Popped in for a drink this time, quiet and friendly. Have eaten there in the past and food quality can vary from excellent to very poor. Service always very good though.
Update: visited again March 2025, service great, Rowan was very helpful and friendly, good tasty.

Unfortunately had a bit of a negative experience here. We came in early evening with two small children. Had to wait over 40 minutes for our food (it wasn't particularly busy) and when I asked about the wait I was made to feel like it was our mistake. Then when the food came the sausages my 5 year old girl ordered were raw inside and had to be sent back. They kindly recooked them, but it was still far from a great evening...! I wouldn't go here in the evening if you have kids.

I arrived at the Startling Cloud with my friend for an evening meal last Saturday evening. It was not very busy and we waited over 30 minutes for our food to arrive. We ordered the chicken curry and sausages with mash. I was startled by the quality of the food, it was appalling. The sausages were burnt on some sides and not cooked properly and my friend's curry was a very small portion and not cooked well. We had to leave most of our food. The table had bits of food everywhere under it. Considering it wasn't cheap either, it was a waste of time and money. It brought a cloud to the end of a nice day out. Will not return.

Would have been 5 stars had Jess (who i had specifically asked for when i booked.. had been working) been holding my sons birthday party there for last 3 years the previous two parties I've had there were amazing and it was Jess who works there who's amazing with the children, patient, kind and really made an effort with them (going above and beyond to make sure they were all happy! ) really made it extra special. Had to wait a bit for food to be served this year.. had Jess been there to entertain the children in between her duties would have made life much more easier. The food was nice once we received it (the children aren't the best at waiting) Will try again next year.. with most the children having special needs it's good for them to have the same routine, interaction.

Excellent service from our waiter John. Food was really nice and plenty of it. John checked in with us during the meal to see if we needed anything else. Our best experience yet at the Starling Cloud in Aberystwyth .

Room was great. Pub breakfast was delicious with great vegan option. Could not hear a single car outside even though we were on the road side. Walkable distance from the town. Would recommend

Woken up at 7am by workers dismantling scaffolding. It was extremely noisy drilling into the walls. We called to ask them to pause, which they did for about 30 minutes! You would think people operating a hotel would use common sense and arrange this job to be completed after 11am. So stupid. No apology since, which naturally would annoy any customer - hence my review.

We came in last night while it was quite empty at around 7pm. We stood at the door waiting to be served for over five minutes which is fine but no one acknowledged us or even said we will be with you in a minute. We then finally got served, and got given an A4 sheet of paper with severely limited food choices on it. There was only one vegetation main option, which was very disappointing considering online it said there was several. We usually love marstons and hate to leave a bad review but we were left with long waits and nothing said about the limited menu. Very disappointing.

Always had good food & the staff are really nice but the policy of switching the bar area down the other end near to the childrens play area is a total disaster for anyone wanting a relaxing pint
