Spectacular views great location! Lovely cosy rustic interior. Clean and good variety of food that was well presented, cooked well and tasty after long walks exploring. We had fish & chips. Facilities were clean. No dogs inside pub only outside on veranda that’s ok in good weather with amazing views of the beach and bay. Great verity of ales and beers. Friendly staff. Value for money. Children welcomed and catered for. Added Historical interest was very interesting

Sitting outside in the sun the views are stunning, great place for a drink, food was classic pub grub, nothing special but tasty, big portions and compared the central England very good value. Bit of a pain queuing at the bar with just the 2 gents serving (who were working very hard), but food was served fairly quickly and friendly to table. Nice range of beers. Very Dog friendly outside, plenty of bowls and water available.

Fabulous views from the dining room, or outdoor deck. And this is where we had our BEST fish and chips during our week on the Gower Peninsula

Probably the best location in the world... I am a Swansea resident and have been for 8 years. I've been here several times. First up it overlooks rhosilli bay... Which I itself is a major plus. The staff here are brilliant. Friendly. Chatty. Efficient. Attentive. Even the owner is a nice guy. I ordered the Welsh Rarebit and traditional fish and chips. The starter was lovely. The salad fresh and tasty. The Rarebit was lovely.. Only slight criticism would be it was quite soft. The chutney was amazing. The fish and chips next. Firstly the chips are second to none. Triple cooked and done so to a high standard. The fish batter was perfect and the size of the fish was huge! Again only a slight critique... The fish itself was quite soggy but perfectly edible. I've been here multiple times and will continue to do so. It's location, staff and food are of a high quality. Don't delay... Go visit today!

I’d recommend this place if you’re looking for a quick drink with a pretty view, but that’s about it. Don’t waste your time or money on the cold, sloppy and overpriced food. Don’t expect a warm welcome from the staff either.

Can’t comment on the food because they wouldn’t let us in with our dog. It was a bitterly cold and windy day, midweek lunchtime in January, the bar had a wooden and tiled floor (not at all polished) and the large bar /restaurant area (which had fantastic views) was virtually empty. Really can’t see why they would say we had to eat outside - we refused and ate elsewhere.

We stayed at The Worm’s Head Hotel for my birthday celebration. After a long walk we arrived to a warm welcome. Dinner in the bar area was delicious and the atmosphere friendly and relaxed. Our room was comfortable with a view to die for and the breakfast and service the next morning was excellent. Highly recommend

We were looking for a nice lunch but unfortunately did not find it. After waiting to be seated by the sign which indicated to do so and being ignored several times we were told to “just sit down”. We left shortly after sitting due to the rude manner of andrew who was the member of staff that ‘welcomed’ us. Would not recommend.

AWFUL customer service! The woman who served us made us feel like we were a huge inconvenience just by ordering some food! I went to change a filling in a roll shortly after ordering (misheard what my sister in law wanted!) And the member of staff rolled her eyes at me, and exhaled loudly. Made a mountain out of a molehill. Food average. Views beautiful, but because of the customer service we definitely won't be back. Would not recommend.

The Works Head Hotel provides all you need for this stunning location. Staff are very friendly lead by Adrian. The food is of a good standard and there is quite a variety of choice. Can recommend the fish and chips. If you want amazing views of both Rhossil bay and the worms head, room 3 is perfect. We will definitely return in the future.

Being on my own, it was hard to reserve a table for me, which needed to be done before an order was placed, but in the end some people let me share theirs. I queued for 20 mins to place an order, to then find that the food would take 45 mins to an hour so I walked out. Yes, I understand this was the first sunny day for ages, but I can’t be the only solo diner who wouldn’t be able to reserve a table first.

