Tides Kitchen and Wine Bar in Pembrokeshire

We had a wonderful lunch at Tides today. Lovely to sit outside on the patio in such picturesque surroundings. The staff are really warm and friendly. Our two chihuahuas were made to feel very welcome. Thank you! Definitely some of the best seafood we have eaten - all beautifully cooked. The tempura prawns in particular were spectacular - fragrant, a lovely crisp batter, and prawns perfectly cooked. Good thing we’re only here on holiday or we would be back every day! Will definitely have to pick up another divine cinnamon bun before we head home!

Absolute gem of a restaurant- worth the 5 hour drive alone! Wish it was closer. Local lobster was delicious and in a large party didn’t hear one negative comment.

No no veggie vegan food not a good expiry too much fish

Food that you could never cook yourself. A real treat, definitely be back again 😍

Excellent ciusine. Intimate setting. Lovely staff. The place to go for a special occasion or an adult evening out. Booking recommended but they will accommodate walk ins space permitting.

Well, what can I say?? FANTASTIC! We came for lunch first and honestly could have had everything on the menu! After having a glance at the evening menu we knew we had to come back. The evening was wonderful, we came with friends and everyone loved it! The food was cooked to perfection, lots of yummy veg with all the mains and a wonderful choice of starters and desserts! The staff were wonderful and very welcoming. One of our friends were vegetarian which we had forgotten to say at point of booking but they catered to our needs with a big smile on their faces! I really could not recommend this beautiful restaurant enough. Stunning food, beautiful setting and wonderful staff! I would give this place 10 stars if I could!

This was the priciest meal I had in Wales and sadly the worst food, it is prix fix menu. Menu *didn’t mention* the scallops app would have curry sauce on them. The pesto lobster was dry and about 5 bites of food for a main. No way to treat seafood. Overworked and very sad. Service was perfunctory. Tab was 57 pounds. It was like a nightmare.

A great meal in an informal atmosphere, loved it!

The food was the best we have had in a long time, compliments to the chef.The service was excellent and the waitress were really friendly and helpful. A very popular restaurant, recommend you book a table.

Exquisite food. Lovely atmosphere. We had a wonderful evening. Great wine list. And the best dessert I've ever had! Can't recommend this place enough!

Spent an enjoyable evening with friends here . Delicious meal and exceptionally pleasant staff . Will definitely return . Diolch yn fawr

Visited Tides whilst staying in Newport for the weekend.So glad we had booked in advance…it’s a very popular place to eat ….and you can see why .it’s a fixed price menu £55 for 3 courses including an amuse bouche …. Not cheap but worth every penny …we had Thai salmon fish cakes as a little appetiser with lovely sourdough bread and bacon butter …delicious.My husband also opted for some oysters which are extra but were beautifully fresh .we then had scallops and calamari followed by lobster and sea bass …all delightful..A lovely selection of local cheeses ended our meal …Absolutely fabulous..

Had a wonderful meal at Tides. We had these delicious salmon fish cakes to start followed by homemade sourdough. The scallops starter was out of this world full of flavour and perfect amount for a starter. I had a beautiful sea bass fillet with crispy cockles and a wonderful sauce. The girls was attentive and extremely welcoming. Can’t wait to visit tides again. Two courses are £47 with 3 coming in at £55 but amuse bouche & the fantastic bread course make it value for money for a fine dining experience. Well worth a visit if you’re lucky enough to get a table. Book early!

Simply beautiful. If you love seafood this is for you. Everyrhing we ordered was presented immaculately, the taste was divine. The oysters were amazing This place is a real gem. Staff are attentive, friendly and welcoming. Highly recomend.

Lovely place , great food , but would not re visit … it’s far too expensive for the good you get 2course meal £47 … 1st course I chose scallop with hake as my main course …. ONE SCALLOP CUT INTO 4 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ are you having a laugh … makes the main course a ridiculous price …. For the amount of food you get it should have been £30 maximum Shame on you

The food was good but that is only a limited part of dining out, the rest of the experience was deflating and negative. We had tried to call to book several times with no answer so we took the time to personally call in and book. We arrived a few weeks later to blank faces. Our booking was not in the diary. The response from the manager was “Ohhh, well we will have to do it” to the other staff in front of us. Nice response to make one feel special!!!! We were then told to phone in the future and to do so in the evening next time to book rather then call in!!!! We were then taken to a table. The server returned and said they would need the table by a certain time or if not then she would need to find another table for the next customers. Feeling special once again!!!! Food was OK, even good but the experience was awful. We had really been looking forward to going, having tried damned hard to book several times. It was supposed to be a lovely special, relaxed birthday meal. We left as soon as we finished our main course. Won’t be returning. Such a shame, as locals and holiday cottage owners we hoped to have a fabulous place to frequent and find somewhere to recommend to guests who come and stay at our properties.

