Well worth finding this place which is tucked away down a side street. Wye Valley HPA is the regular along with cider and 4 guest ales. Excellent condition yesterday and pretty good service considering that it was crowded due to the arrival of a special train! Pool table and darts board. Usually opens at 1400 but can open earlier by prior arrangement. Easily the best pub in Aber.

This pub is criminally underrated. The guy behind the bar gives advice on what is good, what you'll like, what is new, what is tried and tested. The drink is excellent. As a ciderhead (with a beery friend), the cider was spot on.

A really excellent pub.

I visted this pub on an eight day "tour of Britain" and can say that it was by far the best pub that I visited. A great selection of beers and excellent and knowledgable staff who knew good beer. I drank a couple of funny tasting local ales before setting on the "Hereford IPA" which I was not expecting a lot of (southern shit beer from a cider area) but enjoyed it so much that I had five more before staggering back to the hotel. A must see pub and the only one I have ever rated as 10 out of 10.

Managed to track this little pub down - tucked away along a back street behind the castle (also near to a fantatstic bookshop). A small but varied selection of Real Ales and a friendly landlord. There were a few regulars there all of a variety of ages but very welcoming.
Great painting of a ship sailing by the castle can be found in the bar at the bottom.
Had a really nice stout while there. Would recommend this pub to any real ale fans who find themselves in this part opf Wales.

Open after a refurb that has refreshed the place without spoiling its character. Fantastic selection of ale and always a really friendly welcome.
