The Star on the Hill in Monmouthshire

Sunday Lunch was amazing. Can't wait to go back. Very welcoming staff . Wish this was my local would be there all the time.

Beautiful welcome from the lovely owners, a warm log fire, traditional food well done - plus a masterful G&T and love their own draught lager - a lovely pub! The gosh and chips is lovely slightly spoilt by the bought tartar sauce which is not nice - make your own tartar sauce for an easy way to have perfect fish and chips 💕

Wow. Incredible location, wonderful welcome from staff and food was plentiful. Mans best friend is also welcome.

Excellent in every way..service - prepared to change elements of the meal on the menu. Beautifully cooked . My steak was perfection. Not just on one visit but on several of late (we are local) And a super environment too from conservatory, restaurant proper to bar with wonderful inglenook open fire at this time of year. Thank you The star!

Looking for really good food and a welcoming and cosy pub for a meal out this Christmas? The Leedam Natural Burials team had a fabulous meal at the Star on the Hill, Llansoy on Friday. So many of our guests said it was the best yet. Give them a try! We're definitely going back.

We had our Christmas party at the Star this year. We were a table of 16 and we sat near the fire. The food was delicious, generous portions and the service was fantastic. Huge thanks to the team for hosting us, we all had a lovely time.

Was recommended by freind. However o did not enjoy my experience. I had sunday lunch. Beef was not cooked enough. No one came around to ask if the meal was OK. Waitresses were just stood around. We didn't have pudding due to the fact no one came to our table to ask us. We asked for the bill and left won't be back

9 or us visited for lunch. We didn’t have to pre-order. All of us were pleased with our meals including starters and desserts. Very helpful waitress.

Excellent Sunday lunch; beautifully cooked, and good quantity. Prompt, courteous and unobtrusive service. Will certainly go again.

Booked a table for 11 people, young and old, for a surprise celebration on a Saturday evening. Nothing was too much trouble. Service fabulous, food scrummy, staff friendly, atmosphere cosy. Christmas Decorations very classy and made the Conservatory a magical room to eat in. Didn't realise before hand, but there was fabulous entertainment on the night by singer Jim Ramsey & Dave Williams on Cajon. They sang new and old, an excellent addition to our celebratory evening. Would highly recommend.

What a fabulous lunch we had at the Star on the Hill. All our meals were beautifully cooked, the best chips I’ve ever tasted. The spices in my chicken curry were balanced and full of flavour. Some other meals my friends had were the gammon, sausage and mash,and a choice of vegetarian/ vegan dishes. The sticky toffee pudding was excellent as was the tart tatin. We would definitely return and perhaps try Sunday lunch next time.

The Sunday Roast was amazing! Incredible food, incredible beer and the most wonderful service, they went above and beyond!

I have been a few times for Sunday lunch and it has been fantastic every time. The food is excellent (particularly the beef dinner!) and it was a warming and cosy atmosphere. The staff are always super friendly and attentive and I would 100% recommend a visit!

Wonderful Sunday lunch in a beautiful setting!! The food was delicious with plenty of variety. Great ales and wine selection also. Highly recommend! Thank you Chloe for your kind welcome.

Fabulous Sunday Roast. On a cold, wet November day, we were delighted to have a cosy table for two next to the amazing open fire.

Absolutely delicious Sunday lunch as usual. Food was excellent; big portions, well cooked veg and all super tasty. Really lovely, attentive staff too. One of the best places to eat in the area.

Open fire to die for, absolutely wonderful steak probably the best I've had cooked for me , and the peppercorn sauce was wonderful , please thank the chef 🙂 service was also very good.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch and will be back, staff were lovely, the owner in particular, highly recommend 👍

The food was amazing, the customer service was amazing and the restaurant was amazing! Steven the manager was very accommodating and polite, would definitely recommend. 10/10 service :)

A lovely restaurant. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Very clean facilities with nice finishing touches. Most impressive, delicious food. Perfection

4 friends met for an informal reunion there, and it was the perfect venue. The staff were friendly and efficient, the food and drink were good in all respects, the venue was pleasant with a good atmosphere but quiet enough to have a good long talk, and without piped music (thank goodness). It is set midst stunning views, and though out in the country is on a good road with a good car park. Recommend it!

The food was delicious, service and staff were just lovely. The log fire was gorgeous. The whole place was beautifully clean. Only downside was the incredibly bright lighting which made you able to count the wrinkles on your fellow diners faces and should you need to you would have been able to complete an intricate sewing challenge. Please switch the overhead bright white spotlights for reflected light from orange tone side lights and wall lights. It's beautiful what the new couple have fine with the place and the chef was fab, but the lighting made it feel like dinner in an interrogation suite. Make this one switch and this will be a truly fabulous dining experience with no faults.

