The Triangle Inn in Powys

This is a beautiful pub tucked away off the road. It has parking very close too. We felt so welcomed when we arrived and the ladies were lovely. We both had the rump steak which was AMAZING! It was a delicious meal to look at and to eat. Once again, the ladies looked after us so well and we would definitely visit again next time we're in Wales. PS. Did you look up the Flumps?!

Delicious lamb shank and sensibly priced drinkable wine. What's not to like? Service was very good and we would definitely return.

What a wonderful little place, full of chatter and a lovely aroma of food. Visited tonight and we all had (4) different meals from the great menu - this then ended with 4 empty plates. Fresh local produce cooked to perfection, attentive and friendly staff, warm and inviting environment. A great little place and well worth a visit!!! Thank you to all staff and a nod to the Chef - we left with happy memories.

The Triangle booked us in for the wrong night and made no effort to rectify their mistake other than to suggest we ate quickly. Had no option but to leave and go elsewhere. Very poor customer service. This is the first time we tried the Triangle and it is the last.

Acted on a recommendation at our accomodation, so glad we paid a visit as our meals were absolutely lovely. We spoke to guests at adjoining tables and they were also particularly impressed with the quality, portion sizes and the fairly short time taken to deliver meals & drinks to our tables. Staff were helpful and friendly and made every effort to allocate us a table at what was obviously a very busy time. We would recommend that a reservation is made well in advance of any planned visit to avoid dissapointment.

I had the lamb shank it didn't taste of anything, my partner had the fish cakes which were very dry and tasteless how this place gets A 5 star I don't know .... sorry 16th century pub you need to get with the times

The best traditional little gem. Staff are the most happiest friendliest people who give to the warmest of welsh welcomes. Menu is great. Such flavoursome meals. Options for different style potatoes. Good list of specials on the menu too. Will visit again as there is so much on the menu I would like to try! The story of the food linked to the nearby farm is great and well worth supporting this pub

The Triangle offer Excellent food and you get a very warm welcome couldn’t fault anything there . I advise ringing and booking a table has it’s a very busy place! Staff are friendly and there a good varied menu and choice of drinks ! Take a look at the Menu and The Specials board has it full of Great meals . Overall this place is worth visiting with also an outside that you can eat in!

Had high hopes after being told it was the best place to eat in Rhayader. Waited an hour for our food and found it to be average, chicken curry was unimaginative, fish goujons overdone and couldn't help but wonder if the mashed potato was from a packet, Generally disappointing and more expensive than other pub food in town. Would not recommend.

We had such a great welcome when enquiring about take away food: the lady at the bar was most helpful, making suggestions and doing what she could to help us out. The food itself was delicious and a great portion. A lovely place all around.

We were on an overnight stay ( my daughter and I ) ,and googled best places to eat.Called, and fully booked-but Heidi was so helpful, and said she would do her best for a table, we may just need to wait ( not knowing how long people will stay to eat) Got there to the warmest welcome by Heidi, super lovely and an asset to the business.Atmosphere cosy and lovely .Food was served by a lovely waitress, cod was huge and divine. Chips to die for! Locally sourced meat..my daughter had Venison burger and loved it. Local ales.Delicioud food .Warmest welcome.Clean.Beautiful historic building with amazing views, and food so reasonably priced. First time here, will be pur go to, next time we are in Wales.Thank you.

We've visited the Triangle before and this is a place to definitely return to! We ate here twice over the weekend and as like last time, the food was perfect and the staff are so friendly and attentive. We also stayed in the cottage, which is directly opposite the pub. The cottage was just perfect for the two of us. It was warm, well equipped and very cosy! Will we visit a third time? Yes and yes! We love it here and thank you for welcoming us!

What a find! Such a lovely little pub that sources local for its ingredients. A fabulous specials menu and all my fussy four children found something they were happy to eat. The owner was a lovely friendly man, who made sure we enjoyed our evening. We had a cracking table near a fish tank tucked away. The food was excellent too. As a family of six, eating out is pricey so we only tend to do one evening meal out as a family and we just pray we pick well and we aren’t disappointed! This was definitely a win and when we return to the area we will definitely be back to enjoy the lovely atmosphere again.

