Barnabas Arts House in Newport

I honestly had the most delicious plate of wholesome food. I had a cheesy jacket potato with a selection of salads and Katy brought me a small dish of a date and cashew salad that was to die for. Jacket potatoes simple though they are have to be done right..and this one was! My friend had a delicious bowl of carrot and coriander soup. Perfect. Thank you!

Beautiful converted church, independent arts venue, friendly staff, very reasonably priced food, tasty, healthy and nutritious! Everyone should try this place ❤️

Called in out of pure curiosity and as I was a bit peckish thought I'd try the soup - so warming and flavoursome and this came with a buttered toasted panini - such good value. Relaxed atmosphere with a very welcoming couple of staff (one of whom was the owner's daughter) who couldn't do enough to accommodate me. A lot of events going on too - looking forward to exploring this more. Such a great wee find 👍 😀

Enjoyed a very nice lunchtime welcome yesterday (complementary Christmas sherry on arrival!) at Newport's own independent arts centre with vegan restaurant, Barnabas Arts House. Friendly lady who looked after our gang ran up and down to the upper gallery making sure we had everything we wanted. My nut roast, peas, mash, cranberry sauce and gravy are pictured here towards the end of their short lives. We were nice and warm amid the artworks with Christmas music playing. Absolutely great!

Such a fantastic vibe. Really warm welcome from Mary in the cafe and delicious home cooked vegetarian and vegan food. Dhal and cobbler so tasty and new dishes to try each time. Thanks to Jan for making this such a lovely place to visit. Well worth a trip. And the picture framing is second to none as well.

Discovered this place today, it's only a 4 minute walk from the Passport office in Newport. We were made to feel really welcome and the food coffee and cake was amazing and so cheap!! We also really enjoyed the photographic exhibition, in all we were here for ages and never felt any pressure to move on. Highly recommended as a great place to visit, eat, drink and be inspired.
