Along the promenade in Aberystwyth, north towards Constitution Hill, is a great bar/hotel called the Glengower. It's been a staple of our trips to Wales ever since we started coming here as a family in the early 80's. The owner's have changed over the years, as has everything else about the bar except for the numerous picnic tables looking out onto the Irish Sea. There really is no better place to sit on the prom, the Glengower being the only bar in the vicinity and always full of families, stragglers, students and the like. They also have a pretty nice menu. One afternoon I stopped in for a cheese and pickle sandwich, one of the best sandwiches I've ever had; simple, fresh and served on crumbly wholewheat granery bread. A welcome alternative to all the heavy fat and fried food to be found throughout the town.
