The best restaurants in St. Athan The Vale of Glamorgan South East

Consistently bad, Used to come here a few years back, food was stunning and top notch, this past few visits have been seriously questionable, the garden doors were open which was nice untill the smell of smoke bellowed in as about 10 people chain smoking next the the restaurant with the doors open, which is a massive turn off when your eating but the cigarette smoke actually masked the taste of the awful Frozen food I was served. The food is the worse part ! Frozen produce, undercooked mess of a night out meal, dirty table/cutlery and even the “chip buckets” where full of mould and rust , didn’t eat any of my food apart from one bite (tasted undercooked and like dog food) slimey veg - sent it back with it all on the plate, the owner didn't take it off the bill or offer a discount, we had few bottles of wine starters and sides n all sorts - was all Terrible, the bread starter was just ciabatta cut up ( not rustic bread like advertised) abysmal if you ask me, they asked me for advice on how to do better next time which was strange while taking a seat at my dinner table - definitely won’t be coming here again ! This place has gone down hill big time ! Such a shame and I was embarrassed to have taken my party there. Never again.

Brilliant food for a family birthday party, food was lovely and massive portions, everyone enjoyed. Will definitely be back.

the best Chinese food around at a decent price. always enjoy our takeaway from here, and the friendly service from staff..

You would think the minimum requirement for running a cafe was the ability to speak to people politely. The couple were extremely rude. They completely ignored us waiting at their serving window. The woman spent 5 mins studiously stirring what looked like 2 cups of instant coffee. It's a shame as their attitude put a real downer on a beautiful place. This is repeated again and again in these reviews, and it's true. These people obviously need to retire, get a job they like, or get some serious customer service training. I would avoid if you want to enjoy your walk. Park somewhere else, walk there, and take a flask. For info..car park is £5.
