Georgie Porgie's Coffee Stop in Powys

Very disappointed having loved this cafe on our last visit and was looking forward to going back. The service was just not the same, they weren’t serving any of the cooked food they did last time and so with no choice we had tea and cake. The cake was stale, the milk was off, The lady made a fresh pot but forgot to give us cups so the tea was like tar by the time we managed to get cups but milk was still off. We upped and left and won’t be going back.

An attractive, cosily designed coffee shop serving generous mugs of delicious coffee. Lots of savoury and sweet options available. A great stop off for snack lunch.

We stopped off in Builth Wells on our journey North and did not have high hopes of finding somewhere good for lunch on a Monday. We liked the look of Georgie Porgie's - it looked friendly and comfortable and the food seemed interesting, offering something a bit different to the "usual" lunchtime offer in other cafes. We sampled the frittata (choice of more than one - all looked good) and a ciabatta sandwich. Both were excellent, and a world away from mass-produced "quiche" that is available in some places. A successful and enjoyable lunch stop - thank you!

Staying locally and stopped here for lunch on recommendation of our holiday home owners. Very quirky small coffee shop and dog friendly. Two paninis, two rarebits, four hot drinks enjoyed inside, and some cake to go. You can choose some homemade quiche or fritatta with salad bar, or there are menus with hot food. All our meals came with a small side salad and the paninis included a side of crisps. Enjoyable, but portion sizes varied with the rarebit being just one slice of bread. Cakes eaten later were out of this world. We went for a chocolate mini eggs brownie, a strawberry crumble blondie and a cherry bakewell blondie. I'd recommend a visit for the cakes alone but be expected to pay.

Had a tasty hot chocolate with lots of cream on top was really nice. Staff lovely with lots cakes all home made. Would go again.

Thanks again for great food.Returned after our second visit to Wales.Friendly staff great food, Thank you. Can you open one up in Plymouth please.

This is a lovely coffee shop in the centre of the town. You will get a warm welcome and there is a good selection of sweet and savoury snacks. We had very good peanut butter and white chocolate/raspberry blondies and two nice coffees and this came to £11.

Georgie Porgie's appears to have three eating areas: one based on a dress shop, one in a gallery for local artists opposite and one in a garden beside the gallery. We lunched in the dress shop full of colourful clothing. The staff were very jolly and friendly and the atmosphere relaxed. Homemade quiches with accompanying salad were unusually excellent and the cakes looked wonderful though we resisted those. Highly recommended.

We stopped at Georgie Porgie for lunch whilst at Builth Wells. It’s a lovely cafe in amounts a ladies clothes and gift shop. The good was obviously homemade with a lovely selection of quiches and salads. They were happy to make fresh panini’s for us with our choice of fillings which was very nice of them and I can highly recommend the Welsh Rarebit. We even stayed for cake!!

Dropped in for a meeting/coffee and its amazing, great food and really lovely staff, this will be a regular meeting place!

Gorgeous food fab friendly staff and lovely coffee and my wife loved looking around all the clothes I would definitely recommend this coffee shop

I've been going here for lunch, once a week, for a long time and it really is the best place to eat 💜💜 The food is amazing,and as a vegan I don't say that lightly. The girls are just lovely and the whole experience is relaxing. Tbh, it's a good job I don't live in Builth or I would eat there every day💓 Looking forward to another visit very soon.

Had a delicious lunch with a friend. Tasty looking selection on the counter. I had rarebit with a tasty dressed salad on the side. The service was friendly and relaxed. Really enjoyed our lunch and will definitely be back again.

Another fantastic lunch. The best salad bowls we have ever had. The quiche was exceptional. Highly recommend. Dog friendly and excellent customer service

We visited for coffee and cake which were both delicious. Great freshly made coffee and brilliant choice of cakes. When we left to drive to Tenby my husband left his phone on the table -he didn't realise it was lost until we got home 3 days later! I phoned the cafe and they sent it back recorded delivery - absolutely first class service, thank you!

Lovely place, staff were really friendly and so helpful, salads and tarts available for lunch we delicious and a great selection! Thank you so much!

Great staff no complaints best coffee ever lovely and hot no like some luke warm great cakes had many return visits great for cyclist with outdoor sitting you can keep an eye on your bikes

We had lovely food in this quirky cafe cwm clothes shop and would recommend a visit. The downside was my coffee was so hot it scalded the inside of my mouth which did not recover for 4 days. I would have complained by my partner...

