Yum! - Edit
We came here twice during our stay in Cwmystwyth. Cute wee spot with a lovely walk down the riverside. The salad bowl was large and delicious and the granola cake and the coffee and walnut cake were also very yummy. Second visit for the Sunday roast which was tasty and very filling. The iced latte came with sugar in which was unusual (and different from our first visit) and way too sweet to drink my partner had to drink it but the other coffees had been great! Staff friendly! Would absolutely return!

Great vegan food!! - Edit
Really delicious and thoughtful food. A lot of time and effort put in to make a high standard of food. Was very busy for lunch on popular days in summer. Great venue with a lovely space for music events. Lovely location with beautiful countryside around.

Dissapointed and hungry - Edit
Arrived too late sadly for the breakfast which had great reviews, and the lunch left me as cold as the rarebit was after it had been covered in cabbage and Mayo.

Great stop off - Edit
I was travelling south on the A470 and was so hungry. The traditional stopping point is Builth but I didn’t fancy just crisps so I looked on Happy Cow and this place popped up. I’m so glad I pulled in for lunch! I needed something hefty and they had loads of vegan options on the menu and as specials. I chose the smashed avo on thick toast with a big bowl of yummy salad. It got me all the way home and made the ordeal of that terrible road somewhat bearable.

Excellent food and friendly atmosphere - Edit
The Lost Arc is a heaven for a gluten free vegan - cakes, lunch, pizza, even a full english breakfast available! Their stone oven pizza is honestly the best pizza I've had. Portions are good size and you get your moneys worth. The staff is super friendly and the overall atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. You can feel the place is built with a big heart, for the community. And the building has an interesting history! I'd give them 5 stars if it was possible (5 stars only go for fully vegan places).
