Coach and Horses in Powys

Highly recommend the tapas night at the coach and horses. The food was absolutely amazing, so many dishes to choose from and so so tasty. Staff there were so welcoming and friendly especially Donna who could not do enough for us, we even had a complementary dish brought out to us which was delicious. We will definitely be returning. Looking forward to trying the Italian night next xx

My sister entered a Facebook competition for a tapas night and won, was greeted and taken to our table, made to feel so welcome by all the staff especially Donna who was mixing with all the customers chatting away a very friendly lovely member of staff, the dishes were absolutely delicious and we will definitely be returning here a lovely friendly pub with fab service and fab food definitely recommend. A lovely touch to was the chef even adding a dish of roasted veg to go with the rest of our food. Thank you to all staff for such a lovely welcoming night.

Tried a couple of times but will not be hopeful of 3rd time lucky. The real ale was poorly kept and although we were told the food was excellent, it wasn't. Pity because the setting is excellent and the canalside garden superb.

We often travel to this pub in the summer months for a lovely walk along the canal and a stop off in the picturesque beer garden situated right next to the canal for a cold glass of cider. More recently we have been enjoying evening meals inside the pub where a cosy fire has been lit to take the chill off the winter air and creating a welcoming homely feel. The food served here is outstanding with an amazing selection of fresh fish dishes which are usually only found in coastal locations. Everything is beautifully presented and tastes amazing! The staff are all very friendly and cannot do enough for you always willing to go that extra mile to ensure you have a pleasant experience. The Coach & Horses is a pure gem and we cannot wait to visit again soon.

Excellent Thai themed evening. Wonderful food, set menu with loads of variety. So much food…and all of it was tasty..we needed a break before desert. Hope the prawn toast and chicken satay become menu regulars!

Very good experience on the Thai night, There were two menus (one for those that didn’t want Thai). We had the four course Thai menu which was superb and tasted very authentic. A spicy soup opener followed by a selection of appetisers (chicken satay skewers were delicious, as were the king prawns). 4 dishes made up the main course which were superb followed by a deep fried banana and coconut cream desert. A lot of great food for the £27 p/h cover. Excellent value for the times we’re in.

Staff were very friendly and helpful from the outset!! Food was AMAZING!! Thank you for a lovely evening and keep up the amazing work!! Will definitely return!!

Team had misplaced our booking, not a good start! Food very disappointing, best meal over our Christmas period was a home cooked one! Just received £100 parking fine for parking in pub car park in order to drop off and pick up 92 year old mother! Will not be going again

We turned up today looking a bit bedraggled after a very wet walk along the canal but were greeted warmly and shown to a table despite not having booked and with an equally wet dog in tow! Both the landlady and waitress were very friendly and welcoming and the food was lovely and reasonably priced. I had the seafood chowder which was delicious, and my sons had the pork belly special and the fish and chips - good sized portions for the price. We will definitely return when in the area again.

We are regulars for family lunch when down from London. Always great hospitality and cooking. Should have written earlier, but today's lunch was just exceptional. "Fish and chips" understates the tempuraresque sole with Sean's tartare sauce. But son and I had best ever fresh "seafood chowder" - a gourmet version of the New England version = spoiler alert.

Very disappointed with some of the plates of food served last night. Three out of the six of us ordered the special chowder. Unfortunately, there was nothing special about it. I would not serve a dish like that in my own home. It looked as though it had been frozen, defrosted, reheated and placed under a heat lamp. A member of staff informed us that it always looks like that. Nobody around the table recognised it as chowder. We were offered to order a different dish.

Delicious food ✔️ Huge portions ✔️ Friendly service ✔️ Fresh seafood options ✔️ Well priced ✔️ Dog friendly ✔️ Warm and cosy after a lovely walk ✔️ Quick attentive service ✔️ Room for dessert ❌ Top top marks to Shaun and his team (thank you Alex!) for a super experience we will recommend people travel for. Just brilliant. We WILL be back!

