    Bad Points: I can.t say that there were any bad points.


    General comments: Lovely atmospheric rooms, good helpful staff who knew their jobs. Really good food, and our dog was welcomed too. She had a bowl of chicken, as part of their service. So thumbs up from us.

    I have recommended the Bear to many people. It's really nice after walking to relax in a welcoming bar area complete with log fire. Judging by the amount of people there, it is obviously very popular.

    Not sure I'm going to the same place as other reviewers. I've found the food very good, especially the puddings, but I'm looking for interest/quality not pub volume. Service has generally been pretty good. And a nice pint of Rhymney.

    To me, The Bear in Crickhowell seems to have gone downhill. Thought the starters were poor. But thought the mains were worse.Also found it expensive. I suggest you go somewhere else.Went there 30th July 2008.

    Nice place to sit, with slightly poncified pub food. Edible, but expensive for what you get

    Five of us had lunch in the bar. Halfway through our meal the waitress removed our (and others) little vase of flowers - "We are re-doing them". Odd?

    However when we were having our deserts the waitress asked for our table mats! "We haven't finished our meals" - "I only want the mats!" It was just after 2.00pm. Must have been anxious to get ready to go home!

    Given that our bill was just over £110 I thought I would write to the proprietor, to complain. I should have saved a stamp and ...

    I only ate in the bar, but it was very poor. When I asked if I could reserve a table I was told "just go and sit at one". I would have walked out but this place came recommended and it was raining hard. I took a look at the food being served around me and opted for the cheapest thing on the menu just to eat and get away quick - ham (think it was processed), boiled potatoes, peas (think it was tinned, processed) covered with a 'parsley' sauce from a packet (think it was). I ate some of it while l ...

    Crickhowell, Pan European, The Bear - Took friend to a supposedly great restaurant but was appalled by the service, quality and prices. It costs less to eat some of the most delicious food in a far more exciting venue, New York. Dreadful attitude when pulled up about the tepid, tough, so-called steak with tinned mushrooms and a few Walkers crisps on the side. Don't bother if you want to impress.
