One of my favourite places to eat and the River Wye setting is ideal. A short but perfectly formed menu reasonably priced. Love the fish and chips. If you love fresh fish this is the place to go. The scampi and pea starter was delicious and the chicken brest salad not bad either!
Another very good evening at the River Cafe, very busy and lively.
Soup,squid and goats cheese to start followed by lamb, pork and hake. Together with a bowl of crispy chips to share.

What a magical place to stay. The rooms are beautiful and clearly have been newly decorated and fitted. The cafe serves brilliant coffees, cakes, sandwhiches, quiches, freshly baked bread. Perfect for picnics before you head out into the Breacon Beacons to explore.

Its the second time I've been to the river cafe where once a year there is a jamming session for the harpists with the Glasbury Arts Harp Summer School. The staff were very accommodating and friendly and the meal was delicious. Hands down the best fish and chips I have ever had, and the pasta there was perfect! The Eton Mess was also lovely! Great atmosphere, a beautiful view over the river, and excellent food and service! I would very highly recommend!

Located on the premises of what was the River Cafe (and the newsagents many years ago).

A nice little cafe overlooking the river Wye. Eat in or take away, with an exciting selection of cakes, savouries, and sandwiches. I enjoyed a good coffee and Welsh rarebit, the soup looked good too.

The manageress was delightful and very helpful. We only had tea and toast but when I asked for river Wye paddling advice it was no trouble for her to get one of their professional guides to come and talk to me. Priceless advice.

Dropped into The River Cafe today with my wife and two friends. Very pleasant experience had by all. We ordered 2 steak sandwiches with chips and 2 fish and chips. All cooked to an excellent standard with decent portions. Service was more than satisfactory and the cafe itself is to restaurant standards, even beating some of the restaurants I've eaten at. Well worth a visit. Thankyou

We stayed at the river cafe on a cycling trip and loved it here. They locked our bikes away securely, left us tea & cake for us when we arrived late, the room was so comfy and warm, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. Couldn't recommend highly enough!

Fabulous food, great staff and a brilliant chef.

New chef, new menus! Tried brunch today (23/09/18) all really good. There will be changed menus each day for all meals but some old favourites will remain eg. Fish and chips.
It will be interesting to see how this will unfold in the coming months.

This is a lovely place that serves a fairly average priced cup of well made tasty coffee. The food is delicious and served by very happy, pleasant and professional staff. The cafe itself feels cozy whilst functional with plenty of space aroind some large tables interspersed with smaller cosier 2 and 4 seaters.

The view onto the river is second to none, in the sunshine it would be nothing but splendid.

Good cuppa, good food, great location the River Cafe has it all in spades!

Great grub, great service and a view to die for, well after you pay the bill of course.
Limited menu which to me shows good taste and fresh cooking, we were not disappointed. We will be back. This place is a gem, you need to book in the summer months.

Loved it so much we came back for breakfast. Lovely location on the side of the river (obviously), good food and friendly staff. Recommended!

This is a beautiful spot on the river. Food is good, not too complicated and very tasty. On the more expensive side for the area but not ridiculous. No need to book but to guarantee and table without a wait it’s a good idea.

Lovely place. And the food was wonderful as were the staff, couldn't get a look outside as we'd been in during the evening but the ambience was great.

Regrettably only had a one night stay however it has the feel of a location that leaves you wanting more.
Who does not want a room overlooking the river, food and service were faultless.

Had an excellent evening meal last night with family. The food was superb and the service as well. Would thoroughly recommend.
