The best restaurants serving British food in South Wales

My wife and I had a wonderful Sunday lunch here. Tasty food and plenty of it, the beef was served rare as asked, and it just fell apart. My wife had the pork, which was as tasty and plentiful. 2 bottles of wine and 4 hours later ha what a wonderfully lazy Sunday afternoon.

Lovely little place to either sit and have some food or grab something and sit by the front. Good pasties, coffee and sweet bakery treats too, all-around winner!

Great selection of gluten free food.

32 of us had coffee morning with Wendy and girls. The service was very good and Wendy rearranged her seating to accommodate us. We thoroughly enjoyed the morning, looking forward to our return visit in the future. Well done ladies.

Amazing food, loads of things to try.

Ordered a takeaway last night and had so much value for money! Had the burger box which was filled with chips, onion rings and chicken and the 2 burgers were giving on the side as they didn’t fit in the box because it had so much food in. £25 and could easily fill 2 adults and 2 kids. Piping hot and wrapped amazingly.

My family and I went for a birthday meal this evening. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. I absolutely could not fault the place! It's both clean and bright, would definitely recommend!

We have come here several times now and each time the food and staff have been brilliant. The pizzas are a good size and full of flavour. The cakes are wonderful.

Lovely country pub. Excellent food and nice atmosphere.

Second visit for an evening meal and it was fantastic. Service was really fast despite being very busy, big thumbs up to the kitchen staff!

Pre booked for a party of 11 people from 1pm to 2.30pm. Sent in pre order for food the day before so expecting to be served soon after arrival. By 1.40pm food still hadn’t arrived I asked a bar staff member how long we had to wait and she question if we had ordered, then followed by saying there was nothing on their system. When the 2nd bar staff member came over she also said nothing was in their system so I showed the email I had sent with the pre order on, to which I had also received a response confirming the order had been received. I questioned why nobody had come over to us to ask about our order to which the response was “staff do not come over you need to order at the bar.” Well how are we supposed to know that when we had pre ordered. Our order was taken and food was served quite promptly to be fair and all members of the party enjoyed. We were also given a free soft drink each however there should have been better communication as we had booked the table a month prior to the date.

A complete failure to deliver on even the most basic expectations of dining. It pains me to write this review, but the sheer inadequacy of our meal demands accountability. It is rare to encounter a restaurant that fails so comprehensively in delivering even the most basic expectations of quality and service. While the staff were courteous and attentive - the same cannot be said for anything else about The Priory. The evening began with the revelation that a significant portion of the menu was unavailable, a frustrating start that set the tone for what was to come. When the food finally arrived after a considerable wait, it was nothing short of unacceptable and our disappointment only multiplied. My trout fillet (£24) was served totally cold, submerged in an unpleasantly pungent tomato sauce that overpowered any semblance of freshness or skill in preparation. Worse still, the dish arrived without the sides described on the menu, leaving an incomplete, pitiful presentation. The alternative? Paying extra for accompaniments that should have been included from the start and wait another half an hour at best. My husband had no better luck with his lamb dish (£38) - served lukewarm with an unpleasantly chewy, gristly texture that suggested either poor quality meat or improper preparation. The dessert menu offered only some weird mystifying options like "chocolate soil" a concept so poorly explained that not even the staff could describe it with any confidence. At these prices, one expects competence, if not excellence. Instead, the experience was marked by terrible execution, poor value, and a total lack of regard for the clients dining experience. A restaurant charging these prices has no excuse for such terrible quality and poor culinary execution. A restaurant must do more than simply open its doors; it must deliver on its promises. This one DOES NOT!

I read the reviews and was expecting something quite special. It was a Saturday night, and sunny, so admittedly very busy. We were told it was 45 mins wait for food, it was a few mins off an hour when we got our food. When it arrived, it was ok but definitely not worthy of the extortionate prices that were being charged. See for yourself. We both felt a little disappointed, and much preferred our camp food we had prepared the night before. I appreciate that the sun had meant Everyman and his dog were out and about, but as the only spot nearby, I would imagine they should be used to this. Anyways, not terrible, but felt insanely overpriced.

Staff were great and food and drink were tasty enough. The only issue is that a large portion of the menu wasn't available
