A Caerphilly town pub has won acclaim for the quality of its real ale and toilets.

The Malcolm Uphill on Cardiff Road, Caerphilly has been awarded a platinum star rating in the 2017 Loo of the Year Awards, and was also listed in the Campaign for Real Ale’s (CAMRA) Good Beer Guide 2018.

Loo of the Year Awards inspectors make unannounced visits to toilets across the UK in order to judge them.

The platinum rating is given only to outlets which offer “exceptional toilets.”

Meanwhile, a CAMRA spokesman said: “The Malcolm Uphill deserves its place in the Good Beer Guide 2018.

“It is our belief that if a licensee serves an excellent pint of real ale, then everything else in the pub, including customer service, quality of food and atmosphere, are likely to be of an equally high standard.”

Pub manager, Danielle Stephens, said: “We offer our customers an excellent range of real ales at all times, including those from regional brewers and microbrewers, as well as hosting our own beer festivals.”
