Griffin, Swansea

Originally a Midland Bank, it is now a large city centre pub that serves some real ales. Situated at one end of Swansea's main Bar & Nightlife quarter, it focuses heavily on sporting events and can get extremely busy attracting large weekend crowds of all ages, but usually younger. The interior still has many lovely original features from its banking days, with ornate plaster work on the raised ceiling and wooden clad panelling. But they are often hidden by the many giant TV screens.

Although there are five handpumps on the bar, it usually only has the two regular real ales available, with one or two others sometimes being added for very busy periods.
