Improve This Listing

Former local CAMRA Pub of the Year award winner, but now only selling one Real Ale. The spacious front patio with colourful real ale mural - has furniture to suit both vertical and seated drinking which can be covered by a retractable awning when required. Inside it's comfortably furnished with adjoining lounge and snug cum bar/games areas. Several TVs with sound usually muted are ranged around the pub for viewing entertainment especially for sports and racing fans. Ciders and/or perries gain in popularity in summer months. The pub has also raised loads of money for local charities over the years, all listed on a board. Bus stops are a few minutes walk away (in either direction), as is the Risca & Pontymister railway station on the Cardiff/Ebbw Vale line.
