Walkers, book browsers and the literary glitterati all
flock to this creaky, part-13th-century inn, with heavy black beams and warm red walls.
The atmosphere is as cosy as you'd hope such a pub would be, but the food is many

Granary
( 01497-820790; Broad St; mains £6-11; 9am-5.30pm; )
Popular and welcoming, this bustling
country-kitchen cafe is a reliable choice for breakfasts and snack lunches. Vegetarians and
families are well catered for, with menus for all, and you can check your email over a cof-
fee using the free wi-fi.

; Broad St; mains £12-18)
Rebuilt and expanded after a fire par-
tially destroyed the 16th-century building, this smart gastropub is a welcoming place. It
has a large garden area for al fresco food and a fancier restaurant upstairs. The internation-
al menu follows that increasingly common mantra: local, organic and sustainable.

Finally
there's something to do in Hay at night other than reading all those books. Converted from
a Methodist chapel and filled with artistically mismatched chairs and sofas, this very cool
