The Pepper Pot Bar and Grill in Ceredigion

The pub/bar is nestled in the town of New Quay and has a great veranda eating area, as well as the snug and inviting pub itself. Food quality is very goods and their are some gluten free options and lacto free ice cream too. The pub itself is well laid out and quite cosy, Staff are attentive and kind and the food is very tasty, size of the portions aren't massive but to be honest we all left full, just on a main dish. Toilets are clean and tidy which is nice to the side of the bar. Food pricing is between £6-10 ish for starters and mains are around £20+ for most dishes, £30 for a steak. I would definitely recommend this pub/bar for a lunch/dinner or just for a drink, it has a very good atmosphere and relaxed style. Definitely will definitely go back if I'm in the area again. Enjoy a stop off here!

The food was excellent, the kids menu available. Cozy environment and most importantly dog friendly. Service was a bit let down as we had to wait for more than 20mins to get our drinks and further more for food. Overall good experience and will be returning when in the area.

Such a nice team working here and the food was amazing. Thoroughly recommend.

The Best Sunday lunch In New quay 😍

We visited hear yesterday put of season.. what a lovely find. My self and my partner shared two sandwiches freshly made to order the club and Cuban all served with chips tasted fresh and just enough to keep you going on your day.we also had an extra plate for my some to share some of our chips. My daughter enjoyed her pizza and fish bites off the tapas menu. She is very fussy and didn't leave a crumb. Their wine was lovely and they have a nice selection on draft. Staff was lovely made to feel welcome and nothing seemed to much trouble. We look forward to visiting again

Lovely place to have food. Excellent service, beautifully decorated and really enjoyed our food

Great place to come for a lovely dinner. Staff are great and the food was fabulous. The portion sizes are spot on and great value too.

Highly recommend. Had a delicious meal in lovely surroundings. The staff were grear as well.

Fantastic food and some great twists on the menu 😋

Fantastic steak and gravy. Cannot fault. Definitely recommend.

My 1st visit was for Christmas dinner with a group of friends. Lovely refurb. there. Waitress was lovely. The food was too die for, top quality & beautifully cooked. Looking forward to my next meal there 😍

Lovely little place. Nice food.

Stumbled across the Pepperpot as we were walking the coastal path on a very wet and windy Sunday afternoon. We were made to feel so welcome even in our very sandy walking boots, waterproof trousers and accompanied by our wet and muddy dog. Sunday roast for two was really tasty, two of the biggest Yorkshires I’ve seen, plenty of meat and crunchy roast potatoes. An apple and a rhubarb crumble set us back out on our walk. Thank you

The pepper Pot is situated a stones throw from the picturesque village of New Quay. This pub is full of character The bar and grill offers locally sourced home cooked pub classics with an upmarket feel and taste, along with a specials board updated regularly. Although the classics and standard menu is more than enough to keep you coming back for more, the specials board is where you will find what really sets the Pepper Pot apart from the rest. We visited whenever we had the chance and tried everything we could. Firstly, the Sunday dinner, having arrived without a booking, the staff were very accommodating and made room for us between reservations. They were extremely attentive, kind-hearted, and welcoming. The dinner itself was compact and packed a real punch with everything home made and cooked using fresh and local ingredients. The Lamb was plentiful, juicey, and tender served with a handful of tasty roast potatoes, a large wedge of stuffing, seasonal greens, and a lone roast carrot and pig in blanket. What it lacks in size it more than makes up for in quality and taste. The Oysters were freshly caught and prepared. They tasted just like the ocean, perfectly pared with tobassco and lemon to break up the flavors mild flavour of the Oysters. The classic fish and chips. The cod was cooked with care and attention, the batter golden brown, crispy and fragrant, with the fish soft flakey and mild tasting. The double cooked chips were crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside some of the best fish and chips I've had.

Fabulous food and staff. Great location in New Quay. My wife and I had the fish and chips and our Daughter had the steak.

A right gem of a place, lovely staff and the food was outstanding, so much so we ate there twice on our weekend away to Newquay.

Have been to the Pepper Pot numerous times and alway had fantastic high quality food. Quality seems to have slipped somewhat now though. High priced food with pub chain quality. The patatas bravas on the tapas menu were a particular low, crisps with some ketchup on them for £5! When queried the miss sell of these were told “that’s how the chef does them” with a complete disregard from the waitress to our thoughts and them not actually being patatas bravas. I can’t think of a time I’d ever pay £5 for some crisps especially ones that quickly went soggy. Not so sure we will be back again.

