The 2-for-1 cocktail deal before 7pm is solid. Grabbed a couple after work in the beer garden. Good spot to decompress for an hour. Drinks were decent, service was prompt.

The new spot has indoor seating now, which is a plus on a breezy day like today. My fish and chips were just as good as I remember from the old place&mdash;crispy batter and proper chips. A solid choice for a classic meal here.

The lunch menu is a solid deal. The staff were really helpful in picking a wine that went with my pasta.

Love popping in here for a bite. The staff are genuinely lovely, which always makes it a nice visit. Had the grilled sea bass last time&mdash;cooked just right, skin was super crispy.

The roast beef was a bit tough, and the veg was hard to cut through. A shame, as the service from the staff was really spot-on and friendly.

Xxxxx We visit the Toby Carvery at Bridgend regularly and find it consistent in both quality of food and service which we would rate as very good.  We would have no hesitation in recommending this particular restaurant to anyone for both quality of food and service.

Decent food and service, but the portions are a bit small for the price.

The gammon was a generous portion, cooked just right. My mac and cheese had this lovely, crispy top layer that made it. A solid, comforting meal in a really warm space.

The chips are huge, but I really appreciate how fresh the ingredients feel. You can taste the quality in the simple dishes. The staff were lovely, even on a packed evening.

This place is a real find. The sit-down menu is completely different from the takeaway one, which was a nice surprise. I had a lovely, quiet lunch trying some of their specialty dishes. Everything tasted very fresh.

They managed our large group booking flawlessly. The pre-order communication was clear and the service never felt rushed, even when busy.

The fish and chips were spot on. The batter was light and crisp, the chips were proper thick-cut and fluffy inside. The mushy peas had a good minty kick. That&#39;s what I come for.

The staff were really attentive and the vibe was spot on. Had the lamb chops, which were cooked just right. Their wine list had some interesting local options that paired nicely. Parking was easy, which is always a plus.

Been coming here for years, mainly for the Sunday roast. The portion is huge - you get a proper plateful of everything. It&#39;s the kind of meal that keeps you going all day. Decent value for what you pay.

Huge portions, the mixed meat special was more than enough for two!

Friendly staff and good coffee. The flapjack they serve at the table is a nice touch.

Stopped in for a late lunch while in the area. The menu had a good range, plenty of veggie and vegan choices. Went for the vegan burger, it was solid. Service was efficient, got the bill quickly. Convenient spot.

Booked a late Sunday lunch. The roast was massive! Tender beef, crispy potatoes, and a whole jug of gravy. The Aperol spritz was a nice touch too. Lauren and the team were lovely.

Prices were decent for what you get. Had the fish and chips, portion was generous, could easily share. Not the cheapest but felt like a fair deal for the quality.

The local pale ale was the standout. Crisp, hoppy, with a nice citrus finish. The food was solid, but honestly, that beer is the reason I&#39;d think about coming back. They were packed but still got it to the table quick.

The white cocoa mocha was just right, not too sweet. Really enjoyed the yoghurt &amp; blackberry flapjack, you could tell the ingredients were fresh. A nice, simple change from the usual chains.

The refurb looks great, the inside is really tasteful now. We sat outside and it was lovely, perfect for a sunny afternoon. Food was decent, nothing mind-blowing but solid. A bit pricey for what it is though.

The beer list is solid. Had a couple of their local ales with the steak pie. The malty one cut through the gravy really well. That&#39;s the pairing I&#39;d go for again.

The steak and ale pie was very good, with properly tender slow-cooked beef. The chips were nice and crispy. It&#39;s a solid choice for a decent pub meal.

Lovely spot for a homemade lunch. The cakes looked amazing, but I went for a veggie quiche. Honestly, for the portion size, I found it a bit pricey. It was tasty, just wish there was a bit more on the plate for the cost.

Popped in for a quick bite after getting off the train. The location is spot on, right in the middle of everything. Easy to find and a good starting point for a wander around town.

Booked a table but had to wait a bit when we got there. The downstairs seating area could do with a refresh, it&#39;s not as nice as upstairs.

Amy was so on it with my nut allergy, double-checked everything with the kitchen. Really put my mind at ease. The Sunday roast was huge and tasty, no complaints there!

A real gem for vegetarians. The paneer tikka masala was spot on, and they had a surprisingly good selection of wines by the glass. The staff was happy to suggest a pairing.

I had a lovely afternoon tea experience here with my family. The cakes and sandwiches were not only delicious but also elegantly presented, making for a delightful dining experience in a comfortable setting.