Truly delicious food, fantastic intimate atmosphere. Worth every penny!

This is a near perfect seafood restaurant with a few non-fish options. The service (by the all female crew) and the food (by the female chef) were outstanding and the price reasonable. I’m sure it’s not perfect but I can’t immediately think what I would change. An excellent meal at a reasonable price in attractive surroundings. Strongly recommended.

We stopped for some lunch and had the Hot Lobster Roll which was on the specials board and the Monkfish KFC Burger, friendly staff and lovely food 🤌🏼

A lovely little restaurant. You can order small plates which we did and it was really good. You can also buy fresh fish here.

Great little place serving excellent food and wine, I had the prawn special and the tuna salad special both excellent, fish and chips we're excellent too, very impressive.

Menu sounded right up my street to begin with. Bouche was more like a canapé and at £47 for 2 courses I was expecting something a little more exciting than a chip with curry sauce. For starter I had tuna tataki with a dipping sauce, it was good but nothing special and was lacking something else on the plate. The main was the best course, a portion of juicy bass, heritage tomatoes and crab butter. Again a very small portion, great flavour & was very summery. New potatoes & greens were seasoned well but lacked imagination for the price we paid. Over all I’d come back but would hope the portions / price are a little more value for money next time. Has a lot of potential.

Fabulous menu, attentive service, couldn't wish for a nicer dining experience in this wonderful town.

Lovely casual restaurant where you are welcomed by simply lovely staff. Delicious tasty food. The Hake was cooked to perfection.

Exquisite fish- elegant meal, worth the expense. You must book ahead to eat here as menus are carefully planned. The fish melted in my mouth.

Small restaurant in the very pretty town of Newport. Staff were friendly and atmosphere was relaxed. Food beautifully presented and delicious.

We had the most delicious sea food meal in this small intimate restaurant. It was a real treat, super flavours and good wine.

As good as it gets in Newport. Service is fabulous and a menu to match. A must visit if you are in the vicinity

We had a fabulous three course meal here on Wednesday evening. Gluten free catered for very well. Starters were delicious and really interesting, as were the mains. Expensive but decent portions and fantastic flavours. The menu had quite a lot of Asian influences on it...

We had a delicious meal here and really friendly service. From the lovely amuse bouche to the most amazing crusty bread with delicious marmite and cheddar butters to small but perfect starters. The only thing we would improve would be the side dish (just plain boiled/steamed potatoes & veg), which was the same for everyone and didn’t really go well with one of our delicious mains, the monkfish & crab curry. A definite 5 star treat if sides were tailored to the each dish!

Popped in on spec and we were lucky enough to get a table for two as there had been a no show. A warm thank you to the people that missed a fabulous dining experience. This place looks like a tea shop on the outside...

A charming seafood kitchen, serving a delicious variety of dishes. We enjoyed the fish and chips, monkfish burger, caramelised leek, onion and potato tart and the lobster roll. The service was efficient and friendly. Would definitely go again.

Soup and sandwich very filling. Try the homemade sausage roll. Clearly this chef really cares about good food. Dogs welcome.

Having heard good things about Tides, managed to find a table on what I think was the final sitting of their Christmas and New Year opening weeks; this, a Saturday evening in early January. It was an absolutely spectacular meal - both in terms of...

Best place to eat in Pembrokeshire by far !! We visited this little gem for our anniversary and we had more than we expected from attentive staff to outstanding food the vegetables were all organic and grown locally and the lobster was beautiful .My husband...

Was very disappointed with this restaurant. The reviews looked great which is why we booked it. Meals were sparse for the price and lobster was overcooked.

We visited Tides for the first time, as a result of a weekend away in West Wales. The reviews were excellent so we decided to give it a go. The experience was fantastic from the moment we arrived. As you would expect the menu is...

The food and service at this restaurant were faultless, many thanks for making our anniversary meal special. Fine dining at its best!

Yet another fantastic meal out in Newport courtesy of Emma, Lydia and the team at Tides. I cannot fault a single thing - everything is just delightful from the cosy, bistro-style atmosphere, friendly and efficient service to the mouthwatering food that is second-to-none. Tides is...

Really lovely dinner at Tides. They were very kind to our two small children, and the food was delicious.

We had fantastic meals, I had the tuna to start and the lobster for main and to be fair every meal was divine. Its £45 for 2 courses so a little expensive but well worth it if you can afford it. Will be back for...

