Hall Inn, Gwehelog

Attractive roadside inn with a spacious garden and patio alongside a paddock with chickens and livestock. At the front beside a post box and telephone kiosk is a community notice board which is at the side of a covered entrance that leads to the stone flagged 'Country Bar'. This is very much in the traditional rural pub style with much stonework evident around a fireplace with a stove. Pictures mainly of horse related scenes are dotted around while two deer heads peer down either side of a set of antlers on one wall. Teams compete in local darts leagues here. An advert in the Gents' WC promotes the specialities of a certain London based Thomas Crapper & Co! Like many country pubs it cannot rely on its wet trade alone so there is a strong emphasis on good home-cooked food with main courses supplemented by specials. Lighter bites in the form of sandwiches, baguettes and burgers are available. A separate low-beamed restaurant with thick stone walls and another old fireplace is up a couple of steps and its cosy initmate feel makes this a popular venue for diners. The beer range reflects the locals' choice here.
