Might well be spending a day up there soon.
Can the discerning amongst you recommend places to visit, eat, drink and park? |  | | |  |

I live in Brecon, so will chip in here.
Food and drink.
Hills.
Ok, if you like a burger.. but great for the views.
The George.
A decent Wetherspoons just off town centre.
The Castle.
Bar meals and restaurant are tidy enough but a bit overpriced. THE best spot to enjoy a drink in Brecon on a nice day.
Brecon Tap.
Local ales. Serves a menu of homemade pies.
The Clarence.
A locals pub that does cracking pub food. En route from the centre to the Regimental Museum.
The Wellington.
As BuilthJack says...avoid.
If you want Footy on TV, it's The Siddons or The Rorkes. Neither do food but are full of 'friendly' locals..
Walking.
From town centre, good river walks in either direction from the Usk river bridge.
Walk or cycle along the canal to Tal y bont. (Good real ale pub at The Star Inn, Tal y bont)
Hike the quieter route from the town centre to the summit of Pen y fan, down to Storey Arms.. and get the bus back to town.
Museums.
The Regimental museum is a must. It is due to relocate from the barracks to the town centre during 2020.
Y Gaer, replaces the old museum and is a museum, library and cultural hub which is due to open in early December. There have been huge concerns locally regarding the massive overbudget spending on this project. I believe there is also an on site café. Y Gaer is located in the street behind the Wellington.
I'm not sure where God's country is... but it certainly isn't 20 miles north of Brecon!  |
The George is very decent for food, probably the cleanest spoons I've been in 👠|  |
