Neuadd Arms Hotel in Powys

I've been traveling to Britain for over 20 years and I have always defended the antiquated notion of how bad British food is. However, the Neuadd Arms Hotel serves food that has been one of the worst meals I've had in my 20 years of traveling here. It was at least edible which is a low bar to achieve. We thought the outdoor seating would be lovely because of all the brilliant sunshine but the many lorries barreling through the town in front of the hotel was unpleasant. Strange that the towns people/landowners didn't place a hotel on the beautiful river's edge. The Neuadd Arms Hotel isn't the only establishment that received low marks in this town. More reviews to follow.

Stopped for dinner on the way home from the Eisteddfod, had a lovely welcome by all the staff, food was quick and very tasty. Would definitely come back again.

Due to the mixed reviews I was unsure about visiting but I was mistaken. The staff were friendly, welcoming & super helpful. The barman was knowledgeable about the drinks on offer & the waiter was patient during the difficult decision of pudding choices. The food was delicious - especially the hot pot & ALL the puddings. My children cleared their plates - this does not happen often. If you get the chance do pop in, please do. You will not be disappointed.

Very friendly family run Hotel. When they say “Dog Friendly” they mean it. But dogs are under control and other guests are not disturbed. We spent three nights at the hotel as part of a walking holiday with our large dog. The walking is really good with walks for most abilities. The hotel appears to be the centre of many community activities and there were many regular repeat visitors from various parts of the UK. The owners were actively ensuring that all guest were being catered for (including the dog). Food and drink is reasonably priced and freshly prepared. Recommended as a family friendly, dog friendly, busy place to stay

Staying in town looking for evening meal. Decided on this pub, good choice on menu with reasonable prices. Good beer available, staff friendly, food came out quite quick, good quality, will pop in again.

Ate supper here late March 2022. We both chose the Lamb and Leek hotpot with root vegetables and mashed potatoes. It arrived hot on hot plates (I'm quite fussy about hot food and plates) and stayed hot until the last mouthful. The hotpot was absolutely delicious and perfectly seasoned. A good fun atmosphere here helped by Claire who is a lovely bubbly helpful young lady. The owners were lovely too of course and so were their gorgeous dogs. Would eat here again.

This is a well established inn on the busy A483. It is traditionally decorated and has a homely feel. There is a reasonable priced food menu and a couple of real ales are available. Nice place to break a journey to West Wales.

The owner and her staff could not do enough for us all when we visited in Jan they were so welcoming. It's a must to stop have some lovely home made food and a refreshing pint!

Staying overnight with my wife just 5 minutes walk from the hotel it seemed an inviting spot in which to take dinner. The attractive Grade II listed building at the very heart of the Square appeared to be ideal. Welcomed upon arrival and escorted to our reserved table by the window we felt comfortable and at ease in the atmospheric dining room. Studying the menu over glasses of Sauvignon Blanc we ordered starters of carrot and coriander soup with fillets of seabass and a Madras curry to follow. The soup arrived, hot and tasty, with a strong showing of coriander and accompanied by nice fresh baguettes and butter. Meeting our initial expectations it boded well for the remainder of the meal. The seabass served with new potatoes and a salad was nicely cooked - the firm flesh enhanced by a rich jus, although as I remarked to the waitress I would have preferred to see a crispy skin. However, my wife being familiar with various curry dishes thought her own food "edible" but lacking in any discernible heat. Having consumed the first two courses the young staff had up till then provided a competent and efficient table service. Some 25-30 minutes subsequently elapsed before I was obliged to ask for a dessert menu at which time the table was cleared. With only four tables occupied (including our own) it appeared one particular party that had arrived sometime after ourselves were meriting special attention. Our friendly team had taken their "eye off the ball" and not noticed other diners waiting! In the event we decided to conclude the meal without placing an order for desserts.

Stayed a short walk away & ate her both nights, can’t fault the service or food, delicious & very reasonably priced. Beer brewed on site was really good too, will definitely return when in the area again

When we walked through the door I felt like I had stepped back in time. The decor is stuck somewhere in the 40/50s. In keeping with that, the service was extremely slow and we had our strapping 17 year old grandson with us who was hungry. So much so that after a long wait, my husband went into the bar of the hotel and came back with two packets of crisps for him and the lady on the next table burst out laughing. It was an ice breaker because it started a conversation. The food, once it arrived, was OK but nothing to rave about. The restaurant was memorable for the wrong reasons.

