The best restaurants serving British food in South Wales

Arrived at 11.55 am knowing lunch would start at 12.00, noon. The waitresses (very attentive) seated us by the servery and settled us with our drinks. We were advised they would bring the menus over when the last of the breakfast were served. All good at this point. Unfortunately at 12 .03 the cook/chef in the kitchen at the servery was heard asking the waitress if anyone was in for lunch? She said yes and his tone and response were a shock to hear. It was too much trouble for him to cope with at the time. The waitress then came over with the menu which we declined and advised we were leaving. Both waitresses apologised but it was not down to them, they were very professional and could not fault them. Such a shame, we have been going there for breakfasts and lunches, even took friends but this has definitely soiled our opinion of this establishment. Would not recommend as too much for the cook/chef to contend with.

Absolutely amazing fish and chips. Really crispy batter perfectly cooked and piping hot. The chips are to die for. You won't be disappointed and its such amazing value.

What a find ... staying at a nearby hotel and came here for dinner ... we had the Welsh Tapas and it was amazing... excellent food great service and would highly recommend

Went here for Sunday lunch, first time of visiting and was very impressed. The service was quick and polite and the food was amazing! Would recommend it and will visit again.

Just had a delightful afternoon with friends at Trios, Pontnewydd, for afternoon tea. The welcome was warm, the service was first class. We were reminded of having tea with our grandmothers because there was bone china and starched tablecloths. The finger sandwiches were very tasty, the warm scones melted in our mouths and the cakes were delicious. We drank copious cups of tea and coffee and didn’t stop talking and laughing. We will have to return to there for a spot of spoiling !

Tried the Greek week menu, perfectly cooked calamari and a beautiful piece of Hake in tomatoe, black olive and caper sauce, divine.

First time trying here as it was around the corner from our house but it was disappointing - charged us extra £1 because they couldn’t enter the order correctly on the till and when I mentioned about being pregnant and would be good to have a well done egg, they said they would make me one…which never came! Not a place we’ll be going back to.

Went for the Chinese buffet on Friday 2nd Feb, what a treat! Even with a short staffed team the service was wonderful, you can see how the students are building their confidence and skills in both the kitchen and front of house. Food was tasty, excellent value at £7.50 for 2 courses and overall had a really lovely lunch. Will be back 😄

Lovely afternoon of drinks and great food. Excellent service (and photography skills!) from Alex Fisher - thank you for looking after us and making my friends birthday special :)

Lush Sunday roast . 8 of us visited for my son’s birthday. The service is fab , very quick. The staff are lovely so friendly. The food itself is plentiful!! Lots of veg , meat and thick gravy .

What a lovely pub!! We had a table of 9 with dogs and they couldn’t have been more accommodating! Beautiful Sunday roast, a good selection of starters and traditional hot puddings. We had a selection of beef, pork, chicken and lamb and all meat was cooked beautifully and plenty of veg with a really tasty proper gravy!! Thank you so much for a lovely afternoon! The land lords were really lovely people xx

Absolutely the best breakfast in Tredegar.

4 of us visited on a Saturday evening. I had chicken burger with homemade chips with a choice of a side order i chose onion rings. My wife had scampi, the other 2 had a vegan meal and a child's sausage chips and beans. All meals were very good, and reasonably priced. Cannot comment on price of drink as I didn't pay. Nice atmosphere and nice friendly staff. Will definitely visit again when I'm this way again.

Lovely, clean cafe with welcoming staff. Dog also made to feel welcome. Food was fab - pancake stacks were delicious. Highly recommend

Visited again 4/8/24. Our Calamari and home made soup starters were really good. The carvery meat and all vegetables were cooked beautifully and plenty of choice. Although it was very busy the service was efficient with no wait and also no feeling of being rushed. The young man who looked after us was friendly and professional - as were all the staff there. Excellent value for money. If you've not been then try it. You won't be disappointed.