We booked to come here for Sunday lunch and boy we were not disappointed. Staff very attentive and friendly, food was out of this world, plenty of it and excellent quality. We are only here on holiday for a few days but are hoping to visit again before we leave it was so good. Very clean and lovely vibe. Thank you all for a fantastic Sunday lunch.

Amazing food, amazing service, love the outdoor seating area looking down to the sea.. local people are so friendly ! Loved it here.. I had Sunday roast dinner and a cooked full breakfast, both were so good.. highly recommended x

Called in for a beer, stopped for a starter. Food excellent, service very friendly and efficient. Will definitely call back for a full meal

Amazing food and service, couldn't fault it at all! We had the sliders and lamb 3 ways, stunning and the service was amazing

We booked a table for Sunday lunch ( 1st Oct) via email, had no issues at all, and had a fantastic lunch, we opted for the sharing platter, so we had a little bit of everything ❤️ it was so tasty, we booked in for and evening meal on the Friday. I had the steak, which was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection, the homemade chips were the best I've ever had, fluffy on the inside, golden and crispy on the outside 😋 well done to you all, we love visiting every time we stay, hopefully see you soon.

Had a lovely full breakfast here, not once, but twice it was so nice 😋 Loved it.

We enjoyed our visit My hubby had the curry & he really enjoyed I had the lamb 3 ways it was so tasty Service was excellent

Had a gorgeous meal at The Pepper Pot this evening. Really warm welcome, fab drinks and the service was great. Food was so good. We had belly pork and lamb starters, and then rib eye steak and lamb three ways, all stunning! Restaurant had a really nice relaxed vibe. We’d definitely return.

A lovely quiet setting in the heart of the West Wales fishing town of New Quay. Great menu with all local produce. Charlotte and Caitlin did their utmost to provide great hospitality and good service. I highly recommend the Tiger Prawns for starters and their Dark Chocolate brownie for dessert. Both simply scrumptious. A highly recommended dining experience.

Couldn't wait to eat here as most of the reviews were positive. The good ----- the staff were very polite and welcoming. It's dog friendly. The food was quite tasty. The not so good ------- Don't go if you're hungry as the portions are very small. The food is very over priced for the portion size, I had the special, seafood paella. Wow, so disappointed, came in a medium sized bowl which was half full. 3 prawns, 7 mussels - of which 3 were empty, 3 clams- of which 2 were empty and a few small cockles. £24!!! Terrible value for money. My husband had the burger sliders, onion rings and chips. Not too bad portion wise but a small amount of chips. Dessert was apple and blackberry crumble with a thimble full of cold custard. No fruit as such, more of a puree. I only had a dessert as I was starving after the paella. Husband had a white chocolate roulade which was nice but again, 1 small slice. £7 each! I did bring our disappointment to the lovely waitress and asked her to let the chef know, surely, if you advertise something as a special then it must include an ample portion of what it's advertising - not the small offering I received! When presented with the bill, the waitress stated she had added a small discount - this was small too 10%. To add insult to injury, the waitress asked us if we wanted any sauces etc to go with our meal so I asked for parmesan to go with my paella. It was literally a tablespoon of grated cheese for the additional price of £2!! Really?? I'm surprised my husband wasn't charged for his ketchup!! To sum up, the food was tasty, just very stingy with the portion sizes and very over priced - no wonder it was empty there.

They were so busy we had to be seated outside which is good for the business but it was a little chilly.. host was lovely but unfortunately not for us and really expensive….£42 for two Sunday dinners and two drinks… best thing on the plate was the Yorke pud… carrot was dry…meat was far to chewy and not quite sure what was in the mash but it was awful… smelt so good when we walked by so really disappointed

We chose here to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and were not disappointed. We started with cawl and chicken tandoori as a starter, then lamb 3 ways for husband and chicken coconut curry for me, with apple and ginger crumble for me and cheesecake for husband. The staff were great, very friendly, and the food was lovely. Not our usual restaurant on holiday, but very worth it. We even chatted briefly to owner/chef on our way out.

Lovely restaurant, great staff and a great vegan roast dinner. We will be back.

