone who needs accommodation, good food and drinks in the area. When next visiting Cardiff I would not hesitate in booking with them again.

Went here after seeing some good reviews. Staff friendly and accommodating. Ordered drinks on arrival and had to wait quite a while for them to arrive at our table. Ordered our starters and main course. Starters arrived promptly. My prawn cocktail arrived in a wine glass! This made it awkward to get out of glass so I tipped it onto plate. Wasn't great I have to say. Little substance to it. Husband enjoyed the pate very much. Beef main arrived. Plenty of meat which was very tender. Vegetables were ok but nothing to write home about. Cauliflower cheese was ok but not put under grill to give a bit of colour. Roast potatoes were not crispy. Yorkshire pudding I gave to my husband, also stuffing on the plate which wasn't necessary. I also passed this over to my husband. Didn't order dessert as nothing appealed to us. Overall the meal was ok but I have had better. So after looking forward so much to this meal I did feel a little let down. A little more thought on the finer touches would have made the experience more enjoyable.

Food is excellent and such good value for money. Staff are ultra friendly. Love going there when in Cardiff visiting family. Can't wait to visit again!!!

Five stars and more lovely food staff and portion sizes are fab 👍been loads of times going again tonight 🤩🤩🤩🤩 this place is a gem 💎

Katsu curry was ace! Dropped in for dinner whilst in the area on business. Thought to have something a bit different and I wasn’t disappointed. The katsu curry was the best - flavoursome and beautifully presented.

£6:10 a pint is robbery, you can get 4 pints in cans for £6:50 from a shop , this is disgusting to charge that for a pint and when I asked for assistance to carry it outside for me as im disabled staff laughed and said we serve them not carry out hem out and also said if I drop the glass and it breaks I will be charged for it , disgusting way to treat disabled people , but then outside they brought other peoples order out to them so seems to me disability discrimination is a joke to them and to be ignored. Just 2 mins up the road is a much cheaper and better pub with much better staff who value disabled people and will assist you if asked . Never go to this pub ever again . Disgusting prices and service.

We hired the function room upstairs for a staff party. Great venue. Lorna couldn't have been more accommodating when arranging everything. On the night, the food and dj were great, and a special mention to the member of staff on the bar, the perfect host for the evening.

We visited for a family meal and we had our 8 month old grandson with us. The food was delicious it was well presented and arrived in good time, we didn’t have to wait long. Just as important as the food were the staff we had a couple of different waiters waitress who brought the food and drinks. They were a credit to the restaurant. Friendly, professional and attentive. Unfortunately the service in restaurants can be lacking but not here. I won’t hesitate to revisit and recommend you pay a visit.

Amazing spot to have dinner was outdoors but the layout was beautiful and just perfect. The weather was lovely so it made a difference but the food was outstanding. Also reasonably priced. We will definitely be back again thank you to all the staff that made it that extra nicer experience with friendly faces and happy to help.

Amazing place and service, nice drink… only my food… I had the specials… a big plate of seafood linguine…. It was beautiful and amazing presentation but unfortunately my linguine was overcooked, sticky, cold and tasteless… I had to add loads and loads of salt and pepper to be able to eat it…. It was quite disappointing….

I cannot rate this place enough . Me and my husband went for valentines and stayed over in the guest house. The guest house was spotless with everything you need and a lovely comfy bed. Went for a meal in the pub that evening, the pub is so pretty. Cosy fire just a wonderful atmosphere. Me and my husband had steak and we both said it was the best steak we have ever had. The staff can't do enough for you. The lady who was looking after us, wish I got her name , made us feel so welcome. We will definitely be going back. I don't have anything bad to say . It was just superb 👌

First time visiting here for Sunday lunch on recommendation . There were 3 of us, and we had pre booked. Lovely atmosphere here , lots of attentive staff . My wife and Mum in law gad sofr drinks but i had a superb pint of speckled he real ale (it really was excellent ) I also had a ery nice large glass of Malbec to accompany my meal. It was a pity that they had run out of lamb (as I was really looking forward to it ), but , having said that our beef and pork lunches were top drawer . I made my choice to go large , but tbh the others' normal lunches were plentiful . Massive Yorkshire puddings plenty of separate veg dishes served too , we also ordered some cauliflower cheese, which was also very good. We were told we could ask for more gravy and veg if needed(we did have more gravy) All in all, a very nice Sunday lunch, my large beef lunch was around £18 , and lots of it, too , excellent value .

