Friendly Astmosphere. Fine Food. Soft Beds
Welcome to The Cambrian
You’ll always be assured of a warm Valleys welcome here at The Cambrian.
A sympathetically restored historic inn in the centre of Tredegar, it continues to be at the heart of the community, serving beer and good cheer as it has done for almost 300 years.
Built probably in 1809, shortly after Tredegar was created, the Cambrian Hotel helped quench local thirsts even during working hours when young boys hurried jugs of beer and cider to sweating furnace men. Accounts would be settled on paydays, occasions when free, but salty, soup was often provided to increase what was already ‘on the slate’.
For over two centuries ‘The Cam’ has hosted and witnessed events of every kind. Chartist meetings were held in its upper room, addressed by such notaries as Dr. William Price of Llantrissant who had publicly cremated his son’s body. Even though a strong Chartist supporter, his arguments against the 1839 attack on Newport would be proved when Tredegar’s contingent straggled back defeated past these walls.
Self-help benevolent societies were based here, and Temperance preached in The Circle outside. The Cambrian served local society while cholera struck, riots flared, election results were announced and during recruitment for battlefields from Waterloo to The Somme. Some who knew this place fought and died in distant campaigns, whilst others lost theirs lives at furnace or pit. This building has witnessed periods of great prosperity, industrial strife, hunger and economic decline.
Old coins discovered walled-up during 2013’s renovation, intended to bestow good luck, mark the Cambrian’s two hundred years of social involvement, welcome and hospitality.

What Our Customers Think…
Sport
We have lots of large TV screens so you can enjoy pretty much any sporting event under the sun. And being one of the few pubs in the local area to have both Sky and BT Sport packages, come down and have a pint to make sure you aren’t missing out on the action. One piece of advice – make sure you arrive in plenty of time during 6 Nations season to make sure you get a seat.
Live Artists
We book the finest live artists playing the circuit. Come to The Cambrian and be royally entertained every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 9pm. If you’re feeling up to it why not hit the dance floor, or for the less rhythmically inclined just have a singsong.
