Le Pub in Newport

Support your local venue. Great selection of craft beers. The only place worth going on the town centre.

The best place in Newport - try the chilli fries!

Great pub with something for everyone!

Great music and good selection of beers well worth a look

The staff are good people, there is a good selection of draught beers, consistency is a bit variable in Le Pub, but pretty good overall. It's a bit pricey, but they open late, and for people like me with awkward work hours, it's cool to be able to have a late beer. They just need to get the Talisker 10 year whisky back on the menu again

What a wonderful establishment; one of, if not my favourite bars to go to.

Great venue, my favourite in Newport! Great vegan food, friendly, helpful staff and amazing gigs to choose from! Love, love, love! Was asked to update my review in case my thoughts had changed but no - still far and away my favourite Newport pub. Great quiz there now too!

Great pub with good drinks. It is surprising that the layout is so different to Reece's flat.

Depends on the band. Not the best, but mildly entertaining.

Nice place reasonably priced drinks

Awesome venue for all kinds of music. Loads of beers and ciders on tap.

Played a show here while on tour, the staff were super friendly and helpful. We were stoked that their kitchen was vegan! Burgers were great!

Brilliant pub, great tap selection, and staff are fantastic.

Le Pub is the musical heart of Newport. They have amazing bands playing there regularly, serve great beers (including a non-alc beer in tap), and brilliant veggie burgers & chips. Definitely well worth a visit if you find yourself in Newport.

Worst place ever, bad music, lets drug abusers in, and racists. Avoid. It's normally extremely quiet anyway.

Good selection of beers and were great as well what more can you want

Fantastic spot ! The attention to detail, the cleanliness , the music and the drinks are all amazing . Everywhere you look there’s a detail and art piece that makes you happy to be there ! The music venue is intimate and great for discovering new talent. Easy to access as it is close to the station ! Fab ! And the toilets are a piece of art with pride and prejudice narrated and a piano you can tickle before you return to the bar 🥰

A now legendary pub, super super cool!

Miss the original Le pub but this is a very nice local venue/public house. Will be back soon.

A place for people under thirty :)

A fantastic space for close up rock 'n' roll!

Lovely alternative venue. Great selection of beers including vegan options. If you enjoy rock/metal/alternative music this is a great safe space to enjoy in Newport, Wales.

One of best music venues in Wales. Cracking live bands and spot on ethics. Vegan menu, LGBGT friendly and no time for racism

It's a great pub but it's pricey!! On a weekend, they serve your beer in plastic glasses and a round of three pints of IPA cost over £16. This is pricey for Newport. Guess it's a plot to keep the riff raff out.

Fully junk food vegan menu with burgers and hot dogs, dog friendly both indoor and outdoor, pool table, board games, regular events, lovely atmosphere for all ages!

Nice bar, nice music area, great experience

Always a great atmosphere, friendly staff and a great drinks selection that is all reasonably priced. One of the only decent establishments left in Newport. Would award an extra star if I could, purely based on the anti-Tory decor

Please tune the piano downstairs 🙏

Intimate gig space with welcoming bar. Vodka and coke came without ice or lemon, or the offer of either.

Definitely one of the fun places to be in at Newport

Great pub with a relaxed and fun vibe.

Too crowded with random people screaming

Great venue, great staff, great selection of drink. If you ever have been the smallest reason to go here do so, and you'll go back and back and back

Loved it here, cool pub and live music venue - well worth the drive up from Somerset 😊

Incredible people and atmosphere! Everything is awesome in there, but the drinks are a bit pricey. Still, great experience!!

Best pub I've ever been too, drinks are a great price. Lovely venue, amazing music and a great crowd. Will definitely be coming here on a regular basis. Thank you to all the amazing staff and the owner for having such an incredible venue and bar.

Always a great atmosphere, and they are good enough to always stock at least 1 gluten free beer

Love this place for all of it's entirety

Lovely!! Good burgers, though I was gutted to see the kimchi burger had been removed I really wanted to try it! Lovely venue, good atmosphere! Great fries! If I come back to Newport, I will be back!

Ok. This venue is well, pretty intimate. However, I got to see my friends in Head Noise put on a real punk inspired set...and danced my butt off! Fun was had by all!! ❤️

Great atmosphere, good music and lovely drinks!