We met friends last Saturday for dinner and had great fish (turbot) and our friends thoroughly enjoyed their Katsu chicken. There was a great atmosphere and we enjoyed great service

I can't speak highly enough of our experience at the Coach and Horses on Thurs 5th October. We were on the canal and neither of us has a new-fangled smart phone so we called in to check on availability, booking, etc.. The staff were taking a break but were very quick to book us a table for an hour later. We took ourselves off for a walk before returning. Our orders were taken promptly by a waitress who was very attentive throughout our meal. The menu was varied and mouth-watering - I'd have enjoyed anything on it! We opted for the pork steak with leaks and mustard and the beef and ale open-topped pie. The food arrived quickly (which is what canal travellers often need, as they are on a schedule, though we'd tied up for the night). All was piping hot and an extra bowl of chips arrived. The portions were very generous, though we ate everything on our plates except the pattern! Beer was excellent and there was no music that drowns conversation in so many pubs these days. All around us were also clearly enjoying their food, the prices were very reasonable and the staff friendly and helpful. I just wish the Coach and Horses was nearer to where we live (Devon) as it's a bit of a drive from here for an evening out! Thanks very much!

Excellent Sunday Lunch .. excellent customer service .. family all had starters , mains and dessert.. The beef and turkey was amazing .. thank you

Food was amazing! Family of 6 had 3 courses and all meals were delicious.. service and welcome was great…will definitely return 👌

I’ve been here for lunch a few times and used to recommend it but recently had such a bad experience I doubt I will ever go back. The food was terrible - very disappointing fish and chips. The staff were dismissive and rude. And to top it off the parking system wasn’t working and we’ve been fined. The pub hasn’t helped at all and claims it’s nothing to do with them. Give this place a miss

A mate and I stayed over the weekend to do some hills. We had a great stay the landlady and landlord we absolutely brilliant nothing was to much trouble. The girls who make up the staff were both friendly and professional and extremely helpful and attentive. The landlord is also the chef and the standard and quality of the food is excellent whilst he is busy in the kitchen he will always between service pop out and come and say hello his wife is also extremely busy taking care of front of house, chatting to guests and making sure everyone is happy, it was an absolute pleasure to stay , I have stayed in a few places in the area over the years and I can say the welcome and hospitality is truly both warming and genuine. I will most definitely be staying again

We rang to book an hour before and although it was extremely busy they fitted us in and we were served quite quickly. Young waitress was lovely. We were asked three times if we were enjoying our meal which was really nice. Portions were really big so I couldn't finish my food but it was lovely. Will be back.

Camping in wales last week and booked a Sunday lunch at this pub. It was very busy in there but the service was brilliant. The roast was really lovely and filling and the staff were extremely friendly too

We were greeted with a warm welcome and the meal was absolutely outstanding. Thank you once again for such a lovely stay. We will be visiting again soon! Hannah and Antony.

Went here on the 17th May firstly, the day we were allowed to go inside to eat. It was so exciting to do something normal again. The staff and the food we’re just brilliant. We had the wild sea bass for 2 people. Stunning. We were so impressed we booked to go back with friends on the Friday. We all went for the fish dishes as this place have an extensive menu with many fish dishes on offer. Turbot, sea bass, fish platters with lobster. Wow! Thanks to Donna and the team. This place also has a brilliant deli too. Just wished we lived closer. All the best and we hope 2021 is a better year for you, you deserve it

Popped in for a light lunch, we had dressed crab and the garlic mushroom tartlet and a side of sweet potato fries. Service is as you would expect in these difficult times, very pleasant staff and was happy to wait. Look forward to coming back and having few more drinks and enjoy the view, had school run to do so only has limited time.

