The best restaurants in Mid Wales

I walked by this lovely little place and saw the smoothie menu and had to try one. I’m very glad I did! I had the strawberry, banana, and mango smoothie made with apple juice. It was delicious. The staff were very friendly and service was quick. They also had lots of other lovely treats on the menu. Something for everyone. Quality was spot on and good price range too.

Lovely meal ar the superb Checkers - what a find in gorgeous Montgomery. Tasting menu was superb - the tasty ‘snacks’ at the outset set the standard for the rest of the meal. Stand outs were the brill and the beef courses but the carrot course was incredibly tasty too. Dessert courses also great - lemon posset with gel and strawberry with yoghurt, meringue and pistachios. Definitely worth a visit, great menu at a very good price.

What a wonderful couple who run the deli/cafe/restaurant. It is Aberystwyth's treasure. The food cooked by Mario and his wife Chiara is amazing and very reasonably priced. They are an important part of the community and they care.

Wow! It will be hard to shift this meal from my top five of all time! Excellent service, great chicken starter for me, halloumi for my partner; we both opted for the lamb, cooked beautifully, as were the vegetables. Finished off with copious amounts of cheese (partner went for chocolate pudding) and a very nice glass of port. Many thanks for a wonderful experience!

Quite frankly the best curry I have ever had. All of the food from here is cooked to perfection and the service is top notch too

Lovely local server. I had the vegetarian curry, which was (surprisingly) brilliant! Homemade, and tasted fresh and well-balanced spices- unusual for a vegetarian meal. Husband had ham, egg and chips. Chips were crispy, and ham was a generous portion, tasty and thick-cut. 😋 2 slices of ham, and 2 eggs. Great 👍

We've dined here a couple of times now when visiting Brecon and in an area with limited vegan eat out options, the Hop In is a standout. It's a quirky little bistro bar, with a good range of real and craft beers and extensive gin list. The spanish tapas menu is simple but offering a good range of tasty home made dishes. We loved the stuffed peppers, vegetable croquettes and patatas bravas. It's a popular place, so best book ahead if you are wanting to dine.

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.

Welcoming, friendly staff. Not just traditional Welsh rarebit available but other interesting and delicious varieties. Seasonal menu. Cater very well for dietary requirements. Third visit - has been perfect every time.

Had a 20oz rump steak and a pint. Food was really good, steak was tender and cooked perfectly, staff were friendly and welcoming. Very cosy and comfortable place with a stunning view. No faults

Superb food and friendly staff. Booked a table for 7 plus 2 dogs and requested breakfast, even though we were due to arrive shortly after midday. The Full Breakfast was fantastic, as well as the falafel wrap and salad. The dogs were treated to free dog treats and supplied with fresh water. This was our second visit to the cafe and certainly won't be our last.

Visited for my granddaughters birthday meal, had the steak pie and mash and was probably one of the best meals I have ever had!! Stunning!! Thank you Neil, Sarah & Fleur!!

Travelling today from North Wales to Cardiff to visit our son - we decided to stop somewhere different for something to eat. Found this hidden gem. Lovely atmosphere, welcoming staff and a really tasty breakfast!! We will definately be stopping here again!

The most relaxing dining in the wonderful eclectic home of chef Kerry and front of house Paul. The food is outstanding, beautifully presented with delightful flavours. There is true passion in every dish with the added bonus of fresh grown produce from their garden. A must visit whenever in the area

Highly recommended. Found them online as staying on holiday near by. We walked from supermarket carpark 2mins away, ordered & within 15 mins had 2 pizzas. Great quality & service & reasonably priced, would absolutely go back!
