The Bridge, Conwy

This is now owned by the N Wales "Gang of Four" brewers who also have the nearby Albion and Australia down in Porthmadog. It's nothing like the Albion being a single room doing food and accommodation. It's a wide rectangular room with the bar in the middle and areas to each side of the bar. It was quite busy on a Saturday night but quieter on the Sunday afternoon. The food is hearty pub grub at reasonable prices and more than adequate. However, I did overhear that the food was going to be contracted out to a Pizza company which seems a shame. There are six hand pumps which had Nant Chwarden Aur, Fuzzy Duck Mucky Duck & Ruby Duck, Purple Moose Chocolate Moose, Conwy Rampart and Great Orme Welsh Gold which went off on the Sunday. They have the same pricing as the Albion (£3.30 to £3.45). I tried the Chwarden Aur, Mucky Duck and Ruby Duck all of which were in excellent condition. The Albion is still the best pub in town but this one comes second. It's GBG 2018 listed.

Much refurbished pub near the famous road and railway bridges. The interior is on two slightly different levels, and has semi-modern furniture and light decor throughout. Food now served and B&B accommodation planed. Six handpumps on the counter, offering a decent choice of local beers - Conwy Beachcomber Blonde, Dark Side of the Moose (Purple Moose), Great Orme Welsh Black, Nant Mwnci Nel and a cider. Noted as having received a Camra branch award as the most improved pub of 2015; and it is certainly worth a stop now.