We decided whilst on a trip to Newquay to pop back to The Pepper Pot a little gem of a place we discovered the last time we went there. The plan was to Just have a drink but after looking at the menu we decided to have a meal. We were not disappointed. We had Chicken,Chorizo and Roasted red pepper Linguine as well as Lamb 3 Ways. The food was amazing and we didn’t wait long after ordering even though they were busy. The food was cooked fresh. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming . The staff even though they seemed busy took the time to answer questions from customers there. We can’t recommend this place highly enough and certainly will be returning the next time we visit Newquay.

Great little bar and restaurant! Good quality beer and amazing roast dinners! Attentive staff and dog friendly, handy having a well covered outside area for the unpredictable Welsh weather! We had the roast sharing board for two which was amazing the meat cooked perfectly and large portions

I can not praise this amazing place enough, service spot on 👌and a big thank you to Angela (think that was her name) for being so accommodating. The food was absolutely delicious so much so we went twice - the live music on the Sunday was an added bonus and we can’t wait to return.

Had a fantastic meal at the Pepper Pot during a recent family holiday to New Quay. The menu was varied with good veggie options for me (tofu tacos were amazing). My father said it was the best fish & chips he'd ever had. My mother was bowled over with the Welsh lamb three ways and my husband said the sliders were superb. The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant. Staff were friendly and attentive. The best place to eat in New Quay.

Came here for my 50th with friends , everything was perfection . The staff were friendly , the food amazing . We stayed in the apartment above which was lovely too Thank you to all that made my stay so special I'd definitely recommend this place

Went for tapas but were very disappointed. ; One saugage sliced in half £5 ! Patatas Bravas were some crisps dribbled with tomato sauce. Worst 'tapas' I have ever had anywhere. We did complain and had the bill reduced but unless they intend to do...

We had dinner here twice during our short stay, both times we had a fantastic time .. Abi and her team did everything they could to ensure we enjoyed our dining experience with them, they are professional, great fun and attentive, the ambience is comfortable...

Such a little gem. The food was fantastic i suggest if pork is on the menu, you must try. The fried potatoes were like crispy clouds. And the 2 lovely girls serving, were busy but so friendly

Happy friendly staff...Excellent tapas and fantastic wine .

Gute Bar oben an der Klippe über dem Strand. Schöner kann man kein Getränk zu sich nehem

What a brilliant find for our wedding anniversary. We dined with 3 of our grandchildren. The staff engaged perfectly with them. Great menu, especially the specials board. We commented that this was the best seafood we had received outside of France. Great food and service,...

Excellent food. Fantastic friendly service.

What a great find! I visited the Pepper Pot this week with my wife and children (15 & 13) andwe were all very impressed. We got a lovely welcome and were served our drinks in the outside seating area while we waited for our table...

We went for my mother in law’s birthday. They staff could not have been more helpful. Excellent service, amazing food. Dog friendly too. Would highly recommend!

Our first visit under the new management. So impressed with food, service and staff. Excellent selection of fish on the specials board, served with plenty of imagination by a first class chef. All the staff were friendly, professional and the majority spoke to us in...

Great food, best we had in New Quay. Lovely staff too, I'd advise booking though as walk ins would need luck.

Fantastic sandwiches both crab and chicken club. Lovely friendly service

Only had a drink but the food looked really good

Ate here three times during our stay in New Quay this weekend. Evening meal was excellent, beautiful fresh fish caught locally. Breakfast also delicious and all staff very friendly with attentive service. We will definitely be back!

Went here yesterday as per someones review. I was honestly disappointed. The food took 45 minutes to get to us. When it turned up the meat was nice, Yorkshire pudding was cold and the veg was served in a small bowl, limited veg. The gravy...

Popped in Sunday 13th august. Welsh folk music sounded great although no idea what they sang about. The reduced menu dishes were incredibly good, we really enjoyed and look forward to another visit when back in this wonderful part of the world.

Arrived without a reservation and were seated after a short wait (with drinks). Would highly recommend and definitely worth a visit.

Outstanding food and service. Went twice during our five day stay.