Little bit disappointed, was overcharged for two meals instead of one. My partner had to go back twice to get the matter resolved, if I hadn’t checked (and checked again) it would have been missed. Waiter put chips down on a bump in the table and so when I went to pick them up the bowl tipped and they all fell on the floor! Setting is nice and the garlic bread made up for it!

Just very poor in general, such a strange set up. As you enter, you walk through a little deli area, which is nice....then there’s a random TV playing with people watching and the restaurant area just beyond that. Service was OK, but food was poor in every sense. Badly cooked - very amateur. Considering the area the Coach & Horses are located, they really need to improve drastically in order to compete with neighboring restaurants in Crickhowell & Talybont.Wound not recommend for a meal, useful for a drink in the summer in their beer garden in front of the river, but that’s about it. A real shame.

We travelled July 2019 before the Covid hit us. We were on a 5 week canal holiday, from NZ, and this was to be our last canal on the journey. The Coach & Horses was a short walk from our mooring spot and was extremely busy on a warm sunny evening, and a Sunday at that. We had no trouble acquiring an outside table and were quickly served with delicious meals and drinks. which we enjoyed whilst watching the families of kids paling in the play area across the road. The staff were busy but really friendly and didn't seem phased by the throng of patrons. If I could have a chance I would certainly come back for another great meal at this lovely country pub.

Reserved a Sunday lunch for 3 for 1.00pm. Arrived early but our table was ready. Two roast beef dinners and Haddock. Beef , delicious and plentiful , fish cooked just right and both came with a variety of vegetables , and plenty of them. Their salted caramel cheese cake was the perfect desert .Simply put , an excellent meal. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and our meals came in plenty of time. All necessary Covid requirements were strictly adhered to , the Inn felt very safe. Will 100% be back when next near the area , if not , definitely in the summer to enjoy the local countryside and another meal.

Wonderful service and fantastic food. Very warm and welcoming staff with a homely and comfortable atmosphere. Our second time visiting was just as lovely as our first; we’ll definitely be back!

My boyfriend and I went for food on 25th September. We decided to both have the "special" of monkfish, with patatas bravas and greens. It came out and we were disappointed with the presentation, to start with. The monkfish was overcooked. The "patatas bravas" appeared to be deep fried potato cubes with a slight sprinkling of paprika, which tasted like they came from Aldi frozen food section. The "greens" consisted of 3 tiny, overcooked asparagus sprigs. We politely asked the waitress for more greens but she never came back. This terrible meal cost almost £18 per head. We don't mind paying a lot of money for food but for the quality if this meal, they should have charged no more than £5. We will NEVER return which is a shame.

We popped in for lunch I had the fish and chips and my wife had the garlic mushrooms and a crab cocktail. The portions were fantastic and the food tasted and looked beautiful. Also felt really safe as the COVID procedures they had in place were very good . Can’t wait to go back.

Excellent food in a safe and cosy atmosphere. Friendly staff. COVID precautions in place but they didn’t overwhelm the experience. Looking forward to the next visit.

This was one of our first nights out for six months and we were apprehensive. We needn’t have worried though as the arrangements made were excellent. The meal was beautifully prepared and cooked and tasted sublime. The Staff were busy but we’re very friendly and attentive. The steak was amazing and we will be back soon. Thank you

We stayed at a cottage nearby so came here most days for a coffee while out walking in the area, luckily the weather was very kind so were happy to sit outside - if you want to go inside you have to have food ( think it needs to be full meals not sandwiches or snacks) the beer garden outside is lovely and you can sit and have food and drink in there ( not drinks only though) its a bit confusing but hey ho it confusing times!!We booked a table for 4 people and our pup on a Monday night - friendly staff greeted us and service was quick and very efficient.I had Grey Mullet and it was absolutely delicious my other half had a wonderful succulent gammon steak, another meal was HUGE fish and chips.Clean plates alround.Only 1 pudding which was ginger sponge - my brother in law said is was gorgeous.It got pretty busy while we were in there so think booking is advisable.Plenty of good wine and beer and a very reasonable bill at the end of it.We will definitely go back when we holiday in LLangynidr next year.Thank you

Recently visited with family waited over an hour for our order to be taken. Food arrived the order was wrong also tried to charge us for food we didn’t have! Staff abrupt and rude. Much better places to eat in the area!!

