    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!

    Hearty food cooked with flare. Always flavourful and beautifully presented. The owners and staff are very welcoming and accommodating. Nice selection of beers. The inn has bags of character and has a friendly atmosphere with a mix of locals and visitors. The whole family live this place which makes the 25 mile drive worth it. Faultless
