Not quite the Cambrian that I knew of old but still a splendid pub. I treated myself to a pork pie to accompany my pint. The town was starting to fill up with Beyoncé fans as there was a concert on later in the day.

I was keen to visit this pub but put off by my sub-standard pint. I was the only customer throughout my Sunday lunchtime visit, although I noticed a few in here when I passed again later in the afternoon.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brains - Black Mountain | 5.00 | | Black, with a creamy head that soon dissipated. Billed as a Black IPA but tasted more to me like a slightly sour Porter, with negligible hop character. Perhaps it was just ‘on the turn’ – either way, it was poor. |
| Isle of Purbeck - Solar Power | 4.30 | Not Tried | |
| Swannay (formerly Highland) - Old Norway | 9.00 | Not Tried | |
| Brains - Café Phoenix | 4.40 | Not Tried | |
| Moor - Stout | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Brains - Main Stage | 4.00 | Not Tried |
