Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway Tea Room

Located at the Llanfair Caereinion terminus of the historic narrow-gauge steam line, the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway Tea Room offers a charming, nostalgic escape into the heart of Mid Wales. As steam locomotives like The Earl or The Countess hiss on the platform nearby, visitors can enjoy a traditional station experience that feels a world away from the modern rush.

The tea room is celebrated for its selection of homemade cakes, freshly prepared sandwiches, and seasonal light lunches. On warmer days, the outdoor marquee provides a perfect vantage point for train-spotters and families to watch the locomotives shunt and take on water. For a more formal experience, the railway also operates the Welsh Afternoon Tea Train, where passengers can indulge in bara brith and scones served in vintage carriages as the Banwy Valley scenery rolls by.

Continuing the tradition of welcoming those on two wheels, the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway Tea Room is a proud participant in the Bike and Brew Passport. This makes it an essential stop for motorcyclists navigating the sweeping bends of the A458, allowing them to collect a stamp while supporting vital mental health initiatives. With its friendly atmosphere and deep heritage roots, it is more than just a cafe—it is a cornerstone of the Mid Wales touring experience.
