Looking for a reasonably priced B & B for a family wedding in the area the River Cafe, Glasbury was spot on, good location, comfortable clean room, good food and friendly staff, just a pity I couldn't stop more than 1 night.

We did not stay overnight as we live relatively locally. This is a little jewel of a place sat on the bridge at Glasbury. The atmosphere is friendly and intimate. The staff are friendly and regardless of being busy have time to chat and provide a welcoming service. The setting is quaint with local art displayed and a brand new... More

Stayed at River Cafe on a spur of the moment trip to Wales to get some kayaking practice with Dan from River Strokes (which was also great); River Cafe was the meeting place with him so seemed to make sense to stay there. That was a bit of luck. Great location, amazing service, good room and lovely food. Staff couldn't... More

Great location overlooking river, contemporary, food homemade - lovely soup (celeriac with fresh ciabatta bread £4.50) didn't have main dish but they looked good, dessert tasty (panacotta perfectly made with poached seasonal fruits £5.50). Will definitely return - good to know they serve meals in evening. Closed Sunday night, Monday & Tuesday. Only 5 mins from hay-on-wye for shops and... More

Lovely food, great service and a really nice place to eat and relax. clean airy and spacious. to start I had chorizo and scallop salad beautifully cooked and presented. The homemade pasta crab dish could of been slighty bigger in portion but was divine none the less. We would be regulars if only it was closer! We will definetly return!

We stayed at the B&B for one night. On arrival, we were made to feel very welcome (thank you Alex!) and the room for us and our 2 children was great with a comfy campbed for our second child. Evening meal was great - 'proper' food for the children and such a pretty location. The breakfast, included in the room... More

I rarely write reviews but just had to acknowledge this marvellous B&B and cafe. I only stayed one night but wish I could have stayed a week. The rooms were very comfortable and well laid out with everything you could need - I stayed in room 4 ( note the web site numbering is incorrect but I'm sure willl be... More

A short break for 2 families with 4 children, 2 vegetarians, 1 vegan including a child with multiple dietary requirements. The River Cafe were superb.
