Really enjoyed, food was great, i had the plant burger which I would recommend. Things to improve would be: two different sound systems going at the same time, we were seated near the entrance to the first room so had to hear them both at the same time. Food came on a chopping board which felt like chip kerplunk, with chips falling off onto the table if I wasn't extremely careful, next time I'd ask for a plate. Would go again because service and food were fab.

Loved the food! The portion sizes are insane. Can't wait to come back for a coffee and slice of cheesecake. Only negative is the back of my seat was a little uncomfortable so I had to swap to another seat. Loved seeing a photo of my great great grandfather on the wall.

Food was ok just found the mint sauce didn’t compliment the curry very well the meatball starter was fantastic but the chicken wings weren’t that great it was also very loud in the restaurant and couldn’t hear each other or hear the waitress very well which wasn’t her fault in the slightest it was just that the restaurant was very loud, couldn’t fault the staff at all the service was outstanding. Was a bit disappointed that the Italian menu wasn’t available so will be back to try that when it’s available as if it’s anything like the meatballs it will be outstanding. Again we will be back but I did feel after all the hype the food was a slight let down, and just felt the restaurant was very loud for a restaurant.

The food and people are all first class and we would definitely return. I think maybe some extra training for the staff as they were so young, might be helpful for them, as they seemed a little unsure of things, but they were really lovely so this isn’t a criticism but hopefully constructive feedback. The food is out of this world and we will definitely be back for more. We have only heard others say good things about it as well. Long may this lovely restaurant thrive! Thank you for a lovely evening.

Food was great, staff and service was good! Unfortunately, there was no vegetarian/vegan main meal options like the other Mine restaurant in Cwmgrach. Being the same restaurant, we expected the same menu and this was sadly not the case. Visiting the restaurant with majority of the party being vegetarian and looking at the Cwmgrach menu as we had been before, the vegetarians were disappointed with the lack of options. Luckily, one of the staff convinced the party to have vegetarian pizzas, which was lovely! But not the original options as to what everyone wanted.

The limited menu was the issue, no healthy option and only burgers and curry style meals available. It was a shame not to have the Italian menue available even ghough its advertised. I had the upside down naan but too much food on one plate, felt shameful to waste so much in this current climate. The food however was hot, very tastful and full of flavour. The staff were incredible and very accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. The venue itself was lovely and the atmosphere was great. We were by no means rushed out and had plenty of time to sit and have a cocktail too!

First time at the mine ,with friends from Chicago. Food was good but service very average - wasn’t offered or explained about the shovels - easy £12 upsell missed. Not offered dessert which we would have gone for ! Downstairs toilet was very dirty and this was early in the night ! Overall good experience but with little effort could have been much better.

Food was amazing and staff were so lovely, however, our food was served an hour and 25 mins after we arrived. We were not informed there was a staff shortage issue, it was only when we asked after an hour wait, but also told it was due to 'walk ins', which was strange, as when we called in to book a table weeks before were told that it was a strict on line booking system. This spoiled our visit sorry. Cwmgrach Mine had a better atmosphere and service and more professionally run.
