Where to eat near Laugharne Castle and the Dylan Thomas Boathouse

If you're wondering where to eat near Laugharne Castle or the Dylan Thomas Boathouse, The Globe is a couple of minutes' walk from both, on Duncan Street. You can do the Castle, the Boathouse and the estuary path and still be sat down for lunch without getting back in the car.

Make a day of it

Most people come to Laugharne for the same reasons — the Castle above the estuary, the Boathouse where Dylan Thomas lived and worked, the walk along the water with the town behind you. It's a proper half-day. The trick is not to spend the good part of it hungry, or to finish the walk and settle for whatever's quickest.

A short walk from the sights

We're near enough that you can fold us into the day rather than plan around us. Morning first: the bakery's open from about half eight, so it's fresh bread, a croissant and a coffee before you head up to the Castle. Or do it the other way — the walk first, lunch after, kitchen on from 12 Tuesday to Saturday.

What's on

The menu changes with the season and leans on what's near — line-caught fish, Welsh beef and lamb, a plate built for the garden. There's a garden-to-glass cocktail list if you fancy one with lunch, and a secret garden out the back for when the weather plays along. Dogs are welcome too, if yours has come for the walk. Here's the menu.

The honest bit

Two things. We keep to the Tuesday-to-Saturday kitchen, so a Sunday or Monday trip wants planning around. And weekends and school holidays fill up with people doing exactly this day out, so if you've driven over for the Castle and the Boathouse, book a table before you set off. It saves the disappointment of a full room at the end of a good walk.
