The pool table area is nice, several tables and fairly spacious. The restaurant area was kinda meh. The food was terrible. Seriously. Me and my partner paid best part of £20 (not including drinks) for a vegetable lasagne and steak and ale pie. The vegetable lasagne was blatently nuked to perfection, and the steak pie was more like minced beef in gravy with a lid on the top. If you want to know what a real vegetarian lasagne or steak and ale pie are like, visit The Friars Vaults and Jolly Boatman respectively. And incidentily, I ordered garlic bread, not garlic bricks. So dry and overdone, I could have chained them together and made myself a lovely yet lethal pair of nunchucks. The staff in the restaurant at least were efficient, and the girl in particular who served us was very nice, but the others were congregating and gossiping which was a tad off-putting. Shame about the food, as due to its location, its food is going to naturally be one of its stronger selling points. However, I'll give it two stars instead of one for the reason that you employ the wonderfully quirky and friendly Christopher Williams. Hell of a lad, he is.

Given that the garden is situated right next to the road it's not exactly relaxing though. What's more impressive about the Glen is the food. The restaurant is situated in a conservatory which has been added as an extension, and feels a lot more upmarket than the rest of the pub. They do an amazing Sunday lunch, and it is always busy so you would definitely be advised to book. The rest of the menu is delicious too, and I have never had a bad meal here. The service can sometime be a bit slow, particularly when they are busy, but the staff always remain pleasant and polite, and are usually apologetic if you have to wait.

Originally, it was listed as a 'a lock up house with a room over it in which a magistrates court and parochial meetings were held'. In 1858 it was falling into very bad repair so the court and magistrates relocated to a new building. The Town Hall then became a 'Mechanics Institute' which included a library. In 1881 a clock tower was built and in 1912 another floor was added. Easy to find as it's up a very unusual double stairway (unfortunately I didn't capture that in my photo) and can be seen from many parts of the town.

There are a quite a few local bands which are very popular, and this is the place to come and watch them. Christmas time is tgood as special acoustic night etc are organised. Battles of the bands and such like. There is also occasionally big name bands playing here, pendulum played recently! The prices are great, and always very reasonalbe. There is a good bar, and lots of seating around the edge and at the back of the main floor area. They ahve a very good policy and underaged people have a wrist band on, so they dont get served alcohol. There is also a cafe that is open during the day. And an art gallery upstairs, which showcases local artisst exhibitions aswel as visiting artists. All in all this is a fantic community hall type place, and there should be more of them!

We got to STAY in the castle, which was awesome, and also meant our breakfasts were included. The…read morecastle is located in a great spot, within walking distance of a park, several cute little shops, and a grocery store. We were in the top room of the castle, which came with two comfy beds (which we pushed together), and its own bathroom. It was a big spacious room, but we really only just slept there. The breakfast was a big, full, delicious breakfast. I went with the Castle Breakfast each morning. It came with bacon (theirs was kinda between ham and bacon for us in the US), a big sausage, a half a tomato, a big, buttery fungus ("field mushroom"), an egg, and a cup of beans. Oh, and a Lavercake. Can't forget the Lavercake. This is a Welsh thing. It's kind of a little ball of dense grains. Almost like a bran muffin, I guess. I like trying new things when I travel, and while the Lavercake wasn't my favorite, I ate them every day, cause you can't get them in the US (not that I've ever seen, anyway). The meats, egg, and fungus were all delicious. And seriously, that tomato was excellent. I definitely didn't expect to enjoy a TOMATO with my breakfast as much as I enjoyed this one, but no joke, it was really good. My wife isn't big on the breakfast meats, so she opted for the Castle Veggie Breakfast. She liked it a lot. One of the days, we tried the French Toast, and that was really good too. The breakfasts also came with access to a variety of croissants, juices, honey and jellys. Oh, and the view out the restaurant window was gorgeous. We watched the sunrise on the other side of the river. For guests staying at the castle, there's a gated parking area in the back. There's also a pretty park area you can walk around, and lots of other interesting places to explore. Unfortunately, the museum part of the castle itself was closed when we stayed there, but we still had a great time and would absolutely recommend a Cardigan Castle. The food was excellent, the staff and service were extremely friendly and helpful. We absolutely loved everything about the Cardigan Castle, and would absolutely recommend visiting if you are ever fortunate enough to be in Cardigan.

Cardigan Castle sits in an impressive position, guarding the ancient bridge over the River Teifi,…read moreand encompasses 900 years of history, but has only been open to the public since its restoration, completed in 2015. Initially built in wood by the invading Normans (replacing one a mile away built in 1093), it was captured and burned in 1166 by Rhys ap Gruffydd, who rebuilt it in stone - supposedly the first stone castle built by a Welshman. To celebrate its completion, he held what is supposed to be the first national festival of poetry and song in Wales - now regarded as the first Eisteddfod. Regained by the English King John in 1197, it fell into Welsh hands again in 1215, and after changing hands several more times, it was finally gained permanently by Earl Gilbert of Pembroke in 1244. He rebuilt the castle and added town walls, and it is these remains which form the basis of the castle today. The castle played a part in the Civil War in the 17th Century, after which its defences were permanently slighted by the victorious Parliamentarians. The townspeople subsequently removed much of the walls as building material for their own homes. The Castle itself then settled down to a quieter life as a domestic residence, and a Regency house was built on the site in the early 19th century. This survives today as Castle Green House. The castle was also fortified during the second world war with a pill box. After the war, the Castle remained a domestic dwelling, but gradually fell into disrepair. After its last owner departed, a local campaign resulted in its full restoration in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Today, it is possible to see elements from all of the earlier periods, including cannon damage from the Civil War, although the only tangible remains of the early mediaeval castle is a tower at the back of Castle Green house. So, essentially, the castle now forms a walled park with museum and restaurant, in the middle of the town. Entrance is £7 for adults, but the ticket can be used to access the grounds or year. There is a play area for children, and a lovely Kitchen Garden. The main lawn in front of Castle Green house is used for public events, concerts etc. There is also a restaurant, which is open for breakfasts and lunches - see separate entry under Cegin 1176. Accommodation is also available for those who wish to stay here. There is a shop selling souvenirs and Welsh woollen blankets, and beneath the restaurant a delicatessen. There is no dedicated car park, so anyone arriving by car will need to park elsewhere in the town.

The balcony area overlooking the room is quite nice as it allows guests to break away from the hurly-burly and sit and chat or simply watch the goings-on below. I've also attended a few exhibitions in the same room. The balcony area allows you to view from above too which I think is a nice touch. The Dylan Thomas museum downstairs is worth a look - it's not a huge exhibition but quite fascinating (worth reading are the letters from one of Dylan's friends to another describing the poet's final days). The gift shop is tiny but worth a peek. Items for sale are a little classier (and more expensive) than your average museum shop. The corridor leading from the foyer regularly houses small exhibitions of paintings or photographs. The coffee/book shop is certainly my favourite part of the centre. One half houses a large selection of second-hand books - a real treasure trove and a must if you have an hour or two to spare. The coffee shop area offers a tempting selection of teas and coffees, home made cakes and light lunches. I sometimes attend work meetings here and it's a real treat to have some lunch here before going back to work.
