    Brilliant meal and excellent service. Couldn't fault it at all! The dishes were authentic and cooked to perfection, the menu choices and wine list were excellent and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely recommend for a special occasion or a treat. We will be returning.

    Excellent quality genuine French food without a premium price. I was impressed with the customer service and the presentation in addition to every single dish had, which in turn is a mix of modern cuisine and classic inspirations.

    Phenomenal. For some reason I haven't made it to the Pant y Gwydr before. It is absolutely one one of the best restaurants in Swansea. I regret not coming here before. Comfortably in the top five with Slice, the Beach House and Hanson at the a Chelsea. Incredible, authentic french cuisine in a light an airy restaurant with a chatty atmosphere. The staff were friendly, courteous and professional. All the food is cooked from fresh in house and it really shows in the quality of the food. The food was very reasonably priced as well. I'm not sure why else to say but don't procrastinate and check out the Pant y Gwydr! I will absolutely be making a return visit!

    Excellent food and service as always, be sure to book in advance as it's very busy. Make sure you save enough room for the coffee and desert as they are exceptional!

    10 years ago I first discovered this restaurant when I lived in Swansea and I loved it back then. I have since turned vegan. French cuisine is classically animal product heavy and the French vegan cuisine I have tasted (including a vegan French restaurant in Paris!) has been very forgettable. I was flabbergasted and so excited to see the addition of so many vegan options on the menu! The dishes was thoughtful and creative and I couldn't wait to try. The menu exceeded all expectations... A thoughtful amuse bouche celebrating the humble delicious tomato was aburst with flavour The Millefeuille of vegetables with a prominent earthy spinach sauce and also tasted the gateau de courgette with gently layered ribbons of courgette atop a delicious filling with a rich tomato sauce. For main I indulged in the couscous/vegetable tagine and vegan tofu croquettes - beautifully sculpted and flavoursome croquettes and the vegetables sung in the tagine bathed in an umami rich sauce and never did I think cous cous could be cooked so beautifully. A carafe of Beaujolais to hand to complement these vegetables beautifully. The piece de resistance was indeed dessert - I was concerned that I would never be able to taste the trio that is the incredible, irresistible, mouthwatering and ingenious "la vanille" - however a vegan version appeared on the menu and my dreams came true! Whilst it is challenging to substitute eggs in dessert - this was the best vegan version of creme brulee I have ever tasted. And wow - the raspberry sorbet - I was in heaven! (Sadly I was so in the moment I forgot to snap a pic!) I am speechless and booking my next meal as we speak eventhough I now live 4 hours away! Worth traversing the country for without a doubt! I appreciate so much your exploration and embrace of plant based food 🙏 This is the best dining out vegan experience I have EVER experienced! Book now!

    A little gem in Swansea. The service was top notch, made you feel like you were at a swanky restaurant! They were always happy to help and were very pleasant. Food was unbelievable! Really tasty and vibrant. The only let down was that the triple cooked chips were likely frozen chips cooked to death.

    Wow!!!! The food and service was so outstanding that we have booked a larger table for two weeks time. I had a mixture of vegan and non vegan food, my family the same. All our dishes were of the highest standards, perfectly displayed and served with professionalism that you would expect from a 5star hotel. I can't praise this restaurant enough.

    Good French style restaurant. Price is OK, not expensive.

    This was our second visit, two years after our first meal at Pant-Y-Gwydr. We were excited to return and despite our high expectations we were not at all disappointed. The meal was superb, with exquisitely balanced flavours and attention to detail. The menu is clearly well practiced with limited variation, but it doesn’t matter as there is plenty to choose from. We had two children in our party (aged 9 and 13) and whilst there isn’t a children’s menu we were able to use a couple of options modified to accommodate them. Children with unsophisticated palates might not be as well catered for. The interior appears to have been redecorated since we last visited and it felt more homely and comfortable than our first visit. The location of the restaurant is out of keeping with the quality of the food and service, but do not let that put you off from visiting.

    With widespread upheaval in the Hospitality industry, it is a challenging time to provide an excellent experience for the customer which justifies the costs associated with eating out. Pant-Y-Gwydr maintains an excellent standard throughout. A warm, welcoming setting is exemplified by the standard of service, managing the fine balance between being attentive but not intrusive. The food is where pant-y-gwydr shines, with quality ingredients skillfully incorporated into adventurous but traditional dishes and cooked & presented perfectly. Although prices everywhere have risen, the pant-y-gwydr provides superb value for money considering the quality of food on offer, albeit at the premium end of the scale. This is clearly not a restaurant for weekly casual dining, but is outstanding as a luxurious treat.

    I have and still do travel, eat and drink well in France and I have to complement the restaurant with its authenticity and quality of French regional dishes. The restaurant prices are probably similar to those in France.

    The staff and food at the Pant-y-Gwydr restaurant is absolutely fabulous 👌 If you haven't been there, give it a go, you won't be dissapointed. The wine list is excellent, coffee to die for.

    Although this restaurant has been opened for some years, this was our first visit. Service was spot on, food absolutely gorgeous - a very positive experience. Would definitely recommend.

    Booked table early as we were going to the grand. Haven't been here for a few years but was again not disappointed. Service was excellent and the food ...wow. we were given a cheese and chive taster followed by mushroom starter which was delicious. My wife had fillet rossini and I had chicken breast both with triple fries. Desserts were a strawberry sponge with cream dish and the other was triple ice cream Finished off with an espresso. Fabulous start to the evening. We will return

    What a gorgeous menu! We tried all of the vegan options between us and they were all outstanding, creative and fresh but with a rustic base that made everything feel so comforting! Lovely service by the lady who owns it, would highly recommend to anyone looking for wonderful food cook individually and supporting a small business. You wouldn’t believe how high quality it is from being hidden away in it’s little house on the street! I can’t wait to come back 😊

    Good service. Beautiful food with spot on timings between starters and main course. One of the best meals in Swansea in a quiet little corner of the city!
