Booked in for a meal whilst we’re on a mountain biking trip in the area. Food was absolutely spot on and great value for money. Unfortunately the service was lacking. Many people around us had empty plates for upwards of half an hour and some people had to go to the bar for their own drinks. We managed to order a second set of drinks but after waiting 45 mins decided to pay and leave. We’d also asked for the desert menu that didn’t turn up. Would be understandable if it was majorly busy but it wasn’t! Some staff were just busying themselves with other tasks rather than attending to customers. Very unusual but as mentioned the food was spot on!

Locale nella media, senza tratti distintivi, sia per quanto riguarda il cibo che l'atmosfera che ci si aspetta da un pub gallese, elementi comunque molto soggettivi, per cui forse altri viaggiatori possono apprezzare maggiormente la scelta. Il servizio è apparso curato, i prezzi adeguati.

We phoned up last minute and they got us a table for 2 in the cwtch area. With our 2 irish setters and baby daughter. The staff were lovely. Very friendly and the food was fantastic. Steak was perfect. I would go back for sure. Thank you very much. Jamie & Orla , Wrecsam.

Amazing meal for a special birthday with a large party. We had a huge private room, amazing Sunday roast. The staff were very helpful and considerate, really did anything they could for us. Kids, dogs, all welcome and catered for. We're definitely going to visit again on our next trip and a great choice if staying at nearby plas talgarth. Only regret is not visiting sooner!

First time we have revisited for a meal since it has reopened. The staff were really lovely and the food was excellent. If you are going to have a simple menu, it has to be beautifully cooked, and it was gorgeous. We would thoroughly recommend.

Second visit to The Riverside, just like last time the experience was superb. One of the best Sunday lunches we've had out, everything cooked perfectly, full of flavour, great busy atmosphere friendly staff. Nothing at all to complain about (apart from it being 3 hour drive from home 😂). A great example of how to feed people properly and great value for money too. If your in the area and looking for a great meal, give it a go, superb!

… I’d get a room with a view, & it didn’t disappoint. Room was up a couple of flights of stairs, but it worked the breakfast off. Beautifully presented breakfast, we had the full English on day 1, day 2 I had bacon & egg on toast :-)’’ MrDW had the pancakes, which was the highlight of his day. We absolutely loved the tea, coffee bags which was a 1st for us, hot choccy, & biscuits were best of all. As if we weren’t spoilt enough, we could help ourselves to sparkling or still water, & milk for our drinks, from the fridge on the landing. The bed was comfy, & a king, yet MrDW still managed to fall out of it in the early hours & cut his face on the corner of the bedside table. Loved the bathroom & all the toiletries in there. We didn’t get around to having a drink or food, other than breakfast. So I expect that we shall have to return to do this, & I’d also love to go through that lovely breakfast menu again.
