Our Story

We always dreamed of living in a little slice of the welsh countryside. We pour our hearts into The Halfway: making it our home and making it a place where you’d always feel at home too. Find us halfway between Abergavenny and Monmouth.

If you’ve never been through the doors before… you can expect traditional welsh/english pub  meals. Hearty Sunday lunches make their way out from the kitchen throughout the year too. Vegetarian, vegan and meals made without gluten are always available, other dietary requirements can be catered for. Try food and drink from local suppliers and definitely expect a warm welcome. Whether you’re one of our beloved locals or a new face, walkers, caravaners, families and their dogs are all welcome.

We look forward to seeing you at The Halfway, Tal-y-Coed very soon.

Menu favourites

Due to seasonal availability, we change our menus frequently. Below are some meals we serve up from time to time to give you an idea of what you can expect.

Welsh Dragon Pate

This fiery venison Pâté jumps with a spice packed pungency. The rich ochre, teased with red chilli, marries with the rich game liver to give a full, warming experience to remember, served with wholemeal, crusty bread & caramelised onion chutney.

Luxury Winter Burger

Succulent 8oz beef burger layered with local Angiddy soft cheese & crispy bacon in a brioche bun. Topped with a skewer of beer-battered onion rings & pigs in blankets, accompanied by a side of cranberry sauce, homemade chips & salad.

Warm Winter Salad

Warm roast potato & crispy kale salad with roast vegetables, honey & balsamic glaze, local Feddw greek-style cheese & flaked almonds.

Pie of the week

Award-winning local butcher Neil Powell lovingly handcrafts our pies, which have become one of our specialities, created using traditional methods, the finest ingredients, and a unique blend of spices. Served with your choice of homemade chips or creamy mashed potato, peas & of course a large jug of gravy.

12 oz Local Sirloin

Local steak from Beavan family butchers' herd of Limousin suckler cows producing top quality lean meat slaughtered locally. The meat is hung to mature ensuring a tenderness and flavour that is not found elsewhere. Served with vine-ripened tomatoes, beer-battered onion rings, garden peas, your choice of homemade chips or creamy mashed potatoes.

Squash, Brie & Beetroot tart

Roasted squash & brie tart with beetroot chutney, truffle infused oil & vintage cheddar. Served with new potatoes & roasted vegetables.

Sunday Lunch

Meat from local farms and suppliers, seasonal vegetables plus lashings of gravy. Yorkshire puddings are a local favourite and the cauliflower cheese is a homemade speciality. During the summer months we also serve our very popular Ploughman's lunch on Sundays. Tuck in with your friends and family.

Proper burgers

Is there anything better than a real burger (or plant burger) ?

A proper burger, cooked on the open grill and served up with bacon, cheese (vegan cheese available too), salad & chunky chips.

Homemade pies and casseroles

You can often find hearty casseroles and pies on our specials board - and they fly out of the kitchen for our regulars who know they can't be beat.
