Arabella's Eatery in Powys

I had a flat white and an espresso here, both of which I found a bit underwhelming. Firstly, the espresso had absolutely no crema. It seems like they were using very old beans. It tasted extremely bitter to the point of being undrinkable. Sadly, the flat white was not far behind. Too much air was added to the milk, leaving big bubbles in it as opposed to microfoam. I don't think the barista had much training on using the machine (though, hopefully, she will improve over time!)

Fabulously fresh food for brunch and lunch plus amazing cakes. All the old favourites plus some innovative artisan additions. Fantastic focaccia and stunning sourdough sandwiches alongside traditional, huge breakfast muffin. Good vegetarian and vegan choices as well.

Sat at a filthy table next to a window full of flies and other detritus. Paid £26 for 2 weak teas and 2 average eggs Benedict which took forever to arrive. Toilet didn’t have any hand towels or dryer. Staff were friendly but were wearing dirty leggings which isn’t a good look in a food outlet.

Popped in on a rainy morning to a friendly welcome and an amazing array of home made cakes. Great lunch menu (but we were too full), great coffee and dog friendly too… very happy indeed

Arrived on a scorching hot day with the dog for brunch as we were visiting the area. Decided to sit outside in the shade, dog water available and when we went into order we were offered a doggy biscuit for the hound! Two locally sourced full English breakfasts, orange juice and americano coffee went down well. The staff were attentive and polite, the toilets were lovely. Overall I’m hard to please but would recommend!

This was a great find. The girls were super friendly, warm and welcoming, as was Oatie the puppy! The home made beans on toast was scrummy and felt healthy compared to my boyfriends eggs royal! Coffee was great too (oat flat white, I find some places use not so tasty oat milk) Thank you for a lovely breaky!

On a glorious sunny May day, stopped for lunch. Had Eggs Benedict which I would strongly recommend, and as for their coffee, well, I do not know where it comes from, but it was the best coffee I have had in ages. Those who think that chain coffee shops serve coffee need to come here to find out what it REALLY tastes like. Cheerful service, this petite cafe does a great job with a sensible and appealing menu.

A shame - seems like the place has real potential. Ordered a hot chocolate - was luke warm, no marshmallows available as they normally have them hand made. Flat white grim. Staff left menus and previous customer’s cutlery / cups on our table for whole visit. Baked goods looked delicious but barista/ service needs improving! Disappointing for a £10 spend.

Fab little cafe with fantastic cakes made on the premises. I had an Easter cake consisting of a sugary croissant 'cup' filled with chocolate cream topped with mini eggs. Really distinctive & very tasty.

Came to cafe especially for lunch but was really disappointed by the whole experience.The soup we ordered was a small portion and not very tasty -we had to wait a rediculous amount of time for it to arrive with no apology,Sausage rolls uncovered and not in chiller not acceptable The girls behind the counter seemed uninterested and more concerned with their mobile phones not telling customers there was space upstairs and a few walked out as a result. Could be good but needed someone in charge to oversee it

Lovely cute cafe with a exciting menu and incredible food. Slightly more than you may ordinarily pay for breakfast but absolutely worth it. The chef here is a talent!

Delicious coffee and cake, a pleasant ambience and friendly staff. We came back for lunch, toasted sandwiches, very good indeed, fresh ingredients and very tasty

A small menu, but who's worrying when it's good ? I had the "smashed peas on sourdough" and it was the best thing I'd had for an age. Plus good tea. Nice to sit outside as well (before the next heavy downpour arrived....). Thanks.

A new eatery in Brecon. The Whole experience was excellent. Knowledgeable and attentive staff without being overbearing. Fabulous food (especially the home made sausage). We will definitely be returning in the very near future
