Ty Morgans in Powys

A one star review may seem somewhat mean, but in this case it is not. We travelled for nearly three hours to get to Rhayadar for a few days away. We love Wales and my wife's brother lives in the town. We arrived on Monday early afternoon and as we entered the town saw a car parking space outside Ty Morgans so stopped for a cup of coffee and something to eat. I opened the door and approached the counter. I was 'greeted' with a silent stare by one of the bar staff who was cleaning a glass. It was a bit like a western movie when the piano stops playing as the bad guy enters the bar... I politely asked 'are you open?'- which was a silly question as quite clearly it was open- the door was not locked, the lights were on, and their was no sign saying closed. The lady simply starred back at me unsmiling and said, 'YES'. Welcome to Rhayadar. I'm not easily offended but I wouldn't have spoken to a dog that way. As we left three young guys also entered and were told the same. They left and looked equally unimpressed. The owners of Ty Morgans need to train their staff on a few matters. 1) When you are closed, turn off most of the lights and lock the door. 2) Display a sign saying 'Closed' 3) In you event of forgetting to do 1) or 2) and someone enters the establishment wanted to spend money then train your staff to at least treat the potential customer with respect and not like something they've trod on the sole of their shoe. Thankfully there was a lovely cafe opposite with polite, helpful staff who served us coffee and lovely food. They will be getting a 5 star review from us 👍

We just happened on this place passing through. Food is excellent and really good value. Cakes are too die for, service is friendly and efficient. We will be making this a regular stop.

A nice tea room with nice food and lovely staff

My partner and I came to stay in Rhayader for a small break and visited here when we first arrived. We are from North Yorkshire and everything about this place was perfect! Friendly staff, fast food and the atmosphere is Beautiful. 100% recommend coming here!!!!

Best Full English breakfast I’ve had in long time. Superb

Food was fantastic. Staff very friendly

Really good food and drink. Nice and relaxed atmosphere too

The breakfast is lovely and the fresh juices are stunning.

Excellent range on the menu, good value, quick service. Plenty of tables and a small outside area.

Very nice clean and welcoming vibes place tasty food and friendly staff

Rooms are quite ok for the price. a clean ladie from the pub who done our check-in was super friendly. The only issue with the room was that we could hear everything from the pub. Thank God they close quite early , unfortunately, we stayed over the weekend and was a bit noisy on the streets because the hotel is quite old building we been wake uk several times during the night. Same in the very early morning with the delivery van. Restaurant is a great, beautiful interior , and there are great options for breakfast . Most of the stuff was super friendly. Breakfast delicious.

The restaurant/cafe is really good! We came here for breakfast 2 days in a row. Coffee is great, fried breakfast is fresh and tasty and the cinnamon waffles are great too! Lovely selection of cakes and sandwiches. Friendly, efficient service. Would recommend!

Lovely little cafe in the centre of town. Has an amazing range on the menu of food and drink, breakfast was amazing having the avocado and poached eggs cooked perfectly and you could tell it was fresh produce, was so excited to tuck in i didn't get a picture but I did get one of the coffee.

Lovely place, very friendly staff and gokd food

Stopped for brunch twice. Excellent value and very good service. They allow dogs which is good for us too

Room great for the price. Best place I've stayed in for years.

Hi everyone would like to share experience of staying in this hotel. First , arrive here noone here and this was 7pm, have to go to another hotel to take this keys, then need to go find where to eat, second: I go take a shower, lowest pressure ever seen in the shower and finally went to the bed and the mattress is like you sleeping without, like you sleeping on top of timber. My opinion need avoid this one and book next to the road with same price. (Maybe is just this room, but never again) thanks for reading

Had a lovely lunch with hubby. I had the steak baguette & he had the burger. Lovely food plenty of chips & a cheeky extra sausage for our dog.

Stopped off for lunch at the cafe whilst travelling through the area. Very friendly staff and decent, reasonably priced food. Happily recommend.

Asked if it's possible to have the breakfast served vegan. “Vegan???” the woman behind the till exclaims as if I’d just sworn at her. As the breakfast can be chosen with different options I was hoping to get hash browns, beans, toast, tomatoes and mushrooms so asked if it’s possible to have them vegan i.e. not cooked in butter or served with butter. She said well the hash browns are cooked in fryers with meat, I said that's fine, she said the mushrooms are cooked in butter I asked would it be ok to cook the mushrooms in oil she complained the chef would have to empty the pans, she then said it would be an hour and a half wait - with no other option as the lost arc was shut and we were with 4 people we had to just put the order through. It was all quite rude and patronising - I’ve never been spoken to like that ever in a restaurant before. The other non vegan members of our table said they were told it’s only a 30 minute wait not over an hour like they told us. In the end the food arrived at the same time but was all a bit rude and unnecessary - probably just trying to make us turn around and leave. In hindsight I wouldn’t go here again as a vegan - whatever you think of my dietary choice there’s no need for rudeness and it's standard in restaurants to accommodate different diets today - don't know why it was so difficult for you. The Lost Arc and other places nearby are much more friendly, accommodating and better vegan options. Would recommend going there instead.

Fantastic staff, received a warm welcome. Food was exceptional and I wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend.

Friendly and helpful staff. The food in the restaurant is tasty Good price - Room clean and a lot space. For longer stays, this is a big advantage. The area is very nice

Most times when I visit Rhayader I call in Ty's for breakfast of coffee and cake. I have also stayed in the past. Always good service and amazing cake selection. Some constructive criticism coming now. Crushed avocado with poached eggs... wonderfully poached eggs, perfection, but avocado just chopped up (including some dark bits that personally I would remove) not crushed and all, placed on top of one piece of toast with the other toast underneath.. that seems a bit odd. Divided between the toasts I feel would be better. Did not complain as it detracts from my breakfast experience and the meal was essentially good.
