The Lescar

My better half suggested we travelled to "The vale" to a quaint place known as the Lescar. My expectations were low, I expected a venomous reception considering the vale has never been renowned to accept unwanted visitors. I couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised, the pub stood back from the main road a beacon of times past. Inside was a nice mixture of modern and classic pub decor. The staff were brilliant, they attended to our every need, the food was fantastic and good value. I only marked four stars for the atmosphere because of the wasps. No one's fault, just they pushed us inside to eat as it was a lovely day. Highly recommended from me, but please don't all take my space for the Sunday roast. I'll be here often.

Friendly staff who assisted my elderly uncle and gave a personal touch to him to make his visit relaxed - quickly realising that he was hard of hearing, they spoke kindly to him and slowly ensuring that he engaged and felt included. Food and drinks both excellent and served with minimal fuss and hassle. Staff seemed very busy but it didn’t impact our needs as the diners and staff were there when we needed them. The ambient music was right for where we were sat and I thought that the choice of food was not overly complicated - with a good mix of traditional favourites and something a little different.

Fantastic. We put on out booking about my daughter having anorexia and for there to me no calories on the menu. They did this and it felt like they had all really thought about how best to help us. We were sat at a lovely quiet corner table and when she was anxious and felt the music was loud the staff happily adjusted it and check it was ok. They waiting for my daughter to use the bathroom before asking us how out meal was which I felt was so empathetic to our situation. It only our 2nd meal out since Jan when she was diagnosed and we can’t thank you enough for the help and understanding you gave us

Only our second visit. Madge says it was a dark early evening in late November 2021 and it was packed at 6.00. Had no idea how big the pub is with good rear beer garden as well as outdoor seating to the front. There is also a rear function room that hosts live entertainment. Great real ale destination. Two on tap today are from London. By the Horns and Signal. Madge had the Signal Pale Ale. Excellent. Very popular food pub as well. Super pub. Well worth finding.
