  “The Cider Barn is not just a restaurant. We hired The Cider Barn to cater for our wedding and we couldn't be more happy with our choice. We first walked into The Cider Barn and was in awe of the restaurant itself. Inside you are Transported to country restaurant heaven its just perfect. Anyway we went to have an initial meeting with the chef Sophie and Pauline, events coordinator. We were chuffed by their enthusiasm and interest in our day. However as walked away we thought there is no way that will be a reasonable price, given the majesty of this establishment. We were shocked when they revealed to us how very reasonable they are when it came to pricing. Amazing. Couldn't believe it. So then we started eating there and the food is just out this world, so rich and tasteful and fresh, an honestly emotional eating experience! As for the wedding they dealt with our requests brilliantly cooking our bespoke menu. Pauline was a joy to work with. She was to the point had a clear idea of what would work and what wouldnt, decisive and easy to work with. Then came the food on the day. Every single guest of our loved their food. It was palpable in the air.. everyone is loving their food. That is exactly what you want and thats what The Cider Barn gives you. Do yourself a favour and book these guys.. Absolute quality and excellence with great character. We are so thankful to Sophie, Pauline and the guys they truly made our wedding day perfect!”

  “My wife and I had a superb Sunday lunch yesterday. Our first visit. A friendly welcome and serving team. We sat outside enjoying the lovely views across rolling Herefordshire countryside. The food was excellent. Starters of black pudding sausage roll and smoked salmon & shrimp ballotine. Mains of perfectly cooked sea bream fillet and mouthwateringly good stuffed porcetta. Dunkertons cider to drink. Very reasonably priced. All-in-all, a very enjoyable experience.”

  “Incredible standout restaurant in a country setting. We went on Sunday and had a roast. The veggie wellington was full of flavour. The beef was the fave for the meat eaters. You get really generous portions of veg to share. Each one was perfectly seasoned especially the leek gratin. Great selection of local drinks and fun ice cream flavours like fennel or rhubarb.”

  “I think I've just had the best Sunday lunch that I can ever remember. Not only was the meat cooked to perfection, oozing with flavour, but the vegetables were amazing. Each portion was a delight. Delicately seasoned with herbs and toasted seeds they were in a class above what is served elsewhere. All accompanied with a generous serving of delicious gravy. The sticky toffee pudding was also superb. Simply the best.”

  “We had lunch in the restaurant and the service was good. As the food was good in the restaurant we decided to take a couple of frozen meals away with us. Both the fish pie and Shepherds pie were very salty and would not recommend. They are overpriced. There was also no date provided on the best before label. Although we enjoyed the dine in lunch, the takeaway frozen meals let this place down.”

  “Based on the good reviews, we went there for our anniversary 3 months ago. We regret having wasted over £80 for an utterly disappointing meal. Yes the views from the restaurant are stunning, and the decor and service are good. However, the food is very bad. It was not busy at all when we arrived as there were only a couple of people sitting ar a table. My husband ordered lamb steak and I, beef steak. Every thing on the plates are so salty including the veg and gravy that they tasted bitter. The gravy is the worst. They used the same gravy for both lamb and beef steaks. It looks and tastes just like instant gravy granules from a cheap brand diluted in water. We had to force down some of our food as we were already very hungry and we didn't want to waste our money. We wish we could complain and get something else. But you know, you should never complain in a restaurant and order again because you never know what would be in your plate next. A disappointing and depressing meal for our anniversary indeed.”

  “An absolutely beautiful dining experience! The location and views are amazing, the service was incredible, and the food was epic. Such a hidden gem — with very reasonable prices too! If I had to pick something, the dessert was the only thing that didn’t impress, but everything else we loved and can’t recommend enough! We’d definitely go back when visiting the Brecon Beacons again.”

  “What a beautiful restaurant set in a beautiful location, and serving beautiful food. We went here on a Saturday night to celebrate a birthday, and it was an amazing experience made special by the quality of the food and the attentiveness of the staff. If you're looking to go out for a meal, then definitely go a try, you won't be disappointed.”
