Visited 28/11/25

No cask. Keg offering of Guinness, Coors, Caffrey's, original SB, Worthington CF, Madri, Carling and Carling black fruits cider, Staro, Thatchers Gold.

Large but non-descript pub on the main shopping street in Barry Town. Long rectangle from the front with the bar counter along the right-hand wall with a stone tiled skirt. Front part generally herringbone block wooden flooring and becomes carpeted towards the rear. Mixture of tall and regular tables with some booth tables to the rear in an area with some pool tables plus a long leather banquette along the rear wall. Suggestion of a stage area over towards the rear of the front part of the venue but unclear if that is a carry forward from a previous incarnation. Not a leading light for me.
