The Bee Inn

The Bee Inn is a long established Country Pub that has provided a hub for the community of Eglwysbach village for many years. The Bee Inn has been recently acquired by new owners; the Skelley family. Local to the village and long standing patrons of The Bee Inn, our experience spans two family generations, brining decades of knowledge that have brought new life and passion to the pub and a new experience to the community. Centred at the heart of the pub's revival lies our desire to provide delicious, home-cooked food; it is all freshly prepared using, wherever possible, locally sourced Welsh ingredients. We strive to create a unique country experience, with the local community and businesses at the forefront of our endeavours. Playing a significant role in village life means consistently providing an environment where people feel relaxed and where they know their specific needs and wants will be met and catered for by a familiar face. It is our belief that many people come here because they feel the pub is as much a part of the village community as the people who live in it.

1st visit, and will definitely be returning. £18 for 3 course Sunday lunch. From the moment we walked in we were made very welcome, the staff are lovely and nothing was too much trouble. The menu is on a chalk board by the bar, plenty of choices, 2 had mackerel pate with toast , one had Brie and one had peppers stuffed with cous cous, all very nice. Two had beef, one had lamb and one had chicken all with roasties and gravy and veg brought on a separate dish, all very tasty. Puddings were excellent too, sticky toffee pudding was so light , crumble and custard and brownie, all excellent. Bar drinks were very reasonably priced too. It's not a large inside so booking is essential. So yes we would definitely visit again, and the village is beautiful. Gorgeous church close by.

The Bootlegger

The Bootlegger was first established on 01.03.2014. 29,307 days after prohibition ended, The Bootlegger family opened their doors in their first bar in Bristol, since then the family has carried on its journey heading west, opening it's doors in Cardiff, back to where the minds who conceived the idea grew up. There's still a lot more to come from the Bootlegger family who will spread their wings more in future times.

Pennyroyal

Neighbourhood cocktail bar with curated spirits and crafted hip hop. Look for Spirits and Remedies in the window on High Street in Cardiff

Reviewed By Wynner111 - Newport, United Kingdom

Well the lady below is a pleb aint she? "I dont like it so everyone else is wrong" ok boomer. The team here are friendly and proper funny. They love going off menu- ive had stuff off their comic book and ive also had a great margarita- they also like making crazy drinks up just for you. Everything is always value and you can taste the booze in it unlike most cocktail bars. Go to pennyroyal- avoid the woman below.

Bessies

Reviewed By MartletwyOnTour - Wales, United Kingdom

Le arbennig yw Bessies lawr yn y Gwaun. Tafarn unigryw gyda'r rhyn teulu yn rhedeg ers, mae'n debyg, yr 1840au. Gyda lwc, bydd Bessie yno i estyn croeso cynnes! Bessies is a wonderful and unique establishment. To have a good pint of bass served by a jug into the pint glass through a kitchen hatch is really quite something! If you're lucky on your visit, Bessie herself may be there by the fire, happy to talk to her guests. She and her establishment, which her family have run I believe since the 1840s, really is one of the jewels in the crown of west Wales.
