Come here all the time being a Brecon local. Friendly staff, a reasonable variety of foods and cakes (could do with a bit more0 but the feather in the cap is the location. Being set in the curtilage of beautiful Brecon Cathedral the setting is sublimely gorgeous, green, peaceful, historic and lowers your heartbeat by about forty beats. Apart from the tea and cakes you can walk inside this stunning cathedral and even see the historic military chapel and view the iconic colours of the South Wales Borderers that were involved in the Zulu wars.* There is also a lovely little shop and toilets on site.
*The 24th Regiment - South Wales Borderers - established their Regimental Depot in Brecon in 1873 and the Havard Chapel in Brecon Cathedral was dedicated as the Regimental Chapel in 1922. In 1934, the famous Colours carried by the Regiment during the 1879 Zulu War were deposited in the Chapel. The Queen's Colour 1/24th was saved by Lieutenants Melvill and Coghill after the disaster at Isandhlwana. Both officers, who were killed by the Zulus, were each later awarded a posthumous Victoria Cross. These particular Colours, because of their significance, were encased in 2002 to prevent further deterioration.
Incredibly friendly service , delicious food (we had the Welsh rarebit, meat & cheese platter & thee best coronation chicken sandwich ever. Lovely setting too. Highly recommend!
This is a nice place to come for lunch and we're glad to walked a little bit further out for it. Staff were friendly and attentive. we had the Welsh rarebit and the vegan sandwich - the bread for both was so fresh and delicious.
Prices were reasonable which was nice as many other places in Brecon are on the higher side. Places to sit both inside and outside in a lovely location.
