The best restaurants in Welshpool Castle Powys Mid Wales

Simply the best restaurant we know A unique old rectory with original features. Serving a taster menu full of eclectic goodies many of which are home produced or locally sourced. A fixed menu that changes monthly, but always features a heaven sent Cheese soufflés. Couple this with a friendly atmosphere…….it’s simply the best!!!

Excellent cafe. I have been here a number of times and have never been disappointed. The food is excellent with a nice variety for lunch, a good selection of cakes (including gluten free) and staff are very friendly and helpful. I look forward to returning.

Really good steak pie and chips beers good too, highly recommend!!! Back of the Angel has many tvs great for people into sports!

Great atmosphere and brilliant for live sports. Keep up the amazing work.

Welcoming but in not your face. Just right. Food - welsh lamb curry. Very good. After a long walk this is your rest. They took out half for my breakfast with a tia miria.

Wouldn’t even say it was worthy of a 1 star rating.. Chicken half cooked and cold. Kebab meat cold. Pizza was terrible, and Garlic bread was too horrendous to even explain. Waste of money.

Passing visit (and we're glad we chose Silverfish 👍) Cracking chippy Food was lovely, piping hot and plenty of it. (largest jumbo sausage I've ever had from a chippy! 😂) Staff were great and the service was prompt. Highly recommended!

We were greeted warmly at the door by some friendly looking staff. Sadly, that was as good as it got. We were there for Christmas lunch, and at £83.50 each we were expecting something nice. However, the food was vary basic and not of good quality. It was vary similar to a normal Sunday carvery which you might pay £10 - £15 for. It was not worth the money at all. The service was terrible. They forgot to bring us 2 of the starters which we had to ask for. They also forgot to bring 2 of the main courses which we again had to ask for. They got the drinks order wrong several times and had no idea how to tend the bar. The bar staff asked us if we wanted our whiskey neat or on the rocks????? We asked for a high chair for a child, which they arranged ok. However, there was no tray on the high chair to put a plate and no setting at the table to seat him at. Where was he supposed to put his plate?? They charged us £10 for the child's EMPTY plate (we were going to give him food from our plates, because he's only 2 years old and eats almost nothing). The whole experience ruined our Christmas day and we would not recommend the place to anyone.

Overall very disappointing, starter was ok, main meal was overcooked and cold, dessert was ok. Will not rush back to try again !

Don't bother at the weekend. Waited an hour for a very average sandwich.

We visited whilst on our way down to Builth Wells. A family of 8. Food was fabulous very tasty. Staff extremely friendly and worked very fast to serve our Sunday lunch. Very large portions and a huge bowl of cauliflower cheese unfortunately only one of our party liked that so a lot went to waste. We would definitely recommend! Diolch yn fawr/thank you very much

They treat their staff pretty badly, as well as insane prices for pretty mediocre food.

Called in for lunch and were greeted by friendly staff. We had roast beef dinner and it was nicely presented and flavoursome with a very good portion of beef. Only one small criticism, it would have been good to have a steak knife to cut the thick beef slices. Very reasonably priced.

Called in for Sunday lunch whilst we were in the area and were not disappointed. The staff were very friendly, the place was clean but we had to wait a little while for our food to come to the table. I had the Sunday lunch, and what a plateful it was. They no longer have half a chicken but two chicken breast fillets instead which is much better than all the bones in half a chicken. We had refills of our tea and coffee cups and a free donut with our hot drinks too. Great value for money and will be calling in again.

Great bargain. Got my breakfast, a kids breakfast, unlimited tea and a fruit shoot for just over £8. Decent breakfast. Autism friendly as it had all the runny foods ( beans, chopped tomatoes and guacamole) in separate pots so that they don’t touch the other food. As we as the runny foods I got a veggie sausage, 2 hash browns, a fried egg and 2 toast. Kids breakfast is 3 items.
