Just a short stroll up the hill from Pontnewydd's shops is this locals' pub sited near the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal. Known locally at the 'Top Bridge' (as opposed to the now closed 'Bottom Bridge', the New Bridgend further down the canal), it has a traditional layout of public bar and lounge with the latter extending into a dining area which still has a
hanging sign as you enter saying "No smoking beyond this point". The guest ale is changed regularly and sourced from well know national breweries. Pension Day on Wednesday.
This Pub serves 1 changing beer and 1 regular beer.
Old Bridgend Inn, Cwmbran
