Baravin in Ceredigion

What an amazing dinner I just had here! Everything cooked beautifully and....OMG the crispy cockles were to die for....incredible, as was the blackberry panna cotta. V friendly staff. Thank goodness we came in! Thanks all

What a lucky find this amazing place was. Great, reasonably-priced food, excellent cocktails and the friendliest staff you could ever imagine. Highly recommended p.

There were 3 of us my husband had the special crab linguine, he loved it, my son and I are wheat, onion & garlic intolerant so he had the carbonara with gf pasta and I had the gf fish and chips all was wonderful and the service was great. Just note they don’t do gf pizza at the moment.

This place does the best Fish and Chips we have ever had as a family. Staff are friendly place is clean and lovely! Mushy peas to die for!

pur avendo prenotato e con tavoli liberi ci hanno fatto accomodare al bancone. anche altre volte ci è capitato ma per scelta. in ogni caso, la posizione è centrale e non si è cenato male. servizio al banco ottimo da parte dei ragazzi.

Popped in for a coffee with my family, absolutely beautiful coffee, had an oatmilk Latte.

Tasty fish and chips eaten outside overlooking the sea.

Went to aberystwyth for a few days. This was probably the nicest looking restaurant with a good hygiene rating on the beach front. That's where the positives end. The food is overpriced and bland. We ordered the minute steak pink which came with fries. No steak sauce with the meal and still overcooked. Burger was OK. We had reserved for a breakfast a few days later and cancelled.

Absolutely gorgeous! The food is delicious and the staff are always so welcoming and friendly! Cocktails and drinks are delicious. Good atmosphere too

Delicious food, warm welcome and a view over the sea / delicious food, warm welcome and a view over the sea👏👏👍

If it wasn’t for the talent of the back of house, the front of house children would see this establishment shut its doors in 5 mins. Management seem to be blinded by the fact that this is the only restaurant serving half decent food in Aberystwyth.

Excellent service, very tasty fish & chips, and the price was great as well!

After having tried a couple well reviewed places in Aberystwyth (Antalya, Medina, the Bulgarian Restaurant, Istanbul Kebab) I had basically lost all hope and believed I had to resort to McDonalds for a “decent” hot meal here. Thankfully Baravin changed all of that, I ate here with a table of 6 and everyone’s food was delicious, pizza, steak, burgers, sea bass, antepaste even the fish and chips! The best place in town and one of the best restaurants in the area, I will totally recommend. Staff was great too the young blonde waitress was very good accommodating for one of our friends special requirements.

Nice place, good prices. Watch out for seagulls if you eat outside!!

Very disappointed, the internet said dog friendly so we booked 2 weeks in advance online with a note referring to our dogs! Reconfirmed the week before then 4 hours before reservation was telephoned to say they did not take dogs🤦‍♀️

Huge portion sizes and decent grub. Lovely staff. Good prices. Great view! I had the vegan burger, largely as it was the only thing labelled vegan. There were other things that may have been vegan and/or vegetarian but the menu doesn’t state so on anything.

I was about to go in but saw they were cashless, no way I'm encouraging that! Shame.

Some of the best staff on the planet. Cracking place.

Staff continued conversation whilst we awaited admittance

Nice food and drink, well catered for a large group. Vegan options also available

Great lunchtime snack warm friendly staff

Doesn't serve food until after 12 on Sundays, which is a bit rubbish if you're a visitor for the weekend. Very limited menu available in the mornings. Atmosphere was okay, but lots of older groups utilising it for coffee - feels more of a 'usual meetup' place in this respect rather than a visitor cafe.

Despite the reviews. NOT dog-friendly!!

This is a very nice place to sit out doors next to the sea watching people past bye. A few beers and chill out. In the sunshine. Just chill go with the flow.

Lovely restaurant and amazing food.The menu is small but we all found food we liked.Mum had pasta and we asked for a small portion lovely to see they only charged for a child's portion.The fish& chips was large so be prepared but lovely.

Really nice spot by the sea, staff was real nice and friendly

We popped in for a quick drink on our way to Pembrokeshire. It was a really friendly place and we felt very welcome.

Couldn’t ask for better service - everyone was friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in the door. The food was also excellent, and the views across the bay were lovely!

Seaside eatery with a great menu and a wonderful view.

My sons birthday,9 of use had excellent meals,good service and atmosphere, the filleted sea bass was excellent.

Just in for coffee Americano lovely as always

Stopped for a lunch after a long drive. Staff wonderfully accommodating, atmosphere great and the food was divine (we had minute steaks, a kids pizza and flatbread & hummus).

I had a really tasty vegan dinner and despite it being a grey rainy Monday evening the staff were friendly and attentive and food came through quickly. 5*

Well priced, great location and friendly staff. Highly reccomend, would return!