Poor poor poor Poor service Poor portions Poor food

This is an absolutely dire establishment. The service was beyond poor and the food was nothing to make up for this. We were waiting 45 minutes for our starters and when they finally arrived they weren’t worth the wait. The scallops were minuscule and overcooked and the advertised black pudding accompaniment was no where to be found. This laughable portion size left me disappointed and hungry after the long wait. The steak ordered medium rare and 10oz arrived as a 6oz at best pale grey disgrace that left me ashamed to have even given this establishment so much as a penny. Now over an hour and a half into this fiasco we are left a further 30 mins with empty plates and bored looks. When service finally arrived they were rude and unconcerned. When we asked for the bill we got a short “right” then were left a further 10 minutes waiting. We had another booking later that week and when we FINALLY got the bill we politely asked to cancel that booking and before the sentence was finished the unconcerned waitress interrupted to say “cancel, it?” in a snide voice. Absolutely avoid this place like the plague.

Popped in to have a salad which was great but a very small portion for £17. It was very overpriced and I was so hungry I had to order chips as an extra which turned up in a bowl more fit for pea nuts. Great food but massively overpriced. Shame really.

We'd been before when it was under previous ownership and really enjoyed it. Pleased to say it is still excellent! We'd booked in advance for a late lunch (2pm) and it wasn't full (apparently dinner time is very busy). There are a small number of...

The food was amazing - Sunday lunch was so tasty, the crab sandwich was so fresh, the full breakfast was just what I needed and the tapas was fab!! The staff are all so friendly and accommodating, highly recommended!!

Actually standard, service not good, turned away a family with plenty of space there, and let people with Thier dogs come and sit instead . Not pleased

Meals weren't particularly tasty nor hearty portions. We were also told there would be a 'cost implication' for subbing out naan bread for chips, given that we required a gluten free meal. However, the view was lovely, the wine was tasty and the waiting staff were friendly.

Eaten at The pepper pot every year for 4 years, but today was disappointing. The staff were excellent (fabulous!!) but the food was poor. Would highly recommend for drinks, but think twice before ordering food. A chippy takeaway could be better.?what a shame. Hope it...

Nice service but food was a bit underwhelming. Nicely cooked fish, but the sole wasn't trimmed and it lacked seasoning.

One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. Lamb 3 ways. Incredible and cannot fault anything.

This was a very enjoyable experience. Our server was very friendly and interacted with the kids well. The food was lovely- would recommend the club sandwich and the crumble was delicious. My niece has the starter mussels and it was a good size portion. The...

Just had dinner at the Pepper Pot with my wife. We were given a recommendation to dine here by friends and it was spot on. I had the lamb 3 ways and my wife had the mussels, both dishes were cooked to absolute perfection. The staff were lovely and it did not break the bank. By far the best restaurant to dine in New Quay, well done team Pepper Pot, we will be back.

What a wonderful place, the breakfast is fantastic and the service is friendly and welcoming, our second year as our drop-off before Pembrokeshire

Our second visit and as good as our first. Fantastic food and great service. You will need to book at popular times. We will certainly go again next time we are local.

Fabulous atmosphere. The food is very basic and quick going. Super lively. If you passing by is the right place

Had a very disappointing breakfast here after it was highly recommended by family who had been multiple under the previous owners. Extremely slow service, many items we ordered were forgotten and brought out after we had almost finished. The food was very average at best and we were put-out due to their chef having a meeting during our visit. We got a small percentage knocked off the price due to the abysmal meal we had, however it didn't justify the disappointment at all.

Very friendly service, genuine menu and drinks, recommended.

What a beautiful, cosy restaurant! The food was phenomenal, the service was faultless and we finally found a decent restaurant where we can take our dog with us! Make sure you book a table as they do get busy. Thank you for a lovely evening!

if you are holidaying in New Quay the Pepper pot is a must. We had dinner here on out first night on Friday and was so impressed with the food, staff and ambiance. We booked again with friends for sunday lunch for our last day...

Visited twice during. Our stay in New Quay. Once for breakfast, lovely ciabatta rolls bacon and sausage. Then booked for evening meal. Food was delicious and we had a lovely table inside and were able to take in our dog Stan. Service was excellent and...

Fantastic. Busy but still offered great service and wide choice of menu. Fabulous and very fresh. Staff were friendly and chatty. Dogs were made to feel very welcome too. I would highly recommend

Was looking forward to visiting this place after seeing the reviews. But was disappointed as ordered crab sandwich, but there was only a bit of crab, mixed with a sauce that overpowered the crab so you couldn’t taste the crab. And there was more rocket leaves and tomato than crab, and bread dry at the edges as if it had been sitting for a while before being served. It was meant to come with chips but they had run out of them. Had to get own cutlery, which was boiling hot as cutlery was sitting in full sun as was the mayonnaise and it was 24 degrees today. We also had to ask for serviettes as none available.

