Situated on one mile from the A477 in West
Wales, this is part of the railway station and the brewery tap for Pembroke
Brewery. There is beech flooring and lots of wood and stained glass. Newly
renovated toilets will provide full disabled access to this excellent example of
a local attraction. There is also a bistro and restaurant newly opened in 2001.
As this is a brewery tap, they know how to serve beer here: right clarity,
temperature, taste and price. Staff had knowledge of the products is good and
they serve it well. Beers on at the time were: Pembroke Two Cannons Extra 3.6% @
£1.70; Pembroke Off The Rails 5.1% @ £1.85; Everards Beacon 3.8% @ £1.75;
Pembroke Whitsend 4.0% @ £1.75 and Wychwood Alchemy Gold 4.4% @ £1.80. The
Station regularly hosts a beer festival around June time. Food is also served
here: lamb roast with 8 salads, vegetarian option and a childrens menu -
all good, fresh and innovative. Prices were good too @ adults £4 / childrens £1.50.
One of the best things about the Station is the friendliness of the locals and
the overall atmosphere. Well worth a visit. No accommodation here.

I visited
this pub on the recommendation of friends, and can confirm that the beer
was excellent "Off the Rails" and "Old Nobby" in
particular. Despite living the other side of the country, I visit this pub
2 or 3 times a year and the standard never disappoints. |
