Y Mochyn Du

"Y Mochyn Du (the Black Pig) is a very Welsh pub/restaurant, located a stone's throw from the Sophia Gardens Sports Centre. It has great character, with wood panelling on stone walls and little alcoves.
The restaurant serves a good range of food, with specials and Sunday roasts.
It attracts a real mix of characters, from rugby and football players to BBC and S4C workers. They sponsor Robert Croft, captain of Glamorgan Cricket Team.
Live entertainment includes Welsh folk music, Welsh quizzes, and even opera. They support 3 Welsh choirs."

This is from Cardiff Pubs. I am from Cardiff, but have never been to this pub, even though it is (just) within walking distance of my family home there. It featured in the Independent's 25 Best Pubs list, chosen by Roger Protz. Oddly enough he also chose The Lower Red Lion in the 25. This is within striking distance of me, although not on foot.

I will try to make a note here after I've visited them, which I plan to do soon!
