The Ranting Robot in Llanddewi is a brilliant place for a bite to eat. I recommend the famous " Sweet Pea Soup "

I'd have to disagree with Mark about everything...and the Waffles are ok but not a patch on the genuine, humble Welsh people.

Llandysul has a buzzing community with bakers and butchers and cafe's but you can't beat Llandysul's Fish and Chips, best chippie in wales !

If you like a good meal then the St Govans Inn south of Pembroke is fantastic. Big meals for a very reasonable price and it's a proper old local. If you have a sweet toothe then the Honey shop in Tywyn does the Greatest Honey Ice-cream!

I can strongly reccomend the Talbot in Tregaron, I eat there when ever I visit the area and always enjoy a good meal and friendly company, try the steak or the Gammon they are both very good.

Llanfaes dairy has great Ice cream and I have always been a fan. I took 7 friends to the parlour recently and we ordered our sundaes and coffees in total we spent £35. My brother in law purchased a cone at the take out bar and came and sat down at our table and was asked to leave because that it was against they're policy. A lesson in tact is required

Poached leaks: Fantastic tasting dish from the Feathers Royal Hotel in Aberaeron. Very original concept. I will asking my local bistro if they will introduce it on their menu. Excellent menu.

For cleanliness and a friendly welcome you cannot do better than Tafarn Gors,New Crossnear Aberystwyth. We had a splendid meal there.

I strongly recommend eating at Ty Thai at New Quay (above Box of Delights) The best Thai food in West Wales in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. All authentic dishes cooked to order. Never miss the chance to eat here.

The very best veggie soups, especially the broccoli (rocket fuel), from the Knobbly Carrot in Lampeter.

Try Blaencamel Farm for your vegetables. We really enjoyed the friendly welcome and were delighted with the quality of the produce. Cheap and organic! It makes a change from shopping in the supermarkets when we visit.We are going to visit West Wales more often!

Brian from Aberystwyth
I have to agree with Tim from Aberaeron below, the Welsh Red Mustard is the best I have ever tried, it has a nice sweet taste and wonderful fiery kick. I had some in Lord Beechings with my steak and they told me that all of the Brain's pubs in Wales serve it! I also managed to get a jar of it from Morgan's butchers on the high street. If you like mustard you will love the welsh red mustard, I'd recommend it to anyone.

Tim from Aberaeron
You must try the best Mustard i've ever tasted. It's Welsh Red Mustard, ask for it when you have a meal, complimented my steak beautifully. Made locally.Great texture, great Colour (Wales Rugby Shirt Red) and fantastic Taste.If your coming to Aberaeron to eat it's a must have with your meal!

For fabulous home style food go to Morgans butchers for a hot roast meat bap - roast beef, yorkshire pudding, and gravy all home cooked and served in a bap - HEAVEN, esp when had heavy night!

Nique, Gobowen
Kelli Jones, I totally agree! Smiths butchers in Gobowen makes the best sausage I have ever tried. Even better than those from Jimmys farm!

Miners Arms in Pontrhydegroes!

The wholefood cafe in Machynlleth is an excellent vegetarian cafe - consistently high quality and imaginative food and friendly service.

The new butcher in Gabowen (nr oswestry) has the best sausage I've ever tasted. I tried them first at Stans super store st. martins, then visted his shopto buy them direct. Beatiful, and that's just the butcher.

I've just eaten a couple of pies produced by the Grosvenor Bakery in Llandrindod Wells. One steak and ale and one lamb and leek. Yes I'm a pig but if you had tasted them you'd have stuffed your face as well. Quite simply the best manufactured pies I have ever had - filled with meat and gravy, ace pastry and packed with care. I shall be filling the freezer!

Fresh fruit is the best food. It's good for you and is healthy.

Myfanwy from Llanfair Caereinion
Rikki Lloyd is not just the best butcher in Welshpool (he sells genuine local produce not stuff moved around after dark in unmarked lorries) but I defy anyone to find a better butcher anywhere. The level of respect given to both the meat and the customers is unparallelled and the service is excellent. In fact, the banter in Rikkis would have the most hardened veggie reaching for a lamb chop. The pork pies are so good that they tempted a friend back to pork pies heaven after a twenty year famine and I just ask out of interest whether Rikki is officially Britain's most handsome butcher? BBC Mid Wales, please find out and tell the waiting world!

The Great Oak cafe in Llanidloes is the most wonderful vegetarian cafe I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. Everything is home cooked and the coffee fantastic.