Yet gain a superb Sunday lunch , And service to die for (thanks Maddie) The Beef was so tender ,chef obviously knows how to cook And the dessert especially the sticky toffee pudding was amazing thanks for the custard steve. Thanks to all the staff

We had our wedding reception at The Star on the Hill and it was absolutely perfect! Chloe, Steve and the Team were so helpful and accommodating, and the food was delicious. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue to celebrate our special day!

Had an excellent Sunday lunch. Could not fault it. Unusual to have Kale and broad beans as two of the vegetables. Desserts were delicious and very generous proportions. The cheesecake came with a citrus sauce to pour over the cheesecake. Clever and very refreshing. Service...

We visited yesterday (group of eight friends). The food was fantastic - tasty, fresh, plentiful and well presented. Great hospitality. We were made to feel very welcome and will certainly return. Thanks for the great Sunday lunch x

A really excellent Sunday lunch, with lots of fresh vegetables and a friendly first class service from good waiting staff. Would Highly recommend 👌

Great views, fantastic views and the food was delicious! Large portions, lots of fresh vegetables, all food hot and worth the money. Family of 4 with drinks for £67. Lots of tentative staff providing prompt service.

We've just had THE best Sunday roast lunch at the beautiful location of The Star on the Hill, Llansoy. The service was so efficient and the staff without exception, were really welcoming and friendly. The food was perfectly cooked, the meat was tender and served...

Lovely few hours spent sitting outside in the sun. Great food and fantastic service from the team.

Fantastic Sunday lunch with large portions. The views are breath taking and so is the sticky toffee pudding.

Stopped here for a drink. We asked if it was ok for food outside, but they asked if we had reserved? When I replied we hadn't," I said "weve stopped serving." This was at 20:00, which seemed a bit odd. The table outside next to us said they had just ordered. Quite disappointed

We visited The Star for lunch today. There were four of us and we all had the special of fish and chips. The meal was excellent, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend a visit.

Ate lunch at The Star today. Much better under new owners... good short menu, well presented and both the vegan burger and Malaysian curry were very tasty. On a sunny day the views are fantastic! Observations are that their Facebook site doesn't seem to work...

Wspaniałe miejsce na odpoczynek w trasie , miła obsługa i smaczne jedzenie z lokalnym piwem .

Lovely place. Very friendly staff.

Lovely views, welcoming staff and good food although a bit pricey. Once all of the updating work has been finished it'll be a gem. Well worth a visit.

Joined for the Beefy Boys visit. great setting and beautiful venue!

Lovely location, friendly staff. Food a bit disappointing as we went with friends who had raved about it. 3 of us Ordered garlic prawns. 3 prawn cocktails arrived. Sent back and replaced. Mains-risotto lovely, could do with a small side salad or similar just to...

The star on the hill was recommended to us whilst on holiday, the service was amazing! Staff were extremely friendly here, the food was really good, If we lived locally we would absolutely be here weekly!

Decent little pub with great service everyone was really happy in the group

We had a lovely lunch here, really enjoyed the sausages and mash! The staff were great, so polite and helpful. We sat next to the lovely open fire.

The Star on the Hill is a bit tucked away in the countryside. The Food was fantastic, the drinks are reasonably priced. The service delivered as expected and the owners are very friendly. The decor, whilst still undergoing some updating, is really nice. Would definitely come back if in the area.

Friendly staff. Food was delicious! Kids loved the garten!

Stopped here as travelling a long way today and needed a pit stop. Shouldn’t have bothered, the vegan roast was horrific! See the picture of what was supposed to be a hearty roast, compared to my partners! When I asked for gravy got told there was none! £14 for a few veggies and a large piece of what I can only call stuffing at best!! Despite me complaining and getting an apology, we were not even offered the meal for half price! Awful service at best - very unimpressed!

Curry and live music evening with family and friends, lovely welcome from Steve and Chloe. The guitarist playlist was excellent and very suitable to the occasion and the audience. . We travelled as three camper vans and stayed overnight in the lower car park. Weather...

Just visited here for lunch. I really cannot rate this brilliant establishment enough. The food was absolutely stunning with generous portions, the staff were really helpful and courteous and the establishment is set in grounds with lovely views. You most certainly have to eat here, you will not be disappointed.

Excellent food, great lager and a terrific atmosphere in a stunning location. The staff were brilliant and friendly. Would 100% recommend this place to anyone. 5*

Unreal food, very friendly staff, and a good atmosphere. Simply couldn’t ask for more! We had a large group of nine of us and they were able to accommodate us on a walk in.

Very delicious food and very friendly staff. Highly recommend if you’re in the area. The location is also beautiful.

Great meal and good atmosphere.

