What are "Pubs" ?
-
Public Houses or "pubs" as they are often
referred to in Wales can be a little confusing. Some are merely
drinking establishments.Whereas others may sell sandwiches and light
snacks such as heated pies. Many will provide bar meals such as chicken
in the basket of varying quality and price, whereas others offer quality
of restaurant style food. Yet again some public houses may in
addition offer bed and breakfast style accommodation of varying quality.
Most pubs offering accommodation will also be listed under either the
guest house or hotel sections of this web site. It is also worth noting
that the "character" of a public house will vary considerably.
Some may be old-fashioned and unchanged for centuries whereas other
modernised theme pubs may also have oak beams! Perhaps more important
for the visitor is to realise that the behaviour you are likely to
encounter particularly on a Friday or Saturday evening is likely to vary
from pub to pub. In some establishments even a swear word may be
frowned upon by the landlord and the regulars whereas others lively and
unruly behaviour even the regular weekend punch-up in the street outside
may be a custom associated with that establishment. All one can advise a
visitor to do is to look carefully and judge for yourself. If an
establishment is not one in which you feel comfortable then quietly
finish you drink and leave. Having said that most visitors will find
that most pubs are friendly comfortable places in which to eat and
drink. It is a peculiarly British establishment and not to be missed.
