Completely refurbished then re-opened in November 2023, the H&H is a low ceiling split-level pub in the conservation area of the city, not far from the cathedral. The entrance area is a snug and the area left and right-angled to the bar offers a variety of seating. The area at the rear is where TV sport can be watched. There is a pleasant garden with children's play area and decking. Three cask ales are usually available and the Welsh licensees do a fine job of showcasing beer from their home nation. There is 25% off the price of a cask ale pint on Mondays.
