Stunning views but very disappointed with the burger bar.After hearing many outstanding reviews ive payed the bar a few visits. The burgers were chirpily made and weren't up to a great standard at all, Out of the three times i visited they only had a supply of chips once, Very disappointing for the littler ones.

Great place to go for a good (if not easy) walk. Has a cafe on the top to get a coffee on windy days.

Come to Caerphilly Mountain.. Whether rain or shine, a nice afternoon out in South Wales, and it's the highest peak in the South Wales basin (I think..?) and you can eat burgers on top of the Mountain whilst watching traffic driving past.. On a sunny day there are views as far away as up the valleys, and over to Somerset... More
