Three Tuns in Powys

Wish it was nearer to my house so I could go more often!! Beautiful 😍

Great little pub, the food was great accommodated us without a reservation with a decent selection of beers and some nice vegan options.

Beautiful old pub. Hidden gem down the Bottom of hay town . Service was friendly and prompt once the place got busy. Beer was great ales on the ball. Food was only Sunday fare on, which was great . Bit tight on meat portion and roasts where cool. Cauliflower cheese was cold, but the fresh veg were pipping hot. Give it a try . Prices were about average.

We had the platter to start and it was amazing, you get a lot for your money. We followed it up with some delicious pizza.

Nice old country pub and good Sunday lunch. The a la carte menu is not available on Sundays though.

A beautiful old fashioned pub tastefully renovated with mostly all the original features. HPA / Three Tuns Best / Butty Bach on tap, with a wide selection of lagers. Beef Ragu was sensational, we will definitely make a return visit in the future. 10/10

Three of us had lunch on 18/09/2024. I had 3 bruchetta: two caprese and one cannelloni: delicious. My wife had the salmon tagliatelle, also delicious. Our friend had the platter which was amazing feast: meat, cheeses, olives, salads, bread and breadsticks... fabulous. My wife and I enjoyed the local Wye Valley Brewery Nightjar stout on tap. Had I not been driving I would have tried the Three Tuns bitter, also on tap. The service was good and the staff super helpful. I have to admit that my heart sank when I first viewed the menu as it was mainly Italian plus some burger choices; but I hadn't realized that it's all freshly prepared and not out of a packet. The prices were very reasonable too. What a happy discovery. Highly recommended.

Roast dinner was so delicious we went back a day later for another meal. We ordered the prawn linguine and the burger, both were fantastic, one of the best burgers I have eaten. Would 100% recommend the food, service was friendly too

Sadly must give a poor review. Our portions of a beef brisket pasta dish (£15 each with no garnish) came as starter size portions. Mine had almost no meat. The response was sorry. We left hungry and disappointed. We're not greedy eaters but like a fair deal.

The three tuns, where do I even begin to deplore my gratitude. It was a special place, with historic wood, plentiful beer and a hilarious barman. We had such a splendid time, that we had to come back again. I'd eat that burger again that's for sure!

On a drizzly gloomy day Me the other half and our little dog had a fab u lous lunch at The Three Tuns. Pizza and a salmon tagliatelle with the best garlic bread had in a long time. Very attentive staff and quirky 5* Dan made it a lovely lunch

We joined the family here for dinner one Monday evening. It was extremely busy and the staff looked to be struggling to cope. When the waitress delivered the drinks we all slowly unwrapped our cutlery to use the serviettes to mop up the mess. When we asked about the provenance of the meat the waiter said he didn't know! Honest I guess but there was no effort to find out. And don't be fooled by the term 'slaw'-in reality it's a teaspoon of dried carrot and rubbery red cabbage. I should have given one star but it was good they were open on a Monday.

Great pub. Best in Hay. Plenty of welcoming staff on hand. Food options very good, especially the pizzas. Good beer and good gin..... Great ambiance - an ideal busy country pub. Just what you'd expect in this part of the world.

Lovely pub dating from 1600, family run with good beers and well cooked Italian food. Great service and good atmosphere.

Lovely pizza and pasta, good choice of drinks. The evening we went many of the desserts were unavailable.

Friendly staff, excellent food. Very good price. Would highly recommend if you like Italian food

Good place for food and drink. Especially nice pizzas. Very friendly and helpful staff. Will come again.

Booked a Sunday roast for two Arrived at 2pm booking was at 2.30 pm Place was so busy the two lads behind the bar … fair play they were 2 staff down On a bank holiday Sunday ! Two really great personalities behind the jump , couldn’t do enough for all bookings and always tried to help walk ins as much as they could Watkins cider need more of this in my life .. Anyway Sunday lunch was blinding Soup starter parsnip & potato was lovely Followed by the roast beef dinner with the best ever Yorkshire I’ve been served in a pub ! Thanks guys

Lovely local Italian restaurant. Very family and pet friendly!! Staff are lovely and we're very welcoming to all guests. Food is stunning will definitely be back!!

