The Three Tuns in Monmouthshire

Brilliant pub we found while waiting for the Castle to open its doors for an evening show. The staff and locals we all super friendly, the beer was great and they had live music in a marquee outside. Brilliant atmosphere and well worth a visit, definitely recommended

What can I say ? An amazing stay !! Rooms spotless , quirky, fab walk in shower , bed very comfortable, clean white sheets n pillows ,the only problem is ,if you have mobility issues like me , there are 29 steps to the rooms , which I personally found hard going ,but my friends didn’t have a problem ,n it’s worth it due to the beautiful rooms !! The staff were absolutely amazing !! Our cases were carried up to our rooms , better than some 4 * corporate hotels !! We absolutely adored the old pub ,full of character, fantastic beer garden ,which is huge , it’s right next to the main car park , n castle …. I have never ever been made so welcomed by the staff n locals … live music sat night was fab !! Great atmosphere, very busy ,but that makes it more enjoyable. Over all we would definitely go back , I’ve been all over the world n this little establishment is up there with the best ,due to staff n rooms .

We popped in here for lunch after visiting the castle. Unfortunately the person taking the food order seemed rather irritated to be taking the order. Despite asking for a sandwich not to have an ingredient it was still included (not wanting to have to deal with the irritated person again I just tried to scrape it out). Chairs and tables were not the best either I’m afraid. Overall unfortunately disappointed.

Welcoming atmosphere, wide range of drinks, freshly cooked homemade food, friendly staff, reasonably priced. A gem 💎

Popped in tonight for a few pints packed to the hilt with all sorts of people and ages, really good atmosphere and buzz enjoyed will visit again Thanks

Ten members of our Walking Group took a chance to have a late lunch in this well established and well positioned Pub very close to Chepstow Castle. A very varied and inspired menu consisting of old favourites and some uncommon dishes. They were very busy but the Staff reacted really well and rapidly served us. I had the trio of sausages and mash which was very tasty and enjoyable. My wife had the Moroccan lamb burger which she gave a 10/10 vote. The remaining members of the Group gave a very favourable response to the food and service. The garden area is also well laid out and popular with both human and canine clients.

We were staying in the B&B so had breakfast here two mornings. Very good breakfast with good meat and nice selection of eggs. Orange juice plus pastries and cereal available in the buffet. Pre-order breakfast the night before

We stumbled across this gorgeous, little pub today. The food was amazing and the staff were lovely. We also loved the fire and feel of the place. We will be back.

Great pub! Lovely bar staff, good selection of beer, and well selected of music! Wednesday night we were given a pen and paper to draw, surprising amounts of people took up the task, it was fun!

We had a cracking, plentiful Sunday lunch here and we we're well looked after too. A good example of real good, honest hospitality.

Amazing Sunday Lunch with three meats, chicken, lamb and beef served with roast potatoes, roast parsnips and fist carrots. Yorkshires (proper ones not Aunt Bessie’s) also a selection of vegetables including cauliflower cheese, red cabbage, more roasties, peas and carrots. Proper gravy too. £28 for two people. Bargain!

Sunday lunch was good, but, wouldn't book again due to the amount of dogs in the pub, eating whilst surrounded by dogs is not pleasant or hygienic, maybe an area without dogs for those of us not wanting a side order of dog hair.

Situated just outside the castle we called in here for lunch before visiting the castle. The bar is quite small with a small dining area to one side. The food was tasty and portions were a decent size. The staff were polite and pleasant. We'll definitely be back when we're in Chepstow again.

Brilliant Sunday lunch. It was total luck we fell on this place, soaking wet after a walk with dog in tow. Warm welcome, dry space to shelter and bonkers lovely Sunday Lunch. 11 out of 10! Don't hesitate to try it out.

We chose the Three Tuns for lunch and an important meeting where we needed somewhere we could eat sit and chat. We all had wonderful lunches leaving 4 clean plates, drinks and coffees. We can't wait to return. The staff were very friendly and reasonable prices too. All in all very impressive.

