The Horseshoe Inn in Powys

Great food and great atmosphere

We go here at least twice a week. Nia and Paul always make us very welcome. We play pool and eat regularly. The food is home cooked, always piping hot and tasty. As are the Sunday lunches. Highly recommended.

You ger a very warm welcoming as soon as you walk through the door. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The food is of a high standard (recommended booking for Sunday lunch). Beers and Ales are good. Especially the Butty Bach.

This is probably the best pub food I've had. Plenty of food on the plate, puddings were excellent. Very good price. Great staff .It's well worth a visit.

We booked this place for Sunday lunch purely on reviews so feel I must say they were absolutely correct. We were on our way to visit relatives so we looked for somewhere not far from our destination. This seemed to fit the bill. We asked for coffee when we arrived which arrived quickly and was well received. While drinking it we perused the menu. I chose breaded Brie with cranberry sauce as a starter and my husband chose the garlic mushrooms. Both were delicious and a good size for a starter. For the main course I had the turkey and my husband had the beef. It arrived piping hot and was served promptly by friendly waitresses. The amount was more than adequate with both roast and mashed potatoes and 3 different vegetables. We were so full we could not manage a pudding but they looked delicious. I can recommend this place whole heartedly. You will not be disappointed. I would advise booking a table as people were being turned away as they were fully booked. I completely understand why this place is so popular.

What an amazing place. Full of character, and the most beautiful home-made food. Genuinely home-made too. Try the Bailey's cheesecake ... it's so rich and light! Highly highly recommend a visit. A wonderfully authentic place 😊

Nice food, nice beer and a lovely place to have lunch after a bracing walk up Rodney's Pillar.

Great Sunday roast and superb service from all of the staff.

If you are looking for a relaxed pub atmosphere with great home cooked food with friendly welcoming staff this pub offers just that ! Great meal and Home made chips were the best !

Great hospitality and home cooked food. We called last minute to see if they could accommodate 7 of us for a meal and the laddy who answered was very warm and lovely. We had a great meal and were stuffed afterwards!

Nice pub, shame the food was not available; would return

Family holiday in a cottage! OMG what a find for a superb Sunday lunch. Owners made us feel very welcome each time we went into…

Really lovely stay for B&B. Landlady and landlord were really welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was beautiful!

If we could give the horse shoe inn 5 stars plus, then i would. Friendly and helpful and pleasent , Nia and Paul and there daughter made us so welcome. We are staying for 5 days. Our room is super and the meals are really good. The locals have made us so welcome we enjoyed the evenings It's a oldly worldly inn, with some quirky signs around the walls. Will diffently recommend to others. We have returned this year. Nia and Paul have been decorating the bedrooms and the dining room area it all looks really nice.They are a lovely couple who make you very welcome. Breakfasts and evening meals have good choices and are cooked to perfection. Highly recommended.

Stopped on the way back from Manchester with one of our dogs. Very friendly staff and locals. Super fast service, good food and gorgeous Bailey's cheesecake and good portion sizes.

We went in a group of four without booking and the lady found us a table , and we ordered food which was really good quality, tasty and reasonably priced ✅ highly recommend

Roaring inglenook on arrival, variety of drinks for all the family, great hosts and an excellent meals at reasonable prices.

Birthday bash. Everyone was pleased with the food and service. Nice pub.

Fabulous Sunday lunch, great food and great value.

Nice atmosphere friendly service

Brilliant food and staff as always

Amazing staff, great welcome and brilliant food.

Very good staff Very good service. Big thank you.

We called in without booking and they were able to squeeze us in for Sunday lunch despite being fully booked already. The food was absolutely superb - perfectly cooked, lovely fresh ingredients, and the service from everyone was impeccable. We may be over 230 miles from home, but we will definitely return when we are next in the area. The car park was full and we can see why!

Delicious Sunday lunch with proper gravy. Staff were friendly and very efficient. We recommended this to our friends and they were not disappointed

Stopped off for a beer after our canal walk. A nice couple of pints in lovely, friendly pub. Will definitely stop there again.

My husband and l were on a journey from Haverfordwest to Cheshire and stopped for lunch at The Horseshoe Inn at Arddleen for lunch. It was without doubt the best pub lunch l have ever tasted. I had roast turkey with stuffing, pigs in blankets and Allen had pork beef and turkey. All very tasty and served with mash potatoes, roast potatoes, parsnip, carrot, beans and cauliflower and broccoli cheese. Everything cooked to perfection. I followed my main course with the tastiest Irish Cream cheesecake. I consider myself something of a connoisseur of cheesecakes and this was definitely beyond compare! Staff were warm and friendly. Will definitely eat there again and would recommend the place to royalty.

