A very warm welcome to Tafarn Morlais

Tafarn Morlais was formerly known as The Smiths Arms, which has occupied the village of Llangennech for decades. We are a family run business, operating a good honest, traditional community pub with a traditional freshly served food menu, served 7 days a week.

We are open 7 days a week from 12 noon with a large car park. The original part of the building started its life as a blacksmith’s centuries ago, and was developed into a pub over the years. During the Winter Months we are proud to have our open log fire burning within the front bar area, where you can eat and drink in a cosy warm environment.

"…Lots of choice for everyone."

Wine is bottled poetry
Alcohol may be mans worse enemy, but the bible says - Love your enemy!
A drunken mans words, are a sober mans thoughts!
"Beer" - A temporary solution to everything!
It only takes one to get me drunk, the problem is, I'm not sure if its the 8th or 9th!
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading!

A brief history of Llangennech

Tafarn Morlais is named after the Morlais river which flows through Llangennech and feeds into the River Loughor.

Llangennech is renowned primarily for its coal mining industry during the 20th century, this may explain the previous name for the Tafarn Morlais, ‘The Smiths Arms’.

Morlais Colliery was sited in Llangennech, near Llanelli. The first pits were sunk in 1894 by Thomas Williams & Son (Llangennech) Ltd. By 1926, ownership had changed to Evan Williams who was also chairman of the Monmouthshire and South Wales Coal Owners Association.

Morlais is notable for being one of the last Collieries in the South Wales Coalfield to have used steam for winding. Before closure, Morlais still used the same steam winding engine which had been built for the pit be Andrew Barclay & Sons of Kilmarnock in 1905.
