Railway Tavern, Newtownback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
After a very nice Italian meal at La Terrazza on Park Street (formerly the Cross Guns and still displaying many original features), we finished our Mid Wales crawl with a visit to the Railway Tavern. This is a very friendly single bar pub. We sat next to the bar and soon found ourselves staring into the abyss, as the cellar door was opened for fresh supplies of bottled cider and ice! The entrance to the cellar is right by the bar. The place was fairly busy and real ale is clearly the beverage of choice. Woods Pot o' Gold, Hancocks HB and an ale called Chinook were on. Locals thought the latter was brewed by Cottage. But I'm not convinced. Friendly place. Liked the sign on the condom machine in the outdoor gents - "Out of order. Baby on the way!".

Best real ale pub in Newtown.Proper locals pub and you will always get a warm welcome.

Pub with a real ale atmosphere. M&B MILD, Bass, Worthington and Archers Special were on offer a few weeks back. Besides the "Wagon and Horses", this is the only other pub in Newtown with any MILD.
