The best restaurants serving British food in Sandfields East Neath Port Talbot South Wales

Following a recommendation that this café serves the best toast in South Wales, my wife and I called for a first time visit on Feb 20th. The secret of successful toast: thick hand cut FRESH white bread served hot with plenty of salty butter by extremely friendly staff. Batista's has it all. Friendly gathering of locals who the staff seemed to know most as regulars. Coffee not bad either. Hope the landlord fixes the leak soon?

Very disappointed, you'd expect the windows to be pristine in a restaurant but they were disgusting all the time we were there. Menu does not change! Anyone staying more than a couple of days will go elsewhere. Very expensive food, waited an hour for a steak that was tiny and tough for £ 26 . No vegetables served with it just a sauce and chips. Fish and chips £14.95 - they were okay but not worth the price, there's a great chippy around the corner! Menu was boring and expensive. Coach passengers received a far better menu than we did, a roast dinner. I feel every restaurant should offer a nice roast dinner on the menu. Breakfast was okay, BUT the old fashioned toaster was extremely slow, it took 3-4 minutes to very lightly toast one side of the bread, it needed to be put through a second time however someone else has put bread in so we couldn't make a decent slice of toast on the mornings we were there. Why not invest in a couple of 4 slice toasters to make it easier for everyone? Teas and coffees were outside the dining room so you had to go and get your own, it would be nice if staff brought refills around. The coffee seemed watered down to me, very poor. I could not in all honesty recommend this restaurant. Long wait for food, coaches got priority.