If you are looking for a warm and friendly welcome to take your mind of the current climate then this is not the place for you. We arrived with the Welsh government recommended four households and was immediately told it had to be two households, when asked since when as we had not been told this on booking we were met with “do you not watch the news” and turned away. I understand that some places may have their own rules but these surely would need to be told before arriving or on booking, not to be told at the door that we needed to watch the news when in fact the owners themselves should be watching the news. Haven’t eaten at this establishment and don’t think we ever will, couldn’t not recommend enough.

Managed to get a booking for a table over BH weekend, nicely put together space and restaurant and able to adhere to COVID restrictions. Straightforward menus and well presented and tasty food. Had the salmon and clam spaghetti and steak between us, nice and nice cold draught cider.

Lovely welcome and seriously good seafood chowderAfter calling round pretty much all of the Crickhowell pubs, I found this place on trip advisor. They managed to squeeze me and the dog in for an early doors table, which was great considering it was a bank holiday weekend. The dog was made such a fuss of and bribed with lots of treats.The seafood chowder was just perfect on a cold rainy day, and was washed down with a pint of local ale.I have one regret... I hoped to visit the deli the following day but after a fair few hours in the hills I just wanted to get on and start the long drive home. I will definitely be visiting again next time I’m in the area.

The Coach and Horses is an absolute gem. We went for an early dinner last Thursday. We shared the squid for starter, I had the port and Stilton beef and my fiancée had the seafood chowder, and we finished off by sharing the brownie and a coffee. The food was the best we've had all trip! The squid was very tasty, the beef was tender albeit well done/?slow cooked, and the chowder was delicious. As for the brownie, we're wishing we could go back for seconds! The service was very speedy and attentive, and the decor and ambience of the place was lovely. Thanks for a lovely dinner. We would highly recommend.

Called in today for a stop to stretch our legs after a lovely ride. Had the most unwelcome experience on entering. We were told to find a seat outside and someone would come to take our order. We sat for a considerable time were not served. The beer garden opposite was reserved for meals only, but was empty. What used to be a lovely pub has been ruined by the lack of customer service and the rude attitude of the staff. We have been to many outside spaces in the last few weeks and have had lovely social distancing service, but the attitude today was disgusting. The attitude of the car parking signs was also offensive.

We visited the deli next door for lunch, we were offered a grazing platter. It was so delicious, filled with cheeses, hams, breads, chutneys, olives and all sorts. really lovely staff, we even made a lovely pesto pasta with the left overs for dinner.

Beautiful setting , lovely staff. However only one veggie meal on menu and not available on arrival ,Advised chef could put together a veggie curry although when it came was not a curry but a ratatouille, food very average , very expensive starters,

Lovely pub serving great food! The portions are huge and everything was so tasty and well presented! I would highly recommend this pub! Fab atmosphere and the staff were fantastic!

Lunch yesterday was excellent and the pub is dealing really well with all the additional COVID precautions. Well done.

Nice pint of Rev James. Glass of sauvignon blanc sent back. Pinot grigio not a lot better (about the quality of a £3 bottle in the supermarket). Food OK but nothing special. Very limited gluten free options. Service was great.

