Park View Cafe - Rhondda Cynon Taf

I haven't been to the cafe for years and was out and about so thought I'd take home some supper. I really wanted some faggots peas and chips. I got there and no one was queuing but 3 people were waiting. No faggots so I ordered cod, chips and mushy peas and paid over £12 for this. Not too long a wait but there was a wait and I was eventually given my order. I got home and while the portions were good I wasn't overly impressed. The fish was okay as was the mushy peas but the chips were just awful, just dry and tasteless, in fact I couldn't eat them. So for an okay piece of fish and some mushy peas I paid over £12 never again. Maybe with a change of ownership things will improve but I am in no rush to go back! It is nowhere near the quality it once was obviously the owner has just given up.

Small portions expensive prices even allowing for the present cost of living. Food is ok thought but not better than some local places.

My father and I used to come to this restaurant every two weeks for chicken curry and chips with bone-in chicken. It had been about a year since our last visit, so I decided to stop by and grab a meal for old times' sake. However, I was extremely disappointed with the changes in the food. The portion size was much smaller, the chicken was no longer bone-in, but rather cheap frozen breast meat cubed. When I called to complain, the staff was unhelpful and refused to make any adjustments. I made it clear that the quality of the food had drastically declined and that the price was now too high. The photos of the dish speak for themselves.

I have always been a fan of this restaurant. However, something has changed recently and it is not working. I found hair in my food and the service was extremely slow.

The fish and chips here were really nice. The staff were friendly. The service was good and really fast. Great food and service. Would recommend.
