As far as pubs go, this was a good one. Some regular "pub food". I'm a picky eater...so to me…read morethat's not great. I'm also American...so I wanted a beef (not pork) hot dog, "French fries" not chips, and any salad dressing that wasn't mayo in disguise would have been great on my "salad". Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. If you like pub food, they did a good job of it. The atmosphere was good, the locale was fabulous, and the staff were all super sweet. I liked it. The 3 Stars is just because I want to be able to count on Yelp to give me 5 stars only for the super fabulous. As far as pubs go this is a 4.5. Oh, and it's kid-friendly, which I like.

I'll keep this short and sweet as I was only in there for an hour or so…read more I found the pub to be a really nice and relaxing place with a great selection of beers,and an even better choice of Bourbon,not everywhere has a bottle of Knob Creek behind the bar! If i'm honest,the reviews moaning about the Landlord make me like this place even more,as myself and my fellow Metal Heads were made more than welcome (Not always the case in most non Metal pubs in small towns). So if you are in the area,pop in for a pint of Celtica in a really comfy seat and you never know,you may get to see the Boss get angry : )

I used to pop in a few times while living here. It offers great fresh looking /tasting food but…read moreshuts around 4 like most places around here.. Luckily we had booked this time , as it was rammed..this place needs to expand as I found it especially suffocating today...all the tables and chairs are crammed together, so their waitresses have to be anorexic to work here...I'm.not kidding.. Sitting down I had a gander at the drinks menu..this was very limited..when I asked for a white wine spritza the waitress looked at me baffled and suggested i could make my own as they don't do them.. The food consisted of burgers, lasagne, wraps, soups, sandwiches and tapas...well I say tapas but there were maybe five different dishes to try from..the salads are really tasty but I've always had a salad here. My companions decided to order the lasagne to be later told it was not available...(why was this information not provided when we first Sat down) so we all opted for a veggie burger.. When it arrived it was pleasant ..but I have had worse I have had better..also the chips were not home made... Snaffling this we chose the lemon and a caramel cheesecake to finish. Here we had to wait for ages for our plates to be cleared because the staff were too busy making out with each other..really professional..and when the waitress finally decided to serve us she placed the fresh drinks down without taking the emptys with her..so our table was left cluttered.. The lemon cheesecake was divine..but this place is very overrated..the menu.is limited, the place is crammed and they stop serving food at 16:00..oh and most of waiters were rubbish..I think I will try Blue Sky again..

Yes it's good , slight flaws but on the whole it's good…read more Firstly it's let down a little by it crockery , although it looks nice and artisan . It's chipped of the glazing is cracked ! Secondly it's let down by its opening hours and not open at night This is a great place for breakfast and lunch with healthy ish meals and amazing tapas with divine salad . It's price range is shall we say manchester prices for a essentially a cafe Also do take aways

Swn Y Mor is an excellent place to stop for a meal during the day…read more Two sisters from Northamptonshire, England, run this cafe, and one of them is an excellent chef, baker behind this great find just down the hill from Criccieth Castle. I wasn't ready for a full meal, but opted for what turned out to be probably the best dessert I've had since arriving in the United Kingdom a week prior. I ordered the berry and apple pie and one of the sisters recommended adding a hot creamy custard over the top. It was pure heaven along with a pot of traditional tea. They make all of their desserts from scratch, and make them with pride and great skill and elegance. This place is definitely a slice of heaven on earth, and a place not to overlook if you find yourself in the area.

Restaurant with the best views in the UK. Probably…read more It's worth a visit just for the stunning views of Cader Idris through the massive front windows. Bwyty Mawddach is (I think) a beautifully converted barn, full of oak and slate and that breathtaking vista. It's run by Ifan and Amelie, with much of the lamb served in the restaurant farmed on the surrounding land by Ifan's brother. Downstairs is a lounge area, with the main seating area upstairs. I've always been in a big group every time I've been here and can attest that it's a great venue for friends and families. The food is largely local and seasonal. It's reasonably priced and there's a good selection. I've never had any complaints about the service.

We had breakfast here and I'm sorry to say it was really disappointing…read more The waitress was pretty unfriendly and got sniffy over 15p on a £12 bill, then the table we sat at wasn't cleared or wiped despite the place being pretty quiet. On to the food. The breakfast didn't include black pudding, that was extra making it about £7. Hash browns were laden with fat and soggy, toast was hot floppy bread, beans were tasteless, bacon was thin but ok, sausages were the most awful cheap crap money can buy, the only redeeming factor was the black pudding which was good. Finally, the waiter stared at me blankly when I asked for a pepper grinder.... If you're after breakfast go to Morrison's cafe down the road. It's of similar quality (not good) however it's cheaper.

The Taj Mahal - Exquisite Bangladeshi & Indian Cuisine - is by far the best restaurant of…read moreMachynlleth indeed! I would say it is better than all of the Indian places in Aberystwyth, and I have never been to an Indian restaurant in North Wales. There must be some good ones, too somewhere up in the north of the country. In England my favourite city is Leicester for an Indian. The owners are very friendly guys, so is the staff. It is a take-away place, too but take-away is not for me really. I like to enjoy the atmosphere of the restaurant itself. The interior looks Indian. There are some round tables and unlike too many Indian restaurants in Britain the tables are not too close to one another. Often there is Indian music being played. In the past we have often enjoyed a good meal there on birthdays, Valentine's Day, and we take friends and relatives to the restaurant. The price is okay, too. One cannot complain really. A chicken tikka mosala costs 7.95. The menu is so varied and I often do not know what to choose from. I simply like everything. They do oriental starters, tandoori dishes, specialities, balti bhoona, tandoori special bhoona, balti dopiaza, tandoori special dopiaza, balti jalfrezi, tandoori special jalfrezi, balti pathia dish, balti rogan josh, tandoori special rogan, balti sag walla, malaya, korma, dhansak, madras, vindaloo -ohh, a little bit hot but nice!!, curry, biryani dishes. There's a lot of vegetable side dishes to have and rice, of course. I love the peshwari nan with coconut but the garlic nan is good, too. Do not forget the chutney and pickle tray. I say Cheers with a good Indian Kingfisher beer!