Table of 4 booked during a extremely hot and humid evening and we were greeted by some very friendly but very hot staff, our starter order was 2x garlic mushrooms and 2 x salt and pepper squid and both meals were fantastic, mains was 3 steaks which were perfectly cooked and they even made some peppercorn sauce quickly for us even though we asked after steaks were brought out and a coach chicken which i think they either forgot the brie in the middle of it leaked out during cooked but the bacon and mushroom sauce it was served with more than made up for it, all staff looked like they were struggling in the heat but remained friendly helpful and very efficient, upon leaving they even open up the deli for me to have a look around and will certainly be back there so make some purchases.nice touch with a cold water tower and plenty of hand sanitizer stations around the pub.overall great evening great food and great service

Had a lovely evening meal here, both my partner and I had the tempura hake which was beautiful and came with plenty of chips and peas. Desserts were fantastic and well presented. Beautiful pub in lovely surroundings, looking forward to visiting again.

Had the special menu on a Tuesday and I was impressed with the choice.Starter was lovely. Main course bangers and mash was ok. I suspect it had been bought in. Dessert lovely! The staff were extremely helpful despite being under pressure. I’ll be going again Saturday with my wife and daughter!

Saw a few good reviews that this business had shared on social media, so thought would try them out and give them support! Wish I hadn’t bothered now, they are part of the eat out help out scheme, but this business decides what you can eat on that and gives you a small menu already reduced in price and I must add also portion size, they also don’t include soft drinks in this offer, and if your gluten-free please be very careful, their idea of gluten-free is that you can’t eat bread, pasta, nan bread and papadum, this is stated on their menu saying all other dishes are gluten-free! But they have scampi, battered cod, onion rings, and chips on their menu non are gluten-free free! Also they have great difficulty in telling you what ingredients are in their foods for you to check! Any way we ordered the soup of the day carrot and coriander, garlic mushrooms and salt and pepper squid to start! Out came cauliflower soup with stale bread, garlic mushrooms on stale bread and one with out the bread for the gf member of our party, and 3 salt and pepper squid, very disappointed they forgot to put the garlic in the mushrooms, the salad on the side was all limp, and the soup wasn’t even carrot and coriander, it was all poor and not great in taste!Next we had the special £18 steak strips in a sauce with seasonal veg and chips, their burger @ £15 both not on the menu for the 50% off government scheme! Well the steak came out!! 6 slices of tough steak in a so called sauce and the seasonal veg was frozen peas!! that’s it £18 The burger was over cooked and dry very difficult to eat! Our gf could only have the gammon with no chips cause the Cook them in the same oil as scampi, and other gluten products, so the offered new potatoes, well they come out 3 potatoes cut in half very hard, dry and black, the gammon was very tough and salty. Out bill came to over £80 and I got to say it was one of the worst meals we have ever eaten for the money! So we certainly wouldn’t recommend there are much better pubs, just down the road from this place, so I suggest you just keep going and head to another.

Beautiful meal out at the coach and horses, first meal out since lockdown and it didn’t disappoint. Socially distanced tables & super clean throughout, sanitizer stations readily available too so felt very safe.

Such a lovely place, the staff really have a handle on distancing and safe service. We booked in advance and stayed in the car park in our camper van. Lovely vegan option and a good understanding of vegan requests. My partner had the posh fish and chips and said it was delicious.Friendly, hard working staff who really couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you, we will definitely be back!

Really fast and very friendly service. Great food (review initiated by 8 & 10 yr old whilst having desert!) in a lovely setting. Definitely a come again trip for the whole family.

7 of us came for Sunday lunch, we were taking my elderly dad out for the first time since lockdown. Lovely location and day however it was overshadowed by the attitude of a member of staff. Also we were given the wrong meal and when my sister mentioned this to the owner his manner was so rude. Won’t be in a hurry to return.

Me and the wife had a takeway Sunday dinner and it was tremendous! Beef was amazing and the gravy was to die for

We’d booked a meal for Mother’s Day at the Coach and Horses and unfortunately due to the current situation we were unable to go. However the pub offered a takeaway service which we took up. The food, as always was delicious. The chicken tikka skewers as a starter were so tasty, the roast lamb lush and the puddings were awesome.

