The best restaurants in St. Arvans Monmouthshire South Wales

As a regular visitor to this jewel of a cafe the service (as always) today was fabulous, hot drinks made to the strength you like and always fresh cakes and treats. But what makes this place is the staff, always super friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Special mention today to Angharad who was very attentive and kept my tea topped up. Great to catch up with all the family

A beautiful place with a great atmosphere. We had dinner on the first night of our stay and were extremely impressed but the quality of the food and the service. We will definitely be returning. All in all a very positive experience.

Great food great service. All in all a fantastic place. Relaxed yet high quality food and staff really welcoming and helpful. Hope not everyone finds this place or won’t get in.Well done to all.

We had a great traditional Sunday dinner! The staff were lovely and able to cater for GF food. Desserts were a treat too. Thank you 😊

We stopped in for a quick lunch. The lady behind the bar was friendly and welcoming and the bar is well stocked with draught beer and a good range of wine. there is seating both inside and outside There is an extensive menu but we only wanted a light lunch. What we selected was fine but fairly bland - the salad only had a lightly drizzle of dressing. It was a pleasant visit and we would stop here again and try some other dishes.

We got a couple of beers free when we stayed overnight at the Hopgarden. I tried this classic bitter and it was very nice. Very stout in flavour. A very nice drop. Nice taste.

Dreadful carvery. Tasteless and overcooked. I spoke to a member of staff, who really couldn’t care.

We went all over the Trellech/Penallt/Newchurch area, farmshops and cafes were not open or shutting at 4pm (!). We went down to the Mill in Tintern and were greeted with rude staff, grotty atmosphere and triple prices.. So popped into the Piercefield on the way back to Chepstow. It was great! Very cosy atmosphere, welcoming down-to-earth staff, and cheap prices for food. It was served very quickly, good sized amounts and tasted nicely cooked - well balanced. We opted for pub classics such as fish and chips, lasagne, etc, as pubs do these sort of things better. Beer was good and not expensive. We were all nicely satisfied with it. Thank you! The Piercefield - a good reliable option.

Best bacon sandwich I have eaten in years. Friendly and helpful staff. Let me know about all there local sourced food and where to buy it.

Rarely feel compelled to write a review, but loved my meal here. Seafood platter to share gorgeous, steak salad lovely and chocolate trio amazing. Seems a small thing, but chips were properly homemade too. Service ace. Only £4 for Butty Bach. My new fave place to eat.

Came here for a late lunch at the weekend, after it was recommended to us while holidaying in the area. It didn’t disappoint!!! The food was amazing, hands down the best meal of our holiday. Service also good, and dogs welcomed too. The only feedback I’d give to the restaurant is that we were sat by a door that led out to a garden; people would take drinks out and the door didn’t close properly so we had to keep getting up to close it! Hopefully rectified in the upcoming refurb. Otherwise perfect and would recommend without a doubt!

Please don't use this place.. They handle allergies so flippant we were told to sit outside on unclean tables when we informed them of a dog allergy. There were empty tables inside but showed no interest in trying to cater for our needs. It's only a matter of time before they cause a medical emergency with this attitude.

Went to Tintern hoping for some lunch today and stopped at the tearooms at 1:45pm. Met with a surly, "We're not doing any more hot food" (at 1:45pm!?) so we asked for a sandwich. Met with a surly, "We're not doing those either" (at 1:45pm!?) Told, "You can have coffee and cake". No thanks, we wanted lunch. We were obviously a nuisance and unwanted. I've given a one because I can't give a zero. Don't bother with these tearooms, customers are obviously surplus to requirements.