Outstanding coffee, if very hot! Cake excellent, particularly the bakewell with fresh raspberries. Staff friendly and cheerful even if very busy with some very trying customers. Definitely worth a visit. Lunches looked great too.

Satisfying lunch stop. A boutique come cafe serving delicious lunch coffee and cake. A welcome set of refreshments for the two of us and dog after a long walk along the river.

What a lovely friendly coffee shop. The coffee was fantastic and they even made my wife's as she likes it. There was an amazing array of delicious looking cakes but we were going out for lunch. A lovely, buzzing place well worth popping in to.

Came across Georgie Porgie’s on a Saturday lunchtime. Quirky friendly shop with a great menu for vegetarians. Highly recommended.

Excellent service. Courteous and friendly staff. Seating is opposite shop. Lovely selection! Tea cakes are 👍

What a fab find! We stopped on our way for a few nights away and found this great little dog friendly cafe. The owners were so lovely and we stayed for a few hours chatting. We both had lovely home cooked lunches and would highly...

Nice little caffee, really enjoyed the sticky sausage was very tasty. Staff were friendly, also nice bath bombs and melts to look at. Would recommend.

Visited Builth recently and popped in for lunch, very pleasant surroundings, nice young lady served us, food was freshly prepared and extremely good, drinks were delicious also, will definitely visit again when in the area......

Stopped here when returning from South Wales , very friendly, lovely coffee and cake as well as dog friendly , they also returned a Bag that I had left in error .

I stopped off for a quick lunch here. It is a friendly little coffee shop. There was an excellent selection of home made cakes . I actually went for one of their sausage rolls which was excellent and came with a very nice home made...

Gorgeous, colourful, exciting, friendly, warm. Great choice of food, combinations :). We had four cheese rissoto, chilli with nachos, mocha and a tea and Sammie our dog got thoroughly spoilt with posh ham :) .

Lovely little coffee shop, extremely cosy, great atmosphere and good selection of cakes and coffee. Super friendly staff

Fabulous place caught our attention as we were trying to find somewhere to park. Loved the exterior signage muddy boots paws welcome etc! Makes a change! Walked in friendly faces and plenty of super dogs. An absolute gem. Ops nearly forgot excellent coffee and choice...

Saw this coffee shop as we passed by on our wales motorcycle trip. Decided to stop and had coffees and delicious vegan flapjack. What a great place - very quirky and original with lovely staff. Definitely recommend a visit.

we stumbled upon this café on a day trip to Builth Wells. Great welcoming atmosphere here- the staff are lovely. The food was incredible, especially the home made salads and cakes. will definitely visit again if we are in the area

Often pop in when visiting builth, always met with warm welcomes and friendly faces. Lovely menu choices with freshly prepared food and yummy cakes. Will be back again very soon!

The buffet we recently ordered for a business conference was fit for a king! Highly reccomend, they delivered quality, quantity and friendly service. Can't wait for the next opportunity to order from them!

Waited 15 mins for coffee and a bit of expensive! Cake to be told sorry it took so long were short staffed? I'm sorry I don't need to know your short staffed there were 3 of you ! Rubbish total Rubbish more like too busy chatting to give customer service! Glad I wasn't eating

This is the best little independent coffee shop we've ever visited. The coffee is just as good if not better than any of the big chains & served in proper cups by friendly staff who care. Unfortunately we called in not long after breakfast so didn't sample any of the exciting food on offer but it all looked scrumptious. Surprisingly the coffee shop is also a retail opportunity selling lots of quirky fashions & gifts & you can even visit their beauty salon!

great food and the kids get a lovely wellcome. Yummy lunch, good value and lovely atmosphere. We always love coming and enjoying hot chocolates and cake.

I don't think it's very nice to be charged for upgrades I didn't order or ask for. I feel a bit conned.

Very friendly little place, and quirky. Very good food, as fresh as it could be. The salads were the best I have had in years. I have never had such a good potato salad as theirs. I think they must make their own mayonnaise for it - Excellent. No cheap salad cream here!

Cafe plus shop. Had a Pear and custard tart warm with chocolate sauce. Superb. Trendy place. Selection of savouries and cakes. Not cheap but the very best quality.

After very long bike ride just needed to have a quick coffee and cake very impressive coffee best I've had in a long while and the cake I had was lovely just what I needed staff very helpful let me put my bike inside for safety, will definitely be back. Great little cafe and very helpful staff

Went in for an black coffee and earl grey tea. Waited 10 minutes after ordering and paying while a large table behind us were asked to repeat their order. Then a couple who arrived at 10 minutes after us got served their drinks. Kitchen staff overheard apologising after bringing out food “sorry wasn’t aware of the order”. Walked out, didn’t wait to try and get money back. Would not recommend

Great way to dine, relaxed, enjoyable, a really fun evening. Loved the feel of the tapas evening where you dine from a set menu of about 6/7 courses that you share. Each one was delicious and presented really well. As tapas always is, it was a really socialable way to eat. You could see a lot of work had gone into the menu and it paid off.