Came with a couple of friends who had been several times! It was our first visit. It was a themed night with a 3 course meal! Great night, food tasty and atmosphere fantastic. We will look forward to visiting again 😊

A large group of us met up for a leaving party meal. We all had mains and some had desserts all of us had a wonderful time and our food was delicious. Great atmosphere and friendly staff made for a great evening, Mike and his team were wonderful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. What a lovely family friendly pub this is all can’t wait to return.

Our excellent local. Fab burger this time, hot, juicy, tasty; crisp, hot chips, good sauce. Filling and very tasty. We all finished off with Merlyn’s bread pudding - one of our regular favourites. Add the offer of CPR from Mike and you have a top notch meal out.

We booked this place on a travel day when we’d done enough driving and just needed a bed. It was a great room and we were lucky it was available at such short notice. Whilst it’s at a pub location, it’s not actually attached to the pub but across the other side of the car park. We had no noise from either pub or carpark. The room was tastefully and comfortably decorated with a good bed and bedding, a decent bathroom, good hot water and towels and somewhere to make a cuppa. The pub looked great but we hit the bed and watched some tv. Some time, we’ll be back for a meal at the pub too. Recommended.

Have been many times and always amazing, food is always amazing the staff are amazing and the atmosphere is amazing

What a lovely friendly pub to visit. The staff were so nice and attentive, beer was well kept and the food was delicious. You can sit where you like to eat, there is a separate dining room if that's what you fancy but we ended up next to the cozy log fire in the bar. We had the chicken Heliwr and the game casserole, both well presented and we cleared our plates.n Lovely atmosphere and will definitely be a regular pub to visit now.

This is my local pub and always feel very comfortable here, even on my own. I met my friend here to catch up on Christmas Eve and the lovely welcome, the music was not too loud the smell fire and warmth of the atmosphere was sublime. We had prawn cocktail and turkey dinner which was cooked to perfection. The staff are amazing and attentive, I will mention Michael and Joyce, but the rest of the staff you are the best. Definitely going to book for Christmas lunch next year. Thank you Andrew and Lorna xx

If you’re looking for a local pub meal at local pub prices without the local pub downsides…..Well what a lovely little pub this is, great welcome and then great staff throughout, food very reasonably priced and decent portions, menu good enough to suit all with fabulous dessert menu, tables are nicely spaced out so unlike other pubs your not sitting ontop of each other. Food came out at a nice pace and unlike other pubs no rowdy bar. All in all a great place that I would return to next time I’m passing through

We went here for Christmas lunch on 6th and also the 7th of December We brought 22 learning disability patients; they attend a meal out every year to different venues. However, Ty r Winch was by far the best that the patients have attended and enjoyed. They still are talking about how lovely there day and meal here was. The staff were so helpful and nothing was too much. The chefs went out their way to make up lots of take- aways as well due to some of our patients being unable to attend. Thankyou from Pinetree Hospital for all your efforts and fantastic staff and of course the Christmas lunch .

Another amazing Sunday lunch, it just gets better every time 👌 Food quality and portion size are very good and service always exceptional from Mike and staff.

Our favourite place for Sunday Lunch. Friendly, professional service, delicious traditional food, with a tasty vegetarian option. Always a warm welcome and a cosy atmosphere. Brilliant quality and value. Perfect!

My experience of the Tyr Winch first time around was fantastic and I’m delighted to say that second time around it was even better. I returned with my daughter and my Grandson for lunch on Thursday afternoon Parking was easy in their car park and although it was a busy lunchtime service they were more than accommodating They had an impressive menu with lunch deals which we took advantage of We picked four meals which we really couldn’t decide on and shared The faggots were very good and so was the battered cod We had a lovely Cajun chicken salad and a scampi dish I cannot emphasize enough just how important customer service is to any business Here you will see hospitality at its finest!! I noticed each and every customer was addressed and follow up visits to the table checking if everything was okay. The waiting staff all had their smart green bibs on and there was a great satisfied buzz in the pub. A big thank you to Mike our server who was yet again a credit to this establishment and to Andrew who we later found out to be the owner Congratulations on what you’re doing and we hope to see you again soon!!

Lovely place to stay , super friendly team, the room is clean tidy and well worth the money, the food served was second to none, the only drawback is they don’t serve a cooked breakfast but everything else more than makes up for that.

We went here on a sunny bank holiday Monday to be told we had to remove our hats as it was the owner’s policy. Question to the management - you do realise you’re a pub in St Mellon’s right? You’ve got customers in football tops,...