Wonderful olde world pub it had a garden and served food. We really enjoyed our lunch and the service was good. Really nice atmosphere and would imagine it would be a lovely place to go for a night out too.

This was a lovely place where we enjoyed excellent food at a decent price. The ploughman’s sharing platter was wonderful. The scotch egg and pork pie were amazing and the scotch egg was the biggest I have ever seen. I would definitely go back.

Had a great stay following a day at the races. Really friendly and welcoming staff, great lunch and breakfast and a lovely beer garden to enjoy with views of the castle next door. Lovely old pub with Really comfortable bedroom, fully equipped with everything you need (including a roll top bath). Highly recommend and will happily stay again next time we visit.

Called in here yesterday for s drink , the beer garden us stunning, beautiful surroundings, just at the bottom of Chepstow Castle.

Absolutely amazing rib eye steak lunch! And the setting in the garden was splendid, had some company from a few friendly Robins!

During my visit I noticed a cat on the kitchen work top and food for service being stored all over the the kitchen floor, just aswell I noticed this before being served as I wouldn't of ate my food on arrival. The staff had obvious pin marks on arms from using nicotics and another waitress with a face like thunder and had a personality of a slug, total disgrace

Well you can guess what I had for lunch on our visit, sat in a lovely courtyard garden having a well cooked pie with buttery mash and a pint.

A delightful find! We decided on this place as it was closest to our car park. It turned out that this was a very good choice! The staff were so lovely, we felt super welcome. A great choice of drinks and it was hard to make a decision with the food selection as everything sounded great. 3 of us had the pie, amazing! 1 of us had the burger, amazing! The three kids all really enjoyed their food too, the mash on my son’s meal was rather yummy! If you’re looking for a tasty meal in a cosy pub, this is the place. Enjoy!

We had not booked but COVID details were taken. A friendly pub with an attractive old interior. We shared the fish platter which was wonderful.

Stopped for lunch whilst visiting Chepstow. Lovely fresh food, nice garden and lovely staff. One of the drink where flat and they couldn’t apologise any more. Still talking about the food 8hrs after.

Went in for a few drinks with friends and dogs, very pleasant atmosphere and good staff,we had a great afternoon with lots of laughs and lovely tia Maria and Prosecco indeed , keep twerking girls !

This is my favourite pub in Chepstow. It is in a stunning location, right by the castle. It has a beautiful beer garden with plenty of tables and fragrant flowers. The staff work really hard. They serve my favourite ciders and the menu is extensive. It is dog friendly, they have bands on outside on a Sunday and they have guest rooms.

Attended a wedding reception in May, there is a lovely marquee which was decorated beautifully. The backdrop of the castle was so perfect for photos. The marquee is heated so no one was cold despite the spring temperatures. The staff were so lovely and kept everything running like clockwork. The freshly prepared afternoon tea was outstanding. I don't think I have had nicer lemon drizzle cake ever!! I thoroughly recommend this venue and its wonderful staff, outstanding.

I don't know where to begin. In all the years of staying in hotels this one has to be the worst. Waited 15 mins until i finally got checked in, basically stood outside in the cold, got inside and its warmer outside. No wifi, says they have it, i used 2 devices and found zero networks. There are holes in the wall, cracks in the cieling, the windows may aswell not be there you can see your breathe when u breath. Shower is suitable for anyone under 6 stone and under 5ft. Plus anyone outside can see u through the window. Oh, nearly forgot the TV, You need binoculars or a magnifine glass to watch it from your bed. So basically you freeze to death whilst watching it or don't bother. Would upload pictures but it wouldn't allow me. Last but not least, when u open the door you are literally less than a metre from being on the road which has boy racers driving past most of the night just for good measures.

