Large pub with a clear community focus as it seems to appeal to all ages, particularly when its "family time" during the afternoon. The public bar, which has clues that it might have been two rooms back in the day, is spacious and has a stage for live music and plenty of TV screens to watch sport. Another clue to its past is a pictorial diagram on a wall near the bar outlining plans by Webb & Sons (of Aberbeeg) for the then Newbridge Hotel. A separate sports bar has a pool table and loads of sporting memorabilia displayed on the walls, again with TVs to deliver sport. There is an outdoor drinking area at the front and a rear garden with a children's play area. Access to the car park is at the rear off the main road. Quite a handy watering hole if refreshment is required when visiting Newbridge RFC at their Welfare Ground.
