The beef burger was served on a soggy bun and while the patty was quite large, it lacked seasoning and flavour. The chips were undercooked and oily. I did have a nice shiraz but 5 of their tap beers were off on the day we visited - considering it was during the Christmas period I would have thought they would have plenty of stock. I would usually give this place 2 stars but a couple of the locals I was with assured me it was an off day. Here's hoping they're right.....

Risen from the ashes, with much hard work, care and attention, The Bush Inn is simply a great place…read morefor an evening or lunch out. With its thatched roof, low ceilings and flagstone floors, it captures the very essence of what a country pub restaurant is all about, and the building itself dates back to the 16th century. Run by the highly accommodating Liz and Andy Silva, the menu features locally sourced ingredients and mouthwatering specials, far superior to anything you would get from the average chain pub. Great care and attention have gone into the renovation of The Bush Inn, and it shows. The wine list is expansive and varied, prices are very reasonable, and children are welcome, too. Word of advice - make sure you book before you go!

A genuinely historic pub serving real ale and food - with a real fire in winter…read more The Old Swan Inn sits in the old centre of the ancient town of Llantwit Major, across the narrow street from the 15th Century town hall. The pub building may be almost as old - it is thought to have been built as a substantial house in the 16th century, although it is not clear when it became a pub. Records show that in the 1650s the owner was allowed to mint his own tokens due to a shortage of coinage - usually a sign of a pub or other business. Anyway, it has now been a pub for at least 200 years, and feels like it: the stone-built exterior is fairly plain, with a low door giving on to a small, cosy room, with another room (with the bar) off to the right. The interiors are exactly what you would expect: flagstone floors, stone walls, traditional dark wood furniture, and low beamed ceilings. There is an attractive beer garden outside for use in the summer, as well. The pub is known for its real ale, and has three or four on at any time - usually local or interesting small breweries, which makes for a nice change. They serve food as well - roasts on Sundays, with a slightly more adventurous menu during the week. The food is fine, though not outstanding, but service was prompt and very friendly - as were the bar staff. On my visit, there was a roaring fire in the main dining area. The main downer is that it does get very busy, and is worth booking a table if you want to eat. The crowd a mixture of locals (coming to drink) and well-heeled Vale types coming to eat. There's no car parking at the pub, (the streets are far too narrow for that) but there is a municipal car park over the road, just behind the town hall.

You'll find this little gem on the road to Cowbridge, heading out of Cardiff from Culverhouse Cross. You've probably already driven past it a half dozen times. Well, I urge you to go inside! Oh, go on. This is a great traditional pub with on site parking (that really makes a difference, trust me) and is all too easy to find. I won't bore you all with a description of what you might find in a traditional pub, for that would be insulting your intelligence. Instead I shall simply reiterate that here you will find a warm welcome, great food and well priced drinks. A lovely place to find yourself heading towards on an evening in the summer. Now that the nice weather is rolling in across the Atlantic, pubs outside the city at the place to be!