Gareth is a great host - the food was lovely - well at least my mushroom ragu was - the wine was great but overall it made me feel relaxed and welcome

Called in with grandchildren and daughter while they were on a visit to us, pleasant staff and the menu sounded lovely although slightly more expensive than usual, however we ordered the pizza which we shared which was made to order and was absolutely delicious, a child's meal which was obviously very tasty as it was devoured and a caesar salad which was one of the tastiest I've ever had so although a more expensive lunch than I'd usually do with them it was gorgeous and no waste so all in all lovely.

Delicious pizza and pasta, very friendly service and helpful too

We were lucky to get a table for a late lunch. Quick and friendly service from Izzy with water supplied without us asking which I always appreciate. I had a superb vegan burger (£15) with a lovely smoky sauce. The chips were nothing special but my daughter's buffalo mozzarella pizza (£10.50) was totally perfect and authentic with - thin, with a great sauce and not overloaded with cheese.

Food, service and prices excellent. Really relaxed atmosphere even though fully booked both nights we eat there. Food was cooked to order, crispy pizza, local ingredients. Can highly recommend but do make sure you book as walk ins are at a premium.

Contrary to reviews they don't allow dogs (phoned February 2024)

Servers were standoffish and unprofessional Ordered a pizza and they didn’t put any cheese on it, I think they were going for half a ball of mozzarella for a large pizza which is just a joke.

Lovely greeting, super fast service and the food was delicious!! Not more to be said really. Definitely recommend it! Many thanks

Absolute gem of a place 1 min walk from our hotel, lovely Welsh speaking staff fish and chips to die for especially the mushy peas.

Visited this restaurant twice for breakfast during a stay in Aberystwyth and each time the food was first rate, and the staff were friendly, attentive and efficient. So glad we tried the place and would certainly recommend without hesitation.

Booked a table for 4 people. Lovely welcome as usual from Gareth and the staff. Ordered Tortilla Chips, Charcuterie and Pigs in Blankets as starters. The tortilla chips were freshly made and came with guacamole, sour cream and salsa, the charcuterie was huge and the pigs in blankets were amazing. We all opted for the minute steak with chips. A good sized steak and lovely tasty chips. A lovely meal and drinks and such a warm welcome from the staff as usual. Diolch Gareth a'r tim am y croeso.

Great food, with great views. Friendly staff, happy to have found a new spot.

The best place to eat in Aberystwyth. Hands down.

Ate here with a family group of 12. Had to pre order which meant we missed out on the specials. Unfortunately the menu we had was very basic & uninteresting. Who wants to pay £15 for fish x chips & a drink. Carbonara served with a breast of chicken ?? On the other hand the service was good, food was hot & the place had a good atmosphere.

I had such a good lunch here. I sat inside as it was a bit windy. I enjoyed the food and the service was friendly and quick.

Great atmosphere, great view and nice friendly staff.

Food was perfect, freshly made and full of flavour. If your in aberystwyth you've got to try it.

Great food. Wonderful polite efficient staff. Thoroughly recommend

Great bar, great food, great views. And the company wasn't bad either. We'll be back!

Dim ond cwpl o ddiodydd naethon ni gael.

The staff were calm, friendly and efficient. The food was beautifully cooked and the atmosphere happy and relaxed. Excellent all round.

Loved this place, great atmosphere! Visited on 23.09.23. Beautiful restaurant, with great outdoor seating! Every staff member I came into contact with was super friendly and helpful- an example was when I wasn't sure about the house red and the gentleman at the bar let me taste- can confirm 2 glasses later it was a lovely, light and fruity red! Unfortunately, kitchen was closing at 2.30pm so weren't able to try the food.. Great work, Baravin team- diolch yn fawr!x

Stopped in as a rest stop.. had a coffee.. friendly staff n nice coffee with a brownie.

Lovely seaside bar / bistro. Gorgeous food with a great view of the sea. Plenty of options on the menu . Staff were really friendly

Nice place for coffee on a stormy wet morning. Great view of the churning sea. Very polite helpful staff. Can't comment on food because I didn't eat. Coffee lovely.

Very friendly good service and coffe and food were very good and value for money. Grey view of the sea and everything was just how you would want, clean friendly and pizza was very good.

Not a place for kids saw some questionable behaviour

Not child friendly pulled other customers before use to say maybe in one hour I will be taking this matter as far as I can

Perfect place. Really good service.

Lovely carbonate lunch, nice people.

After walking around for ages trying to find somewhere to have a nice meal we came across this place, the lovely girls who greeted and served us were really welcoming. Our meals were very tasty and hot. Highly recommend this place.

very nice place and good service

Was great. Food was excellent and so were the staff. We had burgers and they were spot on. Place was busy, which is always a good sign, and it's right on the beach. Would recommend.

Originally called in for a coffee whilst on holiday! Later joined by family and decided to stay for lunch. Fantastic food, beautifully cooked and served. Great selection of drinks and friendly customer service. Highly recommended!

