This has got to be one of the oldest pubs in South Wales, it's medieval and dates from 1380. This is one of those places that reminds you how small we used to be - I'm only 5ft 7 and I stoop through the worn wooden doors. I havn't eaten here, but there is also a well respected restaurant upstairs offering a good selection of seafood dishes. Dishes include: Brixham Crab Cake with baby leaves and lemon butter sauce (£5.25); Plaice Goujons with paprika and a sweet red pepper tartar sauce (£4.95); Roasted Fillet of Hake with a chorizo and roasted red pepper risotto ith tomato, garlic and orange sauce for £13.95 For the vegetarians on the day I visited there was: Tomato Fondue, Wild Mushroom and Aubergine Bake, finished with garlic crumb and poached egg (£4.95) and Rosemary and Truffle Arancini Risotto with a tomato, red onion and spring onion salsa ( £4.95). The restaurant opening times are Monday to Saturday from 7pm to 9.30pm. They also offer bar meals between 12 and 2 pm Mondays to Saturdays and evening meals Monday to Friday from 6 to 8 pm.

It was very welcoming and clean with all new bathrooms with cozy robes, complimentary beer, fizzy water, biscuits, and we enjoyed some great food. Breakfast was included. Also very dog friendly! They provided a dog bed for the family dog. Oh and very lovely beer brewed on side! Will be back for sure!

I've stopped off for a snack or a quick drink a couple of times, and it's always really impressed me, and the lunch my parents and I had recently ranks as one of the best pub dinners the Andrews family can remember. Their crab sandwiches were fresh, as were the fish in their delicious creamy leek fish stew, while the ploughmans was huge. Desserts of chocolate and pecan brownie and banana fritters with toffee sauce were gobbled up. Ok, it's not cheap for a Devon pub, but the food is worth every penny - there was hardly anything on the menu I didn't want to scoff down. The pub itself is a charming sprawl of wooden rooms, and a small seating area out the front. It's homely and although the staff run a slick operation, they're still friendly and helpful. The pub was recently taken over by St Austell Brewery, so there's a good range of their beers, plus a couple of guest ales. This includes one local beer brewed in Branscombe. It's quaint, delicious, comfy and sits in one of the most stunning areas of the Devon coast. It is, quite simply, a perfect pub.

    The Ferry Inn is a very popular gastropub in an enviable position on the River Teifi. (The views…read moreare fantastic.) It has a cosy bar area, three inside eating areas with river views, two outside eating areas and a terrace to really enjoy the view. They are happy to accommodate diners with dogs (there are also dog-free areas) and it's very child-friendly (there's a children's menu, and some tables seat eight). The menu offers starters at £7.50-£7.95, mains around £18 (except fish and seafood at £24 and steak at £29), desserts at £7.50, as well as a choice of ice creams and sorbets (£3.50-£7.50). They offer a range of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. We chose Sea Bass served with Lemon Parsley Caper Butter, Herb Roasted New Potatoes, Garden Salad with Buckwheat & Broad Beans with Honey Mustard Sauce & New Leaf Microgreens (£24); and the one of the vegetarian options: Glamorgan Crumble a tower of Leeks, Carrot, Breadcrumbs & Mature Cheddar Cheese, Garlic & Herb Roasted New Potatoes, Glebelands Salad, Quinoa, Bean, Vegetable Salad & Fresh Herb White Sauce (£19.95). We followed this with Dark Cherry & Marzipan Bake Vanilla Ice Cream £7.50. Overall, the food was very good, except that the seabass was (disappointingly) over done and therefore falling apart. I always think it's a little odd serving a cold side salad on the side (or in my case underneath) a hot dish, although overall the flavours did work well together. The Glamorgan Crumble was very tasty. Service was a little manic: some staff seemed to run around all evening, and we were served by four different people during the evening. (One was very nice, two were a bit brusque.) They were busy, but we had booked (and were expecting) a table in the downstairs area with a river view, but were shown to a different part of the restaurant area. There were, however, a number of reserved tables which remained empty through the evening, so it seems like they had a few no-shows. Overall we had a nice evening: with two glasses of wine, the bill came to £75 for two, excluding service. It's firmly worth four stars, and of course you're paying for the location, but at these prices, getting the fish right and calmer service would land a five.

    What a truly great place to visit when in Cardiff or nearby. First - real history - the inn was…read morebuilt in 1380AD. It is truly beautiful, historic, warm and cosy. On top of that the food is fabulous, the staff friendly and many real ales. We visited for lunch and kept it simple - I took the green Thai curry which was hot, spicy and truly delicious. Mrs G tried the calves liver and repeatedly shared how great it was. Definitely 5 stars and worth the 30 minute drive from Central Cardiff to this remote and beautiful spot!

    The approach to Aberthaw is pretty uninspiring, as this tiny village - once a busy mediaeval port -…read moreis now dominated by a Cement Works and the bulk of the huge coal-fired power-station, with aircraft from nearby Cardiff Airport flying overhead. But ignore all that, because the Blue Anchor is what you come here for. It's a fabulous old pub, with low ceilings (and some very low doorways), stone walls and a thatched roof. There's a new restaurant extension, built in a sympathetic matching style, but the old section has more character, including a wonderful snug with a very low doorway. Dating back to 1380, it has traded as a pub almost continuously since that time. One of the interruptions (in 2004) nearly put paid to that, when the roof caught fire and destroyed the upper part of the mediaeval building. Fortunately, the damage was repaired and, once inside, you feel a world away from the pub's surroundings. It serves a wide range of real ales: these include Wadworths 6X, Wye Valley Hereford Pale Ale, Brains Bitter and Theakston's Old Peculiar, as well as visiting guest ales. As you'd expect from a former CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale) pub of the year, they are very well kept. It's also well known for its home-cooked food, often using locally grown ingredients, served either in the restaurant (Egon Ronay recommended) or the bar itself. As you'd expect, it gets busy, and Sunday lunch reservations are essential. Starters are around £5, mains £10 and desserts £5. Lovers of Sticky Toffee Pudding should go for that (and not expect to walk very far any time soon - portions are substantial). There are a few parking places immediately in front of and behind the pub, with a small car park across the road. Well worth searching out if you are in the Cardiff area.
