The Dodger in Newport

Handy meeting place on match day

Didn't think much about the food. 2-5 two out of five.

Excellent value for money and I will return here when I am in Newport in the future.

Excellent food. I had the beef and it just fell apart it was so good

Had my engagement party there. Staff were brilliant. Drinks were cheap Great night all around

Fantastic food staff very helpful

Good beer, friendly staff and happy hour, we didn't eat but the food looked first-class

Good food and drink,reasonable prices

Food good value but could have been hotter

I was visiting to play skittles, so was upstairs in the skittle ally. Have visited before and had food which was your usual pub fare . Overall not a bad pub to visit.

Food was absolutely awesome, and a proper pub

Cannot say anything about food as I had none but really enjoyed my time there.

Party of 5 on the 2/12/23. Had the Christmas menu. Food was excellent and plenty of it. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Great evening. Would highly recommend.

Great pub I would highly recommend 👍

Good place to go after the game friendly staff

Outstanding lot in there. Dog are allowed in and nice easy way in there. Love the cuppa as well

Dog friendly pub. Staff always welcoming

The pubs a bit old and shabby run down you could say the landlady has an awful attitude and is so disrespectful I wouldn't ever go here again don't waste your money here so many better pubs in newport to spend your money in. It's a dive and its dirty

avoid at all cost. the management is absolutely shocking and the food was even worse. I will never be returning to this venue at anytime.

It is and was the best by far, as well as good scrancvvvv,

Great little pub, great atmosphere

Popped into the Dodger for a meal and drink while staying 1 night in Newport. I have to say the food was excellent perfectly cooked beer prices very reasonable staff were all so friendly. Atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Also Very refreshing to go in a pub with all the old traditions present snacks on the wall to purchase. Lovely top marks have recommended to anyone staying in the Chepstow Road area of Newport

Lovely place. We went for the quiz on Thursday night. The front has been all done up and is a fantastic addition. Staff always friendly

The Dodger var den bästa puben som jag besökt under mina dagar i Newport. Utsidan andades kvalitet och jag blev inte besviken när jag steg in i puben. Bra service och god öl.

Had sum sort of bingo or quiz going on.but it was early evening and we got told of for talking when walking through the door..it was 4.30 pm.

Very lovely staff service is great

Not great atmosphere, cheap beer

Great friendly staff, brilliant atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

I just had my dinner at the dodger service was quick and efficient and the meal was very nice definitely could be a regular visitor

Absolutely stunning food with great friendly service and superb value for money. Plenty of food and the staff couldn't do enough for us.

Lovely staff very welcoming and kind, great place to watch the sports, food is simply delicious and drinks are good priced, nice room upstairs for parties and even a Skittles alley. Really nice pool table I love playing on it each time I go in there and going to this pub. Definitely recommend for anyone looking to go to a great pub then here's the place for you.

Nice pub to go for a meal to. Big portions. Great service

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Good selection of snacks to accompany a pint.

Great pub...pint before the match and a couple after. Service always top notch. Try it soon. !! Great food menu too...recommended by many

Really good beer and food at decent prices with very helpful staff highly recommended

friendly atmosphere and good food at a decent price.

May not be the quality dinning but it was well worth the visit and we will definitely go back. Plenty of food at a very reasonable cost and the beer was just perfect.

Good atmosphere, friendly staff and great prices.

Nice atmosphere and good prices

Very busy when we were there but had drinks in garden area nice pub but didnt have the drinks we wanted apparently been taken upstairs to function

What a fantastic pub, staff were amazing food was absolutely great. We were only there for 2 days, but enjoyed every minute there. Entertainment was good as well. Would highly recommend a visit to this pub.

Nice friendly pub ,good food ,also a small venue upstairs available to hire ,they provide a buffet which is very nice ,as I recently visited 😀

Worst mixed grill ever" steak like leather undercooked salty gammon and cheapest sausages possible, and it didn't smell right" waitress was very pleasant but no offer of refund because I couldn't eat it" always a bad sign when the steak is battered with a tenderizer.

Just caught the kitchen open and wish now it was closed, absolutely the worst mixed grill I've ever tasted, the waitress was very pleasant and apologetic but no offer of refund. The steak had been battered with a tenderizer and was still like leather and overcooked the gammon was undercooked and salty the sausages were the cheapest ones made of cereal, 2 tiny mushrooms and a thinly spread out bit of salad to try and fill the plate. The only positive thing I can say is it had an egg" I've now jumped on a bus to eat in a pub I know can cook and don't buy the cheapest of ingredients.

Thursday quiz night is fantastic, great atmosphere and brilliant banter with Mark the quiz master. Staff are super friendly, great night for the cost of £1.

Absolute dive of a pub but I love it!! One of the last standing local boozers! atmosphere is fantastic, bar staff are grumpy, as they should be, food is proper pub grub (no frills), the locals are minty and colourful!! I couldn't ask for more out a pub, best pub in Newport!!