In answer to Sian from Llanelli, wanting to know about the Tudor Lamp - well, we don't have a Bell Inn in Llangrannog, just the Ship and the Pentre for many a long year. But I see there's another message posted about the Bell at Llanyre - could that be the one with the lamp?
Fri Feb 10 21:48:07 2006
Sian, Llanelli
Has anyone heard of Tudor's lamp which is supposed to be in the Bell inn, Llangrannog. This is an old story but I can't find any reference to it. Could anyone help, it makes interesting conversation while eating out and as the lamp belonged to a relative of mine I would like to visit the Bell inn if it's still there.

The New Inn at Brynhoffnant. Great value and generous protions in a beautiful location.

Rikki lloyds is the best family butchers in welshpool if you want really good meat.

We stayed at the Brynafon Hotel in Rhayader and the local Welsh Lamb is just the best my wife had one of several vegatarian options (fetta cheese, vine toms and rosti) which she really enjoyed.

You just can't beat Welsh meat be it the lamb or the welsh black beef. I travel from the West Midlands especially to visit Rikki Lloyd's Butchers in Welshpool (when our Welshpool caravan is shut!) to stock up the freezer !! You can't beat any of the delicious meat for sale in that shop.

all the food we had in Wales was good. Everything is served so hot, which is different than here when warm is as good as it gets. Don't know how they do it? Had an excellent meal at the Llanhilleth hotel.(sp)

Llanfaes Dairy, Brecon. Potentially the BEST icecream parlour in the world, in my extensive experience of ice cream - all home made on premises a real variety of flavours, try the banana and toffee. Every one i take there, which is a lot, agrees with me.

Blue Creek cafe in Aber is the most cosy and homely cafe i have ever been to! Nothing better than relaxing on the sofas with a fruit smoothie and a big peice of devil's food cake! Heaven!!

If you have not been to the Carlton House in Llanwrtyd Wells you are missing out on the expereince of a lifetime. Its like dinning with your close friends, the service is wonderful, the wine is fantastic, the surroundings are very comfortable and the food... their is not a word that could give justice to what Mary Ann Gilchrist and Paul Roberts do. Thank you so much.

Go and check out the Bell Country Inn out at Llanyre (1 1/2 outside of Llandrindod Wells towards Rhayader). It boast 5 continents foods, ranging from Indian to Eygptian and there is also an extensive vegetarian range which is refreshing.
It's a beautifully situated place with an amazing view and the people are friendly and warm.....the beer's not bad either!!!!!

The Carlton House in Llanwrtyd Wells,is very good for seafood, and you can even ring the chef to find out what is fresh on the day. Now that is good service.

Why not try the wonderful take away in Cwmtydu!! Excellent Bacon Rolls and Toasties! Lovely cakes too!!

In reply to Maj's question - try the Hive on the Quay in Aberaeron (behind the honey ice cream place). It serves really nice seafood, and there's even a fish shop across the courtyard, so you can take some home with you!

What I would truly like to know is where I can find a good fish and seafood restaurant in Mid Wales - perhaps on the coast, Aberystwyth, Aberaeron...? (not talking fish & chips here!) Anyone else out there a true fish & seafood lover?....

I can’t find a nicer place to eat than Sosban Fach in Lampeter! The staff are so friendly and the food is always fresh and tastes absolutely fabulous! The toasted sandwitches are the best I've very had!

The Grosvenor Bakery, Llandrindod Wells: The standard white, brown and wholemeal are superb, but their organic range is truly the Bread of Heaven

I have to go with Sian. Every time we pop back we have to stock up on the waffles. There's none anywhere else that come even close.

Haydn Davies from Llanbadarn Fynydd
Llanbadarn Fynydd sells a lot of home made cakes from flapjacks and welsh cakes to cream sponges and fruit cakes. They are the best because they are home made. They need to be tasted to know what I mean.

You have to try the honey ice-cream at Aberaeron. It is fantastic. And so are the chips at the Celtic.

The Honey Ice creams from the Honey Farm in Tywyn Gwynedd, have to be tasted to be believed. A treat for all ages! Plus the Honey Bear of course!

Elin from Cardiff
The ice cream in Caffi'r Patio, Llangrannog, is out of this world. It's really home-made with superb flavours like trifle and amaretto. And the fruity ice-creams like mango or strawberry have real chunks of fruit.

Tregroes Waffles: A visit to Aberystwyth fair is not complete without eating a few of these waffles. They are simply delicious...