I stopped here for a post bike ride drink with a group of friends and were welcomed by the staff who provided options for our varying requests of refreshments. We sat outside as the weather was fine so can’t comment on the other facilities but what we did see was perfectly adequate.

This was a last minute booking due to our camping holiday being rained off, but what a great find! Our room was a little 'tired' but with a large comfy bed, big fluffy towels and a shower so powerful it nearly knocked you off your feet, we were more than happy. Service was second to none, from Lindsay carrying out a couple of repairs in our room quickly to Catherine taking our wet boots, jackets & trousers after a very wet walk and putting them in the boiler room to dry out over night. Breakfast was excellent and evening meals were superb (especially the currys and the steak, not forgetting the stilton & walnut pate. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful making our stay a very nice experience. Thank you Lindsay & Catherine and all your team.

Dropped in on the first day of reopening. Excellent social distancing and covid prevention measures set up. Friendly service and really good curry and sea bass. Well kept local ale. Will be returning again.

If you're into "chain,corporate,predictable" type places, this is not for you, it's much better than that. Proper cook, proper brewed on the premises ale £3.60, cracking pint of guiness(3.80) as well. Great choice of curries, inc.veggie, £10 inc.naan bread. Specials, such as lamb shank, liver & onions(my favourite) etc,etc., Dogs welcome, great walks from the door....I could go on. Try it, you're either love it as I do or it could be you're first & last visit....back to the "chain" places for you then.

...I could just go on with the “greats”: great food (particularly the signature curries) and great beer - particularly from the local “Heart of Wales” brewery (“Boggled”, named after the famous local sport of bog-snorkelling was a real favourite); a great range of gins, with a particularly fine selection of gins from Wales and all of these at great value! A really warm welcome in this great little town awaits you and if you want great pub food and drink at great value, look no further!

We were visiting the Bog Snorkeling event which the Pub runs every year and had to taste their own brew as well!. The meal we had in the lovely bright Restaurant was great - would have liked a sauce with my steak, but that's just my preference. Well worth the visit and the staff were really helpful and pleasant.

Travelled with a group of 8 and stayed overnight. Good choice of real ales (some brewed on the premises) and very welcoming locals with some great characters. Staff very helpful and not phased by our late changes to the booking. Food was very good. Will use them again when in this area.

Called in here for tea while waiting to book in at nearby hotel. Landlady and locals extremely friendly. Delicious ginger cake and nice pot of tea. Great selection of ales. Booked in to our accommodation where there was a young audience for the Rugby. Decided to go back to Neuadd Arms to watch the rugby. Wonderful atmosphere, friendly locals, free half time snacks served to customers. Decided to return for an excellent evening meal home cooked ham, egg and chips and the other meal was steak. I can highly recommend this establishment for friendliness and excellent food. Thank you.

We popped in here for food and drink however, we skipped eating as the place didn’t look very clean. I am a dog lover so had no problem with the owners dogs, I just don’t want to be sitting on furniture that is covered in dog hairs and leaving the place smelling of dogs! The pub is shabby and tired which I could forgive but the whole place looks as if it could do with a good scrub so was not going to try the food!

Excellent service and the food just right. We ordered sandwiches and they were perfect but I did regret not having a hot meal as the menu was substantial and would have satisfied anybody.The people I was with had made other arrangements prior to our visit and they were also disappointed not to have had a good wholesome hot meal.The one downfall was not the food or drink but the décor and the carpet were a bit dated and a little t.l.c. would go along way. Still a good place to go.

What a dreadful place ! it was absolutely filthy! our room when we walked in had a awful smell of drains coming from the bathroom we had to open all the windows,the place had at sometime had some subsidence as our room was on a slant even the bed and the door to the room did not fit the gapThere were thick cobwebs dust and dirt everywhere the paper on the wall and ceiling was all comeing away.All the old furniture was dusty and dirty needless to say we did not sleep well !Breakfast was served in the dinning room that had loads of dead flies on the window sill and more cobwebs this place should not be open .My husband booked this hotel going on the reviews which seemed ok but i would think many of the the reviews are not based on a stay in one of the rooms.