Recommended by our host but we were already aware of this little gem. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere with proper beer. Extensive specials board in addition to normal menu. Enjoyed it so much we ate here on each night of our 3 nights stay. Everything we ordered was quality and good value. If you're staying in the area definitely worth a visit. Best to book as the season progresses but it was fine to just walk I when we visited.

Really good quality tasty affordable food, great service And we had a vegan in our party who also really enjoyed their meal

Called and asked if they could accommodate us for food quite late, they were very helpful even though the kitchen was due to close, Heidi even called back to see if we were almost there, very friendly and charismatic place, our little one was given a present whilst we were there, the food was fantastic, so glad we stopped here, its a bit far for us to visit more regularly but we will definitely be comong here again

What an outstanding meal we all had at The Triangle in Rhayader. From the welcome to the service and the good food it has to have been one of the tastiest and most beautifully presented meal we have all had in a long time. The pub had an old fashioned welcome with interested things to look at all around. If you are visiting Rhayader we highly recommend you visit here. Thank you to all the staff who served us, what a little gem of a place you have.

We visited this place on recommendation from my sister who lives in Rhayader.We have come from Dorset.I can honestly say the best food by far.We had the rump steak,rib eye,lasagne,whitebait,Welsh lamb burger. We had come back for a second night as food was so good.On return we wouldn’t hesitate to come back.Service excellent and a lovely ambiance. Hope to see you soon guys thanks 🙏

Outstanding meal at an affordable price. A comprehensive menu and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. Will definitely be returning.

Ahidden gem,Very busy for midweek out of season. Fair choice on menu,well priced.When delivered a large platefull well cooked,made up for the long wait(nearly 1hr)

following recommenndation from a cafe in town by the clock tower and a previous visit many years ago we booked (luckily as busy) for evening meal - the food arrived in good time and both meals were excellent

Just had a great meal, staff lovely and friendly, even though just here for a few days would definitely come back when in the area again

We ate here this evening and were very impressed with the food. Great value for money in a very cosy pub oozing with character and charm.

Preboooked a table here for Saturday 23rd September 2023 as we knew it would be busy, was recommended by an ex work colleague so we thought we would give it a try. My partner had the venison burger and I had the 12 oz rump steak both meals were spot on and good value for money - the burger and steak were very tasty. We will definitely come here again as we found the pub very friendly with a good atmosphere love these old country pubs. Thanks Mark.

The Triangle is a short walk from the centre of Rhayader, approximately a pleasant 10mins walk. A very busy pub so advisable to book. Service was very good as was the steak and I will return in 2024

Very disappointed, it was recommended by several people, and we looked forward to going, on arrival we were seated in the bar only to be confronted by someone eating their dinner with a big dog on their lap, we ordered drinks and our food, on arrival the steaks, which we were advised were supplied by the farmer who owned the pub and were good, were in fact not, very thin and overcooked, we decided nor to complain but did not finish our meals, the chips were also overcooked, however we asked by one of the staff about our experience and advised her of our dissatisfaction, she apologised and removed on of the steaks from the bill. I do like original and historical places but this place is in a very poor state of repair, the toilets which are across the road are best described as agricultural, very poor, would not like to have to go ther on a wet winters evening, sorry, we will not return

Fabulous little pub with great home cooked food . Friendly welcoming service. Dogs allowed. Seating inside and out. Best pub in the town and very reasonable prices too. Good beer good wine. What can I say!? We went 3 nights in a row during our 3 night stay

Essentially good but standard pub grub - not much more is available in Rhyader. Gets crowded, probably because of the good reviews, so even in September during the week it's necessary to book, preferably several days in advance. The evening we were there, they were full. A starter was produced quite quickly but then we had to wait over an hour for the main course which wasn't anything special. They really could have done with more staff bother serving and in the kitchen. There are other options in Rhyader which are almost as good although Rhyader doesn't offer much variety for evening meals anyway.

