"Really disappointed with meal and venue, nothing like as advertised on website, new to area and came across this place online, so thought we'd give it a go. My husband and I went, underwhelmed with deco, we ate in restaurant which they have tried to do up but it still doesn't meet the standard advertised, overcharged on drinks which I assume was due to us being served at the table, but I notice the website has since been updated with a revised drinks menu from April 2023, we attended 17th March. Cauliflower wings were swimming in oil, and my husband wasn't overly impressed with buffalo wings either. I had the rib eye and chips for my main which was overseasoned even for me, and my husband opted for the steak and ale pie, the peas tasted awful and mash inedible, reminded him of school dinners. Staff weren't attentive, and left unattended and without drinks or a steak knife. Would not re-visit."

Worst Buddha bowl ever, fried Lettuce,Broccoli, Asparagus and deep fried Cauliflower along with pureed peas. Chef needs to read the recipe. Never go there again.

Walked in thinking this food is going not going to be great but I shouldn’t of judged so early. The food was great definitely not your standard pub food. Staff very friendly. I would definitely comeback again if I come to this area again

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch at this restaurant. The food was 5-star quality and the service was amazing, relaxed, and friendly. We dine out most Sundays and this was the best experience we've had in a long time. Highly recommend trying this place. View menu

The service at this restaurant is exceptional, with attentive, friendly, and efficient staff. The Sunday lunch is impressive, with perfectly cooked, tender, and juicy beef, accompanied by delicious sides and gravy. The ambiance and atmosphere are inviting and cozy. The Rock is a top-notch dining spot that comes highly recommended. Overall, a delightful experience with charming and beautiful food. I will definitely be returning for more.

Wow, where do I begin? This was our second time dining at this restaurant, and Rob and the team truly exceeded our expectations. The food was fresh and delicious, the beer selection was great, and the staff were all very friendly. If you're seeking a relaxed evening out, I highly recommend giving this place a try. The prices are fair, and in my opinion, the quality of the food rivals some of the best options in Porthcawl. Kudos to the team, we will definitely be returning.

It's like a maze inside the floor between the kitchen and toilet is slippery when wet I found Overall the Sunday Roast was plenty did not like the red cabbage it had a smokey taste the parsnip was deep fried but seasonal veg was fresh and cooked perfectly and plenty of gravy we did not get to have dessert we were told we had to go as the table was needed for the next customer even though we'd only been sat an hour this dampend the entire meal they had clearly over booked which was not our fault but their own calculation what a shame View menu

Nice pub, friendly staff but really disappointed with the food. We told our friends to meet us there for dinner after seeing the reviews. Two of us ordered mussels as a main course. I was surprised to see how small they were and came with only one tiny slice of bread each! The waitress reassured us they were mains not starter portions but when we asked she spoke to the chef about giving us some more bread. She came back with an extra slice each, it was laughable and extremely poor value for £18! The others in the group ordered burgers and were all pretty underwhelmed. Won't recommend for food again.

We chose the special 2 course lunch for £12.65, had the main and dessert, the main was very bland and was missing onion, tomato and mushroom that you would usually have with a steak, when we mentioned this were told it would cost more. Our thoughts were well it was cheap, so can't expect the best. Then the bill arrived and it was an extra £8 each per person, when we asked about this thinking we had been overcharged, we we told there is an extra premium on a Saturday, there was nothing shown on the menu about this, and if you read the board outside the pub it is not shown on there either. We mentioned this to the waitress and she just said sorry she forgot to mention it. Well my friend and I...
