The ales were very good here and the barmaid was welcoming,but there were 20 of us on a Saturday lunchtime so why wouldn't she have been!! Bizarrely someone was smoking in the lounge,which seemed like a living room full of the cast of the Royle Family. Not a bad grog shop at all.

The brewery tap for the Breconshire brewery. The 3 beers on tap were a Welsh Pale Ale, Cribyn and Golden Valley. There was also a real cider - Weston's Vintage. The front bar was quite cosy, whilst the back bar seemed to be more for games - both playing and watching, with a central pool table.

Popped in tonight. CAMRA winner from 2003 (I think, certainly 03 or 04)

Had 4 choices of Breconshire Brewery ales on, the two I tried were spot on. The bar is a wooden floor, traditional table/chair style in the front bar, with the back bar having a bit more character. Lovely pub, would like to see it at the weekend when busy though, as on a quiet night tonight I was glad the tele was on showing the football.

we called in this pub on a off chance after a long dog walk, as we were informed dog's are welcome in this pub, (unlike others in the town), hungry and thirsty we wanted a meal and a pint. We found the real ale choice more than enough and the beer temperature was just right, there is a pub garden to sit in, overlooking the river, and a varied standard food menu plus a specials board. We ordered off the specials board, and were overwhelmed by the quantity and flavour. Wow what a chef. The staff were very helpful and extremely friendly and so were the local customers. We wouldnt hesitate in recommending this pub to anyone who wants a good pint, a nice plate full of home cooked food, and a happy conversation to go with it.