I ordered crab sandwich which had a small slither of crab mixed with a sauce, so couldn’t taste the crab. Bread was dry around the edges and they had also run out of chips .

Wow, what a great place to eat. We had dinner one night whilst on holiday and it was the best meal I’ve had in a while. I had Lamb 3 ways and it was delicious. My partner had a pasta dish and devoured it too....

The pepper pot was recommended to us by someone who visits New Quay regularly so we booked in for Sunday lunch. Staff were lovely and as Sunday roast goes it was as good as I’ve had anywhere, the only disappointment was that they’d run out...

Called here for breakfast. Brilliant food, service & ambience. Highly recommended

Lovely spot up a side street but if you sit outside you have a wonderful sea view from the bench seats. Food was great and staff were really accommodating and friendly. We just turned up and although they were fully booked inside they said if...

I visited the Pepper Pot at New Quay, it for the first time, but it was a first for a Sunday Lunch. Safe to say, one of the most perfectly cooked Sunday roasts that I have experienced outside of my own home. My wife and...

Booked solid so couldnt get a table - looked nice though!

Great imaginative food & nicely presented drinks. Great staff. Great atmosphere. Brilliant and VERY enjoyable.

Lovely, imaginative food (selection of tapas) and amazing dessert. Fab staff. Hugely enjoyable.

The three way lamb was delicious ! Lovely friendly polite experienced staff..

Lunch time visit. Some options not available. Drink reasonable cost. Food more pricey but in-line with a tourist village location and other establishments nearby. Lunch offer was good value. Had to help ourselves to cutlery which is fine but no one told us, so we had to go hunt after no one came back. Also a mix up over the food when ours was given to another table. We visited at 12 (Wed) and it wasn't busy despite the sunny weather. I image it would do at more peak times. Stairs up to enter. Outdoor seating with canopy. Inside seating and toilets. Low roof so mind you head. There is parking (paid) to the rear but at the top of the car park the street has a small 1hr on street free so if you're nipping in can be useful.

Amazing food not to mention sat watching dolphin in the distance with a glass of wine perfect night perfect place to sit in a lovely atmosphere and eat some amazing food I had the lamb steak. Highly recommended

Great food. Excellent welcome from staff. Excellent service. Wish we could go again but moving out if the area

Lovely new addition to new quays eateries ! Perfect for food or just drinks great outside terrace worth cover if needed but if the suns out it’s a lovely way to spend time In new quay , dogs welcome , Great food highly recommend booking...

Absolutely beautiful food and friendly staff.

Went for breakfast as well reviewed but it was a basic looking fry up which took ages to come. All looked store bought. One egg, poxy sausage, half a mushroom, half a tomato, 2 bacon rashers, beans and some cute hash brown bites. It's fine but I wouldn't recommend it really as it's nothing special. £10 for the full fry up.

Only had soft drinks & coffee here but all very nice & friendly. Able to take our dog in which was helpful.

Came here last week, very friendly and attentive staff. Food was amazing served in good time. Make sure you book, as they are so good they do not overbook, so food arrives on time. Breakfast lunch and dinner all reasonably priced, including the choice of beer. TAPAS was amazing. Hoping to return but this time with the kids!

I highly recommend this establishment if you're in the area. We had the cod and chips and it was the best I have ever eaten. Service was amazing.

Been for breakfast and dinner and 1000% best place in new quay to go for food ! Amazing customer service as well!

Amazing food, lovely staff and nice atmosphere would definitely recommend The roqfort sauce on the streak was amazing

Not sure if we came here on a bad week but did not rate this place at all. Menu is limited and very expensive (although that may be the North coming out in me!) I ordered fish and chips and the fish did not taste...

Nice food, good ale, friendly service and dogs are welcome. Would recommend.

We tried to go here on Saturday but it was fully booked, Sunday was already booked up so we thought we should book for Monday! So pleased we did as people were being turned away! Thought this must be a good sign and it was!...

Just came back from a great few days in New Quay. Ate here 3 out of 4 meals. We absolutely loved it. Food was great value, interesting and delicious. Lovely service as well. Would 100% recommend. Book early.
