Had a lovely Carvery with my friend and our boys, the food was so good we all cleared our plates and enjoyed puddings that we could barely fit but was worth the force!!

The staff are world class, have a great banter and can't do enough for you!
Clearly the new management has cleaned up the place! Keep up the great work!

On arrival we had a warm welcome at the front door. Tom (I think) showed us to our table and was friendly. I had the carvery, which was very pleasant; everything on my plate had flavour and tasted of what it should have, which I haven't always had in the past with a carvery.
The only downside in my experience was the queue at the bar and the slightly wobbly table (10)!

My son attended the kids Halloween party on Saturday that was great and he really enjoyed. I think it's amazing the events the pub is putting on for children and adults for the community. We also enjoyed our meal, cooked lovely and good friendly and attentive service by Codie :)

Poor Sunday carvery. Went for a vegetarian option waited ages, so sent the rest of the family up to get theirs, only to be told by family that mine was standing to the side going cold for ages! No staff member informed me that my food was ready. This is the 2nd time this has happened to me here.

Also not much choice with vegetables, was expecting cabbage, broccoli etc but only peas and sweetcorn. Family member wanted stuffing and was told when ready they would bring to the table. This didn't happen. Not impressed with the food or service.

1st time I had poor service I put it down as a one off but won't be returning, this seems to be just how they are. Expensive for what you have (or don't have!).

Lovely food, I have had Hunters Chicken and my partner had regular carvery. Both were lovely, The Ultimate Beef Burger is really nice!

We have lived in Port Talbot a few years now, and have avoided this pub when it was known as the copper penny, as it had a pretty poor reputation. My wife decided it was time to give it go, based on the pretty good reviews the place had, my expectations were high. As carverys go it's been many years since we have found a good one. Unfortunately that trend hasn't be broken here. While hot, the food lacked much flavour, the meat on offer was small and not very generous, the veg plentiful but either overcooked or underdone. The food wasn't inedible its was just bland. If your looking to eat out on a budget and are not fussy, it's probably a great place. The beer was cold and of good quality so no grumbles there. We will probably go back and try a different offering from the menu, perhaps that may be better, but on this occasion we were disappointed.

Arrived at 4pm for a birthday bash, 16 people, we all ordered different meals at the bar and when we informed them we were ready the order was released to the kitchen. All meals were served as one with very little waiting. Everyone enjoyed, good atmosphere families welcome,
Would recommend.

After waiting for over 30 minutes standing in the doorway for a table in a queue ,eventually sat at our table ,then waited in another queue for carvery for over another half hr ,we actually ate our food at 4.15 our sitting was 2.15. The chef ,felt sorry for him, I understand they were short staff , but he was serving 1 or 2 people then he spent more time back and fore kitchen refilling all the hotplates. Thought we would give it another go after last year when one of the ovens broke down and we ate at 5. So unfortunately we won't be going next year. BUT i will say the bar staff & Waiters & Waitresses worked so hard to get it all to run as smoothly as they could , so hats off to them.😉 👏 And the food was gorgeous it was such a shame,spoilt it really.
