   Had a wonderful meal here! The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The service was also fantastic—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The only slight downside was that the chairs weren’t the most comfortable, and the room was a bit chilly, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience. We still had a great time and would definitely return. A few small tweaks and it would be perfect!

   We were looking forward to a great evening of fine food and wine as advertised, but unfortunately we only had a choice of a £50 pp valentine set menu which was disappointing in the extreme with only three choices per course, two really by the time you dismiss the vegetarian option, so starters were left with raw salmon or very greasy pate. This menus should have been clearly posted all over the web site and on open table at the point of booking to avoid utter disappointment. Vent over ! On the upside the staff were very efficient and very friendly, they tried their best to apologise and offered complimentary drinks at the end while we waited for a taxi.

   Our third visit here in three months and it never disappoints. The food is of an incredibly high quality, with the majority being locally sourced. There is always a warm welcome from Craig, Kyle and the team. There is a real authenticity to the Rhydspence which is so good to see. The team haven’t tried to turn it into a “trendy” Gastropub, instead staying with the genuine feel of a 14th century inn and using it as a canvas to showcase some great food and service. If you are looking for a 25 page menu and a wine list to rival the Encyclopaedia Brittanica in volume, you may be disappointed. But if you want a nucleus of quality dishes, done well, with an appropriately comprehensive and reasonably priced wine list then look no further! My only reservation is telling everyone how good The Rhydspence is as it might make it difficult to get a table the next time we visit….. Great work Team Rhydspence.

    Love this place! They are always friendly and the food is simply outstanding and would be the kind of thing you'd expect to get in a much more expensive setting. It's easy, homely and we always leave feeling well and happy. Recommended!
