Fantastic no other words will cover our visit this afternoon. Firstly the service was of the highest quality from start to finish. Secondly the food was excellent. Thirdly the range of tea was outstanding. Highly recommended.

This is an experience not to be misses - this time we had High Tea. Food and service were excellent. As is the norm, we could not eat all the goodies so they box them to allow us to eat later....much later!!!!!Highly recommended - lovely treat and not to be missed.

We had the most enjoyable experience in a beautiful setting. A fabulous choice of 4 savoury treats, eight different cakes, scones and a devine rhubarb trifle. The staff were so kind and attentive and really seemed as if they wanted us to have a real treat. They were careful to enquire about any food intolerances which made me feel at ease mentioning mine (rather than other places where it is almost an inconvenience). Top marks all round.

The room and setting for afternoon tea was well set out, comfortable and relaxing. The staff were friendly and attentive even with social distancing and masks. The best bit was the afternoon tea itself which was superb. All dietary considerations were easily requested and there was no delay in any of the service. Would return again without hesitation.

It’s been almost a year since our last visit (which is far too long), but yet another amazing and scrumptious afternoon tea. Very special thanks to Patrick again for his excellent service and joy to talk to. We have tried a lot of afternoon teas around the midlands and this is by far the best of them all.

This is definitely the best place to have afternoon tea. Everything is perfect. The warm sausage rolls are to die for! However I do wish there were less cheese savoury items but will ask next time if this can be accommodated. Atmosphere is lovely, the staff very helpful and knowledgable. We’ll be back for our annual Christmas tea :)

Had a delicious High Tea at the Angel Hotel. A fantastic selection of sandwiches, savouries and cakes and not forgetting the strawberries and scone to finish too. Lovely surroundings with the staff being very friendly and professional. A great selection of teas on offer (or coffee), in what was a superb way to spend a couple of hours indulging. Would definitely recommend and can’t wait to go back!

An excellent selection of sandwiches, savouries and cakes with endless supplies of tea and coffee - the Angel Afternoon blend tea was lovely. This is the second time we have been and again I was given a voucher for High Tea for 2. I did however feel this time a bit of a “second class citizen” on entering the restaurant as the head waiter insisted I hand over my voucher before sitting down. This was not done in any way discreetly and no-one even offered to take our coats which we were left to hang on the back of our chairs. The staff were very tentative to us throughout but when we were ready to leave, no-one asked us if we had enjoyed our afternoon tea experience or even say good bye. We just walked out of the restaurant, through the hotel lobby and out into the street.

Seriously excellent High Tea this afternoon. An afternoon delight - almost as good as s3x, this made a fantastic birthday treat. Nice room, attentive and courteous staff. And phenomenal vegan treats. The difference between their "Afternoon Tea" and "High Tea" is just £5 per person but the warm savoury items they serve for the extra are the highlight of the meal and worth IMO twice the price. A samosa in the most delicate pastry with rice noodles, an arancini ball, some bouchees with (?) tapanarde and sweet chilli, and a crostini piled high with avocado and tomato. Such skillful cooking. It scarcely needs adding that the sandwiches were very good; the scones lovely; the chocolate cake dreamy (and an extra portion with Happy Birthday iced onto the plate) and a fine range of teas.The sweets that we could manage were placed in a beautiful doggy bag - we look forward to enjoying them tomorrow.I'll be happy to share how good this was on Vegan Facebook groups. Bravo.

We have been here before and the standard of service and quality of the food ,a well lit dining room beautifully laid out,but one thing marred this event was the sight of people’s coats slung over the back of the chairs,why oh why don’t the staff take them away,I know the staff ask and the customers say we’ll put them on the chairs but it really spoils the occasion and looks like a cluttered fish & chip shop, pity really.

First off I'm not give kind of suit and tie guy but misses wanted to go. On approch the car park was very clean and well kept lovely fairy lights in forecourt entrance. We all sat in some comfy seats whilst waiting for our table.We were offered some bubbly wich was a nice way to start the night. ( though I don't drink) We were seated and given menus. 3 valentine courses for £50.00 each. I had soup to start then beef with a lovely sauce then ice cream to finish. Misses had ham hock tureen then chicken and garlic mash. And chock pud to finish.All amazing. Staff were very friendly and professional throughout. Bit strange that we had a different waiter or waitress on every course :-?.Nit a bad thing just an observation.There was a guy playing the piano most of the night. Gents toilets were spot on very clean and tidy.The whole place has an up market feel to it. If ur looking for a venue to treat urself then this could be the place. Whole venue V clean tidy proffecional friendly staff. So all in all misses happy bit posh for me buffoon service and atmosphere was good.worth a visit.

The Angel is a hotel and restaurant in a class of its own, one of the Abergavenny region's highlights. We have both stayed there, a while ago, and more recently eaten there on many occasions, but this was our first visit to sample the Angel's famous afternoon tea. We have had afternoon tea in quite a few other places, at top-end venues in London and Bath, for example, but the Angel's afternoon tea tops them all. The quality is outstanding, finger sandwiches, warm savouries, scones, jam and cream, and lastly the cakes ... not to mention an extraordinary wide choice of teas. All beautifully presented – and what you can't eat you can take home in smarty presented boxes. All in all, this is a real treat, memorable and something special.

