The slightly better of two pubs in the village of Penrhynside, this one features in the 2023 Good Beer Guide. Quiet when we walked in early on a Saturday evening, it soon started to fill up. The barman/landlord seemed to be a friendly enough chap.
Banks's Amber Ale is the regular beer. Guests were Nottingham Bullion, Three Peaks Whernside Pale Ale, Milestone Missy Sippy & Wild Horse Elements 06: Pale Ale Version 2. Ciders from Gwynt y Ddraig were Happy Daze, Black Dragon & Dog Dancer. Strangely, there was no advertising of the ciders. I was expecting some, but had to ask to find out what they had. I certainly couldn't locate the board mentioned on the previous review.
There is an open-plan bar area inside, with an impressive garden over several different levels at the rear. Dogs and families are welcome. A waitress was poised ready to take some food orders. But we didn't see anybody ordering. Live music was also being promoted for that evening.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Penrhyn Arms
Traditional no-frills village pub with a 'L'-shaped bar area and a pool room off to one side. Decor dominated by a host of local and regional Camra cider pub of the year award certificates and a fine collection of pump clips. Has a beer garden with views up some steps onto the sloping ground to the rear. Formerly a Marston's house, and Banks's Bitter is still available from a row of six handpumps, with the others offering Yeovil Glory (£3.00), Adnams Mosaic, Ludlow Black Knight, Castlegate Merlin's Own and a draught cider. Numerous other ciders were listed on a board too, presumably in boxed or bottled form.

Cracking pub in ridiculously inconvenient location, but worth the struggle. Excellent range of beers and welcoming atmosphere.