Despite Mr Drakeford banning the sale of alcohol, this pub was open on a Sunday lunch time and was so friendly, helpful and kind to my family. The food was fabulous, cosy sofas by the fire and really handy for the castle. In 'normal' times I would expect it be be bursting on a Sunday lunch time. All the staff were cheerful, and couldn't do enough, especially with the children. I just wish I lived nearer!

lovely, bubbly staff! always ready to help, the young woman on the bar make everyone in the including me feel very welcome. great beers, great pub, what more could you want.

In Sept 20 We took a delicious fish and chip lunch in the busy pub garden with great views of the Castle and River Wye, our food and drinks were served promptly and pleasantly and the cost was very reasonable.

Sunday Roast Superb value for money, good portions well cooked, comes with all the trimmings, also partner had the home made soup (carrot & coriander) which she said was the best, we both had pudding plus a couple of drinks each for under 35 quid, can't beat it locally.

Had a fabulous Sunday roast here - generous and beautifully cooked. Local beer was excellent and cheap, and the staff were lovely. Great pub experience in a beautiful setting.

What a shame. This once fantastic place has become a real disgrace. Rules change daily but there are ways to talk to people. Screaming at people for not wearing a mask when entering is not going to win any more visits especially when everyone is sat there without one !Just be polite not scream. Will not be sending anyone more !!

Great traditional pub with a fabulous beer garden. Good selection of food. Dog friendly staff who are really polite and helpful. Attracts a great variety of interesting customers

We loved the Three Tuns! A 'real' pub, with no airs and graces. They serve a great range of local beers at a very reasonable price per pint. They don't serve food in the evenings, but they do at lunchtimes and we highly recommend the local butcher's Scotch egg as a snack! Other proper dinners being served up looked delicious.

We stopped here for a drink. It is Covid secure with an open canopy to keep the rain from the outside tables. Great views of the castle whilst you are sitting. A large car park is next door with clean council run toilets. Who can complain at £3/pint.

lot of original/old parts left in this building. good location for castle and river well worth a stop off

COVID stuff - paper menus, markings on floor for one way system, signs to turn on door to make toilets one person at a time, lots of outdoor covered seating as well as socially distanced tables inside.On a more interesting note... food was very tasty, good range of draft beers, friendly service. Recommend.

Friendly and welcoming service. Tasty homemade food, fabulous beer and great location for exploring the castle.

Really love this place came on it by chance but been several times love the food especially the Ham/Salad sandwich but all food and service excellent lovely garden not fancy but adequate will be back

We were made welcome and enjoyed some excellent sandwiches - I recommend the cheddar cheese and pickle. It was warm and the people at the bar were friendly and helpful.

This is a wonderful hotel and great value for money. The building is very old and packed full of character. The hosts are fantastic, friendly and so helpful.

Just in the hurry before Xmas we dropped in (together with our dog!) and found a good pub with character who were serving lunchtime food We were served quickly and had a very tasty meal The location was just next to the Castle Car park so it was no distance at all to travel

Great night here on Saturday, absolutely packed out and hard to get a seat! Happy helpful staff and not bad drink prices..

Na het bezoek aan het kasteel zochten wij een gelegenheid om iets te eten. Three Tuns ligt vlak bij het kasteel met een mooi terras dat uitzicht biedt op het kasteel. De bediening was een beetje raar maar wel snel. De sandwiches waren lekker en veel tonijn en kaas er tussen. Goede bak koffie of thee. Het was er druk ook met plaatselijke bevolking terwijl de omringende zaken leeg waren dus blijkbaar een bekende zaak. Leuke zaak, goed eten.

It is a quirky pub. Low ceiling. Decently kept ales and their lunch-time Torpedoes (think hot dog/baguette bap) well filled, freshly prepared - my veggie tikka was lovely & moist. Sensible prices and looked like a good range of menu if you were more hungry. The outside tables are a bit hap-hazard but with enough shade. Sited next to Tourist Information Centre & paying busy car-park. Will definitely try it again

This property is a pub with character and the room was quirky with a sloping floor but this added to the character. The pub has a great selection of beers and is in a fantastic location right next to the castle and a short walk into the town. I didn’t find the bed particularly comfortable but this was mainly due I think to the sloping floor. Also there was a quiz night on at the pub so we got a bit of noise from that in our room until it had finished, however I’m not complaining about that as we were staying in a pub and they are running a business.