Sunday lunch was gorgeous. Best Sunday lunch ever. All fresh veggies and lovely gravy to accompany the meats and roast potatoes. Desserts were very nice too..

Lovely meal and friendly atmosphere

Called on 29/06/23 for food during the afternoon. Food is not served during the afternoon, contrary the information displayed on the Horse Shoe website.

Stayed here for a friend's wedding and felt really welcome, nice clean pub and rooms was also nice and comfy.

We visited midday with our dogs so eat in the bar with option to eat outside. Good selection of good pud food, we had pie, chicken and burger and all really impressed would strongly recommend a visit. We will be back, staff very friendly and well priced

Good country pub full of locals, good pint of butty Bach.

Good homecooked pub food and friendly staff

Had a meal with my family here and it was won of the best I have ever had. Fantastic food and service definitely recommend

We found this little gem after booking the wrong pub! They managed to fit us in though , a couple very kindly let us have their table in the resturant, the owners made us fell very welcome, we had Sunday lunch which was absolutely delicious! The best Sunday lunch we have had for a long time , would definitely eat here again, so glad we found it

Real farmer Brown pub this and no sports tv, so don't be wanting to have a couple and watch footie. Still friendly and welcoming though.

Had such a warm welcome from the staff at the Horse Shoe .My Sunday lunch was amazing then I foolishly I ordered pudding which was fantastic. It's a credit to the owner and cooks.We will be back soon.Thank you .

We had heard that Sunday lunch was popular here, so we managed to book in. All I can say is, it was one of the best Sunday Lunches I have had in a long time. Faultless, Delicious, Homemade and Great Service.

Just got home after a two night stay, everything was spot on, my room was clean & very well presented, breakfast was included and superb with choice of tea or coffee, cereals, full cooked or a combination of both!! We also had an evening meal both nights which again was excellent home cooked food, I'm very happy to recommend the apple & berry crumble as it was the best I've ever tasted! All this combined with hosts that nothing was too much trouble for. Thanks for the stay and good luck for the future.

Excellent tasty food, piping hot, good sized portions, cheerfully served in a comfortable environment, reasonably priced.

We had a lovely experience, popped in for something to eat on the way upto Manchester with the family, food was excellent and good value plus very good service and dog friendly.

After travelling over from the south east of England for our holiday, we were all eager and hungry for a delicious Sunday roast! THE HORSE SHOE INN DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Delicious starter, divine main and a delectable dessert. Catered for our bow-wow with trimmings and water and was just over all accommodating on every request. Thank you, would definitely recommend ❤️

Fabulous proper home cooked food and really good customer service. Catered for 9 of us , all different dishes and it was all freshly prepared and cooked. Good choice on menu too..and the deserts were delicious!!

We only went for a drink. We felt it was a lovely pub but not very welcoming nobody asked if we We wanted to eat . Barmaid quite busy so I suppose that's why . But still didn't feel comfortable my option of course

We just went for an evening meal - good tasty homemade pub grub - service was excellent - would highly recommend

Lovely place with great outside beer gardens looking forward to coming back ❣️🤗

This is a lovely pub, run by a nice, friendly couple. They serve a good range of beers, and excellent food. I recently had the (lovely, old fashioned) gammon. It's a few hundred metres from the Montgomery canal, an excellent place to start or finish a walk, or include in a canal pub crawl.

Very friendly reception and great freshly cooked food. Beer was great too 😁👍

We fine here on a regular basis. Nia and her staff are fantastic. Nothing is too much trouble. There is a pool room at the back where we spend many a happy hour. The food is home made and there are always a couple of specials. Everything is always fresh, piping hot and we'll presented. Mackenzie served us tonight and she was attentive and had a good table manner. Anybody wanting a first class home cooked meal would be be pushed to find better. Highly recommend.

Amazing food, quality, taste, presentation, service everything was just perfect! Cannot recommend highly enough, staff and management take so much pride in what they do, lovely village pub 😀

Great food and wonderful accomodating hosts

Had the most amazing meal here tonight. We could not fault. The seabass was cooked to perfection with tasty fresh vegetables. True home cooking and the service is excellent. The staff and waitress were wonderful and this place goes over and above to look after you. Thank you all.

Najpierw nie byłam przekonana. Ot zwykły pub jakich wiele. Byliśmy tam w porze lunchu. Okazało się że jedzenie jest przepyszne:) A obsługa przemiła:) LOVELY FOOD, great atmosphere.

Impromptu visit for lunch whilst out walking. Excellent home cooked food, friendly staff, good value for money. Highly recommend a visit, only negative instant coffee.

What a great find! Heading North after a holiday and this is a gem to stumble across. Beautifully homemade meals that are absolutely delicious, with fantastic friendly service. Catered brilliantly for all of the kids and they loved being able to play in the garden while we waited for food as well. The perfect pit stop, thank you so much!

