  “Stunning meal tonight for my birthday. Friendly servers who were attentive, and the owner regularly asked how our meal was going which was really nice. Food was incredible, so flavourful! The couscous was out of this world, I can see why it’s noted on the menu as Michèle’s favourite. If you’re looking for great, hearty, French cuisine, that’s clearly made with love, it’s a place you must visit! Thank you very much for a splendid meal ❤️”

  “Ate the best fillet of beef steak I have ever had here last night, triple cooked chips & the scallops were amazing- the whole menu is delicious- consistently fantastic really high quality dining. So wasn’t surprised when I heard the chef was previous Michelin star holder. I think people think its really fancy & you have to get all dressed up to the nines- not at all, smart but casual perfectly fine. Its our favourite go to if we want something special, if family come for a visit or birthday treat or just fancy a really really nice meal. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, the Service is always perfect, attentive and discreet - great choice on the menu ( good vegetarian options) . Desserts are amazing! If you live in Swansea & have never tried - you got to go - missing out on an absolute gem & if you are in the area on hols & looking for somewhere I can confidently say this place serves delicious food! Love it - its our go to place for over a decade never ever had any issues - best food & great service every visit- well deserved 5 stars across the board from us”

  “This is the best restaurant in Swansea. Authentic and delicious French food at it's best -- not fussy, not pretentious, but down-to-earth, accessible, rich, and made with love. I had the couscous royale, which I recommend heartily. It made me think of the first time I had couscous twenty years ago during a semester abroad in France. The couscous royale at Pant y Gwydr is the first dish that's ever matched it. Nearly brought tears to my eyes.”

  “Absolutely gorgeous meal with friends for my birthday. Never fails to please the taste buds. Service was amazing and nothing was rushed. Scallops were to die for. Sea bass cooked to perfection with the best chips in the world. Thank you so much.”

  “After being let down by Paris and the service in the restaurants out there I reached out to Michele to give my wife the French cuisine she was craving and wow did the Pant-y-Gwydr deliver. Fitted us in at short notice after an email off the runway and the meal and service were truly amazing. Thank you so much and merry Christmas x”

  “Phenomenal. Best desserts in Swansea. Best French onion soup in Wales. For some reason I haven't made it to the Pant y Gwydr before. It is absolutely one one of the best restaurants in Swansea. I regret not coming here before. Comfortably in the top five with Slice, the Beach House and Hanson at the a Chelsea. Incredible, authentic french cuisine in a light an airy restaurant with a chatty atmosphere. The staff were friendly, courteous and professional. All the food is cooked from fresh in house and it really shows in the quality of the food. The food was very reasonably priced as well. The French onion soup, mussels, duck and "Zelensky" are all easy recommendations but make sure you save room for desert. Le Chocolat is absolutely incredible, from every perspective! I'm not sure why else to say but don't procrastinate and check out the Pant y Gwydr! I will absolutely be making a return visit! --- 2025 edit Still outstanding. Still a must visit.”

  “Outstanding… Hearty, authentic French food full of flavour in a family run restaurant. Highly recommend the crème brûlée and ice creams, all home made. Also the dauphinois potatoes. Lots of great vegan and vegetarian options on the menu. Staff were really friendly. Don't miss this place if you're visiting Swansea”

  “This was our second visit, two years after our first meal at Pant-Y-Gwydr. We were excited to return and despite our high expectations we were not at all disappointed. The meal was superb, with exquisitely balanced flavours and attention to detail. The menu is clearly well practiced with limited variation, but it doesn’t matter as there is plenty to choose from. We had two children in our party (aged 9 and 13) and whilst there isn’t a children’s menu we were able to use a couple of options modified to accommodate them. Children with unsophisticated palates might not be as well catered for. The interior appears to have been redecorated since we last visited and it felt more homely and comfortable than our first visit. The location of the restaurant is out of keeping with the quality of the food and service, but do not let that put you off from visiting.”

  “Brilliant meal and excellent service. Couldn't fault it at all! The dishes were authentic and cooked to perfection, the menu choices and wine list were excellent and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely recommend for a special occasion or a treat. We will be returning.”
