The place to go for lovely ice-cream

Just popped in for a pint whilst waiting for a bus change at bus stop across the road. Excellent pint of Welsh Real Ale - Butty Bach. Thank you.

We are here with friends and it was very rushed no salad served with the onion bhajis Onion bhaji was very hard and crispy was over cooked The curry’s was lovely Would not revisit was not a nice experience

Lovely food & atmosphere in The Boathouse. I was served by Gintare and couldn’t have been happier with the service, professionalism & the food. Looking forward to coming back. Thanks guys!

Absolutely amazing, food was beautiful. The lady that served us , Karen behind the bar us was so lovely and helpful, my elderly mother has Alzheimer’s, and Karen , helped in every way and made the whole experience perfect. I would highly recommend the Royal Oak to all my friends and family. Thank you so much 😊

Nice place 👌 met the new publican & had a chat & he has inspirations for the pub. Good luck to him

Drove past this place so many times over the years on the way to Porthcawl.. To celebrate a birthday we went here for a Sunday dinner wow the food was amazing great value and staff was so nice great will be going again

Sad day today as this establishment closes for good. Thanks to Bas...Pauline....Mark and their staff for the service throughout the decades. Large breakast and coffee with toast £8.50.

Visited today for a coffee and decided to have a pancake stack. Plenty of choices of toppings and flavours. So I decided to have the biscoff option. 3 large warm pancakes smothered in biscoff sauce with 2 huge scoops of ice cream- 1 vanilla and 1 biscoff, all sprinkled with biscoff biscuits and some squirts cream! Delicious and a generous portion! Cappuccino was perfect too! Customer service was excellent, the staff are friendly and provide a quick service, would definitely recommend 😁

Having visited H&C for many years I’m sorry to say I didn’t purchase anything on this visit due to price increases. The shop is lovely, the staff are excellent but I didn’t feel I could justify the cost. I’ve given a 5 star for the other reasons but not for value for money aspect.

Although the service and the coffee was good, the actual place is very unclean rundown good job I had my hand sanitiser & wipes With me which I felt I needed to clean the chair on the tables before I sat down very overpriced £10 for two coffees will not be coming here again

Popped in here for a treat for my daughter’s birthday it was expensive, but the desserts are very nice. Waffles and ice cream highly recommended. the coffee was a bit bland but the lovely staff member changed it for me.

We attended a 60th birthday party in the waterfront early evening on 0ctober 8th 2024, and what a brilliant event. They had low partitioned off one side of the bar restaurant area and this worked to provide a private area which also benefitted from the lovely atmosphere in the rest of this popular friendly pub. The space was ideal for the 40ish there with a pull down screen showing photos of the party girl, easy access to toilets, a bar and an outside area with sea views. The buffet was excellent, lovely meats hot boiled potatoes, warm tasty bread rolls, especially good coleslaw, king prawns, other sides, cakes and cheeses. The staff were attentive efficient and friendly. Like I said brilliant, and a good time had by all.

Pre booked table for lunch. Friendly greeting from lovey waitress. All COVID secure. Lovely table with sea view. Prices for lunch very reasonable. All six meals excellent, food piping hot. Waitress very efficient and had great sense of humour. Cakes very nice too. Will be going back.