4 of us had one of the best steaks ever , cannot fault the food , also very friendly staff ,well worth a visit. Would definitely go again . Great job Darren , keep up the good work .

Excellent service and excellent food. Lovely atmosphere 😁

Great with social distancing measures, great Sunday lunch too

Friendly pub. Great locals. Dog friendly.

Great prices and the pub is now available to Let, with the right landlord could be gold mine, and today August 2nd 2019 at noon the new landlord took over, so here's wishing him a happy new start. Cheers 🍻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

The new landlord is great. Can't comment on the food because kitchen not open yet hence the missing star. I'm expecting to see changes here.

Stayed here for my brothers stag do and was pleasantly surprised. Staff and owners are very friendly and the food is absolutely superb! Thank you very much!

Stopped off on our way to North Wales for a party I had Gammon egg & jacket potato. ( doing slimming world so it suited me ) My husband had Hunters Chicken which he really enjoyed. It was really busy at the time we were there Staff were friendly

We were walking along and saw there was a pub 1 mile down the road. It was 30 degrees and we were really thirsty.

Lovely local pub used by the customers at Trail Riding UK. The staff server great homemade food in a friendly relaxed atmosphere.

We went out as a family of ten and were made extremely welcome straight away. We had a large table in the bar. The menu was lovely,we chose soups,prawn cocktail,pate and mozzarella sticks,all were huge portions and very tasty. Our mains were roast beef,pork,chicken and a cod,when they arrived,the portions again were massive,with the best roast potatoes we've ever had out. With five choices of veg and mashed potatoes too,the meats were amazing and the vegetables fantastic. Now to pudding,all homemade,we had chocolate fudge cake,apple crumble,lemon meringue pie,cheesecake,they were all fabulous. All in all,we had a great meal meal out,well served and hot. Our only wish was we'd visited before. We'll definitely be back,next time with our dog !

absolutely hated this place!! i had to work here for a short period of time and i was mistreated wasn't getting paid my right amount of wages, i have witnessed them drop food on the floor and still force me to serve it to the poor customers the dog was always in the kitchen and so was the dog food. they asked me to clean the counters and they were thick with grease as if they haven't cleaned it in a long time.everything was frozen but wasn't kept in an hygienic way. they told me to clean the inn that wasn't my job to do and even told me to clean their flat part of the pub. they didn't pay me my proper wadge on new years eve and new years day but instead fired me stating that i was always late and wasn't reliable which i was because i always made sure i was their before my shift started. i have been witness to most of these complaints as well and THEY ARE CORRECT they do try and take your deposits!!!!

The horseshoe inn is a lovely local pub with quality food and an amazing selection of beers and gins. All eleven of us ordered different meals and ALL were perfect. The staff were so welcoming, would definitely visit again.

Food was of a great quality and of a good portion size, owners were warm and welcoming and were willing to assist with any of our needs, would definitely visit the horseshoe inn if in and around the area again

Fantastic home cooked food with nice drinks and a very friendly, welcoming set of staff. They made us feel right at home allowing us to take over the duke box and the pool table. If ever in the area again, I will be sure to pay a visit!

11 of us stayed at the Horseshoe for a Stag weekend and had a fantastic time. The owners were lovely and very accommodating, always asking if there's anything we needed and even flexible around the breakfast times after we'd had a heavy night.Food was brilliant, everyone in our group agreed. The accommodation itself was basic, but it got the job done and at the end of the day it allowed for a very relaxed atmosphere. We weren't worried about accidentally breaking expensive luxury fittings, or having to tip toe around.Seen a lot of bad reviews around stag do's on here which were slightly off putting, but all I can say is treat others how you want to be treated. We were respectful and polite whilst having a good time... I think the owners appreciated that and as a result were completely flexible and even offered to keep the bar open a bit later. We had no problem getting our deposit back. Would 100% book again.

I have always had good meals at this pub/restaurant and was looking forward to a Sunday lunch there today. Asked if I wanted a full or small meal I went for the full one expecting it to beat me. When it came unfortunately it was very thin on the ground hardly any meat, no potatoes mash or boiled just a couple of roasters. The price had gone up since my last visit so added to the small portion I was extremely disappointed.

Had our second meal now here and both times lovely home cooked food with generous portions. Made welcome by staff and locals and will definitely visit again. This sort of local rural pub needs to be supported.

My wife and I tried here for the first time on recommendation from friends. The restaurant its self was spotless and the staff very pleasant and friendly. We were served by Robyn who was very polite. My wife had the Salmon fish cakes which she said was full of flavour. I had a beef madras curry and rhe meat was tender and dull of flavour. We will be returning.
