£4.30 for a 14 min bus here from Ebbw Vale, no wonder the locals are so broke - at least Dick Turpin made the effort to dress-up. Anyways this is a basic Timbo Tavern. Cavernous and bland interior, the only item of vague interest is the bar back, which looks like the foyer of an early 80s office block. Gee-gees on the big screen for the amusement of a few old soaks. Swerved the guest ales and slipstreamed an old boy on the Abbot (NBSS 3.5). Mildly depressing Spoons, unfortunately. 5.5

This is a cinema conversion that consists of a large high ceilinged room with a patio at the rear. The bar is on the left hand side and to the right there is a TV projector screen. On my late Thursday morning visit it was fairly quiet.
Although the bar has two sets of five hand pumps with several clipped I was a bit dismayed to be told that only Spitfire and Rhymney Hobby Horse were on. I went for the Hobby Horse and was cheered up no end when I was charged just £1.65 for it which is the standard guest ale price! The food prices here looked about average.
It's not a bad place and several of the clipped hand pumps had Rhymney Brewery beers on them.