Great selection of craft beers on draught, in a tin or a bottle, it's a shame I can no longer get there to enjoy any bands in the evenings as I am sure it would be a blinding night out As with most places it's the staff that make or break a bar and these are spot on the money- keep on keeping on, the world is looking grim for pubs and bars at the moment but I confident Le Pub will weather the storm and once the sun has come out again it will further thrive and prosper

Great gig venue with great choice of craft beers served by funky friendly staff 👌

Great venue to play in and friendly staff

Nice staff, good booze, pool table. Sometimes bad live music though,....

Great venue with superb live music

Great venue, sound is always good whatever the genre, great bar and excellent vegan junk food

The best bar and venue in town!

Nice pub and venue with good selection of beers

Great pub great people great venue 5*

Expensive, £2.40 for a half Guinness, it's another over priced music bar that will struggle unless the prices come down. Not my scene really, it's catering for a younger crowd who got money to burn.

Lovely staff, always good to see familiar faces at Le Pub. Good selection of craft beer, goes well with endless lineups of live gigs. Big up ♥️

A lovely pub, very kind and welcoming. The drink selection is good (if not to my taste; there are no dark beers). I've given it 3 stars because I have worries about its accessibility. The disabled toilet is towards the back of the pub behind the pool table. This means it can be difficult for me as a crutch user to get around whilst also dodging pool sticks. I can't speak for wheelchair users but I don't know that they would easily be able to get around the tight corners. Otherwise a nice pub. I hope they can become more accessible! Edit following reply from owner: I'm honestly tempted to remove another star following this response from the owner but I won't because I know that the owner does not reflect the rest of the hard workers there. Claiming to be "more accessible" than other places in Newport doesn't thereby make you accessible. As a disabled individual, I do not find it easy to access the disabled toilet at Le Pub. I understand that you can't move the toilet but moving the pool table would make the area much more accessible (I have seen similar comments from other disabled individuals in reviews elsewhere). Furthermore, Le Pub does not subscribe to the Radar key scheme which means that the toilet is inaccessible to anyone who is unable to ask for a key at the bar or for a disabled person who might need to use the toilet suddenly. Simply changing the lock would make a massive difference to your accessibility levels. If you truly care about your disabled patrons then please listen to us rather than silence us. At the moment your venue is not fully accessible but it could be.

Love the ambience, can't recommend garlic salted chips enough, hot off the shelves and never disappoint. Staff is extremely courteous and the stage is loud and fun!

Speaking as a musician that recently played there with my band, Le Pub is a fantastic venue with a great live sound. The guy behind the mixingdesk knows what he's doing. As a customer? Just as good. Great bar, friendly staff, nice surroundings and general vibe is good

The legacy of Le Pub has entered a new chapter

Good beer and bike friendly when there is space

Great Venue for live music, bar busy but a good selection of drinks, just a shame there's no separate bar in music section.

Excellent choice of beers, great staff. Amazing live music venue.

Amazing Staff, Food and Atmosphere.

Not for me first time and i think last time friends laugh when i said lets try it, friendly enough. Just wasn't for me or my mates. We had a pint and moved on. Toilets not the best (mens)

Lovely little venue. Very well priced and the band I went to see were amazing, will definitely go back.

A lot of drinks variety and great atmosphere!

The best pub in Newport music is at a good level and the general atmosphere is charming and enjoyable. Really nice place to drink safely.

Beers 🍻 gigs White Hills average

Fantastic pub and music venue. Great selection of drinks and vegan food.

Fantastic display of pop memorabilia and a great venue for live music

I loved this place, a great venue for watching live music

Best small venue in South Wales. Excellent sound. Great pub. Great food. Friendly staff

Bar staff excellent, place needs a good clean

Amazing pub and venue - on the music side, great sounds and they really look after the bands. Pub wise the menu is great and the drinks selection is brilliant. Staff are great and love the ethics/ethos of the place Can't wait to come back.

Thanks for hosting this evening. Really enjoyed my first time playing your lush venue. Staff were all lovely an your Mac n cheese was bangin’! Hope to see you again soon!

