Fulgoni John St Porthcawl - Bridgend

Had a meal here and was very disapointed all round, I will never go here again. There a far nicer places to eat in Porthcawl than Fulgoni's, Beales Restaurant down the road from the fairground is much better.

Well reading the reviews im beginning to wonder if its the same place we visited.Had to queue which wasnt really a problem as we required a table for four.Frankly it was like being in a timewarp.It was so dated and cramped.The waitress was friendly enough took our orders we all decided on a roast lunch.The plates were small which made you look as though the meal was huge , it was enough to be fair .It was a basic mediocre roast pork lunch.Decided on desserts 2 blackcurrant tarts and custard and 2sundaes.The tart was unavailable so had what we were told was apple and blackberry but was aplle .A portion in a small dish with hot custard .had i been blindfolded id not know what it was other than hot ! Tastless tart no sugar and bland custard.The meal was with a drink 12 pounds which is very reasonable however id have preferred to pay 20 pounds and have enjoyed it.It was very similar to hospital meals no salt or sugar edible but not enjoyable.However it obviously is popular but i suspect with people who only eat basic plain fare.But if its not broke why fix it? It appears to have been similar if not exact since the day it opened.

Had lunch here today staff very friendly lovely home cooked food at very good value for money will visit again thanks x

On first glance this place is a preserved time capsule from the 60s but when you sit down and really take in everything you can see the building is very run down and hasn't seen any investment in a very long time. The feature hardwood ceiling is badly bowed over the counter with signs of water damage. Nothing looks very clean.

The cafe could really do with a freshen up, still reminds me of the seventies and eighties but disappointed they didn't sell their own ice cream. Food simple but as tasty as ever. Queues outside for tablevsays it's still as popular as ever and provides excellent value for money.