We had a thrill of a time at The Angel’s High Tea. Most exciting was the ten page tea menu. What a treat to read about and explore all those teas. And you can try as many as you’d like. We loved the savory food particularly and the sweet things were great fun to eat as well. Everything came on tiers and was just as excellent as what one might get at the top London hotels. The big difference being the quality of the servers and the price was ama I got reasonable for what was included.

High Tea at The Angel purports to be one of the best outside of London. Having sampled Afternoon Teas at The Lanesborough, Hyde Park Corner, The Langham, and Fortnum and Mason, I can confirm that tea at The Angel rates better than all of these with the possible exception of The Lanesborough. To be fair, at The Lanesborough one is entertained in a glorious banqueting room with conservatory, palms and live piano music, which notches up another star. Most of the London teas offer style over substance, things dangling from wires, globe like creations circling around culinary planets which are amazing to behold but disappointing to eat.

Our first time at the Angel for this treat , nice ambience and welcome , I would expect a better level of service, no one talked through the options and we were just left for some time before anyone arrived to take the order. We did order two cocktails and waited . The cocktails took 30 minutes to arrive and got to the table a good 5 minutes after the food and tea arrived . In all from seating to food took 25 minutes . The sandwiches were lovely , the waitress although nice and polite didn’t really know what was on the plates ‘quiche type thing’ was one description.

After finishing the meal, watching a waiter almost knock my Father( who walks with a stick) over as he forced his way through the same doorway, complete with tray in hand was a bad way to end lunch.

We visited as we heard that the Afternoon Tea had won awards as the best afternoon tea outside of London. I highly recommend going for the High Tea with the savoury pastries option as the standard tea might be a little on the sweet and sugary side. It was a lovely afternoon on a bit of a rainy day but I am not sure it is the best I have had outside London. The service was a bit mixed: the lady who I think was the manageress was fantastic but the other two people who served us were not up to her standard at all. We had to ask a few times what the items were as it was all said so quickly it was very hard to comprehend. The food was very typically English and old fashioned which is lovely as some places have moved away from this and therefore it is a proper English Afternoon tea - ham and mustard, egg mayonnaise, smoked salmon and cucumber, and coronation chicken sandwiches - could it be more English?

The service was excellent, they took photos for us and we were not rushed at all. We had a separate stand which was vegetarian only which I was grateful they understood you can’t mix meat/fish with vegetarian food (not everyone understands this). We had lots of treats left so brought these home in lovely little boxes with pink ribbon to enjoy later. This was a treat for my mum and she was delighted with the whole afternoon which made it even more special.

Afternoon tea was a disgrace. The staff were rude & impatient. The food was of very low standard. I fail to see what other peaople see in the place, but then again it depends on your own standards.

The afternoon tea at the angel was lovely and the service couldn’t be faulted.

Thursday 17th January 2019. Tea for 2 with a glass of Prosecco each. This was a gift from our son, and what a gift. We actually booked this for 2pm and treated it as late lunch. The Angel hotel is lovely, everything immaculate (including the loos which is always important), and all tastefully decorated. Clearly no expense spared. There is parking behind the hotel in the hotel's car park, and if that is full (which is often) simply across the road is municipal parking, and plenty of it, so finding a place for your car nearby should never be a problem. The Prosecco was good quality - not the usual thin fizz. Then you get a menu of the numerous teas on offer (we ordered ours to come a little later as we savoured the fizz). The food arrives on a three tier cake stand (one such cake stand per couple). On the top level were delicious warm savouries - sausage rolls, coronation chicken, prawns, etc. I of each. Mid layer had cakes and pastries, and bottom tier some gorgeous sandwiches with good quality fillings - eg excellent beef, ham, and smoked salmon. In addition we had a lovely little trifle each and, of course, a scone with jam and cream. Top quality ingredients and all beautifully and freshly made. Am not a big tea drinker, but my wife said it was excellent. Professional and friendly service. There is an awful lot to eat, so they are used to boxing up what you cannot finish so that you can take it home. Abergavenny has some nice shops so it's worth a stroll around afterwards to help the food go down! Highly recommended.

Love what the Griffith family have done to various venues around Aber - such detail and impeccable taste. But this is sadly subjugated at their flagship venue, The Angel. Out in the central courtyard, there's a hut that looks like it's been borrowed from Plymouth Xmas market and music that is totally incongruous to the surroundings, ie banging dated 90s house/rave music. It's all gone a tad footballers wives and not in a good way.

Lovely venue- nice calm, tasteful decor and relaxed atmosphere. We had high tea which was delicious and the selection of teas was excellent. The savoury pastries were a really nice addition. Very helpful and friendly staff who were very attentive. You can take anything left over with you (although I gave it my best effort!)

