The Angel Inn


Open late   Dancefloor   Less studenty  

57-59 (Upper) Great Darkgate Street - (01970) 617878 - Map


Behind the slightly scary entrance is a larger-than-expected pub, popular mainly with a slightly older crowd of Aber locals.

The back room has a small dancefloor, and Friday and Saturday evenings can be quite busy from after 11. The Angel is also occasionally the venue for the university's rock society, RocSoc.

  • "The Angel is a wicked mini-club with a varied clientele." - DJ Nice Nice [Feb 2004]
  • "A pretty kickass pub when you get to know it. Indiesoc, Rocksoc, Punksoc and reggae make it one hell of a fun pub Monday to Thursday." - Ollie, Aber [Feb '05]
  • "Great for a laugh, hasn't changed in 10 years. I've never had a bad night in the Angel - love it!" - SMH (ex-local) [Dec '04]
  • "I like the Angel coz it's free and the ugliest of people look good in the dark smoky atmosphere that it contains. Toilets need a clean though." - Marie (Local)
  • "During the 1980's I inspected the Angel in many different states of mind. In those days Aberocsoc discos meant half-an-inch of sweat on the floor in the back bar. We headbanged until we thought we would get brain haemorrhages (it wasn't called moshing in those days). Tick from Dick. The day they changed the strings on the guitar. The pool room. Oh sweet memories." - 3rd Stone From the Sun [Feb 2005]
  • "This was the best pub in town then I lived in Aber 20 years ago, nice to see it's still rated highly." - Peter D., Cambridge [Feb 2005]