We were looking for a Sunday dinner, outside of this hotel looked ok, inside were several wet dogs with owners, one dog was loose but friendly, it's a very tired and in need of renovating place but the two ladies seemed friendly, however the food was really awful, I had beef pie and chips, it looked like it was out of a tin, my husband had gammon that was not good and our 5 year old had pizza which was the 55p type from a supermarket and microwaved by the look of it, this poor place needs some love and restoration, it can't be pleasant to work here either.

superb Saturday night, excellent curry , band on the place rocked , great atmosphere , quick service , and great choice of Ales brewed on the premises.. what more do you need ...

I had the misfortune to stay in this hotel last week.

Spent the evening here with family as part of a walk across Wales. It has a great bar - and I mean really good - fantastic selection of Welsh beers, gins and whisky - and great company ranging from local characters to American tourists. Will definitely be coming back!

Had a couple of meals here while on holiday in mid-wales. Surprisingly quiet, but it was May. Good menu, and choices for vegetarians. Very good prices, plenty to eat. No frills.

We visited for a family meal whilst staying at a nearby guesthouse. Having booked a table in the restaurant before arriving in Llanwrtyd, my initial reaction when I arrived here was to turn around and walk back out! I looked past the scaffolding on the outside, which I considered irrelevant, but it was the interior shabbiness which put me off. The bar area was not particularly welcoming with one or two locals in situ. The restaurant decor was very dated, with dead flies scattered around. We were therefore surprised to receive good, friendly service, and very good food! I’m glad we didn’t turn around (we were tired and hungry!) but a lot of people would! Such a shame when the food is good. Deserts were homemade and delicious. Rightly or wrongly, the lower score reflects the appearance and the decor.

food consistently good. Service good also, even when busy. Lounge/bar area real fire & old fashioned settees etc. If you don't want dogs mooching about this isn't for you! Resident dogs friendly but leave you alone if eating (don't beg etc) Restaurant room if you want a less casual setting. Gets very busy in lounge / bar.

I have visited Llanwrtyd Well with a group many times for the beer festival, at the end of a long walk, or as yesterday, for the World Mountain Bike Chariot Race.

We stayed locally for Christmas and spent 3 afternoons here relaxing around the fire, drinking a great red wine and eating the best chips!!

We had a lovely walking weekend in this ideal venue, which is very good value, has attractive public rooms for relaxing together after a long walk in the countryside and which provides excellent and plentiful food. Maintaining the fabric of this huge hotel would be rather a challenge for anyone but I am certainly glad that these owners are there and providing such a good and friendly service. My little dog and I had a great time - many thanks!

Just the job after a walk or a cycle ride. It isnt a gastropub but the foop is straightforward and tasty and there is even some good indian food. And all washed down with a pint of locally brewed beer

My sister and her husband visited us last week, coming up from Sussex, and we took them for a meal here. They were very impressed with their steak meals - cooked exactly how they liked it, and they really enjoyed their delicious desserts.

We come and have dinner every time we are down visiting family and it is always friendly and good basic pub grub. Particular recommend the curry with half rice and half chips.

Food, plenty of ales and great service! What more could you want. Enjoyed a visit here recently whilst visiting for the weekend- menu is what you would expect for a pub but all well prepared and tasty! Decent prices. This pub has plenty of character and plenty of choice of drinks. Particular if you are a real ale lover!

We were in Llanwrtyd for the week, supervising & assessing a gold DofE team....so naturally did a reasonable amount of walking, which naturally requires fuel!

Attended on Friday early evening.The restaurant is just off the lounge bar and the only thing to spoil the experience...

Este lugar es por definición un pub muy particulares. cayó a poca distancia de conversación stoppig cuando entrabas, pero sin duda nos sentimos como 'no eres de aquí de algunos de los patrones.

