I went to some fairly strange pubs in Wales over the weekend. But this one was possibly the strangest of all. Opening times are limited here. So I saved my visit until the evening. The pubs seems to open at 7pm each day. Once past the cacophony of bells that greets you as you open the door, you will see the bar in front of you with rooms either side. I opted for the room on the right, where all the other customers were. 2 ales were on - Hafod Little Marvel & Cwrw Llyn Golau Pale. Not wishing to get the pronunciation wrong, I ordered a half of the Golau Pale which the barmaid fetched from the opposite side of the bar. Unfortunately I couldn't see what she was pouring, as she brought a pint over. She seemed deeply offended when I said I only wanted a half and placed the pint on the counter expecting me to stomach it, despite it not being my error. She eventually poured half into a separate glass. But her reaction soured my opinion of the pub. It's situated in an idyllic setting. But I wonder how many visitors they actually get. They certainly seemed uneasy at a stranger's presence. Nice pub, but not the most welcoming to visitors. blue_scrumpy - 8 May 2018 20:15 |
