Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about McCann's
A self-proclaimed 'Rock & Ale Bar', and a broadly accurate description. On a blazingly hot Saturday afternoon, most of the punters were sat out on the pavement tables getting scorched, but I took refuge in the narrow, elongated but much cooler bar (with a compact stage at the back). The music certainly wasn't at background level, but you wouldn't expect that here anyway (so as it fully met my requirements, then I'm not complaining!). I found a couple of Wye Valley beers on the handpumps - HPA (£4.00) and Butty Bach - and noted mostly standard offerings on the keg taps.

Quinno _ left this review about McCann's
Rock bar with a stage at one end. Red and grey interior with laminate floor. Of note are the stairs down to the bogs, each one inscribed with the name and passing date of a famous rock star. A couple of cask on, I chose wrong with a spluttery end of barrel effort via Salopian (should have gone for a Duck Fart, one of the charmingly named shots that were advertised). Intense chat about M*A*S*H* and Blackadder at the bar - Sunday in Newport is like being transported back 30 years. I slowly warmed to this place, shame I got unlucky with the beer. I might be tempted to pop in again. 6.5