After a long day exploring rockpools on Rhosilli beach then walking across the causeway and climbing worms head, this pub was perfectly positioned for a much needed rest and rehydrate. We stopped for dinner with our 7 year old daughter and she had kids chicken nuggets (of course) with chips and beans. The portion size was excellent and she finished the lot! My partner had Gluten free Fish and chips with mushy peas.... The fish was huge and the batter was fantastic even for GF. I had the whole hog burger which was another level of deliciousness! Pork burger, black pudding, bacon, mustard..... Heaven! Plenty of outdoor seating (picnic style benches but the comfier kind) and DOGS ARE WELCOME OUTSIDE.... ignore the review recently saying they aren't. P.s check the specials board near the bar before ordering as theres more then on the normal menu.

This place is trading very much on what is most probably the most outstanding view on the Gower, if only the food was anywhere near as good. I ordered the Welsh Rarebit expecting some lovely thick slices of bread oozing with melted cheese. What could be easier? What i got was some very dry slices of thin French stick with a thin layer of something dry and brown, with no visible or taste of cheese, see picture. It was served with a sticky small pot of pickle on the side which st least made it edible, just. My partner’s loaded fries were dry thick cut frozen oven chips with some bits of bacon, sour cream and a small amount of cheese. Nearly £9 each an utter rip off. We will admire the view from the car park next time and take a picnic. Suffice to say we would not return or recommend.

Booked a table for 5 for lunch but when we got there, they hadn't reserved a table. The woman behind bar looked vacant at us when we walked in. She started putting tables together but we had a dog so she said we had could only sit out side. It was raining out and the dog was an assistance dog,, so we sat in bar area. To cut a story short, the service was not good and waiter kept stretching over me to hand plates out, even though he could have walked around table and placed people's meals in front of them. When one of our party had nearly finished he stood waiting for plate. My husband went outside to vape and after he came back in out of rain, a member of staff came to table to tell him not to vape in pub, even though he hadn't. 10 minutes later she came back and said no dogs allowed even though it was explained about it being an assistance dog, obviously she didn't believe us as she wanted proof it was. Food was oK but presentation was not thought of when they served the meal. If you go there to eat don't expect good service or food well presented on plate. I would avoid the steak as it was nothing special but the fish and chips, faggots and peas and also loaded fries were all tasty.

We visited on a hot sunny day at lunchtime . There was a long queue as I don't think there were any other places open. The A board outside said they were short staffed, trying their best and food could take an hour. Great to have all that information to help you decide if you want to wait. We decided to wait. There was one queue for everything, which made the queue very long. It took about 15mins to place our order. We managed to find a table on the terrace and settled down and enjoy the view. Food took about 40mins to arrive. It was served in a box which seems common place since Covid. The fish and chips were freshly cooked and delicious. We had a lovely lunch with the most stunning view.

We visited Rhossili to see the sunflowers, grab a bite to eat and watch the sunset, it didn’t go to plan. The Sunflowers were beautiful and the view was amazing at 7.15 we popped into the Worms Head Hotel Bar to grab a bite to eat, the tables outside were full so we got a sticky table inside, I went to the bar and ordered drinks and got a menu, this was a little slow. Within minutes a waitress appeared and took a food order, I thought great we can eat and go watch the sunset perfect. 45 minutes later as the sun was setting the food arrived the 8oz burger was about 5oz and looked microwaved, the bun was nice, it was bun, lettuce, burger and cheese which was an extra £1.50 no relish and a few chips a bit crazy for the £13 price tag (including the cheese) my partner had a five been chilli which she said was lovely. As the sunset slipped away we tried to order dessert, the bar wouldn’t take a food order and girl clearing our table said she would get a waitress who never arrived, I spoke to a waiter who never looked up or made eye contact he’d said the kitchen was closed as food was going passed us we gave up and left after missing the sunset.Just disappointed this place could be so much more.Great location, perfect view terrible service

Hard to understand why there are so many snide reviews about this place. The location is second to none, and the rooms are perfectly adequate for the price. Think of it as a pub with rooms - rather than expecting a swish hotel - and you won’t be disappointed. Certainly we enjoyed it as much as better rated inns nearby. The family rooms were all booked for our dates so we ended up with three rooms, all of which were pleasant and with great views. Breakfast was good, as was the evening meal we had, although we did find the choice a little limited. It was extremely windy on our visit, so sadly the outside terrace had to stay closed - we’ll come back hopefully on a day when it’s open and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. The views were outstanding, the service friendly and helpful, and the rest - all absolutely fine.

