Blue Scrumpy left this review about The Vaga Tavern

Backstreet community pub a fair way out of Hereford city centre run by Wye Valley. As you enter, there is a lounge to the left and a public bar to the right. Beyond the bar is a skittles alley and a rear garden.

The bar has a tiled floor, a pool table, dartboard, jukebox, games machine and a TV. The bar has 4 handpulls but just HPA & Butty Bach were on. Ciders are Thatcher's Haze, Stowford Press & Carling Black Fruits.

The barmaid and young customers all seemed friendly enough but I wouldn't say it's worth your while venturing out of the centre for.

Estate pub with a traditional pub feel its presumably a community pub serving locals. There was a double buggy just left in the lounge which felt a bit odd as it was where you walk in. The Wye Valley beer was good but its not the sort of place you'd go out of your way for and I expect best left as a locals pub

A fair walk along the canal to this GBG listed Wye Valley pub. It’s a deceptively large two room local via a porch with a skittles alley to the rear. The right-side room is public/sports bar with pool, darts, quarry floor, sports TV and bar blockers. Left side is a much more agreeable lounge with pub carpet, red fabric banquettes, sofas and a wood fire. GBG listed and there was a plethora of pumps but just Wye Valley Butty Bach and their lesser-spotted Bitter (NBSS 3) were available which I suppose is about right. Whilst I’m glad that the brewery have stepped-in to keep this one going it’s ultimately only one for the seasoned ticker; there’s no compelling need to leave the city centre otherwise. 6.5