We visited as a group of five yesterday for afternoon tea! We thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon! The food, from sandwiches to cakes and scones were delicious! We would definitely recommend and we will be back!! The cherry cocktail was definitely a must have.

We took my mother here as a birthday treat. The Angel is a lovely hotel and I’ve visited many times before but never had their afternoon tea. From the moment you are taken to your table you know that you are in for a great afternoon.

We visited The Angel today for a Champagne High Tea. Staff were both welcoming and efficient and the ambiance in the hotel was excellent. Exquisite food which brought a real smile to our faces. The hotel has been tastefully decorated with attention paid to the smallest details. It was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon and was enhanced by a visit to the Angel bakery across the road. Recommended to anyone who really enjoys food produced and served to the highest standard. An amazing selection of teas and coffees to accompany the food. No cheap champagne either - a glass of Bollinger topped the best High Tea we had ever had.

We had high tea and all 3 of us suffered from a bad upset stomach afterwards. We didn't eat anything else that day. I can understand having a bad something in the food... but the hotel manager's response was disappointing and dismissive.. very unsympathetic and combative. A shame as the waiting staff on the day were lovely. We won't be returning ... expensive way to get ill.

With a choice of High Tea or the simpler Afternnon Tea you won't go hungry. A plentiful supply of fresh cakes and warm scones is accompanied by a great variety of proper tea, all served in a lovely room with excellent service. Without doubt one of the very best (of many) afternoon teas that we have enjoyed.

This was a treat I had wanted to indulge in The Angle’s afternoon tea for a very long time and was certainly not disappointed.

Looked for best afternoon tea in Wales. Drove 30 miles for this, worth every mile. Scones were excellent, all the cakes and savouries similar. Best cucumber sandwich I have ever had. Service 5*. Would highly recommend.

My husband surprised me with High tea today for my big birthday coming up. The service and food on offer was excellent, the staff could not do enough for you from the greeting at the front of the hotel right through to the end.

Visited last week for High Tea. Had a voucher as a Christmas gift. Parking at rear of property. Lovely building with a few smallish rooms to sit and have a drink in. Large dining room where high tea was served. Didn't seem very busy. Given a menu which showed High Tea at £30 per person or Afternoon Tea at £25 per person. Alcoholic drinks were extra. We chose a bottle of Prosecco at £30. We were asked if we had any allergies. As one in our party was gluten free theirs was served separately. Each given a large 3 tier cake stand with sandwiches on bottom, egg, salmon, beef and ham. Savoury tarts on top and selection of cakes in centre. Also a glass dish each of Eton mess and when you feel you cannot eat anymore they bring you warm jam and cream scones!!!!

Since I've had to cut gluten out of my diet several years ago I never expected to be able to have a High Tea treat again. Well, what a fabulous surprise at the Angel Hotel.

A friend and I had afternoon tea this today at The Angel and haven't stop raving about it. It was stunning! The food, the service, the setting. Everything. A really memorable afternoon. Nothing was too much trouble for our waiters who gave beautiful service and were so accommodating of us and my little 7 month old baby. The food was delicious and fresh - Good old fashioned baking done to perfection. I'll be recommending this to everyone who comes to visit.

This was a brilliant treat given to us as a wedding present by our motor club. Welcome was good and the food was delectable. Unable to eat it all so boxes were available for taking the rest home.

My wife & I visited this lovely pub on a Thurs lunchtime. We had been fancying a Jacket Potato( thrilling I know), so called in for a look. It's very traditional inside with a superb location near the Bridge into England & with a spacious outside area next to the river. However, it was too cold for this in February. We were greeted by a very polite & helpful female staff member, as we walked towards the bar. We could choose any table, but 2 ladies leaving recommended the smaller room with the roaring fire. An excellent choice because it was lovely & warm, on a windy, cold day.The lady brought us menus, told us the specials & then left us to peruse the menu. We were very pleased to see a Ploughman's, which seems difficult to find these days. We ordered 2 mixed. We were not disappointed when it arrived, served on a wooden platter. Excellent ham off the bone, not packet rubbish, & 2 generous helpings of different cheeses. A very fresh salad, red grapes, a side of chutney, sliced apple & a big chunk of fresh tiger loaf. Delightful, enough to make the baked potato a long forgotten thought. The pub became busier, with most people opting for the flagstone cwtch, with the warm log fire. The food going to these tables, looked as nice as ours. If you visit Chepstow & fancy some excellent food in a lovely old pub, ensure you check out the Boat Inn, you won't leave disappointed.

A hidden gem!! Spent ages searching for vegan food around this area whilst on holiday. I eventually gave up and settled for a Chinese takeaway. Much to my surprise, when I opened the website to order online there was all my fave Chinese dishes with vegan chicken and vegan duck options!!! I don't know how this has been kept quiet, but this is THE best Chinese takeaway ever! Beyond surprised at the inclusive options. 10/10 proper Chinese takeaway food, good prices, big portions and lovely staff. Thanks :) would love to see vegan chicken balls on the menu too in the future!