Lamb cooked to perfection. So tender. Menu is great, showing the link the food has to the local area. Loads on the specials board. Traditional pub. I would say booking is essential and they were super busy for a week night

A stunning little charming pub with amazing food customer service and atmosphere we found it by chance on a little impromptu dog walk /explore so we decided we would come and try it out for our 1st anniversary meal and it was wonderful staff are so friendly and the is food amazing (highly recommend the whale and chips - I'm not kidding when I say the fish is the size of a whale) we enjoyed it so much and made a wonderful memory for our 1st wedding anniversary so much we will be back whenever we find five minutes to pop a few miles down the road for a meal out Thanks for the great food and hospitality

Lovely pub with lovely staff. Fabulous food too. I had the Rabbit stew, it was amazing! The mash with it was spectacular. A great experience.

In the area on holiday and really struggled to find somewhere nice to eat. Drove past the pub on our way cycling and reading the reviews it sounded lovely. Couldn’t get through on the phone to book, but managed to get a cosy table outside. Great selection of homemade pub food and specials, and a great meni for the kids. Food came quickly, we were checked upon that all was OK, and everyone loved their meals! A great find- wish they did lunch or were able to book online. One thing that we didn’t really like (and just is being maybe a bit picky!) the tag line at the end of the kids menu to ask grown ups for pudding… not a great marketing ploy. Will be returning on our next holiday to the area.

This is an unpretentious pretty little 16th century pub. Hanging baskets and a small outside seating area. We ate here two nights running while staying in Rhayader. Portions are generous, prices reasonable and the food good. What stood out for us though was the efficiency...

Lovely meal last night. Very friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Why didn't we eat here? We booked a table fo0r early evening. Arrived in time. Placed order within 15 minutes of booked time. Then we waited....and waited....and waited. After 2 hours, having seen booked tables inside and unbooked tables outside having been served 2 courses...

Excellent staff ,excellent service, excellent food ,very good beer selection, could not fault , happy days , spot -on 👍👍😀

If you want a family meal out, this is not the place to do, unless of course you have eaten a three course meal before hand, we went here and waited 2 hours for our food and still after this didn’t get our food, poor...

Absolutely ridiculous. 2 hours waiting for food. Asked several times when we might expect to be fed, every time told we were next and then meals served elsewhere. When challenged on this the chef came out to shout that he was cooking as fast as...

Excellent food, great beer, great service. Staff were very busy, but cheerful and attentive. Very small pub but a very warm welcome.

This local Inn maintains and deserves its number 1 status in Rhayader for its warm welcome wonderful food cosy atmosphere and attempts to accommodate your every need (where possible) Very sad to see a poor review from a local who surely should have known better...

Love this pub as being locals.However visited Wednesday night..booking for 6.30.. Placed on cramped table in-between two tables to sit 4... Back chairs wedged between wall then pews of other seats in next tables.. we are two slight ladies and found this difficult to eat...

Great atmosphere for a great dinner. Friendly staff. Vegan options on menu and on specials board. Great river view.

Marvellous friendly hostelry in delightful Rhayader. We had delicious lamb shanks washed down with lovely real ale.

Warm welcome from friendly, attentive staff, serving delicious locally sourced food at fair prices. It really show that the people care about their business and their customers. Book in advance

It may be a case of booking before you arrive as this pub gets very busy. The pub is located a very short walk out of town across the river bridge heading out towards the Elan valley. It’s a smallish pub but there are bench...

After four days of mountain walking, we chose this venue for the group’s farewell dinner with eight of us in total. Our table wasn’t quite ready for our 7.30 reservation but we ordered drinks at the outside picnic tables. I ordered the Lamb Shank which...

What a friendly, relatively cheap, high quality pub. The food was really very good and the staff were chatty and dealt with a table of 11 with no problem at all. Would definitely visit again.

Fantastic local food and great friendly service A must book place as always busy , ate here 5 out of 7 nights as unable to get a table due to us not booking in advance

What a little hidden treasure! You can feel the history of the place (16th century building), really cosy with phantastic freshly prepared homemade food from local produce. The best veggie lasagne I’ve ever tried, followed closely by equally tasty veggie chilli - so many fresh...