Friendly staff Nice vibe in there. Tasty food.

Took the family for a Sunday roast - excellent food and very reasonable prices. The veg was cooked to perfection and the gravy was particularly good. Will visit again.

Excellent food, the pasta was gorgeous. Definitely recommend

Absolutely amazing food, really good service. Was in town for a holiday and this place absolutely blew my mind. Service, descriptions, everything... Absolutely fab! Thanks team Three Tuns!!!!!

Lovely local pub with a great selection of G&T's and locally brewed ale.

Very cozy and super delicious food! Highly recommended :)

Good beer and enjoyable Sunday lunch

Great night, food was excellent. Dan and the team were very accommodating. Would highly recommend.

Cozy restaurant in a characteristic building from the 16th century. It's a pub, but they serve Italian food. And that was fantastic! The Pannacotta in particular gets a 10! Very friendly and helpful staff.

Loved this pub. Beautiful ancient building. Excellent Italian food. Very friendly staff.

Manages to balance being a great pub with delicious Italian restaurant. We had the vegan pasta and pasta special, both fantastic. Definitely recommend

We met up with friends from different areas for a random lunch. We hadn't booked and a table for 10 was quickly set up. They are welcoming to dogs, kids and vegans and everyone's tastes were catered to including my daughter just starting out with spicy food so the recipe was adapted for her and she was even brought a glass of milk when she found things a little hot. Everyone very friendly and welcoming and helpful and lovely from the bar to the service to the kitchen. They were clearly very busy and we had to delay ordering to wait for some of our group to arrive so the food did take a while to arrive, but I think that was because we hit the busiest time of day with a large group. Definitely recommend and would return, thank you

Great place to eat and drink, very reasonably priced. Good atmosphere always

Our first visit to the area and we were not disappointed. The food is incredible! Much higher standard than your average pub. There was live folk music playing upstairs and the ambience was very cottage-esque. Returned twice within the same week.

Great atmosphere and friendly staff

Arrived with 2 minutes to spare before kitchen closed to be greeted by a very friendly young lady who took our order. Excellent food, and a beautiful building also

Had an evening meal. Pretty busy and seemed under staffed, so service was slow but not awful. Food was good overall and the tiramisu was excellent.

Popped in for a pint after a walk around the town. Very friendly locals, great service and a nice beer garden at the back.

Very good meal reasonably priced and good service

Phenomenal Roast dinner , we are plant based and the Nut roast is out of this world , so much food and extremely tasty , my favourite pub for dinner and the Three Tuns Beer is a beautiful ale, the staff are very friendly and alway happy to help,10/10

Had an amazing meal today. Dan was polite and attentive enough his leg was in a brace he still had a smile on his face Will definitely be going back

I never leave reviews but My partner and I are staying in hay for a couple of days, I tell you what we have found the pub that is good priced, great food, amazing service. We will be going back tonight for sure, I hope the gentleman behind the bar with the leg brace is on he was bloody brilliant.

This place is amazing! The food is so good and the staff are so welcoming, especially the friendly barman! Would highly recommend.

Great Staff - all very engaging and welcoming, the Guy with behind the bar in a leg brace is an absolute star - made us laugh so much - Incredibly tasty food - great selection of beers, wines and gins - some good vegan food options - even a nut roast option for Sunday lunch which was delicious- very affordable- our favourite place in Hay 💯💯💯💯💯

Lovely pizza, gas wasn't working which is a shame didn't effect out dining experience

Overall very average. They had lost our reservation so we felt like an inconvenience to the staff. They were very unwelcoming and raced us through dinner as they obviously had another booking for the table. The food was alright, we had crab linguine which was fine but it lacked taste. I wouldn’t recommend it to a friend. Not a friendly atmosphere and not a great dining experience. Might be alright if you just want a quick bite to eat.

