The Rickards Arms in Rhondda Cynon Taf

Excellent Sunday lunch. Lovely staff. We'll definitely revisit.

Menu has loads of options, even for vegans. Food is served hot and fresh. Drinks and food are so reasonable. Dog friendly inside and out, beer garden on the roof. Loads of seating too. Love it here!

A nice pint good choice of ciders, one of the best beers gardens around great when the sun goes down to and they get the fire pit out to. Always a good laugh up there. A classic pub.

Food at this place was tremendous prices are okay and atmosphere was good also the two girls behind bar were very helpful and welcoming.

Awesome pub, friendly staff with a mix of locals and students. Always fun and always a great atmosphere with stunning food

Nice open space with screens for sports events. Outside area to the rear is also a good space with fire pit and covered seating areas. Dogs also welcome. Good beers and snack selection. Oh, and the breakfast are great. Breakfast comes with extras you wouldn't normally get for the price, with quality sausages.

Good drinks here and lively pub with jukeboxBut stop serving food on a early Saturday evening lolNot good when your hungry

We rarely eat local and felt like we should be supporting local business.After ordering and waiting for food for 50 minutes I ventured back to the bar to ask, only to be completely ignored by my server she instead served a regular that shoved money in her face, should have asked who was next.After asking me what I ordered again and guessing wrongly, she went to the kitchen to check.It turns out she had forgotten to take our order to the kitchen (wasn't busy) and told us we would have to wait another 30 minutes. Almost an hour and a half after placing the order.I of course asked for a refund and went around the corner for a pizza that was ordered and ready in 10 minutes.What a let down and a massive shame. I won't be returning 😔

Expecting the 5 star service others have reported, sorely disappointed.Had booked but none looked after us. After at least 45 mins no food but tables empty on our arrival getting food Eventually after complaining food arrived. Had to ask for cutlery no serving spoons. At this point good food would have made up for it. Unfortunately there was a very unpleasant bitter salty taste to the food. Only one small piece of roast potatoe which was black inside & inedible.Real shame as was attracted by veggie option & choice of portion size. Basically ignored Won't risk returning.Also generally grimmy & toilet dirty.

This place is much the same as the Pic N Shovel(I think the Otley Arms is also run by the same owner, who's a top bloke if im correct). This too never fails to satify the customer, it always has been a lovely cozy place with a warm atmosphere and welcoming staff. The food and drink is second to none the prices are more than affordable and the quality is also of a very high standard. Alternatively, if you do like a beer whilst watching some sports on a big screen then you'll be happy to know that some lagers are available at around £2.50 a pint!. For a pub to charge that given It's 2020 and alcohol prices are increasing fast, is amazing, £2.50!? that's Brilliantly Cheap for a quality pint!. 👍