Dog friendly if you have them. Basic pub food at a decent price. A special shout out to Kathy our waitress. She was lovely, always smiling :-)

Good old building, loads of character 15yrs old? Air so relaxing. Guvnors so helpful Beers! Food! Vg.I'd go again Roger W

excellent as venue about which the Man verses Horse race revolves. Good pre race meal. good range of beers

At first view, the bar/restaurant does not look like much but don't be fooled. Good basic pub grub and and an excellent selection of real ales at a reasonable price. Staff and locals are friendly.

Wonderful lamb stew, surrounded by fun people. We go to the Neuadd every time we are in town. The owners always take the time to say hello. Don't be in a hurry to leave, a glass of wine with a handful of friendly and always funny locals. Great time!

The picture the Pub use to advertise is slightly stretched !!, the only thing which is right is that its the same location :), seriously though the outside does need to be tidied up !!, half scaffolding, worn paint, old signage.Although inside looks like it could also do with revamp in places you can't say the same about the welcome, service and drinks.All done very well and if lived local would be my local.

Good home cooked food. Real ale, brewed on the premises, well stocked bar. What more could you ask for?

Ate here on 2 nights in a recent stay at Llanwrtyd Wells. Friday night is rowdy, but ther beer and food is good value and the landlord and land lady and locals are very friendly.

Ate here because it was so close to where we were staying - really good food and plenty of it! Well worth recommending

I visited the restaurant with a colleague when I was staying nearby with work. The decor is outdated and hysterical! Close your eyes to it and don't be put off. We are in the restaurant. We had salmon which was moist and cooked to perfection. My colleague asked for a salad dressing which was then brought out, home made and delicious. Our desserts were of similar restaurant standard and delicious. This is a well kept secret. Visit here for a meal. Great quality and reasonable. Compliments to s great chef.

Firstly had difficulty in getting through locals smoking in doorway to bar/restaurant. Very noisy in bar - much shouting and swearing. Restaurant could have been quieter but staff kept door to bar open and all thoughts of quiet meal vanished. Lamb Hotpot ok for bar meal but not restaurant standard at all. Left as quickly as I could. Never again.

Was staying locally and decided to have dinner here. I see they have a few good review, but if felt it needed a lot of TLC decor-wise, in fact it looked grubby in the bar area, which was helped by the total lack of atmosphere. There is a huge menu, they pride themselves on their curries so my partner tried the chicken madras but it was full of potatoes and very little chicken, sauce was good though. I had lamb shank with veg which was nothing special.

Had a great value curry meal from a good set of options and a couple of the beers brewed on the premises. Would definitely return

Visited for the first time for food as we were staying overnight at a local guest house, we found it a little chalk and cheese, the bar area was a little dated and small, but the restaurant part more lavishly furnished, friendly service, with choices from a specials board to their normal menu, food was served quite promptly and was nice.

Came up on the train from Swansea for the day. After a walk around the town it was lunch time so ,aware of the Neuadds real ale selection, we decided on this as our Stop!The 'stop' lasted for nearly 5 hours.Food was great and served quickly! The menu selection was varied and there were 'specials' on the board!There was also a varied selection of curries all reasonably priced!I decided on the scampi and my mate had the Lamb hot pot!Washed down with several pints of very reasonably priced real ale, the afternoon at the Neuadd was a great success! Highly recommended!

We eat here every year when coming for the Real Ale Ramble. Food is average, but we know what to expect. This year the curry was quite nice.

Dropped in for a pint very nice Bars with great atmosphere It a well known center for walking and anyone walking in this part of Wales and not know this hotel has missed out Very good Beer and and staff who know their stuff The owners have been there for about 15 years and know the area well I almost booked in they have some very good rooms all in all 5 star didnt have time for food my loss looking at what people were eating

We popped in for lunch and ate in the lounge bar. There is a dining area off this which is quite large and serves as the guests' eating area as well as the restaurant.The lunch menu has traditional pub grub on it at a reasonable price The decor needs updating as it is showing its age, just like the exterior of the building.There is a good choice of drinks at the bar. The Neuadd had its own micro-brewery but I didn't sample these. I'm sure that a real ale offcianado would love it.The food we had was well cooked and the portion sizes were good.Service was prompt.