Wonderful evening of lobster and fish, served beautifully with a few suprises before which were most welcome. Relaxed and informal dining. Used the deli during the day for cakes and wonderful sour dough

Just about as good as restaurants get. Fabulous, imaginative seafood, excellent wines (the Albarino is stunning) and charming staff.

One of the best (3 course) meals we've ever eaten. We were very lucky to get a table last minute & will definitely book in advance next time we're in the area. The scallops, crab & lobster were all superb.

We went for an anniversary dinner. We are both vegetarian and we were greeted with the vegetarian menu. Ok, no choice of main course or starter, but with bang bang cauliflower to start and an overgenerous pasta dish with beautifully cooked veg I am not...

Called in for lunch, on the way home from Aberaeron. Lovely little restaurant, well appointed, also having a takeaway area for fresh fish and baked goods. Service was efficient and friendly, and the fish and chips plus lobster roll were delicious! The cakes we brought...

Gorgeous food with subtle flavours, excellent wine selection, lovely staff. Such a great atmosphere too. Would recommend to anyone who is staying locally.

Spending a very enjoyable stay near Newport & booked this last minute. You normally have to book well in advance so we were lucky. I started wit the chicken followed by a juicy steak. Chocolate fondant to finish with. A very nice meal out with...

Fantastic restaurant that offers an unpretentious fine dining experience. We thoroughly enjoyed the excellent fresh seafood and reasonably priced wine menu. Will 100% be visiting again if we are in the area.

Some friends invited us for a meal. Just loved the food, really tasty, good service and a good wine list. We had a meal a few weeks ago at Rick Steins in Marlborough and this was heads and shoulders above what we had. Yes it's quite pricey but food was worth it.

Excellent tasty food. Presented very well and great friendly service. The selection of fish dishes both as starters and main courses was really good and varied. Not cheap at £42 for two courses.

Best and freshest food in Newport Pembs.

Very high quality food w/ excellent presentation. A bit on the pricey end at £50 for three courses. Good and reasonably priced wine list.

Absolutely loved our dinner here last night. Every mouthful was a delicious and the staff were very courteous and attentive.

We have just had yet another great meal, great evening in this gem of a local restaurant. Fabulous locally sourced ingredients cooked to perfection. Excellent service by Sam, she's an intelligent, informed server who points you to exactly what you'll enjoy for a great meal...

That fish and chips was delicious

Fantastic food which was excellent quality and well presented. Attention to detail was first class with thoughtful touches, especially for one of our party who has dietary requirements. Staff were helpful and attentive. The only thing is we wish we lived closer!

Great service and absolutely beautiful food!

Fantastic meal, service and setting. Really thought through. Had to book one month in advance! Reasonable, and some scrumptious surprises. A real event!

Spectacular food for every course and few treats in between. A must for any visitor to Newport, but make sure you reserve a table well in advance as the place is quite small.

Superb. A must for any visitor to Newport.

This place is just amazing. Absolutely delicious food with lovely little extras like the amuse-bouche cheese and onion tartlets and home made sourdough bread. The evening was faultless from beginning to end.

The most expensive ham sandwich ever.. would have loved a bit of salad with it.. and mustard.. (they had no mustard) !!

What can I say!! Personality Vacuum, Welcoming attitude, Food available for vegetarians extremely poor to say the least. We asked at the door were there seats available we were pointed to an unfinished cleared table. On this up to date site we were told that masks are to be worn and tables sanitised neither was this correct at no time were we told to put any type of mask on. We asked if there was any type of vegetarian options were available, not one thing in the counter was suitable for us, even though there were chefs behind the counter waiting for orders. Very poor to say the least as this was 1pm..... lunch time!! I don't know where the pictures on the site have come from bit it was definitely not at this particular eatery/bar/restaurant. I am not one for putting in poor results but this was disappointing at best.

Absolutely loved this unassuming little restaurant. You wouldn't think it by looking from the outside as it looks more like a cafe than a restaurant but I don't think I've ever had such an incredible meal. We went on a long awaited date night and...

This has got to be the go-to restaurant in Newport. Specialising in seafood is certainly what it does. The food was incredible and gave us flavour combinations we hadn’t thought of. All the food was amazingly fresh, and beautifully cared for when cooked. The staff...

Exceptional Food and service served up by super friendly staff. A must visit for anyone living or visiting Pembrokeshire

Went for dinner here last night and totally shocked to come on to write a review only to find the one before this by someone with similar name to me but totally the opposite experience!! Staff were super friendly and attentive, they even took a...