I used to come here a lot as a child, from about 5 years old (25 now). Since then this place has turned into a for profit money making machine and it’s very upsetting to see. Staff are unbelievably rude, took over half an hour to get even get a drink after ordering (we had to remind them). Once we ordered food £9.95 for a club sandwich. It had 3 strips of chicken, one small slice of egg and a little salad no chips or crisps with it. That is disgraceful and if I was the chef I would be embarrassed. £32 for 4 lagers and a awful sandwich. This view is the only thing keeping this restaurant going and it’s so sad to see how far it has fallen since it’s former glory

Our experience was one of the worse experiences of customer service EVER! We arrived at the entrance to the pub/ hotel at 7.35pm, where there was a notice to remain patient and advice that customers would be served as soon as service was available. After ten minutes a waitress explained that the wait would be a further 10 minutes. We sought confirmation that food would be served and told it would. I asked if I could take a chair and sit in the queue as i have a disability and needed to sit down. I was told to sit down where I was. I waited. A waitress came and invited us to our table. We sat down. She returned to ask us what we would like - “the menu please” - “ we are not serving food after 8pm” It was 7.55pm but this made no difference. The waitress apologised as we left. We were hungry. As we exited my partner spoke to the Landlord to explain we had waited for nearly 30 minutes. The Landlord said this was impossible as he had let someone in at 7.50pm. This simply wasn’t true (unless it was at another entrance). My partner said he had a parking ticket to confirm our arrival. The ONLY thing to recommend this hotel/ restaurant is the view. the service is appalling. As I sat waiting to be shown to our table, a waitress was complaining about customers and their attitudes. Unbelievable.If you want a good view and a long wait and very poor service, by all means head to this restaurant. If you want a friendly service and delicious pizza, head to the Lookout =- MUCH better. And look at the view from the car park!

Everything was delicious.We have enjoyed a variety of food in the restaurant on many previous visits and hope that they can hire sufficient kitchen staff in the near future to bring their menu to its former glory.We look forward to further visits in the coming weeks.

Pretty poor fare at full pub food prices. I'd avoid for anything else but a drink if you are thinking of making a visit.

Dreadful experience l wouldn’t recommend going there at all unless you just want to sit at a table looking at views with no food or drink order taken and to be rudely ignored !!! We found another delightful place to eat The look out a little further up who knows how to treat customers and make them feel welcome and the food was delightful. I would recommend you eat there instead and give this place a complete miss !! Wouldn’t give it any stars but in order to publish my review I have reluctantly given it one star !

Stopped in here for some much needed refreshments following a day on the Rhossilli beach. Service was fabulous, got it off to a tee with the current restrictions. Friendly staff and awesome views.

This meal was the worst meal I have ever had. My wife and I both had the cod, chips and mushy peas. The meal was presented in a cardboard box with wooden knives and forks. Eating the food was so difficult that we ended up eating it with our fingers, just like McDonalds, not a restaurant. The batter on the fish was too greasy that we left it. The chips were like crisps so we left that as well. The peas soaked into the paper so I was picking up and eating paper with the peas. We both left our meals. Drinks were in a plastic container that were so thin and flimsy that I needed two hands to take a drink. I complained to the waiter and he said that he would tell the chef at the end of his shift as he was too busy. I doubt very much if my grievances were passed on.There are many eating places in this small village, give this one a wide birth.

Arrived and not surprised had to queue to enter which was fine. One way system through the bar to find a table outside. No explanation from bar staff given so have to go out and queue again to order drinks. Take a photo of the menu on your way through as this will prevent you from having to queue twice (drinks then food) Food was very average - won’t be rushing back. Also, the tables didn’t look like they were sanitised between customers, plates left on tables and having to ask staff to remove them which was done without even a wipe down Better to take a picnic and sit on the grass - same view. Such a shame as this hotel has the best view

Beautiful views and fantastic walks, had lunch which was just ok but the cheesy garlic bread was so tasty. The area is absolutely breathtaking and if you haven’t been your missing out. There was a very large car park and it was £6. All day .

