Identikit Black County Ales Pub. Individually, they are fine. In fact, most of what I am looking for in a pub. When you have just come out of the Swan (another BCA Pub), the lack of variety can get a bit boring. Everything from the cloth covering of the seats to the font that was written on the loo doors to the wifi password was the same in the two environments.
This was a lower score due to the beer not to the same high standard (Hop Back Citra, adequate), low number of customers and landlord/landlady minding their toddler on the bar, complete with loud musical toys.
I'm sure its fine at busier times.

I agree with Delboy, another great BCA pub. The interior was wallpapered and carpeted throughout, along with comfortable upholstered banquette seating. The bar was facing us on the left of the front entrance along with a flat screen beer board. 9 ales, four of which were from BCA, along with five guest ales which were Sharps Twin Coast, Holdens Golden Glow, St Austell Proper Job, Vale Hoptimist and Hopback Hop Jam. There was also two ciders Gwynt Y Ddraig Ancient Warrior and Lilleys Mango. The locals were really friendly on our Saturday afternoon visit and a lot of them were tucking into hot pork cobs.

Another great BCA pub. 8 ales on when I called with the usual 4 BCA beers plus 4 guests. My pint of Mallinsons Columbus was excellent. Friendly service. Cobs, pork pies etc on offer. Well worth a visit.
