"I don't plan on returning to this restaurant. I stopped by earlier this morning and ordered a cup of tea and a prawn salad. However, after the first few prawns, I had doubts about their freshness. I decided to continue eating the salad, but as I had a few more prawns, their chewy texture and bad aftertaste made me realize they were not up to my expectations. (I still have that aftertaste) I finished the rest of the food without causing a fuss. When my plate was cleared, I discreetly mentioned the issue to the lady, but she quickly brushed it off by insisting that they were freshly prepared that morning. I expressed my concern again, but received the same response. I waited for about 10 minutes for a manager to address my issue, but no one came, so I proceeded to pay. I reiterated my concern to the lady at the till, but once again, I was told the prawns were freshly prepared that morning. I explained that just because something was prepared that day, doesn't guarantee freshness, especially with fish. I also mentioned that I eat prawns regularly and wouldn't have left them if they were okay. Still, the manager was not called over. I paid and left, being told to 'have a nice day'. My concern was not raised to a manager as far as I know. I realize I should have insisted on speaking with a manager, but if the staff are not willing to escalate issues themselves, there seems to be a management problem. Constructive feedback is important for businesses to thrive. I don't want to create any problems, and I am not one to speak poorly of a decent business. However, the prawns tasted off, and my comments were not taken seriously when I brought them up."

This cozy cafe, tucked away from the main street, also offers a takeout option. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The staff were welcoming and willing to assist with any inquiries.

Will not be going in again, staff very miserable didn't see one smile, had coffee and tea cakes, tea cakes had been cremated top and bottom . Not a very enjoyable end to our lovely morning in Welshpool

We'd booked in at the Welshpool Steam Railway and had some time before our train. This place provided a good coffee stop. I had a Latte and a Scone which came with clotted cream, jam and a fresh strawberry delicious. My wife had tea and toast with an added treat of Marmite! Service was OK, pleasant enough.

I am confused as to why I can order a small meat breakfast, but not a small vegetarian breakfast at this restaurant. It is not about cost for me, but more about the principle of avoiding unnecessary waste. I left feeling disappointed and hungry because the staff would not be flexible with my food order choices.
