This pub has been bought by the villagers. It’s is wonderful in so many ways. Cowbridge seems to be a black hole of decent food aside from the hare and hounds and maple and bean.
This felt like a proper community pub in the 90s. The staff were all amazing. The food was amazing. There wasn’t a 400% markup on rubbish wine. The service as great. The atmosphere was lovely. Great starters of crab and squid were followed by perfectly cooked steak. The doughnuts with custard cream and strawberries were lovely. No rip off frozen food or “small plates” that nobody likes here.
Go and support places like this. The rest of cowbridge eateries need to up their game.
Delicioso brunch, gran variedad de opciones en el menú, buen espacio y gran ubicación. El sol de invierno brotaba por las ventanas. El personal era muy amable y servicial.
Hemos pasado por delante del Colectivo muchas veces así que pensamos en intentarlo un domingo por la mañana. Siempre parece estar ocupado, lo que era una buena señal, pero salimos decepcionados. Tomamos café y, por curiosidad, un par de (creo) queso y pasteles daneses marmitas. ¡Mala jugada! No podía probar ni el queso ni la marmita. El café estaba bien, pero servido en vasos de papel que nos parece asqueroso. No es culpa del café pero los niños rebeldes no ayudaron a la experiencia. Mucha suerte a la gente que ha montado The Collective -es bueno ver alternativas a las grandes cadenas- pero no creo que volvamos.
Great spot for a quick bit to eat. The Husband and Wife owners are lovely and the food is super fresh, they are constantly coming up with new recipes and dishes!
My partner said ‘it is a trick restaurant’ - it wants you to think it’s better than it is!?
The very high price for the tasting menu and wine flight makes you think that you are in for something very special (trick 1)
The portion size is very small ( most notably the Pate) trick 2
Staffed by young inexperienced girls with no Matre de onhand to guide and control them
Service was slow (70% capacity)
Very expensive wine by the glass served pre poured and not a sight of the bottle (the wine should have been served at the table from the shown bottle?) trick 3
Not a special experience and not value for money trick 4
A mi pareja y a mí nos encanta venir aquí. La comida siempre es muy buena y disfrutar del pan y los chapuzones de cortesía para empezar. Siempre reciben un servicio amable y todos trabajan tan duro. Estoy deseando volver.

Looked nice, went in, no queue, two staff behind the counter going back and forth. No eye contact, no acknowledgement that I existed, I stood there for a minute and then left.
Why have I just been listening to the bell ring for over 20 minutes??????????????? Why?
Please tell me the reason in which I had to listen to over 100 rings?????
Newly moved to this area and a first visit to Carterton with my wife. A lively town and no doubting the proximity to RAF Brize Norton as very large four engined aircraft
were constantly flying overhead. Decided to try Burgers and Brews for lunch and it proved to be an excellent choice. An outside table in the sun and excellent, prompt and efficient service from Olivia. The steak burger, chips and salad deal was a wise choice. A mountainous bap crammed with delicious minced steak and layers of tasty extras. The chips were magnificent and a credit to the chef - crispy and full of flavour on the outside and soft in the middle. All this and a fresh, crunchy salad served in an attractive dish and you can tell we will be back again.
