After a long period of closure, this Victorian age hotel and bar has re-opened following significant investment. A classy refurbishment has transformed the bar and function room with good quality furnishings. The function room is on the right on entry. The bar will focus on wet trade offering a range of drinks including a couple of real ales dispensed from silver pumps behind a wall which separates the front and rear areas. The idea is to provide a relaxed and comfortable surroundings without the noise or distractions of TV and loud music, a place where the hubbub of conversation and occasional laughter will break the silence. It is intended not to offer main meal food but, in due course, perhaps snacks and tapas. To the left of the hotel is what is left of Mill Street, once the main road into Abergavenny before most of it was demolished.
