The Potters in Newport

First sunday roast as part of an engagement party ,service was brilliant, food was amazing really can't fault it ,well done to all staff

Great pub, restaurant and club.

Went in for breakfast. There were 3 of us. Ordered our food and drinks. Waited 40 minutes, still no food. Went and asked, gave our table number, and was told they were very busy and ours was next. Waited another 20 minutes watching people who had come in after us and had their food and went to ask again. Told again that we were next. We said we think we have been missed totally and that others had been served and given their food. Suddenly ours arrived. The food was very nice but we ended up rushing it as we had commitments. So, where we were hoping for a nice enjoyable breakfast was a rushed one.

This place is a legend for good food and music. Sunday lunch is not to be missed and gets busy. Nearest carpark is Friars Walk.

My wife and I had a meal booked for a works evening and we have a needy dog but the Potters don't allow dogs so we won't be able to go. In Cornwall most shops and eateries allow dogs, even clothes shops. What a pity Newport is not on the same page and has not realised what a vast customer base that they are missing out on.

Went on Friday for a meal at 5pm and a few beers after a very long week , it was fabulous. I requested a quiet table as I needed to talk over some things , which was duly delivered. The lady that served us was absolutely amazing and a credit to the Pub the food was also lovely. Will be back when I’m next in Newport !

Excellent service from the staff. Food was really good hot, plenty of it and really reasonable price. Would recommend a visit. I had the chilli, rice and chips which was really tasty.

They have a policy of 25 and older which is honestly obsurd. Really enjoyed going to there rooftop but was disappointed when I was turned away another evening.

Great food with a lively atmosphere. Best pub in Newport in my opinion.

The food was not good i had a ham salad and it was more lettuce the anything the staff were rude

Brilliant service.Patryck is a superman!!

Best value for money dinner that I’ve had for years. Ordered cheesy garlic ciabatta bread for £3.75 and fish and chips for £12. The ciabatta was a full length ciabatta slice which at every restaurant I’ve had for the last 5 years serve around 3-4 pathetic slices. The fish was longer than the plate and half of the width of it too. Chips were alright, typically frozen chips but not complaining. Comes with mushy peas which were fine and tartare sauce. Drinks were fairly priced and there was a local musician in the bar playing music throughout my dining experience. 100% recommend without a shadow of a doubt. Wish I could dig the pub up and drop it near where I live as I’m a 3hr drive away from it.

Went there for a get together with friends. No waiting to be served at the bar. Staff friendly food lovely and hot..

Nicely priced meals, varied menu and superb waitress service as always

Nice modern pub with live music

You will NOT get a better breakfast for the money anywhere else.. The service is fairly quick and the girls are always polite.. The plate is absolutely chock full and the extra large & large breakfasts are unbelievably good

Jeanette behind the bar was amazing

Sunday lunch gone down hill but still gorgeous staff.

Loved it, friendly staff, prompt service, food was still hot when brought to the table, A very pleasant evening with good food cold beer and and served with a smile, 10/10

Terrible service waited 10-15 minutes at the bar no one came so we left

Waitress/ bar person Jeanette always greets us with a smile and is unfailingly patient, helpful and friendly.

Geanette served us and she was happy and chatty Food good as always

Jessica was our waitress she was very friendly and helpful and recommended some lovely meals to try!

Great choice on menu for lunch. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Impeccable service. A special shout out for Jeanette and Sandra.

Really good pub ,love the terrace bar on top , good music and food drinks are a bit pricey but you pay for the entertainment,always worth a visit

Friendly atmosphere and great service especially from Jeanette and staff again will be coming back soon when in the area highly recommend

Couldn't fault the food and service under a microscope! Highly recommend the Surf 'n' Turf. Emily, our waitress, went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. 5 stars all around 👏👏👏

We meet every Thursday morning for breakfast. Great food, speedy service and always spotless. Sandra and staff are fabulous.

Absolutely stunning breakfast, had the mega breakfast for £9.50 & it was mega 3 of everything with a coffee bargain. All food was freshly cooked, piping hot & tasted good quality 👌

Sandra fantastic as always. Lovely food

Been coming here for years and standards and quality of food has remained extremely high. Best breakfast and value for money in Newport.

Great night out good food and good service without the younger ones pushing around like some other places in town.... yes I am a man of a particular age lol

Cannot fault the Roast dinner, just like home made and plenty of it. I'm not a big eater but cleared my plate.

I’ve had three dinner time pub meals in here over the last couple of months and a few breakfasts Everytime it’s been banging Piping hot fresh and nice portions plus the price isn’t going to force you to sell your Rolex Well done love it See you soon Jw

Breakfast here is unbelievably good value and tastes great. £6.95 for a large breakfast with a drink in 2024 is unheard of!

Managed to get a large breakfast one minute past the deadline.And it was hot,quick to the table and perfect like usual

Finally, I tried the food at the potters, and it did not disappoint. Large breakfast, which came with 2 rounds of toast and drink, was delightful. Was also huge, and it did defeat me, but I will def be back for lunch soon!

