I think that looks pretty good, and that is definitely enough food as long as you refill it often, also for the cage just make sure you switch it up and they will be happy, also do you only have one guinea pig, if so you should try to get another if you can
I do. when I adopted him, they got him only as one from the guy who gave him up so they weren't /aren't sure how he is with others so they said he was solo.
A Guinea Pig
Teenage Guinea Pig
Apologies, but I'm kind of confused by the picture. Are these two separate cages with two separate guinea pigs or do you just have one guinea pig? What is the square footage of the cage you are asking about?
there 2 separate attached together, ramp in between . I'm just wanting to make sure that the food area (the smaller area with the majority of hay) is big enough to just eat and the rest is his play area. the large cage is the Midwest cage size

As long as he has lots of hay available for him to eat and play in then it is fine.
Please do get him a friend though. I’m sorry you have been given poor advice from the place you got him from - he doesn’t and shouldn’t be kept by himself.
Bonding is a specific process which relies on compatibility. I’ve added some guides below to help
As he is a male, he will need a male friend which means your cage will need to be bigger than a Midwest. Two boars need 12 square feet of uninterrupted space.
Alternatively, have him neutered and then after the six week wait, look to find him a sow.
