Aqualung . left this review about The Romany Rye (JD Wetherspoon)
The Romany Rye is a JDW hotel named after a local bloke's book. His name was George Borrow and he was the damned fool who walked all over Wales instead of catching a bus like any normal person.
Inside it's a roughly square split level room divided into different areas. It was doing a roaring trade with food on my Tuesday early afternoon visit.
There are two sets of five hand pumps which had the JDW Trio Of Doom with the two GK beers doubled, Brecon Six Beacons, Purity UBU, Jenning's Clean Slate, Gadd's No 5 and Great Newsome Frothingham Best. I went for the Six Beacons (£2.15) which was only in reasonable nick.
It's OK as a Spoon but it did seem very food-led.

Large Wetherspoons in town centre with usual facilities. Not one of their more-exciting buildings, and different areas seemed to attract dufferent types of clientele. Was a little disappointed by the range of beers at time of visit, which seemed pretty predictable.
