The Westbourne used to be a quiet, dark, slightly scruffy affair until it had a facelift a few…read moreyears ago. Now it is quite nice, and gets packed out on the weekends. Brynymor Road is in the middle of a very popular area for student accommodation, but the beer in the Westbourne is significantly more expensive than in the 'Brynymor' just up the road, which obviously has an effect on the type of crowd it attracts. Having said that, it is lot more student friendly than it used to be. You will see a lot of students in there at the start and end of term, when they can get their parents to pay for the more expensive beer. They do decent food, and have got on board with some of the newer ideas hitting pubs, wireless internet, coffee and suchlike. There are quite a few flat screens, but local rugby will usually take preference over football. When there's no sport on, they play Sultans of Swing and Build me up Buttercup on loop. I exaggerate, but only slightly.

Found this pub of two rooms thanks to a very well located sign down on the main coast road. I'd…read morehave had no idea otherwise. There was a busier room complete with people, rugby and Welsh flags. This is fine but the smaller room is a much more charming place to spend some time. Attractive part of the pub and relatively tranquil (some noise carries from the livelier room). Just Bass + Worthingtons Cask. I'd never seen Worthingtons Cask before (it is ok). I did once drink 6 pints of their keg version in a night, to win a pair of green Worthingtons boxer shorts!

This self-styled "pub on the pool" is an ideal choice if you like rural pub / restaurants located…read morein picturesque settings. The Farmers Arms is a long established business, situated opposite the Pitcott Pool in St Bride's Major. Although it's a CAMRA recommended pub, with a good selection of real ales, its main business is food, where you can eat either in its sizeable main restaurant or have a bar meal. You'll find nothing trendy or unexpected here. The menu is broad but predictable, and when I visited for Sunday lunch its clientele were predominantly senior citizens. Unusually there is no inclusive menu, but each course was reasonably priced, with generous portions. The desserts were particularly plentiful and at £4.50 on average reasonable value for money. It also has a good fish menu, with sole and coley the highlighted daily special offerings when I visited. The staff were very friendly and efficient, providing brisk service without making you feel hurried or harried. Overall well worth a visit. It would be an ideal place to end up after a long walk on the Southerndown coast or the Merthyr Mawr sand dunes.

Gloopy sauce, tinned mushrooms; not very nice. Tasted like, well, gunk…read more The Farmers Arms has a reputation for being a decent place to enjoy a convivial meal with friends in a reasonably relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Shame then that this experience was let down by a lacklustre initial welcome and the quality of the food served. Though the restaurant service was attentive and the mushroom stoganough was quickly and reasonably presented, it was just unpleasant to eat, which I suppose is the key factor. Chips were cooked nicely, crisp on outside and soft centred, but they were the usual caterers' mass produced ones (presumably bought in big bags) that taste as if they've been reconstituted and not like freshly cut chips from proper spuds. Pudding was priced at town center restaurant prices lemon meringue roulade but looked like it had been thrown at the plate from the other side of the kitchen a real smash up. This is definitely not fine dining. Is this a pub or is it pretending to be a restaurant and doing neither very well? The location of the pub/restaurant is good, on the road out of St Brides towards Wick just by the duck pond. If you like traditional, low beamed rooms decorated with hanging jugs and such like, with dark red carpets and traditional dark wooden tables, then this is the place for you personally find this decor dated and gloomy. Not great.

Awesome bar at the downstairs lobby of the Morgan Hotel. The people are really nice and it's a…read morepleasant place to have a drink before you head out into town. Not a very big beer selection but the brews they have are good and complimented by a wine menu and large liquor selection. Have yet to try the restaurant but it looks great :)

I'd also recommend their light bite menu, which in my opinion is actually serves more appetising food than their main restaurant.

As with most pubs frequented by students in Swansea the drinks are cheap and served by young trendy surfy/skater types. The pub plays host to a variety of live music nights and the introduction of the smoking ban this year fuelled the addition of a covered outdoor area which used to be just picnic benches but is now quite a lovely decked fairy-lit alcove. The Tav' also boasts a bit of history as it is reported to be one of the drinking dens of Wales' most famous poet and alcoholic, Dylan Thomas. This fact is marked by the Dylan Thomas Snug within the pub.

It has a decent size bar with a pool table (which has been about the only addition in the past 20 years) and dart board. The lounge is also quite spacious yet retaining a cosy feel. It's one of those pubs that you see the same faces in year in year out. It has plenty of parking at the rear. Beer is reasonably cheap and any meals I have had there have been nice However the plenty of space out back should be better utlised for outside dining and drinking. Don't think it needs as much parking space as it has.
