Best placed to get smashed in Swansea 15:40 - Nov 14 with 2239 viewsTummer_from_Texas

Apologies if it's been discussed here before. I made it to just about everything up and down Wind Street, as well as the Coopers Arms before the Swans/West Brom fixture last season, and some other place near the Liberty after the game.

But you get the feeling in a place like Swansea, some of the best pubs are off the beaten path.

Lovely country pubs in The Gower villages like Bishopston.

Did you do the Mumbles mile?

We walked around Mumbles for a little while on Christmas Day on our way to Rhossili, but didn't go in to any of the local places. I don't think anything was open.

Mumbles mile ?

You obviously have not been down there for years.

It's more like the mumbles 43 yards now.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

The Valley pub in Bishopston is lovely. Spent many a weekend there. Great food & often have live music. Was popular with Guidolin & his staff.

Plough & Harrow in Bishopston was a great pub too, but it's been taken over now & made into a gastro pub. Shame.

And even then the pubs within the 43 yards are completely dead despite the efforts of the landlords who are swimming against the tide trying to keep afloat.

Hopefully the Oyster Wharf development will put some life back into the area but I would not count on it.

As far as I'm aware, yep. Nice little pub on it's day, but 9 times out of 10, it's the Valley for me.

These are where you get decent pint IMHO.
Mumbles Ale House - excellent 'real ales' and cider http://mumblesalehouse.co.uk/
Pilot Inn Mumbles - 'real ale', some of which they brew themselves http://www.thepilotofmumbles.co.uk/
Joiners Arms in Bishopston
Queens Hotel
Further afield and worth travelling to if you are out for a drive in the countryside down Glamorgan coast:
The Plough and Harrow at Monknash http://ploughandharrow.org/drink . Log fire, fantastic beers and cider. Decent menu.
A further note. The 'Tiny Rebel' brewery, from Newport, won best beer in Britain 2015 award and generally their ales are great. You can often get one of Tiny Rebel's brews in the Mumbles Ale House. Tiny Rebel do have dedicated outlets int Cardiff and Newport, although I havent visited either yet http://www.tinyrebel.co.uk/
Furthermore. There is the CAMRA Good Beer Guide, which lists good pubs. Its especially useful if you are in a new location and want to find a good pub. https://shop.camra.org.uk/ . I regulalry drive to London and the English Midlands, and find some very good pubs to stop at in the guide. Kindly Mrs C drives the onward leg from pub to final destination.

Plough and Harrow's good for food mind. Great place for a decent meal out with the better half or family. But not a session pub for sure.

I didn't realise The Valley was a Guido haunt; I'd have stalked him if I'd have known!. I've always gone over the road to the Joiners.

Do you know Val? The landlady of the Valley? She often posts on FB when they have famous people in - Guido was a regular, along with Ambrosini.

Claire Balding has been in there a few times too randomly!

Went there for the first time night before the Man Utd game. Loved it.

Asked the price of piece of art (it's all for sale)...£1250...I left it.

Great food though.

Everyone used to do the Mumbles mile back in the day. But now they just pop to Wind St.

To answer the OP, the Liberty stadium, if you're a Swansea player.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.