Ordered salmon veg and noodles. Received no noodles. Salmon was the size of a fish finger! Hubby had steak at £26.00 probably the size of a beef burger. Not worth the money.

Fabulous Sunday lunch enough said! Honestly a great Sunday lunch, booking recommend. Have eaten here many times and it's always very good. Both the mid week and Sunday lunch menus are great.

Booked for Sunday lunch 1st time eating here .. wow what an incredible experience husband and I both chose the beef - it was incredible .. served with veg and the most scrummy roast potatoes. We chose to have as an extra Cauliflower cheese this...

Visited this evening, our second visit here from Caerwent - shame it’s not our local! We had a Camembert sharer which was wonderful, definitely enough for two. A burger & Teriyaki Salmon, both of which were cooked perfectly & portion sizes were generous. The team...

We visited yesterday evening for a meal and was very impressed with the atmosphere, food and service we received from the Staff and Owners of The Star. The food was amazing, the atmosphere very cosy and welcoming. The Owners and Staff couldn’t do enough to...

Having visited under previous ownership I wasn't overly impressed with this place, but the new owners have done an excellent job. The friendly and helpful character of the owner, the clean, well kept indoors and out make this a great place to visit often. So......

The staff were incredibly flexible and accommodated our large group. Everyone was delighted with their meals but the roasts seemed the most popular. Deserts were the highlight for me. Great selection of alcohol free beers and cider. Gorgeous location. Would love to come back in Winter and sit in front of the fire.

Called last orders at 9:30pm, started turning the lights off before 10pm, told us to leave ( quite abruptly and in a stern way) at 10pm. There were 6 of us older men been there since 7:30 drinking, and meet monthly in the same place. Not a hospitable way to treat regulars/locals.

We hadn’t visited for several years and were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food and excellent service. We had a delicious lunch that was served quickly,was well presented and delicious. Friendly, helpful staff. We shall return Carol,Tom and Ruth

Enjoyed a fantastic Sunday lunch here . Perfect ale , perfect service. Will come back very soon .

I'm not one to leave negative reviews but we were very disappointed by this afternoon’s visit. The waitresses, as usual were attentive and smiley. We were sat in the cwtch but had to go sit outside as all we could hear was a man in the kitchen shouting and swearing at the young staff. I feel this atmosphere was very tense and the food was ok but not worth the money we paid. We have been to the restaurant many times over the years and feel very let down by todays experience. Sorry to leave negative review but I felt it necessary. Regards Mr Williams.

Excellent meal with the family. Place looks fantastic after the refurbishment and the food was really good. Great service and a very welcoming team. We’ll be back again soon Pob lwc i chi!

Wow! What a place! A warm welcome and great food. The setting is simply beautiful. Visited for my husbands 50th birthday. Can't wait to visit in the cooler months with all yhe cosy fires

Everything was perfect! Services was really good, staff were lovely and most importantly food was amazing!! Highly recommend

My family went for lunch on a quiet Thursday in June. Their customer service was spectacular. They were attentive and made great recommendations for ale and desserts. I had a local ale called Butty Bach that was delicious and refreshing. They have children food options,...

Came for a family meal. Staff were very pleasant and welcoming. Accommodated all of our needs. Very well presented and a lovely seating area outside with lovely views. Great food. Will definitely be returning 🙂

We visited The Star on the Hill for a birthday lunch today, making a late booking yesterday after being let down by another venue, and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. We made the most of the nice...

My family went for lunch on a quiet Thursday in June. Their customer service was spectacular. They were attentive and made great recommendations for ale and desserts. I had a local ale called Butty Bach that was delicious and refreshing. They have children food options, which were good for my 2 picky eaters. We all had toffee pudding for the first time and can highly recommend trying it. Outside dining was nice due to the pleasant weather and views of the countryside. I had the daily special of sea bass that was delicious.

This is a lovely pub great staff and atmosphere. Had booked for a meal unfortunately they had an electrical issue. I had so many missed calls as they tried to get hold of me. Could not have asked for more. Well done we will be...

I booked for food over 3 weeks ago, I travelled for 40 minutes to get here only to be told there’s an electrical issue in the kitchen and all they can offer is King Prawn Salad. Now I don’t usually leave bad reviews but I...

Amazing hidden gem, fantastic food, staff and location, highly recommend 👌

Was at a wonderful wedding lunch there today, superb venue, delicious food, and people that made it all a great day.

A lovely evening out, would definitely recommend. Amazing food and very friendly, welcoming staff.

