About
The pub on the seafront at the Knab Rock end of Mumbles Road, built in 1849, next to the coast path, and home to the Pilot Brewery on site. CAMRA's Swansea branch lists seven ales always on, usually including up to three of the pub's own beers, plus bottled ciders, and names it Swansea CAMRA Pub of the Year 2026 as well as a former Welsh Pub of the Year. CAMRA's listing mentions no food, so treat it as a pub for beer and ring ahead if you want to eat. The pub has no working website of its own, so ring ahead if timing matters.
