The best restaurants serving British food in Welshpool Castle Powys Mid Wales

What a super find! We were on holiday in the area, and wandering around the town of Welshpool, came across Coco. The welcome given to the four of us was really warm, and the owner coudn't have been more happy to help us make our drink and meal choices, and also recommend places to visit on our holiday. Whilst we enjoyed our meal it was so good to hear her engaging with regular customers and visitors alike, ensuring everyone's visit was a great experience. Such a happy and friendly cafe and a million miles away from the experience in a 'big chain' coffee shop.

We stopped here to break up a long journey. Straight away it seemed very unwelcoming. My son is autistic, and because he seemed more comfortable in the corner section we asked to move tables. We were advised that was the dog friendly section, and obviously we would move if needed, it was quiet at the time, but this seem like an inconvenience to move tables. Then when my son was wandering in the pub, this seemed to annoy a couple of guests, and I know he seemed hyperactive but these are some of his autistic traits, this seemed to annoy one couple in particular, where the man was making very rude comments ( I know you have no control over who comes into your pub) but overall it just felt very unwelcoming in there. Are kids not allowed in here? It didn't seem like it. We come past this pub often, so we will not be stopping here again.

We dropped in without booking hoping to get lunch. I was with my friend and her disabled dad. They were able to offer us a table and from the start the experience was excellent. The staff member ( I think it was the Manager) came out to the car park to see if we needed any help with the wheelchair. We were promptly seated and drinks and food order taken quickly. All members of staff were polite and friendly. The food came in a good waiting time and we were all really pleased with the food. I had an ultimate burger, my friend a Thai beef dish and her dad an all day breakfast. Great portion sizes, hot and all tasty. Really reasonably priced as well ! Thankyou for such a great experience

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

Staff very pleasant : good pretty bad . Vegetable soup tasted like nothing at all , it was so bland , like baby food . My dad’s BLT sandwich was sadly inedible . Chips stone cold . Won’t bother again .
