Gill Smith left this review about The Open Hearth
Enjoyed our visit to this pub that features in the 2019 Good Beer Guide while visiting pubs in Gwent. Being on the canalside, it is popular with walkers, cyclists and barges. There is a bar, snug and lounge, and a garden poular with families. The beer on offer was Brains Bread of Heaven, Wye Valley HPA, Greene King IPA and Abbot, Marston's Wainwright. We chose the Bread of Heaven which was fine.