Had a great night here on my Aunts 80th

Close to Newport County's football ground. Good choice of beers and food is also served Sky Sports available, although I was puzzled by the match choice, Celtic v Hearts, when the last day of the Championship season was on. Must be something to do with Cardiff being a Championship Club !! 😁

Amazing pub great beer staff so friendly good vibes on match day not tryed the food buy it looks amazing

Lager pub little choice of ale.

Pub de quartier, typique des samedis soirs des Gallois Bonnes bières 🍺

Great ambience Friendly cheerful staff

Handy for before the game. Good value grub too

Excellent service really friendly

Good old fashioned pub. Good for a karaoke!

Great pub good pint and excellent food

Didn't stay long enough. However the staff seemed friendly. Sports on big TV.

Always book table for County home games. Good food, good beer. Top boozer

The good old boozer!! Food, beer, pool table what more do you need?!?! Great place to meet up in, 5 mins walk from Rodney parade, 15 mins walk to town.

Lovely space for a party. Only downside was all the stairs

Great food ,very good size portions.good place to go.

Myself and a colleague were working in the area for a couple of days, if we find ourselves in Newport working again we will eat here for sure. Good food at great prices, friendly and helpful with a good selection of beers.,, If there is a big match on you'd best enjoy football!

Friendly staff. Drink prices excellent. Food really good. Go an see for yourself.

Bad beer and lager to warm we change it twice still warm bad service to warm upstairs no air

Fast service even on a football day. The doorman and the staff were friendly and the drinks were reasonable. I've not tried the food but it's meant to be good.

This is cracking. Good laugh. Great bar staff. Food is top nosh. Don't be fooled by the outside look. It's fantastic. Seriously....

Excellent staff and decent price drinks

Nice to sit outside on a sunny day and have a cold beer in the breeze. Very friendly bar staff. Nice local pub :)

Come here often! always enjoy it and food never disappoints! Is a bit outdated but don't let that put you off coming!

Love the Dodger. Always a friendly face, great food and good value for money

cooked dinner was not the best meat tasted watery

Good food and the ladies who work there are just lovely. Service is brilliant.

Great food and great atmosphere at the Dodger. Would recommend it to any1 because of how nice yet cheap the food is! We have been back time and again. Great night out for family too.

Food was very well done not very to eat will not be going back

Staff really nice and polite. Social distancing well set out. Had a meal after a funeral a d very nice. Haven't been to the Dodger for a long time. Would definitely go back for food and service

Staff very welcoming and food and service was great

Stayed in a hotel and passed the dodger on my first day. It looked rough on the outside & didn’t like the look of it . The second day we thought we would give the dodger a go ‘ I can’t say enough good things about this pub , it’s very well managed & really welcoming,. The dodger is spacious inside and has appropriate measures inside for social distancing . I can only say good things about this public house. I was wrong to judge without entering the premises .... A great book can also have a tatty cover , this pub is very good. Thank you !

Great food great staff great beer...need I say more...

It's a good real ale pub, a 10 minute walk from the train station ,walk over the river usk ,the pub is across the road from shell garage.

More a sports bar than restaurant pub, deffo a lively busy spot! Food was OK, good sized plate, basic menu but well cooked. No complaints here, fair price too

It's tired n run down, but the food is good value and tasty

Decent pint reasonable prices good food

Sunday dinner here is brilliant, fast efficient and tastes fantastic. Thanks

The staff were friendly and polite

Food very good but young staff don't give a f--k as you are watching football they let there mate play the music not loud but defining it was that loud I couldn't even here what she said to me

Football day. Great atmosphere. Good food and beers at reasonable price.😎

Great pub for discussing Newport County before and after the game. And the nearest.

Very nice food, toilets could do with an up gate

Christmas dinner with work, private area. Staff were lovely, and so was the food selection.

Large food portions and the mixed grill is enormous.

Sunday lunch fabulous fresh good quality meats and plenty of vegetables k larsen.

Always meet up there before going to watch the Dragons at Rodney Parade. Would rather not but the only decent place to go now after the Clubhouse was shut at Rodney Parade.

Had Sunday lunch here today. Superb value and fantastic food

Je to predevsim typicka velsska hospudka kam chodi vsichni kteri maji radi dobre piti,jidlo a prijemnou domaci atmosferu. Navic je to misto kam chodi fanousci ruggby po zapasech slavit vitezstvi I diskutovat kdyz se nedari. DOPORUCUJI

Top boozer great staff. Ideal for pre an post match refreshments.

Been twice for Sunday lunch. Can't fault it, loads of meat and veg. All fresh veg , no frozen. Lovely meal.

Friendly and a good place to socialise

We called in for a pint on the way to town we had stellar it was a good price and was nice I would recommend

Went to a clairvoyance evening, staff were polite, drinks were fab prices. Really nice venue. Totally recommend.

I have eaten here on several different occasions, and always end up having a steak. Not sure why as I always struggle to finish it. The meals are very substantial considering they are such great value. Would thoroughly recommend this place.
