The best restaurants in Aberaeron Ceredigion Mid Wales

We called into the Black Lion in Aberaeron about 2:30 for some lunch. The two of us, plus our granddaughter and the dog. I asked if we were ok to bring the dog in and was told he was more that welcome. He got served before us as once we were seated they brought him a bowl of water! We ordered drinks and food. The food was exceptional. (We asked for and was given a takeaway container to take what we didn't eat home, it was that nice. We would 100% recommend going there, and will be visiting again ourselves. Very friendly and helpful staff (all three of the ones who we spoke to) 6 stars all the way as I can't give a 5 plus.

Perfection It has been a long time since we had a meal as excellent as this . We visited on a Saturday evening and it was busy but you would have thought you were having a private dining experience . The whole thing runs like a Swiss timepiece. Oh and then ther is the food. A seasonal menu of locally sourced food with the talent of a chef who really knows what they are doing. A generous portion of superlative focaccia set us off and we chose a bottle of Appasimento for £30 I had a starter of crispy pork cheek with hoisin and cucumber on a butter milk waffle . My husband had a pork liver parfait with chutney and treacle bread . I had a rare fillet of beef with spiced butter, bordelaise and triple cooked chips. My husband had roast cod with leeks, cheddar mash and a warm sauce tartare. Desserts -a crème brûlée with a raspberry Madelaine and a white chocolate cheesecake with a blackberry sorbet . We finished with their home made caramel fudge . I cannot single out a thing as ‘the best’ , it was all so very delicious and such superb quality . Treat yourself!

Very nice food and as it was raining and I was on my mobility scooter they put a ramp down over the steps to get in and out .would differently go again even if sitting outside in the sun .owner very nice well done .

We saw them in Aberystwyth, and were very glad we stopped by. The food was really tasty and generous portions. We had lunch and then barely ate until bedtime! Very happy, will return.

I didn't stay there but had a Sunday lunch and it was amazing. Perfect in every way. Amazing pannacotta to finish it all off. Lovely staff, it was a good laugh forgetting the word shandy and having to explain what it was to the waitress 😂 lovely place, will defo come back!

Great breakfast. Lovely friendly staff. Comfortable upgraded rooms with ultra clean and comfortable bedding, towels etc. Well worth a visit. Based at Arosfa is Manuka a pop up Asian themed street food kitchen. The food is excellent with a variety of dishes using local produce, but with a difference. Adjoining photographs show loaded triple cooked fries, belly pork and chicken Korean and Malayan style dishes.

Quiet in a wet Sunday. Perfect for us for lunch. The burger was excellent. Full of flavour and cooked nicely. Chips could have been a bigger portion but good. Wife loved her veggie lasagne. Son had a good ham egg & chips. Great pint of Largo as well (sunk a couple of those the weekend before with uni friends). Great food. And some cheeky games of pool after.

Chanced across this lovely cafe/tea room. Staff were really friendly. Food fantastic. Very good value. Also took some goodies home which were delicious. Lovely vintage decor - I really wanted to take the Singer table home to keep my sewing machine on!

Had Steak and ale pie with chips and peas, well it was more like steak and ale pudding really soggy pastry. A pie has to be done in the oven not the microwave...really disappointed especially as everyone else's meals looked really good..

We had lunch. It was nice but the staff were terribly badly dressed. Man at bar was in loudly coloured rugby shirt and person who brought the food was in too short shorts, thick, hairy legs and trainers. Please smarten yourselves up. It looked very unprofessional. Long trousers and a proper, smarter shirt or polo shirt, please. I noticed this is supposed to be 5 star. You need to maintain certain standards in all aspects.

Ate in this restaurant every evening - friendly staff and superb views over the bay added to the atmosphere. The food was good, plenty of choice from a varied menu. Excellent wine list obviously compiled by an oenophile.

Great singer on when I was there however there was a strange man dancing with a pool cue which made me feel slight uncomfortable, apart from this what a great pub 🤩

Excellent place, room was clean staff were very helpful, will definitely be going back.
