A proper back street local, something very rare these days. They had Rev James and Bass on. The Rev James was as good as you'll get it.

Just been bought privately, if the rumours are to be believed, and the previous landlady ( Amanda Garstang ) is set to run the place once more, which is probably a good move by the new owners. Seems like this Pub may have got a new lease of life again, which is great to see nowdays, with so many Pubs closed all over the Country. Nice to see one re-opening again, methinks......

Still closed at the moment, been a couple of Months now, not looking good for this Pub nowdays. Shame !!!!......

Sadly, it looks like this Pub has finally succumbed to the financial pressure put on its Landlady ( Amanda Garstang ) by Enterprise Inns, and all the relevant other debts that come with the licensed trade nowdays, and will close this Saturday May 8th. The future of the Pub is certainly not looking good nowdays..........

Well Ed, It was over 2 Years ago since I posted that comment, and at the time it was how I saw the Pub then, the Licensed trade has changed completly since, with more and more Pubs closing every Day, I'm just glad The Vic is still open, and the Park too......

Well, it was certainly open yesterday (9th May), but once you've said that...
Bass was ok, but when you consider that the Parc Inn is literally around the corner, it's hard to see what attracts customers here. Duncan - call back and see if it's changed from previous visits - personally I thought you would have to be pretty easily pleased to think this was satisfying the punters as best it could.

Another major casualty in the rapid closure of Pubs in Swansea at the moment,I'm afraid....Wonder how many more will suffer the same fate soon. What a sad state of of affairs indeed......

A little Gem of a Pub,tucked away in the back streets of the Village, full of locals, all with their own story to tell, and a great atmosphere as well, just like a good Pub should be. We really enjoyed our visit here, and will definitely be going back too.....
