Fine little back-street pub with a strong community focus. Situated in a predominantly residential area away from the main town centre, but well worth seeking out as it's only a short stroll from the bus station. The patio drinking/smoking area at front of the pub is popular in fine weather. A car park is opposite. It once sported an old Rhymney Brewery hobby horse sign but this was removed from the side of the pub and may be stored on the rear patio. The exterior looks its best in summer when you can appreciate why this pub is a strong annual competitor in the Blaenau Gwent in Bloom competition. The interior has a cosy and comfortable bar which is popular with diners while the intimate room closest to the bar counter, sometimes known as the 'inner sanctum', has various sporting memorabilia including sports tops colourfully displayed on the ceiling with a couple of autographed shirts framed on the walls, it's a good spot to enjoy the local craic. The menu offers good wholesome food at lunchtimes with an evening menu where other options which can be enjoyed in the bar or the restaurant. This community hub is home to a number of local clubs and societies including potholers, walkers and charities. It was once a local flagship for real ale but sadly no more.
