The best restaurants in The Vale of Glamorgan South East

I turned up to an empty cafe with a load of kids for dessert after a nice meal elsewhere. It was a surreal experience. Emotionless service and staff that seemed to be moving in slow motion. It was a large order but it was a ridiculous amount of time to get it sorted. Thought maybe I’d entered the twilight zone cafe! To be fair the cakes weren’t bad but not good enough to outweigh the service!

Excellent pizzas - throughly enjoyed

The wait was quite long as it was a warm and busy day, but the fish and chips were fresh and tasty.

Came in with my young son and ordered food and two drinks. When I paid the bill, I got the receipt and left. I checked the bill later on and the waiter had added on an almost £4 coffee for himself WITHOUT ASKING! He was a young guy. Could never recommend this place! Ever!

If you are looking to go to Morrisons supermarket in Barry do not expect to be able to buy a coffee, tea etc as all the machines have broken down and have been like that for over two months!!

Stopped by for a takeaway ice cream. Really good choice of flavours and delicious, too. Slightly pricier than several nearby outlets but the quantity and quality made up for that. Despite previous comments, the staff were friendly and polite and we were served quickly. Would certainly use them again.

Great food, but when we order from Just Eat you can select a time for the food to be ordered, they never take any notice of that and just send it as soon as they receive the order, which is a problem because you order it for a certain time because that’s when you want it, for example for after you put the baby to bed. When it comes early you can’t eat it and have to leave it go cold until you can

A disappointing experience. Place was not overly busy but stood for 10 mins at counter before someone actually spoke to me. Ordered bacon and Brie panini which took around 30 mins! We asked where food was and told it was being plated up which took another 10 minutes! When arrived, it tasted fine but a bit overpriced for the lack of effort put into it. Coffee had well been finished by the time it arrived. The staff were non communicative and lacked total enthusiasm which reflected in the whole atmosphere of the cafe. Will still use the park but definitely not the cafe!

Best Chinese food anywhere, period ! Super friendly staff and very quick delivery times. The food is good quality, especially the meat. I hate fake food and I've never experienced that here and it's why it's our favourite spot and we keep coming back. If it ain't broke don't fix it ! Bosh

Place doesn't exist anymore!! Please remove from the list

Usually we are more than happy to stop here have a coffee and sandwiches, or a sausage roll, a bake or whatever. Usually the service is very good! However, on the last visit, they charged us something like £2 to sit in - that was three sausage rolls and three coffees with a £2 extra charge on top total charge somewhere in the region of £10.20. £8.10 for the meal deals and £2.10 for the sit. This has stopped us in our tracks as virtually visiting every 2nd day. They know us, yet on this occasion the server would not have it. “It is what’s come up on the computer.” Trying to clear the queue meant a lack Of service. To add to the experience. The floor was dirty. Table dirty. A no go!!!! Beware.

This place USED TO BE quite good. I don't know what's happened to it! I had korma & my husband a "Chef's Special" lamb dish. Both were exceedinly lacking in taste. In fact I've never had such a tasteless Korma in all my life. Was the sauce out of a jar? In fact I've had korma sauce out of a jar that tasted better than this! The chicken had not been sealed. It tasted of nothing. We had half & half rice & chips. The chips were unpleasant to say the least. Absolutely no taste! We asked for vinegar to go with our chips & were given a shaker that had about a 1/4 inch of vinegar in it. Not enough for the chips served. Poppadums were OK & there was a good supply of the usual accompaniments to go with them & all the food portions were good sized. My glass of red wine was fine but they dont serve non-alcoholic beers so my husband (doing the driving) just had water. And (finally) the service was intrusive. Waiters kept coming over to clear our table when we weren't ready to finish eating. We didn't bother with dessert or coffee. We were done & dusted in less than an hour & couldn't wait to get out.

Service was OK, but I think the team leader was overworked and seemed to be under pressure. The order wasn't 100 % correct

Chicken (other than the strips) was tasteless, oily, and tasted old. No communication at all, chips were cooked but tasted boiled rather than fried yet somehow were still oily 😭😭 delivery driver was sound though and they were on time as well so do with that what you will

Rude staff, more training in customer care is required. Ordered 2 teas and cake, server took the money ,put tray on side, got cakes, I was chatting to a fellow passenger ... then I picked up tray, took to table to find teapots empty. Went back to counter,where i explained i was too eager,the waitress queried " they wernt to go then?" To which I said no and she then proceeded to pour the premade tea from the papercups to the teapots to which me and another customer said " please don't do that as they will have a tang to it" . The waitress " Goldie",rudely responded " well you took the tray away"! and started slamming my tea about! So rude! Training opportunity here Costa..... the 5 customers around me were all in disbelief at her behaviour! Stomping around like a child.
