The Trinkhalle (pump house) in the Kurhaus spa complex in Baden-Baden, German was built 1839–42 by Heinrich Hübsch in a complementary architectural style as the spa's main building. The 90-metre arcade is lined with frescos and benches. The spa waters are said to have curative powers.

A branch office of Baden-Baden's tourist information bureau is located in this historic structure.

Thought you would get this one.  Yep it is the Hofbrauhaus in Munchen.   Fantastic place.  I supped a few litres in there when I did drink!   Was amazed at how the waitresses could carry so many full Steins of beer at the same time.

A wild guess at the Blackboy pub in Caernarfon.

The Castle in the fireplace and the two brass looking etchings made me think of the Blackboy Pub.

Hope that you enjoyed your stay there, I've heard some good reports about the food there.    $good$

Where in N Wales would you find a phone box, letter box and a new shop all together?      $walesflag$

To narrow it down a lot, the new shop, phone box and letter box are in Conwy County and less than 20 miles from the Three Towns area.

That's a good try Yorkie and I can see why you thought that, but it's not correct I'm afraid.   

I've seen a lot of walkers go past here but none going into the new shop.   $walesflag$
I'm sure that some of our walking forum members have gone past at sometime as it's on the main road through this place.