Good beers and friendly crowd. Bit of a Tardis pub, bigger on the inside. On our 2 visits, staff were very friendly. Didn't have any food here.

Nice beer garden, friendly, well keep beers

Great menu and staff helpful and food good .

Average. Pint in greasy glass so head was full of air bubble on surface, platter needed to be fresher with proper hummus, however the staff were great, some lovey live music upstairs and it’s a great old pub.

Outstanding Sunday Lunch - my wife had the beef, me the pork. Both of us thought all elements on the plate were so tasty and well seasoned. Followed by Panna Cotta and Semi Freddo that were similarly excellent, not to forget a fine Primitivo and warm, attentive service.

A lovely little place with nice Italian food.

This place is amazing, we asked our hosts for a good place to eat and they said to come here. Delicious Italian food, pasta and pizza and a great atmosphere. Staff were really great and the Boss was a star landlord, we enjoyed the place so much we went back for burger and chips the next day and that was superb. Very busy pub with lots of people eating and you can see why with food this good. We don't live that far away and pop to Hay every now and then for a day out and now we've found our fav pub in Hay. Thanks and see you next time. Nathan and Lynne P.S Went back again for a pizza as we were peckish and shared one and had a couple of pints. The barman with the shaved head who had looked after us all weekend was amazing once again. However when I came to pay for my food there was another couple with a baby that wanted to pay and the other barman with black hair asked who was next. I said let them go first and he served them, then ignored me and served five other people before coming back to me, leaving me standing. The other nice barman with shaved head picked up on it and said I'll be with you as soon as I can. We had eaten there three times this weekend and felt really looked after by the first barman, I cannot thank him enough. However I felt the arrogance of the second barman really blew it for us and now I think let's not go back. Shame it tinged the service there, because if I don't say anything you won't know.

It may be a few meters from the centre of Hay but worth the trip. Excellent staff and great food. Lots of gins available also good beers and ciders.

What a superb find this was! A perfect combination of pub fare and Italian flavours on the menu - as well as an extensive range of gins, which was a bonus. My husband and I both ordered pasta dishes; one prawn linguine and one brisket ragu, both of which were fantastic and arrived promptly. We also ordered a cheeky cheesy garlic bread, and that was suprisingly lovely! Someone had really taken great care in preparing our meals and the staff couldn't be more helpful. We even got a recommendation for where to go for some good local produce when we mentioned we were camping and wanted to stock up on cheese and meats. Brilliant experience - well done team Tuns.

The food is top notch with an Italian theme. We had pizzas and crab tagliatelle with a panacota dessert. Vegetarian options available. Totally the best food in the area.

Beautiful house, nice staff, food and drinks. 10 out of 10!

Friendly staff helpful food lovely good menu selection clean tidy really nice staff book for dinner next day if in the area must vist

We were booked in for Sunday roast. On booking we told the restaurant about the foods I am allergic to (one of which is egg). Upon arrival we confirmed with the bar staff the allergies I suffer with. On ordering the roast beef I was asked what my allergies were again and then I was asked by the staff again a few minutes later. At this point I have spoke to 3 different members of staff about my allergies. For dessert, I asked for ice cream and asked the staff at the time I ordered if it had egg in, I was told “I will check”. The ice cream arrives and just as I was enjoying my second spoonful of ice cream a member of staff ran up the stairs to tell to stop eating as the ice cream may have egg in. As anyone who has had an allergic reaction can tell you, this can be a very stressful experience. A nervous 5 minutes later a 4th member of staff (who I assume was the manager) ran up to tell me that it didn’t have egg in. He was very apologetic. To further apologies our deserts and drinks were refunded. This experience spoilt what was intended to be a relaxing Sunday roast. The overbearing experience from being asked so many times about my allergies made me nervous that the front of house and kitchen had no confidence, experience or training with dealing with what in reality are quite simple allergies. The incident with the ice cream summed it all up. I think the staff would have been more relaxed and capable if I had walked in and announced I had a bomb instead! For the sake of balance, the roast beef was really good, as was the gravy, I would recommend going if visiting and you don’t have any allergies

Had a fab Sunday lunch with fantastic service and excellent beers. Best cauliflower cheese I've ever had.

we were servered by a lovely barmaid called emma who was so nice and kind and really took an interest in us. would come again 💯

We dropped in here for something to eat on a Monday evening. It was very busy- I think that a lot of other places in Hay are closed on Mondays. We had some nice pizza and excellent cider. Staff were a little hassled. Decor uninspiring. Maybe a tad expensive for what it was.

