Customer Review Summary
Sunday lunch is what reviewers raise most, with one calling it the best roast they can recall and another describing the Sunday lunch as brilliant enough to return for the regular menu. Real ales and a good choice of beer, wine and spirits come close behind, and diners also describe the food as good, simple and tasty. The pub is repeatedly called friendly and relaxed, with a cosy fire in the bar and a warm feel in winter, plus a seated area outside and occasional live music. Dog owners single it out, noting it is dog friendly and that staff made a fuss of visiting dogs with water bowls and treats ready, which suits walkers stopping off along the Taff Trail. One reviewer held a party for family and friends and says the team was accommodating and let them customise the food, and another found it good for a quiet drink or a big group. No reviewer raises a complaint. The most vivid recurring detail is the water bowls and treats waiting for dogs.
