Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Customers rave about the generous portion sizes, especially during the popular Sunday lunch, featuring highlights like minted lamb chops and hearty carvery options. The food always arrives hot and fresh, which reinforces the pub's reputation for quality. Many appreciate the engaging staff who contribute to a fun and welcoming atmosphere, making each visit feel personal. The variety of drink options, including a stellar beer and wine selection, also garners praise, as does the lively entertainment such as quiz nights and live music that keeps patrons returning week after week.
Most Disliked
While most experiences are positive, a few customers mention occasional busyness leading to longer wait times during peak hours. Some diners also express a desire for an even wider range of vegetarian options, particularly for main courses. Although many enjoy the lively atmosphere, it can get quite loud during events, which might not suit those looking for a quieter dining experience. Additionally, advanced reservations are a necessity during Sunday lunches, which some might find inconvenient if they prefer spontaneous outings.

We dropped in today for a bit of lunch. A very warm welcome. A great choice of beers. We had the traditional Welsh Sunday lunch. Great food and very generous portions. The beef was amazing. I would definitely recommend.

We popped in on our first night of a short break and were so pleased we ate there for the whole holiday, the food is fresh, flavoursome, portions are brilliant and the menu choices are good. I'm not sure who owns or runs the pub but please don't change a thing its brilliant. Can definitely recommend the New Cornish.