A very welcoming hotel, which catered for a variety of travellers including walkers, cyclists in large and small groups, even including dogs. Everybody was catered for in a friendly and obliging manner. The meals were outstanding. The pre-ordered packed lunches were extremely good, as was the delicious afternoon tea and cakes. Altogether a thoroughly good experience. The owners had an extensive knowledge of the area, which they shared with us all.

Stayed in the hotel ate in the restaurant. Amazing food, wide choice of beautifully prepared and presented meals. Such helpful and pleasant waitresses even when they were serving 23 of us at the same time.

We recently had an enjoyable afternoon in here having a bite to eat and a drink or two,we found it friendly and a decent place for a good pub type meal.The service was really good and the food not bad at all,it's not fine dining but if you want a filling meal washed down with a good beer in a friendly enviroment then this place will fit the bill,i should add that prices are very reasonable too.To be honest my Average rating doesn't really do it full justice but then again i couldn't really give it a Very Good,Good - Decent would sum it up.

Eaten here a few times over the years whilst staying in Llanwtryd Wells. Always good food, especially the curries. Decent selection of real ales as well.

We had a couple of meals here when staying locally and were not disappointed, very good portions. Made very welcome.

Please see the photo if you are looking for Screaming Lord Sutch. Only had a coffee. Service was reasonable. The town is better than the pub.

Don't judge it from the outside, food is fantastic and great prices. Owners are friendly and welcoming.

Been there a couple of times these last 40 odd years and I love the place. Nice fireplace with big large sofas. Nice cream tea, good Guinness. Friendly staff

Just popped in for a quiet drink and found the place very homely and comfortable, although quite a large establishment. We didn't have a meal but from what we saw the food looked good.

I was staying in the Town and being a real ale enthusiast and Camra member I was looking forward to trying the Beers from the pub. I felt that I was intruding and the lady serving was very unfriendly and abrupt. The beer was fine but the atmosphere was so unpleasant I drank my beer and left. What a shame.

Great range of real ales, friendly staff and locals, ample pub grub but beware of the hygiene rating.

lamb hot pot was just finebuilders in the corner happy and loudthe place could do with a lick of pain or twoit was the only place serving food on a cold and wet wednesday night so lots of point for not letting us starve

Having read on Trip Advisor that the pub served a good curry we decided to give it a try. We arrive at about 630 on a Thursday evening. There are two bars and a restaurant. We decided to eat in the larger bar as there was no one in the dining room at the time. The bar was full of friendly locals. We ordered three curries - Lamb Rogan, chicken korma and chicken jalfrezi. My husband went for the homemade beef in beer stew with mash. The pub is also a brewery so he thought it should be good. We also ordered two half and halfs (half rice, half chips) and one rice. Three naans and homemade onion bahjis. All served quickly and everything tasted good. My lamb was particularly good.Would recommend eating here. It's a friendly atmosphere and the dining room has had a make over. I thought the bar we were in was looking fairly tired and good do with a make over. But don't let the decor put you off.

Went here on Saturday night for bite to eat with our 2 young children, when we arrived the place was packed out with rally people and had a very good atmosphere. A lovely gentleman at the bar (barmaids husband) found us a table in the snug to eat at. The place was lovely and warm and rammed to the gills full of characters!! The food came out and so did a Welsh male choir who sang joined by the whole bar while we ate our lovely food. Everyone from staff to locals went out of their way to talk to us and make sure we were okay - above and beyond welcome. When we're back in the area we will definitely return for more "red chopper" .

Whilst staying here in llanrwtyd wells we popped in on Friday evening. We went into the bar area and met the locals.They made us very welcome and joined in on the conversations going on that evening. The good was good.The only thing I would say it needs a little more love and care of the building. Definitely needs a new lick of paint.But I would be back.

We passed through the town , needed a rest room , saw the Neuadd Arms Hotel, we were in and found a gem in the area.They have only 65 different types of ales on cask here , whilst writing I have only 62 to go in order to taste all of them.We ordered a sandwich and a dab with sausages and bacon , all was to our satisfaction.Tasted one of the cask beer named High as a Kite 10,5 % very good hoppy ale.We decided to stay overnight in this hotel.We asked the lady at the bar if there were any rooms availablee she confirmed and we booked a room there.The hotel could do with some updating of the rooms ans assume that the new owner will do that in the future.We had some very spacial cider here unfiltered type.Lots of good ales on tap here 65 diferent types which is due to a bear festival in the pub recently.

