The best restaurants serving British food in Crickhowell, Llangattock Powys Mid Wales

I recently had the pleasure of dining with friends at The Vine Tree in Llangattock, and from the moment we stepped inside, we were struck by the beautiful decor and warm, inviting atmosphere. The service was exceptional, with the waitstaff promptly seating us and taking the time to explain the menu in detail. For starters, we enjoyed two duck parfaits, fried chicken in XO sauce and miso, and Tom Yum mussels—each dish bursting with flavor. For the mains, we had a perfectly cooked dry-aged sirloin with oxtail, braised Roscoff, parsley, and bone marrow sauce, two chicken, wild mushroom, and tarragon “pies” with baby onions, bacon, and liquor sauce, and a pork dish that I can’t recall exactly but believe it was served with baked apple and crackling mash—the recipient couldn’t stop raving about it. We finished the meal with a couple of desserts that were just as outstanding as the rest of the courses. The entire evening felt like a true fine dining experience, and I’d highly recommend The Vine Tree to anyone looking for exceptional food and service.

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!

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

Oh dear, what has happened to the menu! We have eaten many times here and the food has generally been consistent and the menu sensibly priced and with a good variety of dishes. Our previous visit was about 3 or 4 months ago so I assumed we would get the same or similar menu. My bad for not checking; the old menu has been replaced by pretentious French described dishes (why?!) and a huge price hike across the board. We chose the King Prawns Risotto, overpriced at £18.50. The dish was garnished with one king prawn, no more: the rice was tasty enough but the dish very poor value for money. Regrettably, we won't be returning, such a shame after an association with the hotel restaurant over many years. I suspect many people, like us, will vote with their feet. Nearby Crickhowell has much to offer on the dining front.

We stayed here a few months back and found the place to be excellent again! Last time the breakfast service was poor due to a member of staff, this time the complete opposite ! The pub is amazing and has a nice atmosphere, the restaurant is lovely and the food excellent ! The staff are all really eager to please, the breakfast as I mentioned was excellent with great service ! Room 12 is a challenge for a 6’2 person but comfortable ! The bath should be replaced with a shower cubicle really but can’t fault the place overall and will always come back even if in room 12 :-)
