The Felin Fach Griffin has reclaimed its Dining Pub of the Year for Wales crown in the 35th anniversary edition of the 2017 Good Pub Guide.
The Griffin took the award for the sixth time in seven years, after being dethroned in the 2016 Guide.
The Griffin, hosted by Julie Bell, is a seven-bedroom inn, owned since 2000 by brothers Charles and Edmund Inkin through their company EATDRINKSLEEP.
Its restaurant and bar are a base for the community, supporting local producers, brewers and growers, as well as having its own kitchen garden. It follows the brothers’ belief in “the simple things done well”, a philosophy which was developed during their dairy farming childhood in neighbouring Monmouthshire.
The 2016 Good Pub Guide said of The Felin Fach Griffin: “Highly thought of dining pub with home-grown vegetables among its carefully sourced ingredients, a fine range of drinks and upbeat rustic décor... this well run dining pub is a civilized place for a first class meal – or even better, a relaxing break.”
