The Roman's Cafe in Newport

Sat inside and had toasted teacake and coffee. Teacake was large but jam was extra. Found it too noisy. Area for parking very ramshakle with old cars and vans.

Best pub in Newport and one of the best pubs I've been to. A frequent stopping point for many raconteurs, writers, artists, musicians and the likes over the years. Proper pub. Joe strummer used to drink in here so it must be decent

Nice food at great prices but service can be quite slow, had to remove a star arrived there today at 6.50pm kitchen closed ? States online open until 8 pm ,seems to be getting worse every week now one staff member to serve two separate bars and food and kitchen closes at will no notice , removed another star today I purchased a chip shop platter £13.70 for me and a chicken platter for my son £11.70 so with a drink each £32 , my fish was paper thin with loads of batter and cost £5 more for a small fish cake 3 scampi and tiny amount of curry and even though states bread and butter I received none , never again both of us ate again after meal if you want value for money stick to the 2 meals for £13.50 Monday to Thursday as more expensive meals are just not worth it and often missing items listed on menu no reason given. Sorry I believe in honesty turned up today Sunday for dinner with son empty tables everywhere but it was only for bookings for mother's Day? , online says kitchen open 12 till 4 no mention of being turned away hungry if you haven't booked? , I had Sunday dinner there last week no mention of have to book for next week? Are we supposed to be mind-readers to eat at the gaer inn I have to admit I'm psd had to go eat at subway , it makes no sense to turn away regular paying customers in this day and age , next year they be saying they can't afford to stay open 🤔 hello your turning regular paying customers away with loads of empty tables, just makes no sense

We had the most friendly and welcoming night, we went for bottomless Eve, 5-7 on a Saturday, what incredible hours for a city, they were constantly asked for more drinks, had the best positively for more drinks and even love music. I can not wait for summer in their most gorgeous beer garden! Highly recommend! Xxx

Waited at bar to order food, barmaid had back to me and carried on cleaning wine glasses, served by gentlemen in the end. The barmaid had a face like doom.
