If you ever go to Brecon, you MUST have the savoury pies served here. Simply out of this world. My partner's comment "It's almost worth moving to Wales just for this! Even the gravy is good, which is hardly ever true." We both had the steak and ale pie. Exquisitely seasoned and an excellent balance between crust and generous filling. Great selection of Welsh beers and cider - even gluten free. 😋 Dog- friendly too!

Hey All! Please be advised, that me and my friend came down to Wales for a hiking trip and were looking for a place to eat good food and drink nice beer. We went to Brecon Tap the service and food were truly amazing! Would recommend to anyone! đŸ€©đŸ˜

Long thin bar with lots of bottled craft beer and 4 hand pulls. We went on a Tuesday night which may be why only 2 beers were on, both were fine and reasonably priced. Music seemed to be coming from a small speaker behind the bar and was only audible to the one staff member and the locals at the bar, so the atmosphere where we were sitting was quite lacking

First class place - service was impeccable, an interesting range of beers but all other bar options available. The pies are the speciality so I went for steak and ale which came with two sides. Utterly delicious and absolutely huge. But quality was not at all compromised over quantity. Highly recommend it. Best food in Brecon in my view :-)

We ended up here after a long walk along the canal, we just kind a picked st random finding somewhere that was dog đŸ¶ friendly. Freindly welcome and quickly ordered our food. We both went for pies as that seemed to be there specialty. Both pies were amazing the veggie pumpkin one and venison + damson. Both had root veg and chips and all components were amazing đŸ€€. Sometimes sides seem like a after thought but these were all really good and j found myself struggling to decide what part to eat more of as I got full. 😂

We found this a very odd place, with cold, odd Staff.

Odd place, odd Staff and very odd Customers too! Needs some jive in the place!

Great atmosphere and very friendly staff. I had a couple of sips of a cask beer which really wasn't good, not sure if I'd just had the dregs from the bottom of the barrel, however the lady serving didn't even question when I asked to change it for something else and was more than happy to oblige. Staff serving really sold their beers and made recommendations. Didn't get opportunity to stay for food though it has been recommended previously, so would love to return to try!

Super chique, comfy and cosy location. We arrived for an early dinner midweek. We didn't make a reservation, but ended up queuing for a little over 10 minutes. Order and pay at the bar, and enjoy your meal and drink. Food was decent and filling, good value for money. We had cocktails which were pleasantly surprising. This is central Brecon, so even if you don't get parked opposite, it's probably no more than 6 minutes walk.

We went here for dinner. Not sure if there were kitchen issues but they ran out of a lot of dishes which were not available when we arrived. They also closed their kitchen early. I got the wrong burger unfortunately, it tasted fine but maybe a bit too deep-fried for my liking. Dessert was good. Overall it was ok.

My partner and kids had very much the same experience with eggs benedict, egg on toast and banana and chocolate pancakes! Well worth the visit, (the beer was from a previous visit, but I'll recommend it for beers too)

On the positive side, one can order the pulled pork without fearing the salty assault that other versions of this plate pose to the palate... On the less positive: tasteless pork/polestyrine, served on a soggy Yorkshire pudding accompanied by (literally) two chunky chips and a micro-garnish of frozen veggies cooked to soggy brown perfection, all drowned in thick soluble gravy. A must for adventurous hearts sure but not for those looking for a dinner. All this said , there is a fair selection of beers, nice staff and good atmosphere. Perfect for a drink.