Great, friendly service. Food was devine, very reasonably priced. Would definitely return next time I'm in this part of the country

Small and characterful pub that serves excellent beer and excellent food. The staff were first rate and served up a feast of good food for our party of 12. No complaints and a dozen satisfied dinners. I can recommend anything off the menu. Keep up...

This lovely village pub serves great food. It’s not huge so do book ahead! Atmosphere was good and service was great. I had ribs and my husband had rabbit stew - both were delicious. We also managed puddings which were also lovely. The pub was...

Fantastic little pub, very popular so booking is a must on the weekend. Food was great and the staff couldn’t be more helpful. Will return!

Good choice of food and beers available. Plenty of vegertarian options. Very friendly and welcoming staff.

A local b&b suggested the triangle for food and I'm so glad they did! The staff were really friendly and looked after us so well. The food is mainly local too, which always gives me confidence! The lamb was divine! We'll be back!

Wonderful treat after a big day out in the hills. Will be back for certain. Great ale lovely local food . Very welcoming.

Found this lovely little pub via recommendation online. Lovely friendly atmosphere and good wholesome food. Service was excellent and prices very reasonable. We went three out of four nights as we were so impressed with the place. Dog friendly too. Will definitely visit again in...

Lovely friendly pub, good food, and lovely staff. 6 of us had a few pints and food and all of us were very happy with our choices.

Lots of gluten free food options available. Log fire burning was a great touch for us and the dog to warm up after a long hike. Really friendly staff, we will certainly be back

A hidden gem - booked for Saturday night as staying in local area. There was a good choice from the menu as well as specials but pleased with our choices which were delicious especially the duck and generous portions. Staff friendly and attentive. I would...

Six of us visited this old pub, the butcher in the village said it was a good pub for food, how right he was…… we all had a great meal, can definitely recommend the Steak and the Lamb special went down well also.

I read the reviews on TripAdvisor when trying to find somewhere the 4 of us would be happy with and one stood out with the words "hidden gem" I always laugh because what you class as a hidden gem is not necessarily what others would,...

Wonderful quaint traditional pub serving home reared beef and lamb which were both delicious You need to book as they get very busy owing to being so small All staff were welcoming and friendly. Very reasonably priced and will definitely return The toilets are outside...

Myself and my partner were staying near by for the weekend. On the Saturday we wanted to go somewhere for food and seen the Triangle Inn was number 1 in Rhayader and having visited I can see why. Service, food and overall experience is 5...

we ordered the Lamb Cutlets , lamb shank and Several children dishes. The lamb was excellent , but the portions were huge, so you might to share a dish. The service was friendly and the efficient. However the tables were sticky, so much so that...

What a gem in what is otherwise a bit of a fine dining vacuum. Very welcoming staff, we all had steak. All of us were very pleased with the quality of the ingredients and the cookery.

Delicious food from the field to the fork. Good honest local food. Highly recommend! Excellent Service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We booked at the Triangle Inn as it had got good reviews for its food. They were not big on starters but when we saw the size of the mains, it was obvious why. I had rack of ribs and my partner had steak. Both...

Went on recommendation and then noticed it was number 1 in Rhayader. It was excellent, the best steaks We’ve had in a very long time. All the food was cooked and presented well. Quirky 16th century setting.

We came across this delightful pub on our way back from the Elan Valley. We hadn't made a reservation but managed to get the last inside table ( reservation is highly recommended). The staff were so friendly and accommodating and the food was wonderful. Portion...

We arrived on a busy Saturday evening (having walked more than 8 miles to get there) without a reservation. Nevertheless, they were kind enough to find us a table and served an excellent meal and a nice couple of pints. Very friendly and accommodating.

Came to this pub on recommendation from the campsite and caravan club we were staying at. The food was fantastic and they served locallly produced beers, ales and gin and all the staff who worked there were really friendly and full of banter. The pub...

