The Wharf

Sadly there were no castles or museums to explore this weekend, as Ben had to work both Saturday and Sunday, however we did find some time on Sunday to explore the restaurant literally steps from our place, The Wharf.

As Sunday was another beautiful day, we thought it a perfect day to finally visit the cool, new restaurant/pub right behind our flat, you can just spot it on the far left hand corner, look for the boat right ahead of the white building:


The boat is just for show, as it's no longer used, but gives a neat historical touch!



Here's a shot right below our balcony, to give an idea of how close The Wharf is to our place:


We actually picked a horrible day to finally eat at The Wharf as there had been a huge marathon run that day and the restaurant was PACKED with runners, having a beer after the race.  However we did manage to find a table outside in the sunshine, right by the anchored boat:


Now by this point I was starving and ready to destroy a lamb and rosemary burger and tall brewski, so Ben went inside to order only to find three people working in the entire restaurant and fully packed to capacity with customers!  We were told it would be 40-60 minutes before food would arrive, so we decided to head to the bay and brave the crowds there with a more equipped restaurant :)

So, we went to Mimosa and no, we did not have champagne, we had our favorite, BEER!



Here I am sporting a Brains Beer mustache, Brains is a local Welsh brewer and oh so yummy!


What a nice way to end the day!
