Y Llew Coch - Mach (The Red Lion Machynlleth Town)
11 Heol Maengwyn, MachynllethPre-booked a table of 8 during our family holiday after reading excellent reviews. We ordered a range of meals and every plate was amazing. All arrived hot and delicious. 2 Welsh lamb rogan josh with a side of garlic naan to share, really tasty, lots of lamb and tasted amazing.
Shoulder of lamb was huge, lots of meat and no gristle or skin and a really tasty gravy to go with the sides. Pie of the day was a proper pie. Seabass was beautifully presented and the sides were cooked to perfection. Welsh lamb lasagne tasted great and was a good portion. Kids meals were well sized and when we asked for an extra plate it was no problem.
The service was excellent, couldn't have asked for better and the children were well looked after and had lots of games to play.
From the outside it was deceptively small but inside it was modern, clean and welcoming.
We ate early evening and lots of tables were reserved which I think is a good sign.
I'm told the beers were good and I can confirm the wine was delicious.
A fabulous dining experience given our party size and little people, I wish I lived closer as I'd happily make it my regular.

Riverside Hotel Pennal
Pennal, MachynllethWe are here on holiday staying with friends again. We do try to call into The Riverside inn (Glan Yr Afon) whilst we are here. We called on the Sunday morning 20th September 2026 to ask if it would be possible to have a Steak and eggs for my husband who only eats meat and protein. With it being Sunday roast we thought the chef would politely say no... lol ? but they didn't. We reserved a table for 1.30pm and off we went. When we arrived the young lady who greeted us was very pleasant and took us to our table. The restaurant as usual was clean and welcoming. The staff were so nice. We ordered drinks and the young man who I spoke to earlier on the phone took our food order. Steak and eggs and a Sunday roast
The food arrived... the steak was cooked how my husband had asked. The Sunday roast looked beautiful. Both meals were hot and there was plenty on the plates. Was it enjoyed???? Well all I can say is that there were no complaints and only empty plates went back to the kitchen. Yet another happy satisfied couple and thanks to all your staff. It was a brilliant time again. ??

Gwen Restaurant and Wine Bar
21 Heol Maengwyn, MachynllethWe had a two night stay in Wales dining the first night at the Ynshir restaurant and the second Evening at Gwen, we had an amazing stay
The Gwen restaurant was intimate and all the staff were extremely knowledgeable
The tasting menu was varied with lots of little extras, the food was exquisite and expertly explained in each course. Corrin and Jaimee have developed a real culinary experience which is intimate and inclusive while sharing with other diners
We would highly recommend

China Garden Take Away
40 Heol Maengwyn, MachynllethThis is the place you've been looking for!! Honestly, I kind of want to gatekeep this spot, but it's too good not to share. The food is phenomenal, and the atmosphere is incredible, it feels like an old-school California Cantonese dining experience, which is so rare these days. It's such a treat to find a true gem like this in the SFV. I would literally drive across L.A. just to eat here again. I'm obsessed. Also, the woman who helped me tonight was so lovely, kind, professional, and genuinely warm but not at all overbearing which is really important to me as someone that goes out a lot. 10/10, this place is special. AND there's parking!!

Shilam Tandori (Machynlleth)
Maglona House, Penrallt St, MachynllethDespite the negative reviews I found the food amazing!
The lamb madras was fiery but with a slightly sweet flavour which was delicious. The lamb was tender. The sag aloo had a great flavour. The mushroom rice was great. The chapati also was fresh. The poppadoms were crunchy and the dips were spot on.
The portions were big. Plus I was given a free popadom and a dip. The waiter who served me was friendly.
I'd definitely come back and I hope the top standards continue.
9.5 out of 10.
Cheers Shilam you made my evening!
