Y Bistro - Menú

The restaurant has slow service for both drinks and food. It is just an average restaurant with prices that are above average.

Had dinner here recently service good food varied and well cooked nice and local always good. Attentive service locally sourced meat and veg plenty of it pleasant atmosphere very helpful staff.

Turned up Saturday lunchtime (1pm) and place was empty maybe that should have made us stop and think. Waitress was pleasant. Starters were good. Main courses, especially the halibut, were over priced, had bones and was way over cooked. Prawn bisque was tasteless. Curry was nearly alright. One other couple had lunch that day. It was our first visit and as its near to where we live, we were hopeful for a nice lunch but unfortunately, at best it was 'average ', but really it was 2.5 stars.

Myself, my Wife and Daughter went for Dinner on Saturday 4th August. There were only 5 other people dining there. We ordered drinks and my wife asked for a glass of ice which the waitress seemed puzzled by. We had to ask 3 times before it was finally brought out. The food arrived which wasn’t anything special, and my wife asked for a glass of Rose at the same time, this never arrived despite me asking again during Dinner. When I complained to the Manageress she just said “ sorry but it’s been hectic here today” . Don’t know how they would have coped if they had been full, but there were only about 10 other Diners when we left.

After a few days camping in a field in Cwympengraig we chanced on Emlyn Hotel. The Bistro was recommended so we gave it a try. I was delighted that the cod was in gluten free batter. It was perfectly cooked and a generous portion. The Lentil and Spinach burger was good, but was a curry flavour. I like curry, but was going more for a classic taste that night and it didn't say that it was a curry burger. Having said that the gluten free roll was excellent and from a local baker and the triple cooked chips were fantastic. My husband had the welsh cake stack with Penderyn Ice cream and maple syrup. He said it was utterly delicious!

Very disappointing. Dietry requirements specified on booking but meals suitable for gluten free diet merely meant various items missing from the plate, no substitutes given yet still charged full price. Plates and potatoes were cold, advised cauliflower cheese not gluten free yet not served for anyone. On asking advised not available today ... so why mention it is not gluten free?? Vegetables had clearly been reheated in the microwave as green beans were totally shrivelled up. Think the masher was broken as the swede had so many hard lumps in it, and the leeks were watery and tasteless. So disappointed we went to another eatery for pudding!!

The staff at the restaurant were very friendly, but we had to keep asking for our drinks to be refreshed. The atmosphere and setting were lovely. However, the menu lacked imagination and resembled a glorified pub grub menu. I was surprised to see a salad section on the winter menu. The chicken dish was bland and did not have any pancetta as advertised. On the other hand, the crab cakes were very tasty. The dessert menu was limited, and we only found out about a dessert special, a brownie with vanilla ice cream, when we placed our order. One member of our party did not like vanilla ice cream and asked for an alternative, but the waitress informed us that the chef refused to provide one. This...

Booked to have lunch with friends, however due to unforeseen circumstances, one of the party was running over an hour late. The staff were very polite and we managed to order just before close of kitchen. The restaurant was empty and the venue had remained surprisingly quiet the whole time we were waiting for the late member. We had imagined with the time of year, an abundance of Christmas parties and merriment?! The menu wasn’t all that exciting and I was shocked not to find any Christmas options. I had the fish cakes which were tasty and the ribeye steak. Cooked to perfection (ordered rare) the steak was tasty but very fatty which was a shame, especially at £25. Accompaniments were plentif...

I dined at this restaurant as part of a large group booking with over 40 people. All food was ordered and paid for in advance. The venue looked nice, but unfortunately, the experience went downhill from there. The service at the bar was very slow, with only one bartender serving our group and the general public. There was no drink service at the tables, causing long waits for drinks. The starters were mediocre, with disappointing crab cakes. The main courses were bland and tasteless, with a chicken dish lacking the promised flavors of chicken Kiev. The desserts were inedible, with a poorly made cheesecake that many in our group couldn't even finish. Despite complaints about the food, there w...
