"When it comes to Aberdare and pubs, a lot is left to be desired. Generally it's the same old story across the board with pubs having badly stored beer (or a terrible selection where for ales it's John Smith's or Worthington's) that tastes horrid, rough people making you feel unwelcome and an overall bad vibe. The red cow is one of the few exceptions. It's a friendly pub with a nice interior that also does some great food. It's dog friendly and the beer is fine there. The only reason for not getting 5/5 is due to them only having grey trees mosaic ale on tap (the rest are smooth flow Worthington's type and cold lagers). It's not a bad ale but would be nicer to have more of a choice or at least to rotate that one ale (it's a hoppy beer so fine in Summer but nicer to have a bitter or even darker ale in colder seasons). For most of the part people are friendly but it wouldn't be Aberdare if there wasn't 1 or 2 gobby people there with a chip on their shoulder who might put a few rude comments your way (it's not a regular occurrence thankfully)"

What a fabulous place this is! I had the curry and the Wife had the ribs. Both were excellent in quantity/quality and we'll soon be back to try other dishes! 10 out of 10 to the chef!

Good food and huge portions. Was part of a large pre-booked group and they dealt with us well. Friendly staff and well organised. However, let down by people being seated at the bar making it difficult to get drinks as there was no table service for drinks.

"My wife and I booked a table at the Cinnamon Tree on Tuesday for the Sunday early evening to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I checked their web site first before booking as the actual date was on the Monday. Finding out that they did not...open on Mondays we opted for the Sunday. I telephoned the restaurant and made the booking. the person on the other end of the telephone repeated my details and time date ect. We turned up at the restaurant to fined it was closed with a sign on the door stating that they did not open on Sundays and Mondays. We got back in the car and went to turn around at the back of the restaurant and I saw a door at the back of the restaurant open. I stopped the car and went to the door and found someone in the kitchen. I told them that I had booked a table for that night and he confirmed what we had found out with the notes on the door. He then telephoned the owners of the restaurant and he put me on the telephone and I spoke to the owners partner and she said they have not been open for several weeks owing to staff shortages. I asked the lady why the booking had been taken as the staff must be aware of when the restaurant is closed or open and I had gone by their web site. She replied we haven't bothered to up date our web site and will not be doing so and have not bothered to blank out Sundays on the book were the reservations are written in and just blamed the person that took the booking in the first place. Her attitude was I couldn't care less. At this point I was boiling as I have used the Cinnamon Tree for many years and have always had a good meal there. But after this episode they can go to hell I will never go there again."
