We have selected a range of beers, lagers, ciders and stouts from around Europe to offer our guests a great range draught to either sip the night away or match with our great food.
After a long time looking for the perfect place I came across the Plough & Harrow, just inside The Gower peninsular, in the village of Murton. For me the place is perfect, not only back in Wales but my home town of Swansea. Two minutes from Caswell bay and a short drive from the city centre, with a car park and a cosy country pub interior, the place ticked every box.
I found myself some business partners, my Dad, Paul, and brother-in-law, Steve and now we start a long road together.
So come along, meet us, watch us grow and share in our story...

Nice little pub with a lovely written menu. Dishes were fine but not as great as reviews had led me to believe. Food was flavourful and very well presented but missed some of the finishing touches ( e.g. bread not toasted on Welsh breakfast leaving it soggy) Service was faultless and attentive. Venue was cold and would benefit from extra heating to work alongside the radiators.
Update: Went back recently, 11 months after the review below. I’d given it 5 stars and was incredibly impressed! Sadly 11 months later that wasn’t the case. We had starters, mine was a chorizo scotch egg, which was massively under seasoned. It had no flavour at all, just texture. The saddest part was the chicken roast. All the seasoning seemed to have gone into the chicken in the form of way too much salt. I ate as much as i could but left needing pints of water. It was sad and very underwhelming. I don’t like leaving negative reviews but I also don’t like seeing somewhere that has been great, slip into the world of mediocre. It could have been a bad day, it was an unseasonably hot day, but on this occasion, the balance was off. Sad but recoverable. Hope to be back soon. Original Review: I love a roast dinner. I mean I LOVE a roast dinner… The Plough and Harrow is the best pub roast. Pure and simple. Book in advance to avoid disappointment. Right from the starters… which were beautifully presented & flavourful, the tone was set. We had the Welsh lamb & the pork. Both meats just melted & the flavour was incredible! Stunning roast potatoes & a special shout out to the parsnips with a little magic twist. The stuffing, the crackling, the veg… it’s the complete package. If you’re in South Wales, this is the place to go for a Sunday roast. If you’re not in South Wales, go. My only negative critique is on the dessert side of things: the base of the Lemon Meringue tart was disappointing. While the lemon meringue had that balance of sweet and tangy, the base was tough & somewhere between cardboard and plastic & sadly ruins a really nice dessert. However… the clotted fudge ice cream is a must! The pub itself is light, fresh & inviting. The staff were lovely, friendly & very patient with my overly excited and indecisive partner. Though with a menu that is simply mouth watering, it’s hard to be decisive. We are really looking forward to going back.
Rated as a 4* but it’s really a 3.5. Our food didn’t quite live up to the high expectations that we had for the Plough and Harrow. Some of the food was really good, but other dishes were a little disappointing and I could personally have cooked better at home. (Eg the curried leg of lamb - the meat was slightly dry, the curry sauce was too thick and sparse to counter the meat and the curry flavour didn’t seem to have penetrated into the lamb - suggesting that it hadn’t been marinated for long enough. Oh and the accompanying onion bhajis were pretty rubbish!) Good dishes were things like the scotch egg starter and the Japanese themed lamb. The service was ok, pretty good from most members of the waiting staff. A little slow for staff to return to take dessert orders which was unsurprising as we were tucked out of the way, but slightly annoying as we had kids who needed to get home to bed. Overall, I wouldn’t be expecting the best food on the Gower, I think there are a few places we’re you can get something better. But it’s worth a visit and the atmosphere and buzz is good.
Nice little pub with an excellent menu. I have the scotch eggs are start and my wife has the arancini follow by by the salmon and the duck. Both excellent.
I have not been to this place in so long, that I am sure the last time I visited it was not as fancy as it felt this time. I was alittle confused because the food was so tasty, and felt so upmarket. Yet we had shouting locals sat at the bar as if it was still the traditional drinkers/workermans type pub. The prices can be alittle off putting for what you get, especially when you only get 1 Confit Potato. My feedback would be there they should provide more for the price. This didn't bother me too much, because the food was honestly sublime! The only thing that really did bother me and causes the 4/5 star was the lack of parking.
