We stayed in the Rose and Crown in Nottage last week, while walking the Wales Coast Path. Nice pub, reasonable price and good food. Just missed the Elvis Festival.
Lovely trip to see your pub vlog remembering all i once walked past+hope 2 again,and i got my dance workout whilst watching.Thank you. Lavina Morticia Kymille.
Me and my mate from Swansea drove up one night in the 80s to see the night life we ended up outside a night club called G Gs i walked in and the doorman stopped my mate because he did not have a shirt on with a collar. So rather than drive back to Swansea we drove around until we got to this council estate with clothes still hanging on the line my mate got out of the car legged it across 2 gardens and pulled a soaking wet shirt off the line he put it on we went back to the club and he got in . This is a true story we just couldnt keep away from the night clubs always on the pull with the girls we were a double act if i couldnt pull them he could to my mate Jeff who now lives in another country i love you to bits mate what a time to be alive
Does it make ame an alcoholic to have visited them all. One question i thought one of the pubs you called it the goldfish bowl i always called it the sandpiper.
@@stevenlatcham2934 Yes I remember now. Thought it a shame it was burnt down. Wales was an eye opener for many people from England. I moved to Wig Fac around 1980 after staying some months in Bridgend coming from an area where pubs had to close at 2.30 pm in the afternoon and 10.30pm at night strict, to where they were open almost all day.
@@stevenlatcham2934 Well, you had already included hotels such as the Marine and the (closed) Pier. Knights Arms would have been worth a mention? OK long since closed and derelict, but one of the town's best known / most notorious haunts. Porthcawl Hotel, OK, also closed and being developed. The Beer Shop on Lias Road, (has a popular bar). The Lorelei Hotel, recently sadly recently closed. Did more trade as a pub than a hotel. Atlantic Hotel, has bar. Fairways Hotel, (temporarily closed), has bar. Seabank Hotel, has bar. Dockside Grill, has bar. Brentwood / Heartbreak Hotel, has bar. Jonny G's bar, Nottage. And I don't see why the United Services Club & RAFA Club wouldn't merit a mention? They now have open public access I believe, and a lot of people go there. Possibly others that I have forgotten to mention? I also grew up in Porthcawl, I think there's probably only 5 places on your video / my list that I haven't drunk in.
@@MagnusMaximusinWales No you are on a diffrent wave length the Video is to do with the existing pubs in the town, The marine is not a hotel any more. Most people have enjoyed this video and no complaints, Maybee I should do a video about the lost pubs and hotels of Porthcawl. Never mind it's not for everyone.
@@stevenlatcham2934 Not a complaint, just my observations. I'm just being pedantic but, as it seems to have slipped by you, I'd reiterate that the Pier is in the video. It was a hotel. It is closed. And Yes, the lost pubs, hotels & perhaps restaurants of Porthcawl would be interesting! Breaksea & Maid of Sker, (both now nursing homes). Esp. Dirty Duck. Victoria Inn. Apollo. Stoneleigh. Westward Ho. Glamorgan Holiday Home. The Rest What was the name of that hotel / bar on Mary Street? Opposite the Brentwood but a bit further away from the sea-front.

As mentioned in the video Closed.
Do they actually serve drink at the Pier Hotel? Or is it derelict?
It has closed. The previous owner ran it into the ground.
Do you remember the nightclub that got burned down near the front ?
Can't remember the name.
Stoneleigh Club of course I remember.

Good effort, but you missed quite a few!
No pubs missing my friend only clubs and hotels. Lived here all my life. If you know the ones I have missed let me know. 👍