The quintessential British Pub experience - had a delicious Steak & Ale pie with chips & peas and a pint of Staropramen - in a great ambience.

Went for Sunday lunch which was amazing ,lovely portions even took leftovers home for tea .a lovely vibe and lovely staff . Also very friendly and hands on manager .you should be very proud of your team . Will definitely be back

Yes The Potters was a good visit providing a friendly atmosphere. The beef in the beef/onion roll had gristle which I felt v could have been cut away from the piece of beef and we had to move eventually from our seat to vacate for the table which was reserved. However the visit/experience was good.

Fantastic Sunday dinner, a variety of options to have and was delicious!! would definitely recommend

I'm not sure what to say. The place is in newport so don't expect too much of the clientele . Whilst pushing our way through the fight outside we hid inside. We like the love music. The friendly bar staff putting up with quite alot. And the scuffles were dealt with outside. The roof top bar is nice . I've marked it a 4 because we would go again. Full marks to the door staff and door staff who were professional and friendly. Shame the rest of your customers weren't so well behaved.

Prompt service and so many choices to choose from.

Friendly staff and a well presented pint.

Excellent food ..great entertainment on Saturdays 😀

Absolutely the best breakfast in newport hands down. Lovely staff great food. Always clean. Been going for years and not had one complaint with any meal I’ve had. Highly recommend

Just recently had a meal in the potters. I ordered the 8 ounce rump steak. I requested that I did not want any of the extras such as salad or onions etc just peas and chips with my steak as these extras play on my stomach. I did not get that it came with all the trimmings wich spoilt my meal. I just left it and walked out.iwont be back.

Brunch has sausage unable to cut like leather. Dry hard bacon.

Hi, Great Lunch last weekend! Brilliant place, easy parking nearby, best roof top bar you will experience! I very much recommend the Sunday Roast, the turkey was amazing! Made to feel very welcome by all staff with a particular mention to the lady called 'Emma, I believe she is management, fantastic! Thank you. Will return. Kind Regards TJ.

Once rated potters 5 star but not now the last two visits were unpleasant one due to a member of staff constantly staring at myself daughter and her children and today poor service they might review there prices too

Stopped in for a couple of drinks after a long days travel

Great breakfast here. I normally go for a Spoons large when I'm out and about, but saw this rated highly and not a crazy price (£6.95 for a large). Glad I did, as the breakfast was really filling, with 4x pre buttered toast, tea, plenty of mushrooms etc. Service was good, tho the tea came out 10 mins before the breakfast.... The pub was busy with people getting breakfast so they're onto a good thing here.

First time here for breakfast ,I enjoyed it ,the bacon was,nicely cooked nice and brown,the toast needs to be a bit done for my liking wasnt very nice.

Great band playing waited ages at the bar every time I went and didn't notice who was first so lots of people served before me

Just had drinks on the sunny upstairs terrace. Great Atmosphere. Friendly Staff.

Was there for drinks and music with my friend and we loved.

Great all round atmosphere. Live entertainment. Great food Good selection of beer's.

Lively venue in the evening. Live bands. Good beer

Decent food and drink. Polite staff. Advertises regular live music.

Didn't have food, only a few drinks but it was very nice and the atmosphere was lively. Service was good

The beef was extremely over cooked the the potatoes and vedge was as if it had been kept in hot cupboard all day we did go around 4pk however I must say I've never had such a poor experience with a roast dinner I had a bite of the meet and had to spit it back out my plate was returned as it was given to me and we were still charged full price

Wow, tonight I witnessed the most horrible exchange between the notorius Vinnie and the lovely lad that recently started. He and Enzo treat the staff so badly I don't feel I can support this venue any more. Why Vinnie is still working there is beyond me, none of the staff and not many of the regulars like him. I'm voting with my feet.

The food was delicious, and the service whilst dining was exceptional. It was disappointing when we went up to sit on the terrace, for early afternoon it was very rowdy. Only one member of staff at the bar and no security.

Always had a good time at the potters with atmosphere always good. The entertainment is obviously paid for by the high cost of drinks. I paid over £14 for a double G&T and small diet coke. I would suggest having a drink elsewhere prior to making a visit.

beautiful meal. Family favorite. Good quality food. Favorite place. Best food in Newport.

Good atmosphere food is ok but could be better and time to get the food could be better.

quick little stop for brekkie. Had the small breakfast and added black pudding and orange juice. All in all good value for money in a very comfy and friendly setting!

