Blas At Bryn Meadows - Caerphilly

Beautiful location and wonderful meal. We stayed at Bryn Mesdows for our wedding anniversary and decided to have dinner in the restaurant. Excellent service would recommend the fish cakes. Very attentive staff, nothing was to much trouble.

We had both dinner and breakfast in Blas, as part of a spa package for a friends birthday. Blas used to be lovely, but our experiences last night and this morning were awful. We had to wait 45 mins to be told that the starters we had ordered were unavailable. Instead, we had garlic ciabatta, which was like eating cardboard. Then the mains were served... Veggie chilli was some beans in orange water. It had either been watered down or we had the dregs from the pot. The steak was awful chewy and tasteless. Not what you would expect for £30! The service was almost as bad as the food. The waitress clearly did all she could to avoid us after serving our meal was served. The food at breakfast was also pretty awful though not quite as bad as the dinner. The wait staff at breakfast were much better though and were actually pretty pleasant. It's really sad to see this once lovely restaurant decline so badly. We wont be returning.

Cane here for lunch after a spa session here. Staff were attentive and efficient and food was really good. The restaurant has great views over the golf course and is a good place to share a wine or coffee with friends.

Our hotel package included 2 nights dinner £25 per person each night), bed and breakfast. Saturday night wife ordered the chicken burger which advised came with fries, but was served with chunky chips she enjoyed the burger). I ordered rabbit and veg spring rolls which were bland but ok, and the Sirloin medium rare and requested fries, but was served medium well done with chunky chips so sent it back and requested to be more on the rare side to make it easier for the kitchen). It was cooked again medium well done so sent it back and decided to just move onto dessert. Had the chocolate melody which was rubbish, didn’t eat it. Sunday night wife played safe and ordered chicken burger again, this time it was actually served with fries. I ordered the veg soup for starters which was nice, and the chicken Balti. The rice was very soggy and appeared to be boil in the bag, the curry was very bland so didn’t eat it. I had a cooked breakfast both mornings, again very bland and tasted of low quality. Can honestly say the best part was the baked beans. On a final note, during check out the hotel acknowledged the issues and took £60 off our final bill. Appreciated the gesture but needless to say we have no intentions to return to the restaurant.

Fantastic views from restaurant across valley, Restaurant staff very polite and attentive especially Jake ,my daughter has vegan food and they had a variety of different choices for her we had 3 courses and a variety of drinks all in all we had a wonderful meal.