Het gebouw bestaat vanaf begin 1600 en heeft altijd een horecafunctie gehad. Momenteel herbergt het een PUB met een paar kamers. Heel sfeervol, met beperkte voorzieningen. Alles is wel aanwezig (soms recent verbouwd), maar niet luxe of modern.In de weekenden is er levende muziek, iets waar je wel rekening mee moet houden. Het pand is nogal gehorig.

Booked for one night, great location, beware you park in a payment car park, but free on a Sunday. Booked in, they took payment and took me to the room, the young lady opened the room and was shocked to find someone else had been put in there. I booked back in December specifically requesting a double room and bath. They told me to come back in 30 mins.I returned, dealt with by a different person, they asked for payment, I explained I’d paid, he started to say that booking online doesn’t take payment etc etc, I explained I paid 30 mins ago and showed the receipt. He took us to the room, explaining the need to know stuff as we went, which was good. We were then let in to a twin room, not the one I was shown, I then asked why we weren’t getting the original room, poor lad had no idea of the issue. He did his best, but it took over a hour to sort out as the people had to be called to return and move their things. The noise outside the pub was horrendous, the people leaving had no respect for the neighbours, we didn’t get to sleep until after 0100. The pluses, great breakfast, lovely 17th century style room and a fabulous bath.

Lovely quirky pub at the entrance to the castle. We wanted a meal before we went in to the castle for an evening concert. We ordered some drinks and then asked for a menu to be told they don't do evening meals. Was completely shocked that a pub so near the castle with the 2 week Rock the Castle festival going on and in the height of tourist season didn't do meals. Drank up quickly and left.

Great place next to the car park for the castle. Lovely outside seating with views up to the castle. Jacket potatoes were great as was the pie. Don't walk any further! Easy, convient and tasty Food!

Ideal Assessible room which is at the front of the hotel, is spacious with tea, coffee and biscuits provided. Shower room is quite small but adequate for medium sized persons.

Lovely cozy pub close to Chepstow Castle entrance. Excellent lunch time menu. Staff happily accommodated when asked for non menu item. Dog friendly. Recommended!

Stopped in for lunch. Pub is very welcoming and food was tasty-best fried fish I'd had during my week in England. Prices reasonable. Apple crumble was apparently pretty good! He wasnt open to sharing so I only got a "taste" 😉

This is a lovely little pub, the food is always good and always hot, drinks are average price so it doesnt make your visit too expensive, i had moo pie, chips and mushy peas, was lovely as always.

Went in for a couple of drinks on a Saturday evening , fairly early on.

Chepstow the beautiful row. On the edge of Sth Wales this lovely Inn provides a varied me use with a wonderful choice of beers and wines. All drink and food delivered by happy, friendly staff. Excellent wine and beer, delicious food freshly made to choice.

We visited Chepstow from our base in the Forest of Dean and found the Three Tuns at the side of the Car park. It is Dog Friendly with charm and character, tastefully modernised, serving excellent real ales and good food.

After visiting the castle decided to have lunch here, as it is right next to Chepstow castle. Had the ploughman sandwich. It was a very good meal. Service was very nice and fast.

Popped in for lunch. Not busy, but service from the barmaid (landlady?) was poor. She appeared to be more interested in sending a colleague out to Tesco for 'stock' rather than taking my order. This resulted in the order being wrong when our food arrived. This was rectified by another staff member.

I wasn't expecting much from this pub but we had a really good experience here with my elderly parents. We came via the back entrance which was easily accessible for my inform mother. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We had three prawn baguettes in a mayo and sweet chilli dressing and they were lovely.