This pub is worth going to simply to sit outside and enjoy the view with a drink.It is a few years since I have been and am very surprised that it still seems to offer a very basic meal experience and tatty facilities. At some stage it will be bought up and spruced up and available only to those with very deep pockets. Do go while you can the view is breathtaking.

We visited on Mon 24 Aug 20 and were looking forward to a nice lunch. The restaurant was not taking part in the Help Out scheme.The choices on the board were very limited for us, and we decided to just have the prawn cocktail and sides of garlic bread. It was the first prawn cocktail I've had which did not have Marie Rose or mayonnaise sauce. We could have mayonnaise in a sachet, but that is not the same. It was also quite pricey.Will we go again - most certainly not. The view is wonderful, but take sandwiches or a picnic and save yourself money.

The food has seriously gone down hill since last year. We got boxed fish and chips, okay thats the same in most places these days but the chips were nearly charcoal they were so well done and fish was a small factory produced fillet. The chippy in the nearby village produces a far better dish for alot less. The view is nice but the food abysmal.

The fish and chips was fairly average, not much better than a chippy. It was 'takeaway' too, so presented in a cardboard box for which you paid nearly £12. As it was 'takeaway' even though you were sitting on sight and it was delivered to your table, it didn't qualify for 'Eat Out to Help Out'. It had the atmosphere of a slightly chavvy pub, fine if you like that sort of thing in 2020. Could do with a re-furb.We only ate here because it was the last place open - we would probably have got our food from the nearby takeaway and sat on the grass with the same view!

Unfortunately they obviously don’t care about the quality of food as the view is beautiful. I had the chicken curry, very dry chicken, limited sauce and £11! Partner had prawn salad and garlic mushrooms, not much food and poor tasting. My son had chicken nuggets and chips, only had 5 tiny pieces of chicken. Go for a lovely drink but avoid the food.

Visit here about once a year and always makes me chuckle at how nothing ever changes.As the title says the whole point of this place is the superb view and the chance to have a drink overlooking some absolutely stunning scenery.Don’t eat anything and don’t allow yourself to get disappointed at the bored-looking employees who stand behind the bar and eye you with suspicion as you dare to walk into their public bar, the old-fashioned décor, terrible service and rude demeanour (in the main) of the majority of staff. Just buy a drink and make your way out on to the patio area. Enjoy the view. Then leave.Yesterday’s ‘entertainment’ came in the form of an older guy (owner?) remonstrating with a group of customers who had dared to bring a dog with them. Firstly accused them of bringing their own food with them – turns out it was a little tub of dog treats. Then told them they were sat in the wrong place - despite there being no signs to say that.His aggressive manner escalated the situation and the whole party ended up leaving. I wonder how many times a week that happens? From what I can see (and what a lot of reviews seem to suggest) I doubt they’re really bothered at the loss of trade. I assume most customers are passing tourists and are unlikely to come back. I suspect the establishment wouldn’t last very long if it had to rely on regular, returning customers.Great view though

We visited here on the 28th July, I had fish, chips and mushy peas, my husband a burger and daughter chicken burger. The food was well cooked and very generous portions, the chips were homemade and gorgeous. The chicken burger was just pure chicken Brest. We felt they were very organised and helpful as they had only been open for a couple of weeks serving ‘takeaway’ food. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. If we had seen the previous review may have given it a miss. Would highly recommend and the views are simply stunning from the outside terrace.

We visited here and went through entrance. Hand sanitizer on way in and ordered our drinks. Whilst outside no one was cleaning the tables properly and when we did ask he used a wet cloth. I then went to use the toilet to be told that they were closed and to use the national trust ones at the bottom of carpark. These toilets we not cleaned all day and were filthy. Even had a sign saying use at your own risk. Waiters clearly had no guidance how to serve food during these times. My advice would be to go to the king Arthur hotel. Much better prepared and run. Also food was much nicer there.

