The Corn Exchange, Crickhowell

A friendly, local’s pub situated at the top of the High Street. The right and room is more geared up for dining and was empty on a recent lunchtime visit. The left hand bar is a basic affair with a blue and white colour scheme, some leaded windows looking out on to the street, some green bench seating around the perimeter and a striped wooden floor. There was a plasma on the wall opposite the bar showing a news programme, and a fruit machine. The rest of the wall space was taken up with mirrors and chalk boards. The menu was a basic pub grub affair offering Scampi, Ploughman’s, Lasagne, etc. Beer prices seemed reasonable at £3.90 for a pint and a half. The solitary beer on tap were Rhymney’s Bevan’s Bitter. Ciders were Strongbow and Kingston Press.
