"Been for a lovely dinner here this evening. Had a chicken burger (two southern fried chicken breasts, decent portion! , hand cut chips and onion rings and my husband had a lamb burger. Both were absolutely lovely. We had sticky toffee pudding and black forest cheesecake for dessert and both were delicious. Not too big portion wise which was perfect. Service was friendly and non intrusive, food came extremely quickly and was hot, locals and non-locals made to feel welcome. The decor was lovely (the chairs were super comfy which makes a nice change from being tortured on uncomfortable chairs haha . So as someone just visiting locally, I'd highly recommend The Banc!"

"We were slogging along the Welsh Borders on our way to a more distant than expected B and decided that we needed to stop to eat. We happened upon the George and Dragon and it looked OK . I couldn 't describe the initial welcome as warm but we were tired. It felt like a traditional pub even down to the gents being out at the back! (The ladies was inside, though. It was quiet when we arrived and we were put into a dark but cosy little room at the smaller bar; it must be lovely when the stove is lit. The food was excellent. It was produced quickly and tasted home made. It was friendly once we were settled in for eating (and less tired ourselves and we were able to chat with the kitchen staff. I can heartily recommend it, it was just what we needed. It may look a bit unprepossessing at first sight but there is a good range of drinks and a good range of well cooked food, what more can you ask?"

"This was my second time visiting, and this time I took my children. The waitress was quick to see to us when we arrived and take our drinks order, that came in no time. I ordered myself a toastie 2 Childrens meals , after 40 minutes I asked where the order was, a waitress chased it up told us another 10 mins. By this time my young children were becoming restless and bored, we waited another 10 minutes and then decided we would leave. Fortunately they advised the food was ready and that they would box it up for us. It was really disappointing , there were a few complaints while we were there, long waits for food etc. the waitress were busy and polite, but I’ve no idea what the chef kitchen staff were doing to take nearly an hour to make a toastie and 2 burgers! The only up side is that when we eventually got home to eat our “takeout” the food was very nice."

"We were on the Heart of Wales Line Trail and needed a late lunch. The Tower House Gallery was an excellent choice. The Grub in a Mug option was splendid. We both had a tasty mug of leek and potato soup along with a Brie and redcurrant toastie. All cooked by John, yummy. The owners even closed the door as we were more cold than worried about you know what!"

"I live locally and decided on going here for a meal. I've eaten in hundreds of Indian restaurants and lived in Birmingham for 25 years. Have had take away from here before but thought we would try the eat in experience. We had pre-booked a table for 4 earlier in the day. First impressions from outside are not great. The place looks run down and unkept. To be honest the inside isn't any better. Not a picture on the wall, no music playing and cold. The place felt soulless. When we arrived at 7:30 there were two other tables of two. We ordered poppadoms and dips. These came after about 10 mins. We ordered our starters and mains next. These came after about 10 mins. The starters were nice and fair size portions. As we were half way through our starters a table of 19 came in. They had pre-ordered their food. So the wait for our mains was quite a long time. When the main dishes were nice but mine was a little tepid and the cheese naan was very greasy. The food presentation was good. While we were eating a member of staff was bringing big boxes of pre cooked poppadoms and other things through the restaurant to the kitchen which personally isn't very good practice. I decided before I left to use the toilets which was a big mistake. The toilets are really bad. Smell of urine. There is an open drain in the floor of the men's toilets which the urinals and basin empty into. To be honest they smelt worse than a festival toilet. Avoid using them if you can. Overall I was disappointed with the whole experience. The food was nice but everything else let the place down. No atmosphere,cold and dirty. I wouldn't recommend the eat in experience. Oh.. and it's cash only. Which in this modern age I can't quite work out why??? Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £20–30 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 1"
