It's a bit off the beaten track. An old pub with what must have been, before covid, a decent restaurant. It now stands a bit lost and though not run down, feels like it needs some TLC and some fresh customers. It's lacking a bit of pizzazz and the menu has been cut right back, see photographs. But the staff are friendly and trying their best with a hard location. It pulls a decent pint, it is comfortable and from a very cut-back menu, see photographs, the food is good. The staff are doing a great job. So if your in the area, pop in, sit down and enjoy some good pub grub. Well done the whole team running this pub restaurant and doing a great job in the place, you are doing good job 👍🏻.

I have uploaded more photos as i have visited again and my original review still stands tall, amazing service. *Original review* Absolutely brilliant, the food was amazing, free parking at the rear and the lady that served us was brilliant, very polite and welcoming, I was super shocked that my meal with drinks and deserts for 2 was less than £40. The Black Ox is very homely and very comfortable as you can see from photos. Such a fabulous time I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for top quality food with a great service. 10 out of 10 to the chef and staff. Thanks

Went to the Black Ox for Sunday lunch. The food was good, but not great, the portion sizes were very good, with excellent beef, but mediocre veg. The mash was unpleasant and the roasties could weren't crispy. The staff were lovely and we received good service, although having to queue at the bar (you can't pay at the table) to pay the bill spoilt the experience a bit for me. The chairs in the restaurant are really hard and uncomfortable. The meal was very reasonably priced at £16 for 2 courses or £18 for 3 courses.

Went here for the first time Sunday (6/7/25). Had a Sunday roast, both meats, chicken and beef and i gotta say it was bloody stunning.

The beef just melted and was the first time I've had it like that. Gravy was stunning, the cauliflower was not to my taste, my wife liked it though so personal preference.

The pudding wasn't good though, apple crumble, although its not the only place, is not apple crumble, its apple and oats. No idea why everywhere has started doing it and the raspberry and white chocolate roulade wasn't nice, but again my wife liked it.

So its a 4* because the food itself was almost flawless for me and thays a rare thing these days.

Staff were very nice, the place was nice. Can really recommend. Gonna go back for a...

We had a family Sunday lunch here Sept 2024. Food was very nice , starters were a little small for the price but tasty. The roast was fantastic and plenty of veg for everyone . I don't like being negetive on reviews but I would say in the nicest possible way that the staff that served our table hadn't had a lot of experience or training which is down to the manager /employer. But they were lovely girls and nothing was to much trouble. 1 thing that I was a bit disappointed in was the waiter that brought the veg to the table was actually chewing food while putting our veg on the table . Was not really impressed with that but over all food made up for it . Price was good to . Toilets could do with a...

This is a traditional pub / restaurant on the main street of a Welsh village near Carmarthen. When we visited it was very quiet, but the hospitality was warm and genuine, the menu was much reduced from that shown on the internet, but the food available was very tasty, well prepared, good portion size and well presented, and the price was very reasonable. Drink prices are again very reasonable. The staff were very friendly and professional. There is not that much parking available except on the quiet main street. We were only here once on holiday for an evening meal and this is a great wee place it just needs more customers, if you are in the area do visit you will probably be surprised and not...
