Food Scene
We love our food and Aberystwyth (and around about) has a surprisingly wide choice of good eateries, so here is a list of our favourites.
Top class authentic Spanish cuisine at reasonable prices, lively atmosphere, friendly service and fantastic Delicatessen. A firm favourite haunt.

Drinks & Nightlife
Cocktail Bars have begun sprouting along Terrace Road in central Aberystwyth towards the seafront, and, if not the absolute best we've tried, are still very relaxingly pleasant haunts. Further afield the Hafod Hotel at Devils Bridge (of Hinterland fame) has an interesting history and stunning nearby waterfalls.
The Hafod Hotel at Devil's Bridge has been recently refurbished and it's new bar restaurant is starting to buzz. Huge wood burner, comfy sofas, good food, cocktails and real ale. The views from the hotel across the gorge at the top of the Rheidol Valley are second to none, as are the local waterfalls and Devils Punchbowl.
