Fagins Craft Beer House & Art Cafe, Cardiff

Now known as Fagins Craft Beer House & Art Cafe, this place looks very much like a traditional pub from the outside, but with its single square-shaped room, it actually feels like a micropub inside. My visit on a Wednesday afternoon found the pub lacking atmosphere. Just 2 people were in when I arrived. 1 on a laptop turned out to be the gaffer, whilst another guy was sat reading a book. Music was playing which helped to liven things up slightly, but it's often difficult to judge a pub when there are so few in. 2 real ales are sold here. For my visit, these were Thornbridge Jaipur & Saltaire Blonde. A third handpull was clipped with Gwynt y Ddraig Farmhouse Scrumpy. Craft beers were Brewdog Punk IPA & Black Heart & Crafty Devil Mikey Rayer All Dayer.