Stayed in a neighbouring B&B and had food here on two nights. Good food at an acceptable price! Local bitter brewed on site. We had a cracking singsong in the bar after food. 10 grown men should know better!!!

Went to eat in the pub. No room as the pub is tiny. Went into the restaurant. They took our drink order, we ordered a bottle of wine. They then took our food order shortly after. The food arrived, the wine never did. We had to ask again for it, and then twice for a jug of water. The specials board is not in the restaurant so didn't realise that existed till after we had eaten. I wasn't overly impressed with my steak and ale pie. It was more like a stew with a biscuit on top.The waitress asked if we wanted desert, then asked us what we wanted without us even seeing a men. She then reeled off a list of about half a douzen choices and we had to make an instant decision. Not great.Had to leave the restaurant and go and pay at the bar in the next room.Would have liked to have stayed in the pub afterwards and had live music on but the pub is very small so not really any room.Had sampled some of the pub's own ales earlier in the day in another location. Very decent ales which is what drew us there in the first place.All in all, I wouldn't visit this place again.It's worth noting that I'm usually very easily pleased, and far from fussy.

A quirky pub with two bars that brews its own real ale. Handy for the annual World Bog-Snorkelling Championships, as all entrants seem to end up here. It's basic with lots of "colourful" locals if you like people watching.

This place is a bit of a tip to be honest. Peeling paint on the outside and damp on the inside. Full of locals who fell silent as we entered the bar. Had a drink but didn't want to stay for the food - avoid if 'you're not from round ere'!!!

We ate here two nights running as we had enjoyed the first night so much.The pub has a lounge and a separate restaurant room off this and we ate in both - a nice and relaxed atmosphere was had both times.The highlight was a perfectly cooked medium-rare steak, with delicious mushrooms and chips to die for but all the dishes were of a good quality and very reasonably priced.The hotel does a standard menu - steak, scampi, burger, sea bass, lasagne and a few veggie options - plus a specials board and a curry selection (with veggie options again). There are also starter specials. Price-wise mains are typically under £10, although the steak was £12.95 - still excellent value.Staff are very friendly and helpful, as are the locals lining the bar.The hotel has its own brewery and provides a good range of its own beers at low prices (less than £3 a pint).Pub is dog friendly & child friendly.Highly recommended.

We were hungry and every where else was closed, very expensive or served mud pies in the guise of food.We went in to the pub of this hotel expecting to walk out again as we had with other pubs and had a look at the menu. We were surprised to see it was a hotel as well and the dining room looked inviting. So we decided to risk it as other people were eating in there. The menu had a good mix of traditonal British food and curries and lasagne. I was naughty and chose Scampi & Chips my Partner chose beef . casserole and mash. The portions were a good size with good quality ingredients that were cooked to perfection. The chips were magnificent some soft with crispy edges others crispy all through, devine. The beef casserole had good chunky pieces of tender well seasoned meat with a delcious gravy and lovely creamy mash. The other good news is that they have their own brewery and the beer is jolly good. We were so impressed we returned to dine a second night. I had a juicy Sirloin steak Medium rare cooked to perfection with the most beautiful tasty mushrooms and those wonderful chips.£12.95 My partner had the lasagne £7.95 which was full of meat well seasoned with a stunning cheesy sauce topping .The food and drinks were also well priced and the staff and locals were all very friendly. Local famillies were eating here too which is always a good sign Their website is a bit old hat and to look at rooms you need to go to "booking".

enjoyable evening meal. did not stay here. they welcome dogs so if not your cup of tea don't visit, however, we enjoyed our curry and steak meal and good value.

Had a nice meal here, hubby steak and ale pie, said it was delicious, I was envious as I can't eat beef. I was torn between the cheese and onion pie (childhood memories) but opted for vegetable lasagne and I have to say, it was the nicest I have ever eaten, anywhere up to press. Again big portions so no dessert! Ah well! Such is life.

