I was expecting this place to be closed. But it was open. Although despite the town centre being busy, I was the only customer in here alongside the 2 staff. The interior is fairly impressive with large booth-type seating. But it felt a little dilapidated. The solitary real ale was Felinfoel Double Dragon, which was ok. With nobody in, the place lacked atmosphere. Not quite sure how or why the gents toilets were in such a state. Disappointing. blue_scrumpy - 14 Nov 2016 19:48 |
Decent beer and a relatively pleasant Victorian interior wasted by listless attention to detail - we did have free rein on the juke box though and the barman and barmaid had no problems with that. Nobody in there of an evening so hard to work out how it keeps going. Could be great and is actually a lot less than that. BoehmBawerk - 1 Mar 2013 13:23 |
the pub actually smells of sick and is always full of drunk inbred rugby students nayf1974 - 19 Jun 2010 00:20 |
Good ale, spacious seating and always full to brimming on reclaim the streets night. DeggyT - 4 Nov 2006 21:41 |
Was in Aber in the late '70s and the landlord was a miserable old bugger then - it seems that things haven't changed in the intervening years. Rating based on past experience (but given the comment from Stus.search.4.mild I'm in no hurry to revisit the past) tubs - 6 Oct 2006 07:04 |
