The Greyhound Inn, Swansea

This is a detached pub, eatery and home to the Gower microbrewery, which has a beer garden and a kid's play area. The building is 19th century and the original winged-corridor design is still clearly visable despite modern extensions and stone built covered areas to the side and front. The building is cream render with coffee quoins and gable timbers. The interior has a couple of function rooms and restaurant areas to the left and right, when entering from the car park. These are in white and wood, with brick fires. It is mainly a food place, but at the back there is a smallish bar room. This is also in white and wood, with a coffee wood ceiling and flag floor. A hearth feature part bisects the room. Brasses, bottles, mirrors, dog pictures and guns are scattered about for interest. The service was fine and the clientele seemed to be mainly diners - even in the small bar area. The TV wasn't on and there was no music. Beer; usual tap stuff with a selection of their own beers on handpull, along with London Pride. The Gower beers were; Gold, Best Bitter, Sampson's Jack and Rumour. I had the Jack and Rumour - I don't think they are much to my taste and seemed a little lifeless to me. A place for the food, but also to try the Gower beers at point of origin - worth a look.