Shown to table, no mention of certain items on menu that were not available,made order only then too be told items where not available.Only when we decided to leave did the items, "we were all having the same" become available. The meal fish and chips were delicious. The lady owner non apologetic, very unfriendly. We will not return.

Stopped by on the off chance of getting a table for Sunday Lunch and were quickly shown to our table. The staff were polite and welcoming. My husband and I both ordered the cauliflower soup to start and although it was delicious it wasn't very hot. When the main meal came the three of us had different meats and all were lovely but we only had one small dish of veg between us and needless to say we were a little disappointed.Overall the meal was lovely and have had meals here before and they have been really good but I don't think I would rush back for Sunday lunch again.

Six of us went for a few drinks mid-week at about 7.30pm. Prices were way above the norm for South Wales ( Guinness was £4.95 a pint ) so a round of six drinks was approx £25 ( we were not all drinking Guinness! ). I wanted to buy round number five at 10.15pm and was told they had stopped serving.

Me and my partner have been several times of the past 3 years with my children , today I took my parents and sister up to the coach and horses, we arrived late , but the lady’s behind the bar was accomadating, we had 11 meals in total and 10 deserts and it was absolulty outstanding ! Food/effort/ presentation , it did not disappoint! Credit to the chefs !! Every one had eaten it all! Desserts was amazing too! We was so chuffed the family enjoyed the pub as much as me and my partner! The waitresses are amazing they work extremely hard and are attentive! hats off to them! The pub is in a beautiful position with a small park across from it, and the canals we love doing the walks in the summer. Great location! All in all 10/10 for everything guys ur doing amazing job will b back up in the spring term!!

Good selection of food,well cooked and presented.staff and owners very friendly.excellent location on side of canal,ideal for walkers and bikers

Arrived after our six mile walk, had great 'posh' fish and chips at this cosy location. Live music and room for our dog!The landlord tried to organise a taxi for us back to Crickhowell, however there were none available. Thinking we might have to trek back on foot the landlord drove us back to Crickhowell and wouldn't take a penny. Thankful for the kindness of strangers.

a warm and welcoming pub, excellent food and great beer, well worth a visit for the wonderful food. Staff friendly and can't do enough for you

Good pub nice beer, had a meal which was very average. Ordered at the table, took quite a while for the main course to arrive BUT the vegetables to go with it took another 10 minuets before arriving slightly cold and very under cooked. Waitress was pretty poor, very pleasant but not really up to the job. No one seemed certain what 'gluten free' was when it came to main course.

Three of us went for lunch on very wet and cold day and our visit brighten our day Warm welcoming bar and very pleasant lady greeted us. Felt comforable right away. Food was really nice well cooked well presented and enjoyed by all. Would recommend

visited as we walked from brecon to crichwell. was getting cold and hungry and needed cake!

Wow, where do I start? What a super place to relax.

We have eaten here twice while holidaying on a canal boat. Pleasant and comfortable surroundings, friendly welcome, good service and excellent food. The portions were very generous and quality of meat and fish very good. Delicious!! Thank you.

This pub is very close to the canal. In fact their beer garden is adjacent to the canal. A great place to spend a sunny afternoon watching the world go by!

We arrived mid week whilst staying on the Mon & Brec Canal. The menu read well although there were some dishes (steak) that we’re not available.

What a joy! Good atmosphere and good food and drink. Perhaps one of the best steaks I have ever eaten. Service was good and friendly – remarkable as they had a very large party to cater and yet, the rest of us on our tables of twos and fours, still had perfect service.

Visited this friendly pub with nine mates on a walking weekend. As soon as we entered the landlord Sean was quick to serve us and find a table for ten which we hadn't booked.

We stopped in for dinner on our way as we cruised down the Mon-Brec canal on a narrowboat. Easily this was our best and most delicious meal in the week we were on the canal. Highly recommend. Try the lamb trio, the lamb was very well prepared, so tender and the lamb sausage was delicious.