Brandon and Ewan, your Sunday roast was fantastic. We had the beef and the nut roast. Everything was freshly cooked, good quality and very tasty. We would definitely return when we're down your way.

I came here nightly during my stay in Hay. Friendly staff, great food, and a super comfortable place to settle down with drinks and a book.

We had two veggies roast dinners one vegan and one pork all delicious would definitely go again and would recommend

Nice building friendly staff, shame about the smoking corner outside as it does let smoke into the building.

Excellent food, great service and a lovely atmosphere

What a great pub! My cycling club and I turned up without prior warning, looking for some food and the staff could not have been more welcoming to all 12 of us! Friendly and accommodating, up for a laugh and excellent food at good prices. We will be sure to stop here again if we are ever passing.

Enjoyed a lovely pasta/pizza meal with family

We went for dinner as we were passing through on a road trip. Food was amazing and very reasonably priced. Staff wete friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend.

Excellent service, food and atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Tasty food, but I don't think I can say it was amazing. The menu was limited and I felt had too large a range of burgers with chips, although there were other dishes, pasta and curries. The food was served with a smile and the place was busy. I also thought the eating area where we were had harsh lighting and so, if you going for a quiet, romanic meal, I would not select this place. Popular with families. It was busy when we were eating and you can get a decent meal, but again the cost of food these days makes even a burger quite pricey!

Good food, great service. We will be back the next time we are in HoW

Built around 1600, this is a really charming old pub. And the food and beer is top-notch too. Really friendly to-boot. Recommended

The pub looks a little run down from the outside but the food was sublime. No gastro stuff, just a simple pub meal with an Italian flavor, but the food that arrived was absolutely brilliant. The chef really understands what should be put with what to optimise the experience. Interestingly the oldest house in Hay on Wye too. I loved the place

Cosy atmosphere in a historic house. The service is not always very speedy, but the food (we had burgers) tasted good. Also a good selection of different types of beer and cider. A nice place for people who like to take their time.

Great oldie worldy pub. Super atmosphere, good beer friendly staff, great food. Would recommend forcanyoune visiting Hay on Wye

A tremendous old worldly pub, very well renovated, serves lovely food and drink

I’d like to start by saying we were lucky enough to be fitted in last minute and were wonderfully surprised with their amazing hospitality especially as a last minute Mother’s Day treat! They had a choice of roast Welsh local lamb, or local on the border beef served best rare (as they rightfully serve). Mother in law had the roast pork meal and even admitted that was up there with best and even said that the stuffing was exceptional and complemented the whole meal perfectly. Can’t wait to come back

This is a little gem. We came here for a romantic meal while staying in Hay on Wye for 2 nights. This pub had an Italian inspired menu. The food was amazing and fresh. The service was great. Great customer service. The atmosphere was great, with lovely music, and also got hear a band rehearsed. The wooden beams and open fire were amazing, with board games. Dog friendly, too. I would definitely recommend coming here. Only one issue was the ladies' toilet doors were very tight to get in and out, but overall lovely little gem.

Great food - we had the in-house burger and Brisket Tagliatelli. The service was excellent, efficient and friendly. There was an impressive range of gins on offer!