I don't usually like KFC and chicken wings but it was pretty good

The owners were rude, told me they "didn't care about visitors" and to "f off back to my house in chelsea"

We bought seafood here in July 2021 during our stay in a cottage in Moylgrove. Bought a live lobster a live crab and a huge sea bass for 50.- all was superb i cooked three evening meals from this all superb quality.

Highly recommend this restaurant. The food was exceptional and the service excellent. Can't wait to visit again

Our experience of dinner in this restaurant was first class. The staff are attentive and knowledgeable. The dishes are beautifully presented and cooked with flair, a light touch and imagination. I particularly liked the subtle use of spices with the fish. My starter of scallops...

Stayed in Newport as covid restrictions lifted. Although there was no indoor seating, there was opportunity to take away. We preordered a whole sea bass which was beautifully prepared with butter, fresh herbs, lemon and wine all wrapped in foil. Back home we popped it...

Amazing produce, fabulous fresh bread.

We visited Tides during December 2020. They offer a wide selection of food to takeaway, or eat in and have a wonderful fresh fish counter. On this occasion, we sampled the sausage rolls, brownies and espresso cake (WOW). It all tasted delicious and it was...

Tides pies are scrumptiously delicious, they are the most tastiest pies we’ve ever had. We had a lovely Xmas Eve experience collecting our take away brunch, and the staff kept the experience festive by offering mulled wine and mince pies, chocolate brownies for me. Mustn’t...

Food was absolutely lovely and the atmosphere friendly and relaxed. Would definitely recommend Tides. Ardderchog.

lovely home made food. We enjoyed sitting outside watching the comings and goings in the delightful town. Next time we will order a picnic to take away too

Called in, yesterday morning for a few bits for a picnic!! The home made pies are delicious and the little french baton super with the home made pate!! Definitely go again

If you are anywhere near Newport in Pembrokeshire check out Tides. As other reviews testify normally an excellent restaurant and wine bar but due to Covid now running the most excellent bakery and fresh shell fish and fish counter. Simply the the best dressed crab...

Incredibly crafted pasties and sausage rolls! And lovely deli.

The highlight of my week is going on a big bike ride and stopping at Tides To Go for a delicious pasty and sweet treat! The pasties are packed full of filling and the cakes are so tasty and fresh! They also have a really...

Had a fantastic meal here on Friday for my husband’s 50th birthday! My husband is dairy intolerant and the lady that served us made sure everything he chose was suitable for him and made us all feel very welcome. Lovely atmosphere and food and staff were fantastic. Will definitely be back the next time we are down in the area. Thanks again!!

I love this place. Lovely home made bread... even better home made toasted tea cakes and the best marmalade I've ever tasted. The coffee is good too. Owner is charming

Our third visit to our favourite restaurant outside of London. We booked for Fish & Fizz on their opening night after their winter break. The chef has obviously come back refreshed & inspired with a great choice of new dishes. The fish here is always cooked to perfection & is so worthy of all the amazing reviews. Try the scallops with a buttery curry sauce & crispy chicken skin, it’ extremely tasty! For mains we had hake with a warm tartare sauce & crispy cockles & plaice beautifully roasted on the bone with a rich peppercorn sauce. Great wine list. Perfection in the heart of Newport & busy even in February. Looking forward to returning at Easter. Well done team Tides.

We sadly had to cancel our New Year's Eve dinner at Tides Kitchen - booked in November - owing to wife's toothache, but they kindly accepted a fresh reservation from us a few days later. What a wonderful place: bright and woody interior with well-spaced tables. They had prepared the right table for my wife's wheelchair. We chose wild mushroom arancini and scallops with chicken lollipops to start. The arancini were the real deal, with the porcini flavour shining through beneath the crunch, but the scallops and chicken were quite simply a taste revelation. Scallops were so fresh and perfectly cooked, still just translucent, chicken tender and succulent, the two contrasting ingredients skilfully bound together in a smoky, tangy sauce. For the mains, we had crispy prawns and brill. The prawns were cooked with oriental spices, salt-and-pepper style, and were luscious, while the brill - such a rarity on menus these days - was beautifully cooked in an intense but not overpowering sauce. There was a generous and appetising serving of a wide variety of vegetables on the side. We wound up with a fragrant steamed orange pudding in a ginger custard. The home-made sourdough bread was brilliant, as was the inspired chicken-infused butter. Charming and obliging service at all times. Exceptional place - hang onto it, Newport!

Fabulous tasty restaurant food and lovely warm, friendly service.

Cosy restaurant with affable ambiance. Good food. Service warm and attentive without being intrusive.

Great food and great service. We thoroughly recommend the ‘Fish and Fizz’ on a Thursday!