Called in at The Coach and Horses tonight with the family, very warm welcome off Sean, Jackie and staff. Clean tidy and warm, choice of menu excellent, service time excellent, quality of food oustanding,very well priced, anyone looking for a good evening give Sean at The Coach and Horses first choice.

Just got back from Sunday lunch here, what a wonderful welcome and the food was to die for. Even my sister, who can be a bit fussy thoroughly enjoyed her day. The only downside was they didn't have any windberry tart on the menu for my brother in law.! but he's been spoilt all his life and he's 83yo. He enjoyed his cup of tea though.

We were not acknowledged when we arrived even though the bar person looked at us when we walked through the door. We waited ages to be served whilst the two bar persons laughed about a customer who told them the best way to make a cappuccino. We asked for a baguette to be told that they didn't have any but we were offered a ciabatta instead. The advertising stated wide choice of fillings to which they only had cheese and onion / cheese and tomato. We were told that they had no other choices at all.

Hi tried to selected something else from the menu but still had the posh fish and chips with mushy peas

Stopped here in a Saturday lunchtime while boating on the canal.

This is one of my favourite gastro-pubs but last night raised the question of how you keep standards up when the top team has a night off. The Sunday lunch service was, we were told, hectic and busy, so the first team had the evening off. This was apparent when we walked in and the manager who is excellent front-of-house was not there.

Had a great Sunday lunch today at the Coach even though it was so busy busy ! Food was being served to the beer gardens opposite , outside area , pub and the restaurant .Service was excellent and food was lovely with veg hot and plentiful ,credit to all the serving staff and chefs for a very enjoyable Bank holiday lunch !

Booked late on a Friday for a celebration night due to unforseen circumstances.

Had food here today fab as usual we love food and atmosphere here, very often think we will go somewhere else for a change but always end up here because never disappointed and alwaysget a warm welcome from Donna. Great place will be back soon

An enjoyable time spent in the beer garden watching the comings and goings on the canal after a walk to the locks. Wished we'd had time to try the fabulous looking Sunday dinners.

We called when passing by around lunch time, wow, what great food and very, big portions. I can recommend the posh fish and chips. We will be back next time we are in this area.

i visited here a few months back and it’s fair to say i was not disappointed. the food was absolutely delicious and they served a good amount too! being a vegetarian myself i did see that there weren’t too many veggie/vegan options available. however i cannot fault the food i was given, i also would like to comment on how friendly the staff were towards me. i found them very welcoming and able to have a laugh with their customers which is always good. x

Having visited here last month expecting some nice food and service,We were left very disappointed.Although the food was ok it was nothing special certainly not worth the money in my opinion.However the service was where this place was a huge letdown,would say we had a terrible welcome but there was no welcome at all,very frosty from the owner/manager,her attitude was terrible,which seems to flow down to the waitresses.Which is a real shame because this place could be a real gem with a change of management and a good old friendly welcome,it costs nothing to be nice

Walked along the canal from Crickhowell stopped off for a drink so cannot it comment on the food. However, the staff were friendly, we sat outside tea there were wasps but that's nothing the pub can do anything about. A great location definately worth a visit.

This was an opportunity to meet up with friends to catch up on news and plan for an event for May 2020.

Enjoyed a lovely family Sunday lunch in the coach and horses, the staff were really friendly and professional, the starter main meal and dessert was excellent and will definitely go back for more

Took my family to the coach & horses for Sunday lunch to celebrate my wife's birthday.

Friendly welcome on arrival. Lovely family atmosphere. Awesome Sunday lunch nothing was too much trouble. We were a party of nine and all food arrived boiling hot and absolutely delicious from the starter to the main to the deserts. Would recommend this establishment to everyone I know. We've eaten out at a lot of places for family meals and we couldn't find better if we tried. The owners and staff were exceptional with the service. We'll definitely be visiting again

Fantastic service from the staff who were so friendly and welcoming. The food was outstanding. Myself and my family will definitely be returning

We spend the majority of our summer here, the majority of family or friend celebrations are also spent here. We absolutely love it. The food is outstanding and the service even better.