Ordered pork and given spam! I do not expect a lot from pub food but did not think this low. First of all, when we glanced at the menu the starters were printed double sided, when asked for a new menu took about 15 minutes to get us a new one. After that we had our italian main, nothing about it was italian apart from the undercooked pasta. For our dessert we ordered tiramisu, if you don’t like amoretto then don’t get it as that’s all you can taste! The next day we came for a Sunday lunch after a hike and the atmosphere was very negative. We ordered and when the food arrived there was no crackling even though it is listed on the menu, when we asked they persisted there was some on the plate, there wasn’t! After i had finished my pork, there was a last piece of “pork”. I showed the waitress it and she looked very disgusted by what was on my plate, she went and asked the chef. She came back very argumentative and rude calling it stuffing, let me make clear that my friend ordered the same thing as me and did not have this so called stuffing and neither did the couple sat near us. Avoid this place if you want a nice meal!

Really great food with plenty of choice. The vegetarian and pescatarian dishes were particularly good.

Lovely place, only marked down slightly as service was slow. Please don't let that take you from visiting the Three Tuns on that note

Dog friendly, lovely, genuine and welcoming staff. Good beer, good vibes and delicious food. Recommend the brownies! :)

Absolutely lovely Sunday lunch a few weeks back, at a very reasonable price. Will be back the next time I travel through Hay

Popped in here on a soggy night in February. What a lovely pub this is! Three draught ales, Butty Bach, HPA and Three Tuns Best, all served beautifully! Probably the best looking pint of HPA I've ever seen, diamond clear, never mind crystal, and holding the glass beautifully as it goes down. I'm so impressed I'm literally writing this review as I'm sitting in the pub! The menu looks very Italian themed which is no bad thing for me, but this evening, we're in town to try the Indian, so we won't be eating. But I would definitely come back to try the food here. Just look at the beer in the photo! Enough said!

We had dinner or Friday night - service was great and overall experience very good. We had linguini and pizza, a bottle of red and mixed olives to start. Interesting local produce/ingredients on the menu. Everything tasty (although missing something - couldn’t quite put our finger on what exactly), and the service was prompt and hospitable. The space has some lovely nooks and crannies, and a jolly fire on the pub side. Will be glad to go back.

6 of us had Sunday dinner here January 2024 Great quality food Meat was deliciously tender and gravy was spot on Would definitely eat here again

A brilliant vegetarian menu, fantastic old architecture and atmosphere, with an amazing crowd

Ordered chicken burger and cheeseburger but bit off more than we could chew by ordering the charcuterie sharing starter platter. Superb pub food, dog friendly with great staff who take orders at your table. Would definitely go again with good knowledge of Italian cuisine

A delicious pizza and a pint in this cosy pub, a great start to our visit to the area.

Popped in for a Sunday roast. Some nice ales on tap and a good selection of drinks overall, food was tasty and reasonably priced. Knocked a star off as saw on the way out the hygiene rating is only a one star.

Didn't have any food as arrived just before 12pm to celebrate New Year! Was busy, full of excited students, music and fun! Lovely cider drank then hello New Year! Then rushed back to Winforton through the flooded roads! :) As obviously we couldn't stay any longer due to the river flowing over its banks! :)

Lovely veggie burger. Staff pleasant and helpful.

A chaotic lunchtime experience. We were pointed to a table after standing around for a few minutes, but that’s where the service ended. Cleaning products and empty bottles were left standing on the sticky table, and we never got to see a menu. The only interaction we got in 30 minutes was a server walking by and tossing a couple of packets of vinegar on top of a cleaning rag in front of us. We got up and went somewhere else.

Very nice food (fresh pizza) and good service. This is a lovely old pub in a beautiful setting, a minute or so by foot from the main streets of the town. We were glad we booked as it was popular.

Hadn't expected much as it was off season and quiet, however the service was efficient and good and the food was very tasty! A lovely variety of seating arrangements too for all occasions. Pizza was perfectly topped!

Not a great meal. I had beetroot linguini - so much more could have been made of the beetroot sauce - it was just bland. Husband's pizza was OK. Service was good. Not impressed enough to go back - sorry

Friendly staff, lovely atmosphere and good food 👍🏻

I genuinely old pub in the centre of Hay on Wye.
