The Yard is a really strong addition to the Cowbridge foodie scene. All pizzas freshly prepared in house with high quality Italian flour and tomatoes and topped with plenty of local ingredients. The huge wood fired pizza oven is the star of the show along with the lovely staff. Nice range of sides and pastas if that's your thing, but the pizzas are first class. My Pedwar Caws with Welsh cheese disappeared in no time. The restaurant itself is a good space and very family friendly and the food fairly priced. Just add a cple of Welsh and Italian gins to the menu and it will be perfect!

Lovely place , our pizzas were delicious , staff were friendly , atmosphere was good and the decor ^ design of Pizza Restaurant works well when busy and if you bring small children. They do Comedy shows the last Sunday of each month and also deliver pizza as well as alcohol to certain areas close to Cowbridge! They can cater for Celiacs and Vegans. We are returning for the next Comedy Show

Had literally one of the best pizzas I've ever tasted here. Double cheese, double pepperoni, with several interesting ciders.

Lovely place, really warm and relaxing venue. The lasagne was fantastic, my partner had a pepperoni pizza with a side of pesto dip, we are still talking about that dip - it was incredible, best pesto we've had outside of Genoa

The best pizza I've ever had ! I had the good shepard 2.0 with no black olives and it was delicious. I loved the different sauce, a nice change from tomato base. The service was quick and friendly and the side dishes were lovely too. Cant wait to return !

Sat and dined al fresco last night outside @theyardpizzacowbridge a lovely little find on the high street. All the food was fresh and the service was fantastic. The sunshine made it feel like sitting outside a pizzeria in Rome! We had the Garlic dough sticks which were full of a pungent garlic flavour that smashed you in the face on these crispy little slices of dough. We also tried the arancini, but these were sadly not as good, they were very crispy but the mixture inside was very wet and mushy, still full of flavour and presented perfectly leaving us slightly underwhelmed. The pizza dough was fresh and crispy whilst still doughy at the same time, and the toppings were all high quality and again full of flavour, my only negative would be the sauce was a bit runny for my liking. Will return for another visit as overall the food was fantastic and less than £40 well worth it. Food Quality - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Value for money - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall Experience - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
