The best restaurants in Mid Wales

We've bought ice cream from here many, many times over the years. There are lots of places selling great ice cream in West wales, but this one is the best I've found.

An unexpected find. We were looking for something to eat on the eve of New year's eve. As we walked by we saw that Fabian s was open and looked lovely inside. The owners greeted us and made us feel very welcome. As it was cold they put a portable heater by the table. We loved the menu, a choice of Indian food, pizza or burgers. Something for everyone. The food was excellent. The curry was amazing, my husband ate the chickpea and spinach curry which he said was the best he'd had. So glad we found this place. So welcoming and fabulous food.

Such a lovely cafe with excellent staff and food. Very gluten free friendly. We’ve discovered they do amazing gluten free flapjacks and took a few away with us too!

Another delicious lunch at this gem of a restaurant situated in the stunning Brecon Beacons. A lovely warm welcome as usual from Katie & the girls . The Marry me chicken cooked in a sun dried tomato , paprika & oregano sauce was exquiste & the Scampi was cooked to perfection. Compliments to the talented Chef Wilden. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

Stayed with my daughter for a couple of nights before the school term restarts. Room was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Very quiet with a gorgeous view of the Welsh countryside. Breakfast was lovely and filling. A real shame they don't do evening meals as it meant we ended up with takeaways in the car as I wasn't sure if we'd be allowed to bring in hot food. That aside, we enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to book again.

Popped in for a quick lunch as I have been meaning to visit for ages. I was not disappointed. The warmth of the lovely welcome was matched by the glowing woodburner. The menu and specials covered everything from traditional Welsh Rarebit to Patagonian and Korean! As it was my first visit I plumped for the traditional with a lovely flat white. The star of the show came with an excellent side salad and some amazing cranberry chutney. Will I be back? Definitely, the Fiery Patagonian is calling my name. In summary a fantastic place with lovely welcoming staff and amazing food. My advice is don’t miss it.

Wow!!!! A diamond in the Beacons! Booked for a Sunday lunch here for my mother’s birthday. The host was warm and welcoming, the atmosphere lively and friendly……. The food!!!!! Amazing!!!!! A proper Sunday lunch, the leg of Welsh lamb cooked to perfection with the added bonus of the best cauliflower cheese ever, golden and delicious! You will need to book…. As it was very busy, however the service was never compromised for a second, swift, polite and piping hot 👌🏻

What a find! A fantastic meal and such good value for money. This place is amazing and we will be coming back! The nibbles were to die for and the service was amazing. Really intimate venue with only a few tables so you really get top quality service and they are so personable! The portions were so generous and the food was absolutely delicious. Left absolutely STUFFED! Can’t recommend enough.

A great pizza takeaway that does delicious gluten free (and normal) pizzas. The staff are friendly and answered all my questions. They have a separate area to prepare gluten free pizzas, to avoid cross contamination. The pizzas are thin, crispy and really delicious. There are lots of toppings to choose from and they also cater for vegans with vegan cheese and toppings. We usually pre-order our pizzas, as they can get really busy, and we get given a time to pick up our pizzas. Whenever we have been to collect them, they have been ready bang on time.

Another great dinner at Crocketts. Our go to when visiting friends in this area. Ross is a most talented chef offering a carefully curated menu which has something for everyone. Delicious food at very reasonable prices. You will not be disappointed.

Turned un booked on a Friday night, staff are amazing so welcoming and friendly. Had a lovely pint and food is amazing in particular the burgers which went down a treat. Dog friendly through out with amazing service. Plenty of parking as well.

Superb quality breakfast in immaculate surroundings.Highly recommended .I notive afternoon tea and.lunches are also available.We will return very soon

What a find! Not familiar with the area we found this on TripAdvisor. A small traditional pub, with small local bar and restaurant and a welcoming landlord. The menu is small but that didn't put us off, having a good choice of traditional meals such as lasagne, fish, and burgers, and we all found something we liked. All the meals are cooked fresh and they were happy to alter the pizza toppings for my son. The chicken in BBQ sauce was delicious and came with home cooked chips and onion rings. Service was excellent, and the landlord and waiting staff very friendly and quick serving. Will definitely visit again if in the area

Shirley's food is a Machynlleth institution and not to be missed. Make sure you check the ordering details on the website in plenty of time though!

We booked afternoon tea for last Saturday, and it did not disappoint. The food was delightful, the hosts most welcoming, and the view stunning (even though it was raining.) We had such a positive experience, that we've booked to go back for the Grill Night next month. Well done Paul and Vanessa, you've breathed new life into the place!