Unfortunately, as a vegetarian, the choice at Sunday lunch was very limited. Chicken, lamb and beef options but no vegetarian Sunday roast option. In the end we had cauliflower cheese with roast veg but as a veggie I feel a bit let down. To not have an option in this day and age, when vegetarianism and veganism is very popular, with every other pub/restaurant offering something, seems like an oversight. This is a shame as we ate here last year for our anniversary and it was amazing. A five star meal - the best bread and butter pudding I've ever had. The staff are friendly and it is a lovely location, also the sticky toffee pudding was delicious. Shame about the roast.

Had a wonderful dinner . Staff very attentive, friendly and accommodating . Wonderful food in beautiful surroundings . I sat outside due to it being a sunny evening . Definitely will be back . Compliments to the chef , Angus and the beautiful happy smiley...

We used to visit this place under the previous owner Adam, it had a great vibe and awesome food. We visited just this week and hoped for something good but we’re sadly disappointed. The food was back to being just normal pub fare, the menu...

Visited for a family birthday, everything was perfect… plentiful Gorgeous Food and drinks in a stunning location. Staff were all so friendly and helpful. Took a birthday cake to be brought out which they did for our desert, lit candles and provided cutlery etc, nothing...

Getting family together is tricky at the best of times but this pub delivered on all fronts today. The youngest in the group is aged 10 and the eldest 70 something, so the front of house, manager and chef should all take credit for delivering...

Definitely recommend a visit. Food and service were first rate. Spectacular setting with amazing views. Hosts and staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. Look forward to eating here again.

Sunday lunch was absolutely to die for ,, we ate roast beef and the lamb the food was amazing and also the chef fed our small dog , its our 3rd visit now and there be many more to follow ,,the chef definately needs the...

Absolutely loving place, really warm and friendly welcome from Stephen & Chloe and looked after so well by the polite and attentive staff. My partner and I both had the roast beef which was superb. We chose the Star brownie sundae & sticky toffee pudding...

Had a meal here on a very wet Friday . We were served quickly and food was amazing with great beers & wines . This would be my local if i lived nearer ,but will return when in The Wye Valley again .

What a lovely pub this is ! Took my family here and it didn’t disappoint, food was beautiful and the atmosphere was so welcoming Thankyou so much

Amazing food, attentive hosts, lovely atmosphere and beautiful views. Great wine and beer too of course 🙂 couldn't recommend it more highly.

Warm, friendly, beautiful location, delicious food - and lovely light restaurant. Brilliant staff - such a beautiful pub.

This is a real gem of a country inn. It is very welcoming and the atmosphere is cosy. We had a great meal there sitting next to the fire. This is without a doubt the best place to eat, or meet friends in the area.

A fabulous Sunday lunch was enjoyed by all 18 of us to celebrate a family birthday ! Service , staff and food was definitely 5 star ! Can’t wait to visit again soon

18 of us visited for Sunday lunch it was our first visit and definitely won’t be our last! The food was amazing and such a beautiful setting with lovely friendly staff One of the best Sunday lunches I’ve ever had. Thank you!

Friendly welcome ... Great food ....lovely location

Friendly service and a wicked outback location!

What a difference since the new owners have taken over. Fabulous warm welcome and it’s been recently renovated beautifully. Traditional with a hint of modern. Stephen and Chloe can’t do enough and always have a friendly smile and a chatty welcome. The food we had...

What a fabulous place.. such a warm welcome when we arrived (Andy was super helpful!) and the atmosphere was lovely and the decor beautiful.. lovely open fire was very welcoming, so we quickly felt very relaxed. We decided to stay for dinner and were very...

Absolutely Amazing food , fabulous staff , so welcoming and friendly. Definitely worth a visit. Had a great night. The draught lager was perfect best pint we’ve had in a long time. You can tell they have worked hard to refurbish the property it looks...

Newly refurbished. Great real country pub ambience with three large fireplaces with roaring log fires. We had a great meal and were made to feel welcome.

Lovely Sunday lunch in a very nice pub with a good selection of ales and wines. Between us we had the beef and pork both excellent. Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Good menu to suit all , vegetarian and vegan. Very busy on a Sunday so booking is advisable. Would definitely recommend.

we had a wonderful experience with the new owners. fabulous environment & atmosphere, top class tasty food, fantastic menu and atmosphere. would highly recommend!

The Star on the Hill has been recently refurbished (March 2023) and is beautiful inside and out. We booked for an evening meal and was given outstanding service throughout by all staff. They were kind, professional, charismatic and thoughtful. The food we were served was absolutely delicious. Everything was presented well, tasty and reasonably priced, especially alongside the excellent service. In fact, the food was so good, I forgot to take any pictures of it! Would definitely recommend eating here.

This welcoming pub has been totally refurbished but the character, for example the original inglenooks and flagstones, have been carefully retained. The homemade soup was the tastiest I have had for a long while and the menu caters for most tastes. The friendly new owners...
