Quick info
About Cherry Laurel
Cherry Laurel is a pub on Kingsway near Bridgend, open daily on a walk-in basis. The menu runs through familiar pub grub, with a kids menu offered alongside the adult choices. Children's meals are often brought to the table first when larger parties book together, and table service carries food and drinks out to every table rather than a counter pickup. Groups can also reserve ahead of time, including online, for occasions such as birthday gatherings. Dogs are welcome inside, and the walls carry dog-themed pictures throughout the room.

“Booked online for a group of 8, and it’s so easy and quick. When we arrived we were shown to our table. All the staff were very pleasant. There were a few items not available but that did not detract from our experience, All of us enjoyed our food and the service and the price was surprisingly reasonable considering we eat out in at our home in Surrey where we would have paid considerably more.”

- Peter Sherry
“Lovely evening spent here with friends, even thought they had just taken an order for 22 (birthday group) they advised maybe a delay as it was also so hot in the kitchen, the food was great and wait wasn’t excessive. We will definitely be returning!”
- Marianne Paterson
“Great meal tonight. Chef Morgan absolutely fantastic and can't do enough. Insisted on toasting a bun for us when we hadnt realised it wasnt included with our meal. That was our fault but he insisted on providing one anyway! Danny who was waiting was quick polite and very attentive. El at the bar was very efficient, friendly and helpful too. What a team! Can't wait to come back.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise friendly, quick service, with servers and bar staff described as attentive and welcoming to large groups and families. Pub grub arrives quickly and is called lovely and tasty, and one family said their children found the kids menu meals banging. Children also get a park, darts and pool while adults sit and chat. Staff held a birthday cake behind the bar until requested, and diners mention a choice of wines, beers and lagers, a refurbished cosy country pub feel, and dogs being welcome. The caveats are a reduced menu, which one reviewer called a shame, a few items unavailable for a group of 8, and a warned delay for a party of 22 because the kitchen was hot, though the wait was not excessive. One returning visitor said it had gone downhill before the refurb. One chef toasted a bun for a table anyway when it turned out not to be included.