This pub definitely has the best sunset in wales. Its cosy inside but the main attraction is the view from the outside which is unbeatable. Because of this drinks are a lttle more expensive. Some staff could be more friendly but others are really nice. Serves really good lcal beer such as gower gold and gower power

Ok, I haven't steak and ale pies in all the restaurants in Wales, but during our two week trip, this was clearly the best that I had. Flaky crust top, no fat on the beef, delicious gravy. I thought it was amazing. It's a great place for lunch when walking the coast trail.

Wonderful dining experience. We didn't stay at the hotel, but will do so in the future.This little gem is perfect for stopping in after a lovely hike overlooking Worm's Head Island and nearby beach.Food was delicious and staff was very friendly and accommodating. Place features breathtaking views from seating areas inside and out. Free WiFi and free parking nearby for English Heritage members.Definitely visiting again.

We ate here for most of the nights of our week's stay, including our wedding anniversary. The staff were always really lovely and accommodating. The restaurant was sometimes quiet, sometimes busy. The food was excellent, with plenty of choice. And the wine was reasonably priced. Enjoyed the whole experience.

We came for a sunday lunch. Food was terrible. The yorkshire pudding was dry and bland, and the meat was very undercooked. The vegetables were cold and there was a very small portion for the three of us. There was barely any gravy and we had to ask for another serving. The decoration wasn't too interesting. The view was good, though. Makes it a 2 star. Don't come here, only come if you want the view. If you are here for a good meal, don't come here.

Scampi and chips were fine. 2 x fish cakes were gorgeous, but the chips with them were awful. They were bitty and hard and more like 'batter bits'; they looked like the dregs that fall through the basket in the fryer. The staff were quite unfriendly and the woman who brought the food to the table didn't even speak! Doubtful we will visit again. Shame.

Service was friendly, but on the slow side. Probably need more staff during summer holidays. I had the lamb shank which was average and a bit fatty, veg was good but overcooked, gravy was probably the best part. But, we didn't go for the food we went for the view which was outstanding - that is what you're paying for anyway!

After a long walk to see the sunflowers near Worm's Head it was time for dinner. Quite busy in the bar but found a table for two right next to a window overlooking the world famous Rhossili Beach. Lovely beer and excellent food. Service good but its the views and the sunsets you come here for.

Not safe for people with food allergies. None of the staff members had any understanding what gluten was. I had to explain I couldn’t eat bread, flour, wheat etc and they then brought me a salad with couscous. I asked them for a fresh salad but I don’t think they understood how serious an issue this is for me. I have been unwell since. The service was very substandard in other respects. It felt like it was all of their first days at work. I think this cafe would benefit from decent management and training staff. It’s gone really downhill since I remember it from years ago. The cutlery was all dirty, as were the glasses. None of the tables were clean. Really disappointed

Disappointing meal. Drink came in a chipped glass, my panini arrived before my partner's with the caveat "sorry I've burnt yours, I haven't made one before" Panini arrived ages later accompanied by the saltiest crisps we have ever eaten. Can't see us going back.

Terribly slow service unless of course your a friend of the blonde lady with glasses serving at 10.30 am 19/1/24 and you want to chat about things . I have to be honest , I didn't like the way she served a young guy in front of the blonde lady in front of me . When he asked for a pasty she seemed to find the way he asked to be amusing and smirked at the blonde . When he left she started to serve this lady but stopped put her elbows on the counter, cupped her face in her hands and started to have a full blown conversation. Then it appears as your a friend you get free extras oh and don't forget a blank collectors card that she'll fill up for you while you wait . I turned around to the guy behind me who looking at me raised his eyes and I said loud enough to be heard . '' Maybe we should have a conversation about how our day is going and pass the time while we wait '' . Eventually it was my turn to be served with a spitted '' Yes '' ? Really not a pleasant experience in my opinion and I'm sorry I stopped at this branch .
