Ryan and the whole pub team make this a wonderful retreat. First class hospitality, everyone including the diners / drinkers very friendly and welcoming. We were staying in the cottage next door so this was our local each day! Great little menu and superb home cooking. Without doubt, the best range of local / Welsh beers I experienced in our stay. A fabulous place that draws in a regular crowd. Thank you all again! 'Til next time!!

Visited here for a meal while staying in the local area. Had a really great experience. Excellent cosy country pub atmosphere, made all the better by a very friendly reception from the landlord who recommended some local walks. Good ale and really nicely prepared home cooked food. I had the steak, which was tender and perfectly done. Drink prices very reasonable. Will definitely be returning again during our stay. A real gem well worth visiting if in the area.....oh and dogs welcome is a bonus. Further update to the above, we have now spent a week in Pentre Bach and have visited the Shoemakers on several occasions for food and drink, being the perfect place to refresh from a long walk. Just had the Sunday roast which was excellent both in terms of quantity and quality. Really good home cooking. The atmosphere is a great blend of visitors and friendly locals. So good to see a community pub thriving, much to the credit of the family that run it. Certainly played a big part in making our holiday so relaxing and enjoyable.

Fully recommend, small farmhouse pub in the welsh valley of Brecon Beacons, small car parking outside. Seating area outside. Be aware that on the way you are driving down small country lanes with sharp corner's Very pleasant staff,food excellent service very quick. Local produce sourced, many variety meals on the menu excellent for the price. Drinks and ale's on bar. Would recommend to book as can get busy Sunday lunch available. Beautiful walks and scenery nearby.