Excellent food, service and the pub has so much character. We went twice in the few days we stayed in the area as it was so nice, we will be returning for sure. I honestly can’t speak highly enough of the food and staff. This...

Lovely quirky little pub, really nice food we both had the ribeye steak would definitely recommend! Worth booking as only small place and was full even on a week day evening

Beautiful pub and great food the meat comes from a local farm and you can tell we liked it so much we visited twice they were very friendly even though very busy managed to fit us in.

There is not a great choice for eating in the evening in Rhayader but our host pointed us in the direction of The Triangle. Lovely welcome in this old quirky pub with decent beer and decent pub grub. It’s not huge so booking is advised...

Had a lovely meal at The Triangle Inn Warm welcome from staff, food lovely, sadly too full to have pudding, but they looked great.

It’s been a few years since we visited this great little pub. We were staying just outside Rhayader and wanted to treat ourselves to a good meal and a few drinks. The food was exactly what we wanted and cooked to perfection. I can recommend...

Varied menu, they can actually cook a blue steak. Excellent beer and good service. Love this place, will be back next year.

We just had a delicious dinner topped off by friendly and fast service. My partner had the duck that was done to perfection and I had a juicy burger. We shared a pavlova dessert that was the perfect finish. We’re visitors to the area and...

We visited the pub in the middle of Carnival day. The pub was extremely busy inside and out. But we managed to get a table for 4 being 2 couples, we ordered our drinks and had a look at the menu. We ordered 3 fish...

This pub is slightly outside the centre of Rhayader but well worth a visit. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food good with healthy portions, and the beer well-kept. Probably the best pub we visited during our stay in the area. One unusual characteristic...

We have eaten here several times over the past years, when visiting the area. It took several attempts to get through on the phone to make a booking but we eventually got through. On arrival we were greeted by friendly staff , we ordered our...

I noticed little pub on my return from the Elan Valley and decided that this was going to be the place for dinner. This was my last night of a 2 week visit to Rhayader and I’m so disappointed to have only just discovered the...

Staying at Elan Oak Caravan site and went into Ryayader to The Triangle Inn for a meal. Loved how quant and quirky it was from the moment we saw it. The service was very friendly and made us feel very welcome. My husband had the...

A charming venue but wIth a 4.5 star rating we had expected a little more. Service was friendly but very slow, the menu was temporary but not everything was available, and the food when eventually received was rather mediocre. Perhaps we had arrived on an...

As requested phoned before hand to let them know I was bringing a dog, as they dog and non dog areas. Very friendly staff and food was to a very high standard. Unfortunately no lamb shank, but the ribs and trimmings were a very tasty...

We were recommended to come here by the owner of the Penralley BnB and were not disappointed! Lovely welcome and the food was incredible! I'd recommend!

Visited here a few weeks ago with some colleagues / friends. Always a great atmosphere and being local, bound to see someone you know. Whether you’re from away or nearby, the staff are always friendly and polite. They still had the temporary Covid menu but...

Wonderful food, lovely staff. Highly recommend. Steak with pepper sauce and ribs so tasty and well cooked.

Welcoming staff, and cosy comfortable atmosphere but food disappointing. The local lamb specials were awful cuts and poorly cooked, with no flavour, and expensive. Accompanying chips and peas were mediocre.

I have to confess this is our local but I wouldn’t write a review unless it was worthy of a comment. Alison the landlady and Garth the chef, along with the supporting team are simply wonderful. Relaxed atmosphere, warm welcome, fantastic food and accompanied with...

Nice service and reliable booking arrangements in this quaint little old pub. Comfortable and cosy surroundings and nice but basic bar meals. Particularly recommend the lasagne and the chicken curry. Drinks reasonable and service very good. We have been several times and its our go-to...

Friendly atmosphere with a nice log fire, excellent food and very reasonably priced drinks. The staff were very welcoming and attentive.

Not the easiest pub to find on a cold foggy evening but Google helped!! We had been advised to book as The Triangle is not very big. This was not a problem on said cold foggy night!! Great steaks and good beer. Locals visiting the...
