The best restaurants serving British food in Sirhowy Blaenau Gwent South Wales

Looked nice and clean though the hygiene rating on door was worrying. There was no one in there at all at lunch time, so after lady on the bar checked with the chef we could have food, we were seated in the upper area, overlooking the pool table that had been laid out with food for a funeral later. The pub has lots of tvs etc so its maybe suited to evening / weekend time sports fans. The outside area looked great for children during the summer months and is probably popular. The food... fish....well a very small fillet which was coated in some sort of soggy batter, presented broken in half; chip portion very poor and even the peas were overcooked, certainly not worth the price. This fish was like the cheapest basa fillet sold in a packet at Iceland or similar. Veg balti was an odd one! More potato than veg ( 1, yes 1 pea, couple bits carrot and no onion at all) a very small portion and micro rice; curry was more like tinned soup with half a teaspoon of mild curry powder. The tea cup was only 2/3 full and came with uht milk, which is not good in a pub. Beer was ok. I think for the price they need to up their quality and portions, or just not do lunch at all. Im sure its a great place to drink with the locals, but its not a place to eat. Did see that on match days you get a burger and a pint for the price we paid for a meagre lunch without drinks🤷‍♂️

Soooo delicious, and more than on point for prices and customer service *****

Google and signs on the outside said "Open 7 days a week" but it was closed mid afternoon on a Sunday. Wouldn't have set out walking if we'd known it would be closed

We stopped here for a cooked lunch and were very glad we did! It might not look stunning from the street view but please don’t be fooled - best homemade pie ever! Lovely staff, very friendly. Dog friendly pub (they even gave our woofer some dog biscuits). All the food that passed by our table looked amazing. Would thoroughly recommend calling by for something to eat, you won’t be disappointed. I’d recommend the chicken, asparagus and wild mushroom pie.