Went there for an evening meal and for breakfast while i was in the area for the weekend and the food and service both times where outstanding

Ordered a meal for 2 . Our meal was delivered to the wrong table. One of the people on that table started to eat the meal i ordered and payed for. The waitress then brought the other meal to our table. And said she would bring another meal to me. When the meal arrived it was the wrong meal . I ordered chicken curry with half rice and chips plus nan bread i was given beef madras with half and half no nan bread she then swapped the meal on other table with the one she gave me . Still wrong meal as no nan bread all i was offered was a refund on the nan bread i payed for and never received. Loads of health and food safety rules broken by staff.

had breakfast with my daughter,was excellent food,extra toast,fruitjuice,£18 ..

Great food, great service, great atmosphere, great place to go.

Excellent atmosphere but drinks on the dear side

You just can't fault the place.

Great place for food and a drink.

Excellent breakfast, fast service, always with a smile. Best breakfast in Newport.

Brilliant food brilliant service never disappointed

Always 10/10 beautiful! Never fails best breakfast in the City hands down

Group booking arranged through emma. Always a excellent vibe in potters but sometimes hard to get a seat. The real ales and wines are always excellent and the food is cheap and cheerful. Best thing is the staff who are always on hand to assist when needed. Nice to have such a decent bar in Newport.

A decent pub for a quick bite. Reasonably priced food and friendly staff.

Popped in for a pint or two... Or 😳 Nice place, great crowd and even the bouncers are friendly. I'll go there again.

-Great food -Vegan options and the option I had was delicious 🤤😋 -Friendly and attentive service -Cosy -Vegan wine

Was nice and the dessert are nice. If you haven’t been there it’s a greatest place ever

Shame on the bouncer working the door Saturday night for not allowing myself and a friend from entering due to my friends cargo trousers looking ‘like work trousers’ (mystified). Seeing the thrill in his eyes was tragic and sad to see that that’s how he gets his kicks. The Pod and Tiny Rebel were far better. Needless to say I won’t be coming back.

Being assaulted by Bully boy security spoiled my visit to this place I have now had a positive response from the owner and the incident has been resolved

Stayed in the Mercure hotel for the Scotland rugby match. We loved Potters which is situated across the road. I speak for all the Scots in our party. We found the food excellent on every occasion with the staff warm & friendly. It was like a home from home!!! Also the afternoon & evening entertainment was top notch. Special mention for Cathy who served us breakfast. Very much recommend this bar when in Newport 👍

Really relaxing enjoyable experience

Well... I'm stoked at the heated seat on the roof terrace! Came here on a cold wintery evening and made our way to the roof terrace and there's a HEATED SEAT so it was warm and cosy. The roof terrace is great. I've also been here in the summer and the terrace is gorge. Had a roast dinner here too in the past, big meal, quite nice. Nice selection of gin. Great cheesy music!

Went for lunch last Saturday, the good was good, but it was far too noisy for us. We couldn't hear ourselves and to have a conversation was almost impossible.

A nice pub good positioned large screen tvs we watched the Sunderland 3rd round FA Cup

I popped in Friday&Saturday was speaking to a barmaid Ellie what an amazing lovely person & friendly really made my Friday talking to her

Excellent breakfast, friendly staff

Food here is of a high standard except for baked potatoes which we have had pre cooked and stale. I've given up on them but my cousin had another bad one today. How hard is it to get a baked potato right. Hopefully this will bring the issue to the owner's attention. Great pub otherwise ❤

Lovely food and atmosphere i would recommend a vist

Absolutely stunning! Afternoon tea for 5 of us. Sandwiches were lovely and fresh and very tasty, and the cakes were so nice! Service was perfect! Staff are happy to be there and really enjoy their jobs, and this shows with the level of service given to every customer there. I'd definitely recommend this afternoon tea to everyone it's the best we've had, and we've been to a lot of places. Thank you so much for giving us a wonderful afternoon 😊AMENDED REVIEW 10/10 for the service we received for the cream tea, but by contrast, 0/10 for the service received for our meal booked Christmas time. We had prebooked our table in September! Only to be sitted amongst crowds of drunk people having a jolly good time (as they should), but whoever thought it was a good idea to sit diners in the bar area needs sacking! Service was abysmal to non existent, no cutlery (we had to ask) food cold and tastless, and then to top it all off the poor waitress who had to fight through the crowds to get to us spilt a full Gravy boat over me! And I don't mean a trickle. My dress was covered in it! We spent over £150 that night, and I wish we had gone to McDonald's it would have been 100% better. We will not return, not that it will affect the potters I know, I was absolutely gutted as I had a good rapport with the booking lady, and I can't believe we were treated so disgusting. Poor poor management.

Sunday Roast - I had heard that this was the best Sunday roast in Newport. I can only agree - we had Roast Beef - it was hot, tender and delicious. The gravy was home made, which you could tell both from the taste and look. Very very good, we will be back for more !

1st time in Newport and what a brilliant pub, we will return. Slainte Mhath

Lively pub, very busy when we visited. Good atmosphere and plenty of TV screens if you like sports.

Lovely place, friendly staff and helpful. If youre disabled recommend to go there ,great pub .we'll done to all the people that run the place.
