Good quality.

We visited here on our way through from North Wales and were so saddened to hear it's closing it's doors as of tomorrow for the foreseeable future. I have rarely visited such a warm, welcoming and homely cafe as this. The delicious coffee, the board games on the shelf, the perfectly seasoned vegan sausage rolls, the squishy cushions by the window where locals perch and wax lyrical about this amazing hub of the community. If local feeling is anything to go by this gem of a cafe won't be shut for long, and when it reopens we'll be back and waiting in the queue!

Had a great lunch at the Great Oak. Thir quiche and three salads for £9.95 is good value and excellent quality. Always look forward to stopping here on our journeys through mid-Wales.

Delighted to find this wonderful vegi cafe in the middle of Wales. My sweet potato and line soup was one of the best soups I've ever had. The flavour and texture and seasoning was spot on. Quiche and salad was exceptional too. The garden at the back is spacious and beautiful. Slightly disappointed by the cappuccino as the taste wasn't brilliant, but overall such a pleasant experience. So 5 star from me.

This is a vegan cafe, which is not a problem to me , a non vegan, BUT I do expect a reasonable experience. I decided to have a Hot Chocolate drink and Scone to eat. The drink was lovely but the Scone was very ( I mean very) dry. It crumbled as I tried to cut it. There was the smallest amount of butter and jam to put on it. It barely covered one half. I tried to attract someone?s attention, when I noticed a sign apologising because the staff were being trained. So sad.

Love the food here, and love that much of it is vegan. Really tasty salads selection, also warm options, the menu changes depending on what they have made that day. I wanted everything! Had a really nice homemade burger and salad. Nice courtyard garden out the back for a hot day. Wish we could visit more often (was on holiday).

Nice holiday lunch for a family of non-vegetarians. This friendly and casual place is a Llanidloes institution and from its 'hippy' inceptions 40 or 50 years ago, it's become all very mainstream nowadays. Some 1970s quirks remain, though, like the bullet-proof, no doubt wholemeal pastry used for the quiche, but whose filling was delicious. Baked potato, like the quiche, was accompanied by three interesting salads of choice. Less appreciated were the pure-plant vegan burgers which were reported as very dry. Good if slightly erratic service but all very friendly and relaxed as you might expect. Very nice tea.

Loved the salads today. Particularly the kimchi one. Akso loved the the Homity Pie and tofu Pad Thai.

I always try to stop at Great Oak Cafe when I pass through Llanidloes. The salads are healthy and fresh, the specials are homey and nourishing, the cakes are luscious and the coffee is really world-class. But the last few times I've tried to visit there didn't seem to be enough staff to keep up with demand. The staff are friendly and hard-working, but there aren't enough of them, and long queues develop. Sometimes I find myself unable to wait and sadly have to go elsewhere.

Why don't you buy a couple of heaters? The food is delicious, the staff are friendly but it is terribly cold to the extent that one does not enjoy the wonderful food.