I found this pub about 3 weeks ago, purely by chance, when out with a friend and we thought it was lovely. Friendly welcome, busy on a Monday lunchtime and specializing in pies and mash. The pies a superb, and not a fan of mash they were happy to do me chips. So why slightly disappointing? Well based on this experience I returned with some of my visiting family yesterday. The young lady front of house was very welcoming and helpful, and the pies were just as good, again it was busy and clearly popular with locals. My issue was with the chef. I think she heard me saying to my son that they were happy to substitute chips for mash and he heard her say she was not doing it. Had I been aware I may have chosen a different dish or maybe gone for a different eating venue. However as I had not heard I asked my son to order me the Moo Pie but with chips which he tried to do, and the helpful lady on the bar put this request to the chef, who refused. This gets better. My son therefore ordered a side of chips and asked for that to be put on my plate instead of the mash - which they obligingly did, and charged us for the privilege - adding the side of chips to the bill, ironically not discounted for the lack of mash. I can't help but feel this attitude was unaccommodating and somewhat mean spirited. So would I recommend this place if you are a fan of pie AND MASH. Yes I would and my family really enjoyed it. However for me sadly I doubt I will not return again on future visits to Chepstow.

Limited sandwiches.Had a large baguette crammed with grated cheddar and pickle.Lettuce had seen better days but rest of salad was fine.Good value and nice interior however the loos smelt,no soap and broken wc seat.

Comfortable, friendly and plenty of drink choices from beer to cider plus nibbles to enjoy..What more could you ask for?

Drove from Wiltshire with my family on a recommendation for Sunday lunch before visiting Tintern Abbey. This pub is one of the best I have ever visited. The Sunday lunch was excellent and good value. The landlord was friendly as were the bar and waiting staff. The atmosphere was informal and sociable. The locals, including one or two colourful characters were conversational, despite me being unknown there, and they were full of praise for the venue. This pub is well worthy of a visit if you are in the area, and is actually worth going out of you way for.

My wife and I decided to make use of the mild weather and we stayed for a weekend walking in the Wye Valley. The Three Tuns is a lovely little pub/guest house. We found that the rooms are comfortable and spotlessly clean.

We were so impressed with this really quaint and brilliantly renovated hotel, right next to the castle and a beautiful setting. Our room was very cleverly decorated and we loved the whole antique look of every part of it - very friendly staff and a freshly cooked breakfast as well - would definitely stay here again and have a look around the village - highly recommend

A lovely three night stay in quaint, rustic rooms, very friendly and helpful staff, great breakfasts. Nice pub, excellent ales and beer garden, good location near the river and castle and town centre. The rooms have old timbered warped and creaky floors but very cosy. Tiny bathroom but the shower is extremely powerful and hot. The restaurant only serves lunch, no dinner. I was able to store my luggage there while I walked the South Wales coast path.

Books to peruse in right hand side room through front door. Piano in there along with some books to read & games to play.

This is a pub with rooms upstairs. Other than breakfast, I did not eat there, so I cannot comment on the food. The staff is very friendly & accommodating. They were the only plus. The rooms are above the pub & are extremely noisy. A sign said they have live music on Friday & Saturday nights. I wasn't there at that time, but I would hate to imagine the noise level.

After a visit to the castle we went to the Three Tuns for lunch. We were a bit later than we expected but still found a table for 4. The staff said there would be a 30 minute wait for food - and that was just about right. I liked the way they were upfront about this.

We popped in here as a large group of 12 plus a dog on a rainy Sunday lunch time. We were lucky to find several free tables and ordered a selection of food. The pies were delicious as were the chips. Our dog was also welcomed and offered a great which was great. The place had a nice welcoming atmosphere.

After the underwhelming experience at The Boat, we ventured to The Three Tuns for lunch and had a very good time. We selected one of the most popular dishes and were very pleased with the quality and value for money. There was a very nice selection of ales and the service and warmth from the bar staff impressive.

Had lunch here in garden at rear. Excellent selection of beer, including Belgian White (favorite of the wife). Food menu creative and with a sense of humour and food good too. Many locals there also enjoying it all.

