This former hotel is deceptively large. Front left is an intimate public bar with a recently restored fireplace which is most welcoming on cold days. Pictures of old Abersychan and local sports teams of the past adorn the walls including those, sited alongside the fish tank, depicting the climb up Ben Nevis by the Abersychan Temperance Walking Society. A few sports trophies are also on display. A right turn leads to a large walled outdoor seating area. Down the short corridor is a more spacious bar, that hosts live bands at weekends, and a games section. The former skittles alley has been converted into a cafe & coffee house which is a separate business (open: 8:30am - 4pm). Downstairs is an extensive cellar where history has it that Chartist activists hid gunpowder in ovens to keep it dry prior to their fateful march to Newport in 1839. Part of the cellar is the Cavern, a weekend evening music venue that again is a separate business with the entrance at the rear of the pub. The regular ale may give way to another once in a while. Bus stop nearby and a public car park almost opposite a few yards to the south of the pub.

One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
A multi-roomed drinkers’ pub last refurbished in the early 1960s. The public bar on the left is unchanged since then with ply panelling around the servery, which has some old shelves, counter (new top), and fixed seating. The passageway from the front door retains the original off-sales hatch in a part-glazed partition complete with window and old wooden shelf. The lounge at the rear, and opened up to a pool area on the right, also has 1960s fittings: counter with a copper top, more ply panelling, stone fireplace etc. A room on the front right with '3' on the door is now used for storage. At the rear right is a room with a removable skittle alley and a function room lies underneath the pub.
