About The Dragon Inn

The Dragon Inn is a long-established coaching inn on Crickhowell's high street, family owned and run as a hotel, restaurant and bar with fifteen en-suite bedrooms above. Like its high street neighbours it trades on a genuinely old building rather than a themed refit, and its bar and restaurant serve traditional Welsh dishes alongside more contemporary pub food through the day.

One of its stronger features is the garden at the rear, considered among the best in Crickhowell, useful for a quiet drink or meal outside in the warmer months away from the high street's passing traffic. Bedrooms are straightforward and comfortable rather than luxurious, in keeping with the inn's role as a reliable, well-located base rather than a destination hotel in its own right.

Free on-site parking is a genuine advantage in a town where high street spaces can be scarce, and the central position means the castle ruin, the river bridge and every shop and cafe in Crickhowell are within easy walking distance.

People say this inn offers delicious food, including hearty Sunday roasts and vegan options, and features clean, comfortable rooms with modern amenities. Guests also highlight the friendly, welcoming staff and the charming beer garden with a pool table.

Some reviews mention the food can be inconsistent.