Great local bar with music acts

I finally visited this pub ( about a week &1/2 ago )while I was traveling in Wales ! Y AY!! It was in my bucket list for 3 years !! Very friendly atmosphere/ services !! Very good foods !! I had a vegan burger & it was delicious !! The man ( lady like ) who helped me was very pretty & sweet ! And the lady worked there I asked where the toilet was to was very friendly, too !Only a couple of issues I experienced there were ( it seemed typical in Wales & England ) that they didn't wear gloves ,or use tongues always to prepare foods ! I am from L A.& originally from Tokyo ,so I was shocked !! Also , the bathroom ( toilet ) was super smelly ( of urine ,again it seemed typical as there were too many like this I used in London & Newport,Wales !😅 ) that made me wonder when was the last time they cleaned it ,or if ever cleaning the toilet ,or not !!? These are the reasons I can't give 5 stars ,but 4 !! Sadly ! As I was very looking forward to visit this famous all vegan pub ( I am a vegetarian ) & the burger was great 👍 And the person took / prepared my order was real nice & very friendly & charged me less as I didn't want chips !! I was surprised & thought that was a great gesture/ super cool treatment / service !!! I greatly appreciated it !! 🙏🏼I recommend this pub to all vegans / vegetarians & music fans ,off course !! But,hoping they'll improve their hygiene practices on preparing foods & the toilets !!

Fantastic pub, great selection of drinks, efficient and friendly staff.

Fantastic atmosphere, everyone is so friendly.

Every town should have a Le Pub. Newport is very lucky.

Such a nice bar still and probably always will be, champions the artist, welcoming and well done out. Jubel grapefruit (lager) is a winner <3

Great atmosphere, never had a problem when going here

Brilliant gig! Friendly staff and good drinks!

Great pub. Lovely range of beers and friendly staff

Food & drinks are amazing and really well priced. The staff are super friendly and the atmosphere is lovely. Highly recommend trying out the cocktails!

Great drinks and the music on a Friday night is always class. Always worth the trip down ;)

Great pub with nice atmosphere. Great range of drinks including an extensive range of non alcoholic. To the side is a small music room with a good PA. They host a wide range of up and coming bands from UK and the States. See bands here that will be big next year.

Friendly staff, good music and nice beers.

Great venue. Great choice of drinks and friendly staff. Shame it was a bit quiet. Right bands and this place would be rocking

Great place for vegan food, some drinks, and a laugh

Best place in Newport for alt rock, hands down easily

One of the best independent venues in the whole of the UK. Run by great people who really care and try and create a safe and welcoming environment

Fantastic music venue, great food and genuine community asset. A must visit if you like great music and super friendly staff Jason

Best place for alcohol, vegan food, live music, friendly attitude and conversation in central Newport Town. Excellent staff and environment to chill or get involved. Recommended.

Absolutely love this place! Great atmosphere and Amazing food/music 💚

best spot in newport imo! 10/10 staff, management, drinks & food, great gigs, and love how acessible and inclusive it is. long live le pub🖤

I’ve experience of Le Pub as a customer, a performer, a promoter and a member of staff, and can honestly hand-on-heart say it’s the most inclusive, fair and welcoming place I’ve ever worked. Sam puts her heart and soul into the place, and I’m so happy to see the place enter it’s 30th year. Long Live Le Pub! ❤️

I wish I lived closer so that I could come more often. I'm very grateful to Sam and her team for always making my band feel welcome when we play there. She always tries to make it worth our while despite us being utterly dire and bringing in an average of four extra punters per gig. True community pub.

One of the most important venues for bands and artists in South Wales. Have always felt well looked after and safe here, due in part to their zero tolerance of d***heads. Always doing something good for the wider community and will always be one of my favourite places to play. Plus, their vegan food is top ranking… LOVE

I cowing loves Le Pub! That Sam Dabb, she's a good'un xxx

Incredible bar with a great selection of beers and spirits. Super friendly and helpful staff and is one of the very best music venues in the local area. I’ve had some amazing times and made the greatest memories here and will always recommend Le Pub.

Great beer selection and awesome atmosphere. I've only sampled the food a couple of times but it was lovely, even for non-vegans. Always worth a visit.

Absolutely fantastic venue! Superb live acts, excellent drinks selection (including the famous Trevor Nelson - must be sampled!), awesome staff, lovely atmosphere. Fun fact: their hot-dogs made me vegan. In a good way.
