Gwernyfed Restaurants

My husband Gordon and I booked a table for 7 of us with our family and our friend , to celebrate Gordon’ s retirement, and also our kids and partners new jobs . This was our second time at the restaurant, and every time we have had fantastic food and service. Most of our table chose the Festive sharing menu which was good value for 3 course meal , and they all said our stunning the food was. Our Australian friend Sharon and I chose the Clementine and duck salad as a starter , then miso cod , teriyaki Salmon , chilli noodles , spiced greens as a side. The salad was huge , really one would have been enough for us to share !. The miso cod was exceptional and the salmon lovely. My husband, Our kids and their partners said the same about their food, just stunning flavours. Service for drinks and food was efficient and well organised and the lady that looked after us was lovely. We will definitely be back .

It was my first time at the restaurant and it was overall a great experience! The staff were welcoming and the atmosphere was warming and festive. They had loads of delicious meals to choose from especially the Christmas dinner option. My three friends had the Christmas Turkey Dinner but I chose to have the Pork Belly with mash potatoes and veg. My dish was beautifully presented and the taste of the food was amazing, it was a shame there wasn’t any sauce on the dish and the meal was a bit more in price compared to my friends Christmas dinner but their portion sizes were much larger than mine. When it came to desserts, because my main dish was on the smaller side I was still wanting a dessert but when I was given the dessert menu they were all dishes that weren’t to me or my friends liking. They were serving desserts like “lemon tiramisu, cinnamon swirl cheesecake, Salted Caramel Profiteroles and Eton mess Sundae etc. Unfortunately they had nothing like chocolate cake or other classical desserts so we all had to skip the dessert. The restaurant was clearly very popular by the crowd inside, I was a bit squashed between two other tables and had to ask other guests to get up so I could visit the restroom which was giving me airline vibes. Finding the restroom was a bit difficult because of no signs to show you where to go, I had to ask for help off a guest due to staff being off their feet. I would definitely revisit but I wish they had a better dessert menu.

The quality of the food here is simply outstanding. So is the service. Only issue preventing me giving 5 stars was that the heating wasn't working and it was a little chilly! That said, we we informed of the heating problem on arrival and an attempt had been made to telephone us about it beforehand. And it didn't detract from the otherwise superb dining experience. We are very fortunate to have such an excellent gastronomical offering in our local area. We have dined there before and certainly will again.

Simply fabulous warm welcome delicious food in a cosy pub setting, just book it you won’t be disappointed.

Food was good service with a smile great little pub with good lager and cider.
