  • Outstanding pub conversion

This town centre pub is located opposite the bus/tram Interchange. It is a beautifully restored former 1920s cinema and boasts eight hand pumps offering regular and ever-changing beers from near and far. The Gwynt Y Ddraig Black Dragon cider being sold by handpump is no longer considered to be a real cider following CAMRA's revised definition of real cider in July 2021. The large seating area is on two levels with several private booths facing the back bar. Busy at lunchtimes on market days (Wednesday and Friday). Food is available all day every day from 8am-11pm. The team of experienced bar staff are well able to advise on ales and help with your choice.

Reopened by May 2021 after COVID

Conversion

This is a fine example of an early 1920s cinema, exceptionally theatrical in its plan and decoration. It has been beautifully converted and is Grade II-listed. The large seating area on two levels has several private booths at the rear of the bar. The usual range of ales and meals is available from Wetherspoon's.
