Café in the National Library of Wales. A bit pricey - but otherwise a good hot chocolate and cake.

This is the best charging stop in the UK. Free parking while you charge. 50p/kWh for a rapid charger. The Fuuse App works easily. Great value food in a clean restaurant and free entry to the National Library of Wales. This is the future of EV charging. If only all charging stops could be like this.

I had both lunch and a coffee/cake there. The lunch - vegetarian quiche, salad and chips - was excellent value, although not on display (only a meat lasagne was visible, and there was no menu posted, apart from non-existent paninis!). The coffee and cake were also good, though less exceptional value. Chilled water is freely available.

Beautiful and historic location, but such a poor selection of food and drink. Coffee tastes sour, and lack of freshly made food.

Friendly staff, fantastic vibe, delicious lunch. The cafe is spacious and has quite a few tables. I had to do some work on my laptop and spent nearly the whole day there. There are plugs near some of the tables and you can enjoy a breath taking view. This cafe is a great addition to the Library.

Popped to the library as the weather was very wet. Found the restaurant on the lower floor which had a good selection of cakes at a reasonable price. 2 50 for scone jam cream 1 50 for home made cake.

I enjoyed my visit to this cafe couldn't believe that the coffee was so reasonable priced and the food looked lovely

I was at the library for a week researching my family tree and so had several meals and snacks here across the week. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and the food was consistently good across the week. The salads were very varied and plentiful and the hot food was really good - their roast dinner was really tasty and they had some very scrumptious desserts to tempt you. Prices were really reasonable and I would happily return and recommend.

As on previous visits, the staff are pleasant and helpful. We opted for the breakfast which was hot and tasty with decent portions but not over-facing. The drinks are made by the customer, so always to their taste. Whilst not a cheap eat, the prices are certainly competitive and the café is roomy and comfortable.

We returned to the café on our next visit to the Library and had a snack in the morning and a meal for lunch. As always, there is plenty of choice and the staff are vey helpful and accommodating. As it was St David's Day there was a choice of different Cawl dishes and I have to say that both my husband and myself, although we had different versions of the Cawl found it to be really tasty and satisfying. With a range to suit many palates, we really enjoy eating here as it is always clean, relaxed and great value for money whilst offering an excellent range of good quality dishes. The harpist was a special treat on St David's Day and we will no doubt find an excuse to return when we visit Wales again in September.

We needed a quick meal, so we ate pre-prepared sandwiches and crisps in this cafeteria. It worked well for this purpose. Very nice staff. Food not great, but it's a cafeteria.

We visited on a Saturday lunchtime when the cafe was quiet - it is much busier during the week when staff and visiting students are working in the Library. There is a good range of sandwiches, panini, salads and hot meals. There are some good freshly made cakes too, including Welsh cakes.

We were at the library all day and had breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea here. We had half an hour before our tour in the morning and had bacon sandwiches and tea - really enjoyable and reasonably priced. So having had a successful breakfast, we returned at lunchtime and I had a salad whilst my husband had a pasta dish. The portions were huge and the food tasty. My husband found the pasta did not have quite enough sauce but what he had was very good; my salad however (choose your own) was brilliant and I was very pleased. Finally we returned for an afternoon cup of tea and a cake; again really enjoyable and reasonably priced. What we did notice was that both staff and visitors ate here and staff eating at an in house establishment is usually a good sign. There was also plenty of cold water available and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Whenever I feel a faint gleam of hope that tomorrow will bring once more the toothsome semblance of an as unyet fulfilled chance to enjoy prandial delection I say ‘Forthwith forthwith’ but yet a sudden rush of as if barely glimpsed the edges of reality. Or as Stephen Spender once said ‘ The hedges of drear- ’!! I write this as an appreciation of the staff of Baravin for allowing our small but earnest troop of amateur players to put on an impromptu performance of ‘The Crazy Gang, professional footballing at Wimbledon football club’ The audience of happy revellers looked up from their shimmering pizzas and sombre steaks in apt appreciation Wonderous days

The dishes we received were very hit and miss in terms of quality and size. Notably, the prawn starter was very disappointing with only 4 prawns for £8.95!!!! What a let down. Didn’t complain, just won’t come back.

Went for Sunday lunch yesterday had the turkey as the beef is always rare wish they would cook it for a bit longer fet sick of turkey every time we go . Bit disappointed with the Sunday roast some of the roast potatoes weren't cooked and were still hard the sausage in bacon was very under cooked and Yorkshire pudding wasn't cooked properly we noticed alot of customers had left roast potatoes... the sausage in bacon and the Yorkshire pudding all what I have mentioned . Maybe a few more options regarding the meat for a farm restaurant you'd think more options would be available. It's a beautiful restaurant beautiful surroundings but Sunday roast needs to be improved and cooked better .

Very sad to hear what has happened to this lovely cafe. Visited twice earlier in the year while on holiday. First visit arrived on the train and second visit by car as we'd enjoyed the food, friendly atmosphere and the setting so much. Very disappointed in The Vale of Rheidols decision.
