Charming small pub in a quiet Welsh village. Although there are not a lot of tables the staff and locals are very welcoming. Came here several nights on our stay and always enjoyed the place. Food was pretty good too and if back in the area would definitely make a point of coming here again.
Traditional pub with great food and service. They have a number of vegetarian options and portions are generous. Decent drinks prices. There's a pool table and a beer garden.
Didn't stay here, but rented a cottage locally so popped in the Fairy Glen more than once for drinks and food during the week we were there. It's a nice pub with a decent beer selection and good food. The service is efficient and cheerful and they are dog friendly. I had (not in the same visit) the beefburger, the lamb moussaka and the chicken breast in garlic sauce and they are all good and tasted home cooked.
Great atmosphere in the late summer sunshine. Had a beer and some crispy chips after an hour of orienteering in the hills.
Great location with the views of the sea far away and the mountains. Very clean and tidy. If you like the quiet it perfect place. Food absolutely amazing. Big portions but great for me and my partner filled us up. Reasonable price for the amount you get. Will be coming again .
Realy nice pub. Had a lovely pint sat in the beer garden admiring a 1941 vintage Russian motorcycle parked next door. Had a lovely pint of San Miguel that was very lively and had a great head.