Fab Food, brilliant staff. reasonable priced, nothing to much trouble, Had a 6 year old child they was really good with him

After walking along the canal for an overnight stay at the Coach and Horses. The welcome was poor and indifferent. We were shown to our room. Outside our room at the top of stairs there was just a load of stuff piled up. Our room was old fashioned and dated and ridiculously said to have an en-suite which was just a shower in the corner of the room. It looked stupid and not professional. The communal bathrooms were poor and old fashioned. The curtain rail fell off when I tried to close the curtains!

Had dinner here last month for the first time in a couple of years,usually go to the vine tree along the road but thought we,d try here for a change,big mistake.We both had soup which was barely warm followed by steaks which were tough and tasteless.Not once were we asked how our meal was.The service was the poorest part by far.Waitresses looked like they’d rather be anywhere than here and the manager was very unwelcoming and she walked around with a face like thunder the whole time.Dont waste your money in this very unpleasant and glum environment.

We have been to this restaurant a few times and always liked it and felt comfortable there, so we decided to go for Sunday lunch as it was my husband's birthday. My husband had the beef and I had the slow roasted belly pork, both were delicious, however, when it came to the veg it came in a small dish which to my mind would of been enough for one, but that was for two of us. Carrots, which were lovely, broccoli,cauliflower and peas, my husband went to eat the peas and they were still frozen, I told the waitress thinking she would take them back and replace them but she gave her apologies, took them away and that was the last we seen or heard of them. For what we paid for the meal I think it was very shoddy. It was very busy in there but that should be no excuse. So as we were still hungry we decided to try desert which we don't normally have. My husband ordered sticky toffee pudding and I had lemon meringue. My husband ended up with chocolate pudding and I had a rubbery meringue. I don't think we will be going back for Sunday lunch again.

We rang 4 hours ahead for a table, got to the pub and they were certain we hadn’t booked a table. We went outside rang them to see if they could either Deny or confirm our booking to which the rude female manager said we did have a table. So we walked back in for her to say our table wasn’t ready in a rude manor. The outside seating areas are overcome with wasps! Our food firstly came out stone cold. We were then told our table wasn’t ready still. 45minutes after the time we previously scheduled. She then rudely told us that we have at most 15minutes to sit down and eat our meal!

Decided to go in here for lunch today,older lady,probably the owner with the most horrid attitude I’ve ever come across when trying to order food.Also the same with the customer in front of us,wish we had left because the food was bang average too.Will never spend another penny in this amateur establishment.

It took exactly one hour to be served a meal which was ordered at table 40.I can only assume that it was due to my wife verifying that we had been overcharged for the meal before it arrived.It is common to give customers a receipt on products purchased she was not offered one.

My husband and I were staying in the area for my birthday last week and we decided to walk to this pub, as we were delighted to find it had a vegan menu! The pub is set in a beautiful location and we had really lucked out with the weather, as it was beautifully hot, so we got to sit outside and soak up the atmosphere. I'm really shocked by some of the reviews, as we experienced really lovely customer service when we ordered. The staff were really friendly and informative. Unfortunately they had taken one of the vegan items off the menu, which is specified on their website (the beetroot bun), however I was still delighted to find that the other vegan option was still available. It was served exactly as I like - piping hot (not stone cold as others have said their meals were served) and the ingredients tasted really fresh. Thank you so much for having something for us vegans! Would definitely visit this pub again if we are staying nearby and hopefully by then they will have even more vegan options added to their menu! See you again soon.

Ate here for the umpteenth time, this time for Sunday Lunch. Very very busy but great service , staff really helpful and the food was delicious . Piping hot and made to my specific dietary request. Highly recommend the Coach and Hiorses for both dinner and evening meals.
