The best restaurants in Crickhowell, Llangattock Powys Mid Wales

Excellent lunch and service in a lovely location in a pleasant courtyard above Crickhowell. Interesting and imaginative food.

Great for gluten free. Fab breakfast. Friendly staff, reasonably priced and nice down to earth staff (do you know how hard you have to look to get ALL these aspects to align?!!!) I’m here every week now and I’ve tried them all in this town! Another cafe in Crickhowell she turned white when I asked about gf toast and wasn’t even interested when I said I’d bring in my own bread! It’s not difficult people (and here is the proof!). AND they put their baked beans in a ramekin!! lol

Great place to eat great ambience

Excellent meal all around. Different. I had mussels as a starter which were very tasty and bavette for main. My husband had fish pie which should have been accompanied by veg. He asked for them and the waiter stated there were not an accompaniment. He had almost finished his meal and the waiter arrived with his veg! Apart from this a good meal. Bit pricey but a class above!

My wife and I called into this lovely cafe this morning. We were passing through and happened to spot it. The staff were welcoming and friendly. I had a Latte, and Caramel/Chocolate Shortbread which was very good. The seating area and bathroom facilities were spotlessly clean. Will definitely call in again soon for a bite to eat!

Food was sublime. Had probably the best lamb tikka masala I've ever had and peshwari naan was great too. Atmosphere good and sat upstairs is nice a quiet - if a bit far from the service! Regardless love it and want to come back.

The best breakfast for a Good 15 miles,honestly cannot fault it. Cooked to order every time and super tasty. No dried up bacon or tinned mushrooms here thanks!

This old school pub is just superb. Lovely traditional pub atmosphere with a great selection of real ale. Even better, Wednesday through to Sunday they do food. Not ordinary pub food but a Jamaican/Welsh fusion. Everything that I have eaten here has been fantastic. Hard to name a favourite but do try the goat curry, oxtail and beef rib accompanied by Jamaican rice and peas, (black eyed peas more like beans). You will not be disappointed!

Definitely go here if you can! The atmosphere was really friendly and cosy, with a roaring fire, great food, interesting books, and a delicious array of local beers. The locals were rightly proud of their local and we can't recommend it highly enough!

Found this cafe on line, glad we did, the guys were so welcoming, even the dog was welcomed in. We both had the big cooked breakfast, wow, it’s not very often I actually enjoy a cooked breakfast but this was amazing, really good quality ingredients cooked perfectly. We’d happily go back.

Absolutely delicious breakfast and came for lunch too. Beautiful building and gorgeous location. Highly recommended!

If you find yourself in Crickhowell, the café at Book-ish is a must-visit for coffee and food lovers. The staff greet you warmly, offering friendly and attentive service in an atmosphere surrounded by books, which adds a calming, nostalgic charm. The thoughtfully curated menu may be concise, but every dish shines. Even classics like avocado toast or a bacon sandwich become memorable bursts of flavor. The chef’s personal touch, checking in with diners, exemplifies the care taken here. Highly recommended—I can’t wait to return.

Surprised to read some of the reviews on here. Great little find on camper van app, we called and emailed and had positive replies. We stayed in our van on our travels in the carpark, great peaceful night with not a lot of lighting, had good Ale on tap (Doom Bar) and had a great steak and fish tea. Great service and friendly staff, it wasn’t too busy for a Saturday but in the current climate and its rural location isn’t this to be expected. We are planning another local walk in the new year and will be back

Called for a takeaway whilst holidaying in the area. There’s plenty to choose from on the menu & the food was fresh & cooked well. 100% recommended. It’s just a shame you can’t order & pay online to collect.

Fantastic views from the restaurant but from there on in a disappointing experience. My starter of pork cheek was burnt and the duck breast I chose for main was over cooked and tough to the point that my husband had to stabilise the wobbly table when I cut the meat. My husband did slightly better with a rather lackluster leak and potato soup, his main was a success, he chose the chestnut and mushroom Wellington which was good. We were the only diners in the restaurant, which added to the slightly dismal ambiance. At over £100 for 2 with therr courses and a single drink it felt over priced compared to other establishments in the area. In its favour the views were brilliant and it was very convenient for bridge 116 on the Mon and Brec canal. However the slightly longer walk to Crickhowell is rewarded with excellent food at the Bear.
