Recently reopened following a change in ownership. This old coaching inn in the centre of Chirk is situated on the former Holyhead to London road. A large wooden sculpture of a Welsh dragon presides over the lounge bar, where the real ale handpumps are located and bar food is served. Meals are served in the classically-styled restaurant. The old brewery building behind the hotel is now converted for functions. There is a caravan site nearby.
