Chartists 1770 in Powys

Really enjoyed our lunch at Chartists 1770. I had the wild mushrooms on sourdough bread with a side order of homemade chips. My son and his friend had a big plate of ham and eggs that they polished off in double quick time. My husband had fish and chips which had a really nice crispy batter. For desert the boys had homemade ice cream that came in a range of flavours and my husband and I had Gabi's lemon and pear desert that was divine - definitely award-winning. Highly recommend.

Went here for my partners birthday meal and it was perfect! The braised leeks were lovely and my boyfriend had the steak which he said was great. The staff were also really helpful with me being a veggie which is always nice. Would definitely come back again - thank you :)

Booked for Sunday lunch as we were staying locally, 4 adults, 1 older child. I asked for the Lamb dinner but asked for the rump to be well cooked through, when it appeared it was still bleeding, as was another lamb rump on the table we’d asked to be cooked through, roast potatoes, not very roasted, some still hard in the centre, vegetables were the nicest part although could have done with a little longer cooking, I don’t mind my vegetables having a bite but these were almost uncooked in the centre. Gravy was watery and lacked flavour, 2 friends had beef which was served ok. My daughter had sausage and chips from the child’s menu, to be honest, we all wished we’d have had the same as her! The place lacked atmosphere and felt quite cold and un-inviting, when you then add the prices into the equation it’s not really worth it, we’ve had nicer meals at pubs, much nicer! I took a trip to the ladies room, clearly hadn’t been cleaned from the evening before, overflowing sanitary bin, faecal matter on the toilet seat, no toilet roll. Staff seemed disinterested, didn’t interact with customers other than taking the order. I wouldn’t recommend and I definitely wouldn’t return.

The food was delicious, it was cooked to perfection by the team, the staff very attentive and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will be back. Excellent service, well done.

The historic building has been stripped of all character. It is now a totally anodyne place, with a corporate feel. The food was mediocre, but the menu lived up to the historic credentials, being pitched about 20 years in the past. As vegetarians, we would not go there again. We were, at best, tolerated, but not understood, and certainly not embraced as a C21st growing population with an eye towards sustainability.

A brilliant casual fine dining experience! Me and my girlfriend visited Chartists 1770 for a intimate and romantic birthday meal and it did not disappoint. There was a great selection of wines and beers on offer and the food menu definitely got our mouths watering. We both ordered mains dishes only but we were treated to some lovely warm homemade bread to begin with and then some incredible mussels in a delicious sauce. Lastly our mains arrived and the venison was cooked beautifully, along with the crumbly pastry of the mushroom pie and some incredibly tasty veg to go alongside. They truly were dishes to die for!

We have visited the Chartists several times this year but on our kast visit on the 29th September I was very disappointed the meal was very bland hardly any seasoning on the dish

A treat to come here tonight for the end of our holidays. We had coffee & cake for eleven’s, cake & a pint later and then an evening meal. We had 3 courses plus complimentary sourdough larva bread & amuse Bouch. The food was sublime along with great service and very reasonable pricing. If you are in Llanidloes or near & you want a lovely gastronomic treat…try here, you will enjoy.

An excellent lunch break in the journey to Pembrokeshire

Great Value & Quality as always with friendly service

Always take friends and family here if they’re visiting. Consistently delicious, perfectly presented and with wonderful service. There’s always a good vegan or vegetarian option too.
