The Lyceum Tavern in Newport

Great family run local, lovely food and a huge Sunday roast....

Went for a Sunday lunch, the meal was beautiful,very well cooked and tasted gorgeous.. The service was excellent and staff so polite.A lovely old fashioned pub with amazing food..Will be returning.

I had a lovely time here on the Michael Jackson tribute night. Didn't eat here but the atmosphere was brilliant, the act excellent and the people/so nice. Would visit again.

Fantastic food, friendly staff 😁

Proper family pub. Great atmosphere.

Went here for the first time . Staff lovely as was the food

Nice pub , I walked with friends from Newport lorry park .. well with it , Hood choice of beer, such friendly helpful staff , clean & tidy .. didn’t have food but look forward to next time , food looked great . We had a wonderful evening. Thank you . Gary P

The Lyceum Tavern is friendly place it is spotlessly clean. The choice of food for the £6 00 menu is excellent. I look forward sampling more meals off that menus very soon.

Perfect little pub, full of character.. I've not had food or spent a lot of time here , but sk for so good.

We are from Surrey staying with relatives and went here for Sunday lunch. What a surprise ! Such a welcome by the staff. Our waitress Barbara could not be more polite and cheerful. Nothing was too much trouble. We would recommend this establishment most highly

Friendly atmosphere, great food

Food was terrible,cold plates,cold peas and the chips were cold,soft and soggy

Great food fast and efficient service by friendly staff excellent selection of beers at reasonable prices

Went to the Tavern for family mother's day meal. Food was tasty! and hot ! service was excellent!atmosphere was great! as always all for £10.50 Well done all involved!

Excellent Sunday lunch and friendly staff

Always a pleasure visiting my local Harvester in Cwmbrân, burgers were absolutely spot on and the children thoroughly enjoyed their meals and desserts. Molly was a star server and couldn’t have been more welcoming!

Your typical local pub with really friendly staff.

A lovely place and really fab atmosphere. Customers and staff were really friendly and it had a proper old school pub feel to.it. Staff were so helpful, friendly and polite. Even had entertainment- singer who done both Elvis and Shaking Stevens sings throughout the night. The Christmas Dinner (3 course meal) was absolutely beautiful and very good value for money. In fact the previous week I'd stayed at The Vale Hotel for the same thing, but with work colleagues and the meal wasn't half as nice as the one in Lyceum. Would recommend this pub to anyone.

It was the nearest pub to the Ibis hotel where i stayed. I ordered a £8.50 burger chips and salad takeaway. I took it away and a chucked it away as it was terrible. Chips over cooked, burger totally over cooked and crisp. not good at all

fabulous welcoming pub. we have held two gatherings here and the food is always superb

Very friendly staff and great value for money on the meals . Near the Ibis hotel so good for people stopping there .

OMG £5 meal was total amazing. Ham, egg, beans and real home cooked chips. Can't wait to go again next month as I want to try the fish fingers . Landlord is really friendly and very accommodating. We have our WI commettee meeting once a month there, and reserves us some tables. Lovely cosy friendly place.

my son and me love there food the atmosphere is friendly and quite chilled out the staff are incredibly Friendly only thing is it's quite expensive but obviously cost of living doesn't help.

Very nice meal, reasonably priced and cooked fresh, with homemade chips! Will return for definite!

Great atmosphere and great food, staff are very welcoming and helpful.. top pub 👍

Yes I got my wedding reception in there fantastic 👏 😀

Nice warm local pub, very nice people run this local establishment with lovely staff and live music provided, highly recommend.

Nice lunch and a beer staff lovely great venue

Brilliant pub with very welcoming and friendly staff.

Really good experience, we have lived a 2 minute walk away for nearly 2 years but hadn't managed to get over until today. It was great, nice and quiet, really friendly staff but not intrusive, good prices and great portions. I am a fussy eater due to my autism but there were more than enough options on the menu for me. I ordered the cheese and potato pie, and it came with chips and beans, which came on one plate, but it was all plated separately on that plate, which means i can choose how things mix. We wish we had gone sooner, we will be back and we will bring more people.

Great staff. Friendly welcome really good service and food was Spot on

A great local pub. It was quite busy with a great atmosphere.

Years since I last went in but was in the area. Warm friendly welcome good range of beers.

Fantastic food service was fab i had the ploughmans couldnt finish it and hubby had fish and chips mushy peas it was lush and the service was tremendous

Great pub, friendly staff and food is excellent and they don't skimp on the portion. Fab for a Sunday Lunch but i think booking is a must due to popularity.

Local independent pub with a nice old cozy feeling, the wood work on the bar makes the place has such a traditional pub feeling, in the summer evening the seats outside are also a nice touch, I haven’t tried the food yet but I’ve only been hearing amazing things especially about there Sunday roast and a few other main meals!

Nice cosy pub very friendly and nice atmosphere and food

Luvly atmosphere and good service

Pleasant staff , pub meal reasonably priced will go again