Lovely views, a convenient location, fast service, and excellent food! I visited for lunch two days in a row during my stay in town because of how impressed I was with the quality of the meals and their generous portions. My favorite dish I had here was the wild mushroom ragu, which was incredibly rich and savory!

Nice place to dine, I like the full length mirror as you turn the corner to the w.c. I nearly said hello to myself a couple of times.

Very impressive. Simple food, done brilliantly. Super service and attention to detail. Very enjoyable lunch, would definitely go again. Thanks to all the staff.

As guests of friends we did not know what to expect except their recommendation. We were absolutely not disappointed Baravin was a great relaxed place to dine, the staff were friendly, engaging and super efficient. It was graduation week in Aber so the restaurant was full, good job the table was pre-booked. Food was very good with decent portion sizes. I would say casual dining and this with the ambiance etc made it a special evening.

Tasty good. Good no fuss gluten free options. Good service. All round it was a lovely night for a big family get together.

Late afternoon meal with 2 adults 2 children under 5. Quick service and good food and a good location on the prom near the pier. Added bonus of the majority of staff speaking Welsh and a Welsh menu. Ardderchog. Would recommend if in the area.

Amazing friendly service. The BEST Bloody Mary! Made by Hannah. Lovely staff, quality food. A must visit place

Lovely and welcoming staff who were very patient with our restless children. Excellent value for money too.

Lovely food with a great selection of beers. Child friendly.

Been several times, most recently for a brunch earlier this week. Staff always friendly and welcoming. Not a huge menu choice but everything we’ve eaten has been lovely and my brunch was no exception. Located on the promenade, most tables have a sea view. Consistently...

Fabulous dinner for one. What a setting! Great service, fantastic food (especially crispy cockles) and lovely beer.

Great food and they do gluten free options (just not on the menu). Cocktails were great too! We went as a large group and the service was great. Love the location and atmosphere

Have always wanted to try this place -shame they do the stupid cashless thing:- they will learn. t was busy but we got the last table and then we had quite a wait. We gave the waitress a little nudge and then we heard her...

Nice venue and good service but the food was really disappointing. Three of us ordered the vegan burger which was bland, dull and expensive. There is no excuse these days to make poor vegan food, especially something as simple as a burger.

Loved this place, food was great, staff were really friendly and helpful. Nice relaxed atmosphere with great views. I had the beef salad which was delicious.

Just had a couple of cocktails outside the bs. Nice drinks but can't comment on anything else.

We ate here twice and had great service from Gareth. Excellent location with a view of the sea and the sunset. Food was good and the place had a nice vibe. We had the Baravin Burger, Ragu, Fish Sandwich and an excellent starter of Ham...

Someone who I presume is in charge was speaking very aggressively to their staff which made us really uncomfortable. Food was banging though and the waitress we had was an absolute delight.

Had the pleasure of eating here tonight. Excellent food and superb service from the sraff

Drinving along the seafront looking for a place to eat checked this place out on trip advisor. Managed to park nearby in and hour. Decided as it was just noon to have brunch, a good choice. We both had scambled eggs and bacon with crushed...

Had a lovely drink on the terrace .Staff were friendly and helpful.The wine was good and the view of the bay is excellent.

We visited Baravin on Friday 7th July after seeing the overwhelmingly positive reviews on Google. We had the poached eggs and bacon on sourdough toast, scrambled eggs and smoked salmon and smashed avocado on sourdough toast, Fish & Chips with Mushy Peas and a Fish Burger with Chips. All the dishes were flavoursome and delicious. Though their price was higher than average, the quality was definitely above average. Coupled with the excellent location with a view over the waterfront and the good service, Baravin is a great place to eat! For drinks we had lemonade, sparkling water, Chai Latte and an Americano. The coffees were very good as well!!

Great location, service was good, food was below average. Decided to go for the cheeseburger, if you like your burgers tough and overcooked then this is the place for you. Very disappointing.

First went here for morning coffee and came back on another day for lunch. Lovely mushroom and ham starter. We didn't manage to finish the pizza but they boxed it up for us to take away. Payment is by card only. Lovely views.

Nice place, expensive but the food was lovely.

Lle arbennig, enwedig ar ddiwrnod braf yn edrych dros y môr.

I have been to Baravin a few times now and always enjoyed it. The food is very good - I had pasta today with a wild mushroom Ragu - which was splendid. The staff were attentive and friendly and the view across the prom to...

Friendly staff nice food. Really nice cold cider....so good I had another. Would go back. Lots of motorcyclists in .made everyone welcome.

Best Caesar salad I've ever had!!! So so good. Staff lovely and helpful, highly recommended

Great location & fabulous food. Friendly staff.

Lovely breakfast on our first visit. Unfortunately doesn't open until 10am so we ended up eating at the promenade cafe when we were there earlier than 10am
