Traditional country pub in a convenient location for the famous Waterfall Walks. It has a large area catering mainly for diners with quality home-cooked food, and a separate bar for use by hikers and for screening live rugby matches on TV. One of the changing cask ales is dispensed by a small barrel sitting on the front bar.

Sunday lunches are especially popular here and booking in advance is highly recommended. The outside tables are equally popular with walkers and diners in fine weather. Several events are hosted here, including: Monday is quiz night; Monthly Bingo night is the first Wednesday of the month; a classic car meet is held on the last Saturday morning of the month; and live acoustic music is on the last Sunday of the month.

Information for this venue is provided by the Swansea Branch of CAMRA
