The best restaurants in West Wales

Came here last week during half term . The restaurant was near lydstep beach where we staying and thought we would book a meal here. The restaurant was only half full when we arrived at 7pm and we was met by a very pleasant young lady. Unfortunately from sitting down to being offered a drink this took 20. Minutes . The young lady did apologise saying it was only herself and a colleague serving on that particular evening.another 15 minutes later I had to stop the waitress to ask if we could order. The food took 45 minutes and it came lukewarm. To be honest the whole evening was awkward and poor . Real shame because if it was good it would be a goldmine.

Excellent food pleasant staff place tidy and clean good value for money what more could you ask for definitely would return.

Just back from a lovely Sunday Lunch at The Pemberton Arms, there was even a menu for the dog, although as he has no money of his own he was out of luck! Louisa was very polite and helpful, will definitely call again.

Lovely Sunday dinner. Staff were lovely and so was the restaurant. Will definitely come back

Exceptionally helpful staff who provided exemplary service after (our) mix-up with food. Delicious vegan, veggie breakfasts, along with tasty and delicious sausage and egg baps. Generous portions, cooked to order and very prompt service. Great lunch portions too. Also extremely hospitable to our neurodivergent child in terms of being able to access wi-fi and providing a calm, welcoming space. Great tunes too, Blur, Iggy Pop, Michael Kiwanuka and Paris Paloma! Top-tier eaterie.

Reserved a table for a group of 19 comprising mainly couples in The Marigold restaurant in the Heywood Spa Hotel. Given the numbers I provided pre-orders in advance of the evening. Greeted warmly by the staff and shown to our table. Lovely Asian themed decor and aambiance in the restaurant. Our food was served after we were settled & were ready and was served efficiently. Without exception, all the group were complimentary of the venue & the food which provided a choice of Pan Asian & British and of the service provided. Have no hesitation in recommending the venue and would certainly book again either as a couple or for a group.

Stayed here on recommendation of a client as I was doing a job in the area. A little over my budget but rooms were very nice and spotless clean nice toiletries in bathroom plenty tea coffee etc. I ate at the pub the food was lovely home cooked. I had the Chinese curry . Very reasonable prices .the staff were lovely nothing too much trouble.

Always come when we get to Wales and when we are leaving, breakfast is super filling and affordable around £40 for 5 people

Freshness from their butchery and fishermen supplies to their shop/restaurant and cooked on their own premises! What more can you ask for? Absolutely unique because of the owners knowledge of his product and cooking direct accordingly! Wish there were more butchers/fishmongers cooking their products onsight in this country. When we left there was the brightest rainbow and I'm sure one end was into the Rib & Oyster premises (rightly so).

Went for our anniversary meal ,warm welcome, great service friendly staff great food ,definitely will recommend to family and friends.

Under new ownership, a week only, when we ate there. Ordered gammon, egg and CHIPS but instead of chips was served with French fries!!! Not even asked if these were suitable and no contact from server after the dish was served. No receipt available from credit card machine….all in all a very disappointing experience.

Visited numerous times over the last 10+ years during the summer and winter. The Lawrenny Arms offers great food, selection of drinks, atmosphere, service and prices, even better during good weather to enjoy your time outside with great views of the Cleddau estuary.

What a find! We had a super lunch. The staff were very friendly and the service excellent. The food was mostly homemade and freshly prepared. The ploughman’s lunch and afternoon tea were amazing. Will definitely return.

Another brilliant meal and experience with friends courtesy of Nik the Greek, his lovely wife and excellent staff!!! From the time you walk through the door you are met with a lovely friendly welcome, everyone is treated as an individual even when they are very busy and the choice of drinks and quality of every dish from starter to dessert is excellent. I would recommend for all ages, even young children are welcomed and catered for and the premises are spotlessly clean. We have also dropped in just for mere and drinks on previous occasions as well as in the evening and our experience has been just as good. Looking forward to our next visit, very soon

GREAT vegan meal. Great service, lovely atmosphere. A real shame the owner came in and told off certain staff about a couple of bad reviews. I heard every single word! Staff great, the owner needs to understand that should be done away from customer earshot!