What can be said that has not been said before ?

Fabulous food with a chilled atmosphere and good hosting by all staff. Would definitely recommend booking in for a Tapas evening.

Our first visit to this lovely little cafe/restaurant was for their Mexican tapas evening. The food was exceptionally good and the service kind and attentive. We will definitely go again for a casual coffee or one of their themed dinners.

Visited Georgi Porgies for a Mexican Tapas Night and are pleased to say we all had a fantastic evening. The surroundings are lovely as are the staff and the food was amazing. Small and friendly place and we all thought very good value for the money. Will be back soon.

Went for a tapas night. The food was spectacular; excellent flavours and timed perfectly, so that you were never waiting long for food, but you weren't overloaded with courses either. Spent about three hours there without even realising. The atmosphere was very relaxed, but the service was still impeccable. The value for money was brilliant; I've paid at least twice as much for food nowhere near as good as I got here. Could not fault it and will be recommending to everyone I know in the area. I only wish they did these nights more often.

A fabulously unusually coffee shop/cafe/dress shop/hairdressers... Great coffee and a range of well thought out food options. A warm, family welcome awaits

It's always a pleasure to visit Georgie Porgies, alone or with friends. These kind ladis are always very cheerful and welcoming, with new and exciting lunches on the menu. Set in an upcycled old victorian-style shopfront of Builth and fairly busy around lunchtime, the food is just the right type if you'd like to treat yourself. Lovely servings of always tasty, rich flavours- and a range of vegetarian alternatives. Salad is fresh and has the extra touch to it, and bread is warm served with butter. Would highly recommend if stopping in Builth Wells!

Wonderful individual eaterie providing an excellent menu. Dog friendly, and frequented daily by locals.

super selection of cakes....superb hot chocolate...a bowl of water arrived for our dog just arrived without asking...very friendly service ...even edible glitter on my wife's hot chocolate for her birthday...please pop in great place ...

Called in here when on journey back from North Wales. Ordered at counter and sat at window table which had not been cleared. When first drinks brought, the lady cleared the table but did not bother to wipe it - it was dirty!! Add to that there was a hair in the topping of the cake my daughter ordered gives it an average only.

Hit coffee gold here, a flat White to die for, not bitter, good foam and the right temperature. Can't say more than that...other than........

We visited for lunch and a drink whilst passing through. The milk shakes are amazing ! The salad bar too is excellent. Homemade macaroni cheese too! No complaints at all to be honest. We would thoroughly recommend this place. Caitlin is very helpful and welcoming and we will be happy to return. Thank you !!!!

With some of the best coffee, tea, and cakes in Builth, this is a slightly quirky premises where you can also buy a dress, a jumper, or shoes. Friendly service, average prices, interesting atmosphere.

having once been the boutique shop "beautifully bonkers" this shop knows how to diversify and is still a very popular hang out, Im not sure about having clothes etc where food is being made and eaten and not sure about being served my purchases over uncovered cakes etc, however its a very quirky place and the atmosphere is great, there has been a theme cuisine night organised once a month, the food looked amazing but flavours need to be worked on, its a take your own booze evening which is great, a very lively night!

Great service. Great food. Great decor! Popped in for some lunch just as we were passing through town. So glad we did.

First visit last night welsh tapas evening . Awesome evening , love the vintage feel and fabulous food. Well done to all the staff for working* so hard and giving us such a brilliant night. Looking forward to Lebanese night in May

Had a delicious parsnip and apple soup served with excellent bread. Coffee very good. Interesting inside. Take a look.

Popped in for a cup of tea - loved the Joe Brown's clothes for sale and all the chit chat. Lovely atmosphere and made to feel very welcome.

I've gone here for years as a salon and as a shop, I've also popped in a few times for a coffee, this morning I've popped in for a baguette and I can honestly say it was the nicest baguette I've tasted!

Quirky fun decor. Plenty to look at. The food looks interesting and home cooked. The smells are yummy. Lots of cakes, biscuits and flapjacks on the counter and a fab variety of teas. The coffee was muddy and horrible and the pie did not live up to expectations, but an interesting place to eat in Builth

The flapjacks are to die for and the cafe is so friendly and staff very welcoming. Great place for dogs and to relax. The menu is good for snacks and light meals. We went twice as we enjoyed it so much.

