Summary
Mark & Sue Manson’s rural Welsh pub/restaurant is becoming an “old favourite” in this neck of the woods (it’s now twelve years old). Strong points are meat and seasonal fish and they “now also have a range of local-ish gins at the bar as an added inducement” for a visit. “A bit off the beaten track, but very much worth the detour, as they say in the guides”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
