    Stumbled into the Elysium Gallery in search for a quick coffee, but discovered much more. This ever changing venue is a mixture of a historically old tavern, modern hipster dive and art gallery. We ordered a coffee; two oat milk flat whites, they weren’t the best. But I’ve decided that this isn’t the place for coffee. Their local beer and cocktail selection were good enough to inspire us to return at a later date. The owner encouraged us to take a look at the art gallery currently on display in the rear of the venue. The art pieces available were a mixture of delightfully absurd statues as well as more delicate pieces: a fantastic mix. I highly recommend anyone visiting this venue grabs a beer and drinks it in between the intricately detailed wooden archways of the “Tafarn Y Buwch Goch” (The Red Cow Tavarn). An ancient newly discovered Welsh pub where you can drink on the same spot as many Welsh historical artists and poets. Perfect for an arty pint of beer with friends, not so much for coffee.

    Can't rate this place highly enough! We use it for our regular poetry events and it is just a wonderful space with great people and a great vibe! Also recommend visiting their exhibitions which are frequently updated and always inspiring. A great place where grassroots creativity is nurtured and celebrated.

    Dropped off a couple of artwork here from Manchester. Parking was a pain but one of the members of staff helped me unload all items into the venue. Clean and tidy place.
