Bike friendly cafe (with licience to sell fall over fluid ) just opened on the b4598 between raglan and abergavenny . It used to be the known as the Charter House pub , i known its only 4 miles from the aber bus station cafe but the lad running it seems keen and plans to open a bike showroom at the rear . there's plenty of old black n white photos on the walls of past heros and a constant stream of bike sport on a big screen , they have a facebook page if thats your thing . . . and yes it really is called the Steel Horse Cafe . :beerjug:
 
A few pictures!

I dropped by today for a very nice coffee, served by Will and Ally. Seems like a good alternative to the bus station, and an excuse to ride the excellent Raglan Abergavenny back road- if you really needed one!

Definatly have to go over and check it out.
I'll be leaving the hard ass look at home though:D :eek:
 
I might pop over and have a look this weekend:beerjug:
 
that back road used to be the A40 and I remember it as the Herbert Arms.

Anyway, for clarity, as well as the Abergavenny-Raglan road, it is also on the Abergavenny to Usk/Chepstow road as they merge next to the café.