These once-a-month tapas nights are great fun with carefully thought out (and prepared)dishes. Tonight was the turn of Spain and this started with a lovely soup served in glasses. There were deep-fried aubergine slices with a dip, meat balls, paella, constantly replenished salad and to finish a sophisticated bread and butter pudding.

Came in for coffee and ended up staying for food and more coffee! Lovely staff, coffee and lunch menu with complementary chilled music playing in the background.

Good food and good service at this quirky cafe and store in the town centre. Good coffee and cake. Delicious macaroni cheese and lovely fresh salad and bread. If you like local and a bit different, then this cafe is for you. The decor is very individual and worth a visit.

We called in for coffee and loved the atmosphere of the cafe straightaway. We chose a window seat to watch the comings and goings in the high street. The coffee was very good and the service polite and friendly. At the back of the cafe is a women's clothes and shoe shop, with a few other household things thrown in. And upstairs is a beauty salon. This all adds to the buzz of the place. I would definitely recommend.

What a lovely quirky little coffee shop - great milkshake with a cinnamon swirl and their toasted tea cakes are humongous! Love the decor of the place and enjoyed browsing the shelves while waiting for our coffees. Would definitely recommend.

We just wanted a quick bit of lunch and the menu looked good. The first thing that struck me was the number of flies, this is one of my own phobias so it was a bad start but perhaps unfair to judge them by it, but I avoided the food that was open as a result. A chiller by the counter had some nice looking slices so we ordered them only to find they had no salad. OK no big problem, a vegetable slice with no salad is fine. We ordered drinks too and sat down. The drinks arrived quickly but we could see the slices had not moved. The customers next to us went up to remind the staff about their order and we did the same. A short time later we could see our slices were being prepared. They arrived and we were informed the plates were hot. This was true but the slices were still chilled in the middle. They were very tasty and as they were vegetable based we did not complain and happily ate them.

We popped in for a coffee and a cooling ice cream as this was the hottest day of the year so far! They had a lovely air conditioning unit on - bliss

We were in Builth Wells for the the weekend and after some shopping on the high street we saw Georgie Porgies and thought we d stop off for a coffee .

Once a month Col and Georgie have a themed night

Easy to find coffee shop with Homemade food great hot chocolate staff very friendly nice choice of home made dishes on the menu

I saw this on this site and the other reviews convinced me that it was worth a visit. It didn't disappoint. We had some lovely broccoli and Stilton soup with fresh baguette. We resisted the range of cakes that were on offer. There were other nice choices too within the menu. I was impressed that they have meal deals and also will provide half a sandwich. At the back of the cafe there is a little shop selling unusual but good quality clothing and gifts. I was lucky to be there when they had a sale so treated myself further.

We had a wonderful meal at the coffee stop and this was mixed with great conversation and very friendly welcoming staff who were keen to please. The food was superb too!

Had a cracking night at Georgie Progies in Builth last night. Fabulous food, great atmosphere, lovely staff and fellow diners ❤️🍽......Highly recommend anyone book a table at their next evening event. Xxx

Small but cute,great decor. lovely selection of quick snacks Would recommend the home made sausage puff pastry plaits, apricot pastry or apple strudel with llanfaes dairy ice cream, yum!!

Fantastic place to come and relax , in this trendy place to meet for coffee and try some amazing food,, especially the asparagus,pear,blue cheese & walnut tart !! What a delight!! They also have a lovely collection of clothing and shoes to look at.. will definitely be visiting again.. !

Lovely shop, great staff, full of beautiful things, fab ice-cream and excellent coffee. You can also have your hair done and various beauty treatments, great, all under roof.

Nice little coffee shop,with very attentive staff.Thought some of the menu was a little over priced,but well presented,and tastey.

New little coffee shop situated in main street, front half now a unique coffee shop, back half a little haven of clothes, footwear & lots of little goodies and upstairs a beauty parlour. All homemade food locally sourced & varied daily. A little bit on the expensive side for Builth but as a treat now & again it is highly recommended and NO chips anywhere!!!!

Great atmosphere with the bubbliest of staff , lovely menu with some really delicious specials daily. The warm brownie with Llanfaes icecream (loads of flavours) is simply devine ! Georgie Porgies has a very cosmopolitan feel about it. Will certainly be making this a regular pitstop !! FAB

Stopped off here on our way back south from snowdonia national park. We happened to spot it when driving through the high street.
