The Blinkin’ Owl pub in Coed Eva has reopened after a refurbishment. I popped there last night and was really impressed. The nearby Fairwater House has closed so I’m sure this place is benefiting from locals in search of a new home.
The pub was packed with a friendly atmosphere. It was karaoke night so I recorded a quick Audioboo of one of the singers. Click play on the Audiobook link below to hear her sing Someone Like You by Adele.
If you can’t see the Audioboo link below click here and go the original link.
