Quick info
About The Colliers Arms
The Colliers Arms is a pub in Neath at 210A New Rd, where live music runs most nights and a jukebox fills the gaps in between. A band or artist performs on the live nights, so there is music on offer whether you come for a set or a quiet drink. The open plan space has TVs showing sport that can be seen from anywhere in the room, which keeps a match in view wherever you sit. The bar serves lunch and dinner meals, including a carvery-style roast and lasagne, and bottled real ale is available for those who want something to go with them. Dogs are welcome.

Customer Review Summary
Live music is the main draw at this pub, with reviewers describing a band or artist playing on Friday and Saturday nights, a jukebox filling in the rest of the time, and a lively, friendly atmosphere around it. Close behind are the staff, called friendly by several, and the real ale in bottles and well kept beer, which one reviewer found reasonably priced. Open plan seating with TVs visible from anywhere gets a mention for watching sport, and one reviewer calls it a no frills place for beers with friends rather than a romantic evening. A couple of reviewers praise the food, a lunch and a meal, but another found the chicken dry and the dinner priced like a carvery, with the lasagne followed by an upset stomach. The sharpest complaint comes from a group of three couples who were refused a drink on a Saturday night around 23.15 because they arrived after 10.30, while other customers were still being served at the bar. They were waiting for a taxi and wanted just one drink.

“Great lunch, good service, very friendly staff.”

“The Collier’s Arms in Skewen is our local pub that we enjoy visiting. It’s a place to pop in for a drink or spend the whole evening. We enjoy the live entertainment on Fridays and Saturdays. There’s always a band or artist performing, which adds a fun, lively vibe to the weekend. Whether you’re in the mood for a bit of a singalong or just want to relax and enjoy the music, it’s a great addition to the night. The drinks are reasonably priced. The staff are always friendly, and the crowd creates a nice, relaxed atmosphere. It’s the kind of pub that makes you feel right at home. If you’re in the area and looking for a friendly place with good drinks and a bit of entertainment, The Collier’s Arms is well worth a visit.”
