In a gorgeous old green building on Ship Street, just a stone's throw from the river, you'll find one of the town's most loved gems - a cafe serving fresh homemade food, and a bookshop selling a carefully curated selection of books (new and old), 'bookish' gifts, and an upstairs gallery showcasing the work of established and emerging artists.
The Hours is a cafe, a bookshop, a gallery, a meeting place, a foodie and cultural hub, and a warm welcome always awaits. Come and see for yourselves. Acclaimed winners of Brecon Beacons Tourism's 'Best Eating Out Experience'; The Hours has been designated the best cafe in the National Park. We regularly run literary and foodie events, and are a venue for Brecon Jazz and Brecon Women's Festival each year.

Report
Acclaimed winners of Brecon Beacons Tourism's 'Best Eating Out Experience'; The Hours is a local gem. You can book 'The Hours' for a special occasion, gathering or meeting - ours is a unique environment which offers a gallery space for meetings or our full downstairs space 'out of hours'. We cater for private dining events, supper evenings, baby showers, birthday parties, anniversaries, or any other special occasion.
Bookshop
Report
We don't think we can describe the bookshop better than The Guardian did when they compiled their list of Britain's best bookshops. Housed in a three-storey Tudor building, all exposed stone walls and inviting nooks, the Hours is a bijou shop stocking just 1,000 covetable titles (fiction, art, poetry, crime, children's titles, walking guides and local interest) in an environment to invite lingering.

Aimed at tree lovers of all ages, this beautifully illustrated handbook is the first guide to foraging specifically from trees, looking at all the incredible things we can get and make from them, from food and remedies to toys, whistles and ink.Words and ideas, poetry and letterpress, walking and baking, haiku and horses - but not all at the same time!'