We had struggled to find a dog friendly place and even tourist information were not a lot of help. Anyway we discovered this place and we are really pleased we did. Not only did they make our dog very welcome we had a fantastic meal. We both had a pie one was chicken & ham pie the other a chilli con can pie. Washed down with cider & ale.

Situated beneath the magnificent castle with a shabby chic decor gives this pub some real charm. However the menu is limited and unfortunately we chose badly with both of us having the fish and chips. This took an age to come and then looked like it had come from a ‘Captain’s Birdseye’ commercial. It was quite tasty and a special mention has to go the mushy peas which were delicious but it was all too uniform. The side salad didn’t look any better with a superfluous orange slice on top.

This pub at the foot of Chepstow Castle serves a great, traditional pub lunch (fish and chips, pies and mash, ploughman's, torpedos, etc). I was with a group of about a dozen and all of our orders were taken quickly and served promptly, and everyone seemed to enjoy their meals. Very friendly and accommodating staff!

This is a gorgeous little hidden gem of a pub at the bottom of Chepstow.

Great atmospheric pub. Always a good range of local ales. Gets pretty busy every Saturday night with a good natured crowd (of grown ups) and a succession of really neat local blues and rock bands. They usually have bands in the beer garden on Sunday afternoons during the Summer. Staff are friendly and efficient. One of the best pubs in Cheppers IMHO.

We landed here by accident... but that's a much longer story! We had a nice little lunch with a view of the castle. We also enjoyed the company of the folks on both sides of the bar. Worth a visit to get a taste of this part of the country.

I visited here with 4 friends and we sat outside in the beer garden in the warm, sunny air and it was lovely. I didn't eat here but we drank and socilaised outside and it was lovely.

We found this pub as its very near the castle in chepstow. We had a lovely pub meal and could thoughly recommend the pies. Chips were amazing as were the minted mushy peas

Great lunch menu. Not open for dinner which is a shame. Recommend the sharing platter. Free parking and wifi. Dog friendly bar. very helpful staff

We went there after visiting the castle. It’s a nice pub with good pies. Service is friendly and the garden area very nice and quiet

Stayed here last night (Saturday 26 May). There was a great live band, atmospheric bar, quirky bedrooms and the staff and proprietor were lovely and could not be faulted. Really nice selection of local food, ciders and the breakfast was tasty. Due to its location we also found this to be great place to stay if visiting Tintern Abbey, Forest of Dean or Chepstow Racecourse. We will definitely be returning this summer.

Myself and friends went here to be confronted by the rudest man I / we have ever met barman / believed to be Landlord aggressive and unstable (curly hair guy in his 60's or 70's). The pub went quiet when we went in with very...

What fantastic food, I had the Chicken and leek pie ( amazing pastry ) and went for chips instead of mash was I so glad I did, the chips had grooves in them and so crisp and hot you could dip them in your gravy ( that came in a separate gravy boat ) and it filled it up. my husband had the sausage and mash, 3 fabulous sausages and the mash had plenty of butter in it that made it the best mashed potatoes ever. Very friendly staff and dog friendly.

A nice old fashioned pub with a good selection of beers. We both had pies which are homemade and are served with buttery mash, gravy and minted mushy peas. Good home style cooking. Pork pies and scotch eggs etc. were available at the bar. Friendly staff. Area to sit outside and right next to the Castle and car park.

Great beer selection, great atmosphere, friendly staff, great beer garden and it's completely dog friendly! We still need to try...

I stayed for one night and regretted not having the time to stay longer. Such helpful staff, Lauren the manager, Charlie & Jade in the bar. So helpful in finding taxis to take me to my various destinations. This establishment is from the 17th century with many original features. My room was a delight, very clean, lots of tea, coffee & snacks in the complimentary basket. Brilliant water pressure for a hot shower. The bar is full of regulars who drew me to their banter and embrace. Loved it, wished I could have stayed longer
