The staff were nice, telling beforehand that lamb was not available on the menu, but could have been more attentive as to ask whether everything was ok after the food was served. We had nachos for starter and fish as main. Seabream is served as a whole and is very filling, but one must beware of tiny little bones while eating. This is something the waiter could have warned of as well while serving the food. Honey ice cream is a must at the Hive: they have all sorts of different flavours from sesame to orange and hazelnut. The restaurant part of the place is family friendly, altohough the front part of Hive serves as a bar at the same.

You can eat in as well, althoughwe have never done this is does look very clean and airy and I am sure we will get round to eating in one day!! The staff are all very friendly and the service is effecient, however the waiting area is very small so you may end up standing outside on a cold evening, brr! The actual fish and chips are great and taste like fish and chips should fresh, hot and crispy. I can also recommend there sausages, plain or battered. The curry sauce is ok but definately not the best I have tasted.

The Ferry Inn is a very popular gastropub in an enviable position on the River Teifi. (The views…read moreare fantastic.) It has a cosy bar area, three inside eating areas with river views, two outside eating areas and a terrace to really enjoy the view. They are happy to accommodate diners with dogs (there are also dog-free areas) and it's very child-friendly (there's a children's menu, and some tables seat eight). The menu offers starters at £7.50-£7.95, mains around £18 (except fish and seafood at £24 and steak at £29), desserts at £7.50, as well as a choice of ice creams and sorbets (£3.50-£7.50). They offer a range of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. We chose Sea Bass served with Lemon Parsley Caper Butter, Herb Roasted New Potatoes, Garden Salad with Buckwheat & Broad Beans with Honey Mustard Sauce & New Leaf Microgreens (£24); and the one of the vegetarian options: Glamorgan Crumble a tower of Leeks, Carrot, Breadcrumbs & Mature Cheddar Cheese, Garlic & Herb Roasted New Potatoes, Glebelands Salad, Quinoa, Bean, Vegetable Salad & Fresh Herb White Sauce (£19.95). We followed this with Dark Cherry & Marzipan Bake Vanilla Ice Cream £7.50. Overall, the food was very good, except that the seabass was (disappointingly) over done and therefore falling apart. I always think it's a little odd serving a cold side salad on the side (or in my case underneath) a hot dish, although overall the flavours did work well together. The Glamorgan Crumble was very tasty. Service was a little manic: some staff seemed to run around all evening, and we were served by four different people during the evening. (One was very nice, two were a bit brusque.) They were busy, but we had booked (and were expecting) a table in the downstairs area with a river view, but were shown to a different part of the restaurant area. There were, however, a number of reserved tables which remained empty through the evening, so it seems like they had a few no-shows. Overall we had a nice evening: with two glasses of wine, the bill came to £75 for two, excluding service. It's firmly worth four stars, and of course you're paying for the location, but at these prices, getting the fish right and calmer service would land a five.

I think the first review was already spot on but I'd just like to give mine for further support of this great restaurant. Apparently it's quite a well known one as our lovely B&B hosts in Llandovery had recommended we come here after seeing the dolphins and we are happy to have followed his advice. The menu isn't huge but the selling point here is fresh seafood and prepared to honour their natural taste. My scampi loving boyfriend ordered the scampi meal and I had the very fresh (caught the same morning we were told but not the one we saw on our dolphin boating trip) New Quay European Lobster linguine and it was incredibly satisfactory. The lobster meat was sweet, bursting with lobster flavour and it was the perfect pasta dish and spicy even - a slight surprise given that my boyfriend told me that we would not find good food in Wales. I could have easily had a second serving of that tasty dish. Scampi was very good but Lobster and in Summer, Mackerel are the seafood choices to go for. On a gloomy rainy day, the delicious food can be enjoyed in their cozy and beautiful pub or on a sunny glorious day, if you're early enough, you can have your meal while overlooking the bay of New Quay which is a treat. At sunset it could easily be very romantic and for a very reasonable price.

La Calabria is probably the best restaurant I've been to since arriving in the United Kingdom…read more Nestled in the countryside of central Wales, La Calabria is one of those places you don't expect to find after having had so many fair-to-midland meals. This place prides itself on serving Calabrian cuisine, which the restaurant describes as "... primarily a diet of simple fresh pastas, homegrown vegetables cooked in a myriad of ways, and meats, particularly pork." Pasta, though important to all regions of Italy, in Calabria it is "... treated with an almost reverence." If I had read this about the restaurant prior to going there, I would definitely have had a pasta dish. But I didn't, and chose one of their house specialties instead, Pollo Marsala. Ironically, none of the restaurant's specialties includes pasta. The Marsala was like none I've had in the past, and it was excellent. The chicken wasn't overwhelmed by the Marsala. Overall it was a simple meal served with roasted potatoes and green beans. On this occasion I broke down and had their dessert, trying their homemade ice cream. One scoop of hazelnut and one scoop of Nutella, which may seem redundant to the hazelnut, but there truly is a distinctive difference just like true hazelnut and Nutella. Also, I sampled the Fruits of the World, a berry ice cream. Great care is taken in presenting the meal and making each patron feel welcome. If you arrive early, they invite you to sit down in the front bar area, where you can order drink, look over the menu, order your meal and get to know those sitting next to you. Once your table is ready, your waitress escorts you to your table. I have to admit that my first choice for that night's meal was at the Daffodil Inn, which is down the road in Penrhiwllan, but they didn't have any available tables for the night. In the end, it didn't matter, because La Calabria was excellent and truly exceeded all of my expectations in every way. It is highly recommended to call La Calabria for reservations at least the morning of your dinner plans.

We were so lucky to stumble across this place today - a great, well stocked health/whole food shop…read moredownstairs and a lovely little vegetarian cafe (seats 40 people) upstairs. It will take you ages to choose from the menu of delicious and imaginative meals, 'specials' blackboard, and salad bar - we took quite a while! Only organic, fresh, natural produce is used and, in addition to the hot meals and salads, there are cakes, fresh fruit juices, teas, good coffees - and also wine! Even the most hardened meat eater will find something tasty to tempt him here, but for vegetarians (or even vegans) there is a wonderful choice which is difficult to find in most other cafes or restaurants. As if all this weren't enough, the staff are lovely, friendly and most helpful. Everywhere was very clean and well looked after too. There is a very small toilet upstairs and a larger disabled one down. Lunch is from 11.30am to 3.00pm; drinks and snacks from 9.30am to 4.30pm; the wholefood shop downstairs is open from 9am until 5.30pm.

The chef knows how to layer subtle flavors so that the dish ends up surpassing the ingredients he (or she?) uses. I ordered the £9.95 "Meal Deal" of Risotto, but this had to be the best Risotto I've ever eaten. Other family members ordered a plate of prawns, smoked salmon and soup (£10.95), and a rarebit and soup (£6.95). We shared a cheese platter (£8.50) for dessert. Every bite was exquisite. Our server, Huw, also deserves high praise. He understands fine dining, met our every need, and deserved a nice tip, which we were more than happy to leave.