The Neuadd (pronounced Nai-ath) Arms brews its own beers on premises, and they are marvelous. The food is great, too, and the people there are very welcoming and friendly. The Neuadd Arms is simply a wonderful place to eat and drink, especially if you like real cask conditioned ale in an absolutely genuine Welsh pub.

Liked the atmosphere (the two friendly dogs wandering around only add to it!), good food at a good price. The lamb shank was delicious and service was pretty quick.

Everyone gets a friendly welcome from the staff and locals alike; there's excellent food, huge portions, cheap drinks, lively conversation, no piped music or TV - what more could you want?

We had some lovely meals and some fantastic real ale..... The locals were very friendly and made us all welcome. Looking forward to our next visit. Jeepey....

We often eat in the Neuadd when we visit Llanwrtyd and it is very convenient to have lunch or dinner there. They serve

Neuadd Arms is a real local countryside pub (meant as a praise!) serving very nice food - their lamb shank is really great.

Good selection of options (including several curries) - what we had was very tasty. Pub brews its own beers.

we didn't try food because we decided to find abother place to eat. after we seat we were so disgusted of the place that we runed away!!!

We called in here to watch a rugby match while having a weekend away. We were delighted to find that own brew was brewed on the premises, so pint in hand we wandered into the bar to watch the match. After an initial feeling of being outsiders in a local place for local people, we were made to feel welcome by everyone. There was such a nice atmosphere that we decided to stay and eat there after the match. After choosing from a menu with some lovely choices, we enjoyed a lovely meal, good sized portions and decent quality at good prices. The surroundings were in need of a freshen up, but it was comfortable and friendly. I would certainly go back here to eat if in the area again.

It was quiet when we went, but the menu offered great choice. Local produce well-prepared, alongside some interesting curries and other options. We chose a lamb shank and a game casserole. We started with a prawn cocktail and a goats cheese quiche. Everything was delicious. The bar keeps some very interesting real ales, and staff were able to provide very helpful advice to inform my choices. And the costs of the meal were extremely reasonable. All this produced in a very friendly atmosphere.

Foods and the staff recommended. It was a cold day but they warmed our cockles for us. Would go again.

We only took tea in this old pub - it was a beautiful day so we sat outside. We asked for cake and the lady who took our order looked surprised and said she would 'look' - in fact she returned with the tea and some ginger cake which was acceptable. The outside seating area of the pub could do with a clean and a sweep up, but otherwise it was enjoyable.

Warm welcome and excellent pub food............the food was above average and the prices for the quality were extremely reasonable.(cheap is such a horrible word)!

We did not come to Llanwrtyd Wells for the pub or beer, just happened upon it walking round. Then realised it was the tap house for the Heart of Wales Brewery! What a surprise and a great local. Did not want to leave for our dinner booking.

Very old style hotel and restaurant, never to many people in at lunch time, very very hot curry. Standard of food good but NOT over clean, and dogs running around in the restaurant. You will get a warm welcome and good selection of ciders. It needs an update and a deep clean.A small town with a few places to eat but I liked this place, it has a SOMETHING, but I cant say what.

Return visit, very good value. We been for a long walk in the hills and needed a refuel and relax before the next day's expedition. We visited here earlier in the year and remembered that this was close to our B&B so was just the place for a meal and a visit to the town centre.

Stopped here for lunch. Good selection on the menu, with something for everyone. The curries were very good. Tried one of the local beer (Aur Cymru,), which was great. Old fashioned, but intentionally so and all the better for it

Accueil pas chaleureux, pas de sens du service ni de la relation client. nous n'avons pas teste l'hotel mais seulement le restaurant. Deco insignifiante et cuisine normal. Il y avait du monde ce soir là, nous étions transparentes!

On our first night in Llanwrtyd Wells, we walked from the B&B into Town to explore. We chanced in the Neuadd Arms and loved the informal, friendly atmosphere...an old-fashioned pub with good local beers, friendly locals and some good food. Although we did not return there, this was because we were elsewhere on our travels; I would go back if around that area in future.
