The Pilot - Menu

I like it hereIt's a no-nonsense pub pub, if you know what I meanIt's a local pub where non-locals are made to feel friendly and welcome.

Lovely pub and very pleasant sitting outside in the evening sunshine. Delicious food! Not sure why dogs aren't allowed after 6, hence 4 stars.

Excellent food and service. Francois and the team provide fantastic hospitality! Good selection of delicious food and drinks, all of decent bistro quality and reasonable prices.

We went to the Pilot for Sunday lunch, and found the staff the ambiance and the food lovely. We had beef dinner which was very nice, the only problem being we found it rather expensive.

Fantastic food, service and price. Myself and my wife stopped in after a long walk and were very impressed by the food and service from the team. The lunch time menu is great and will priced. We will defiantly be back.

Great cosy pub with an excellent view of the city. Good selection of local beer. Fantastic value lunch menu available too. I had roast duck and it was delicious, super crispy skin! The sauce was so tasty we had order extra which was no problem. Can’t wait to take my family.

The Pilot: Part of the small Knife Fork group. 3 ales at time of calling. Modern style establishment french cafe` effect (not really pub style). Staff very welcoming professional. Lunch simply excellent very reasonably priced quality. Toilets clean, modern well maintained. Definitely worth a visit, however like many places in Penarth not easy to find.

We were visiting a friend who has recently come out of hospital following a hip operation. When we visit we normly take him out for lunch, however not possible this time. Following some research we found The Pilot did take away whole roast chicken dinner for 4 and all the trimmings. We ordered this last Sunday at lunchtime, collected it and took it back to his flat piping hot. The meal was really tasty and cooked to perfection. We carved the chicken, there were plenty of roast potatoes, carrots and parsnips, cabbage, yorkshie puddings annd gravy, all delicious. Would have given 5 stars, but didn't stay in the pub for a long time.

Dreadful customer service with weird policies. Was my local pre pandemic and thought i would give it a try with my dog as nearby. Shabby on outside and empty at 6.45 on a wednesday. Ordered my pint and was then told that dogs are not allowed in after 6 as part of group policy. was then asked to sit outside in cold or leave. place was previously dog friendly. when asked why dogs were allowed told it was group policy in case it was busy and they take up space ??? place was empty on what was meant to be Steak night. the lady was rude and a should not work in hospitality. We use their other pub the sully inn which allows dogs in all the time so it is not group policy. It had the air of a pub goi...
