We went in with our german shepard and spaniel and had a great rump steak and a few beers....the landlady was brilliant !...our gsd is anxious and she gave them a treat as soon as we arrived and when another group came in with dogs and it get a bit...edgy....she was out and calmed all the dogs in minutes...a really friendly little pub:)

My wife and I enjoyed a stopover at the sun in last night. We arrived around 5.30pm and Carol was on hand to pour us a drink. We then enjoyed a lovely meal and more drinks then slept in our camper in there very quiet car park. In the morning we enjoyed a full English breakfast cooked to perfection. The pub goes back to the 1400s and has a warm friendly atmosphere. We can fully recommend a visit to the sun inn.

A fantastic pub with great food and even better hosts, Carol & Jonathan are what makes this pub so special. We’ve just a had a wonderful Sunday dinner, home made and fresh ingredients along with a cracking pint of Guinness. See you soon, Liv & George

Lovely cosy pub at the half way point of a walk we did from Llangollen to Carrog. We caught the steam train back but there is also a scenic bus option that stops just outside the pub. Lovely woodturner inside for cold days and plenty of outside seating for sunny days in an amazingly beautiful setting. We didn't have time to eat but if the landlady cooks as well as she hosts it'll be fantastic!

We had a lovely 2.5 mile walk along the valley here from where we were staying and it didn't disappoint. Carol was very warm and welcoming chatting to us about the pub and it's history. The beer and food were really good, proper home-cooked pub grub. We'll be back for sure to stop over in the camper. Thank you!

A great pub in an idyllic location. We stayed overnight in our campervan. Lovely beer, great food - we had the steak pie.. delicious. The couple running the place were lovely and very friendly. Dog friendly too.. perfect.

Fantastic little pub. Great beer and food. Lovely, old fashioned atmosphere and they let us sleep in our van in the car park as we'd had a meal. WCs open all night too. Will definitely be back - although hopefully next time Grimsby will beat Wrexham 😅.

What a gem of a place ! If you want rural & to go back in time this place is a real find! The owners Jonathon & Carol have recently took over the premises which had been out of action for many years. Carol made us the most wonderful food, which is pub grub at a reasonable price, all cooked from scratch, we had our toddler with us and she bought us out all the things to keep her happy. Jonathon was a great host & looked after us with a good selection of drinks. The pub itself is 17th Century, very small & cosy, with just 3 tables, every one chats to each other & it’s great talking to the locals about the area.. We stayed overnight in our motorhome as this place is recommended in the camper van bible. If you’re looking for a friendly local pub, where the food is lovingly handmade, and you want a good old chit chat, whilst nestled is the most majestic & stunning surroundings, then this is your place. Jonathan & Carol if you get to read this we want to say thankyou so much for your hospitality as we didn’t get to say goodbye, we’ll be back tho 🌟💕😊

Great to see that this lovely pub is open again. Jonathan and Carol are doing a great job at revitalizing it. The beer is local and a cracking pint. We didn't eat but the food looked and smelled amazing. We'll certainly be back. Well worth a visit. Thank you both

Great pub with lovely owners. Very welcoming and kind, didn't try the food but drinks were well priced and good. Remember to bring cash as backup as Internet for card payments is intermittent. Fantastic views in the valley and well placed with a small car park as well.

Stumbled on this place at the end of a long walk and couldn't resist a pint. Sign on the door reassuring it really was open and a really warm welcome inside. Great pint of local Llangollen Bitter and chat with the landlady. Could have sank many more but unfortunately had to drive home! Will definitely be back

A quirky old drovers' inn in scenic setting. Home cooked food and a warm welcome. Not gastro, not plush but if you're looking for something less touristy than the more obvious stops, it could be up your street. We'll definitely be back!

It's okay for now, next time we visit, we trust, it'll be amazing! Cracking old pub, at the hub of a small community, very experienced ownership, and done brilliantly well to get it up and running. We were the only ones to pop in, glad we did, gave us chance to meet the canine family!! (Lol)

Unfortunately The Sun is still closed. The new owner told us he hopes to be operating in a couple of weeks (towards the end of October 2022) The previous owner/manager never managed to get the establishment open in the year or so that he had it and apparently 'did a runner'! Let's hope the new owners have more luck. When it was open it was a charming little village pub - friendly and welcoming.

Loved meeting the new owner, but be warned that it's not open yet. He said it will be open late October...hope so because it's a lovely country pub and well worth the trip out. See yah soon.

I’ve been lucky-enough to eat food at the very top end, in many corners of the world, and today’s meal has been right there with the highest accolades: top drawer. The food was designed and executed to such a high standard… We all struggled to pick favourites, with courses rated 10/10 by everyone at the table. Personal favourite was the fish course. We’ve all been here before, so it’s great to see the new team superseding the already high standards set by the previous ownership! Thanks!
