The best restaurants in St. Mary's Monmouthshire South Wales

We were delighted to discover The Pantry yesterday. Although it was near closing time they happily accommodated 5 of us. Absolutely super food. The service was outstanding and the lady who served us was so very pleasant and convivial. We all throughly enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend it

Amazing quality sushi, always tastes so fresh. The staff are always happy to make the sushi in front of me, if it's not in the shelves as-well.

A lovely lunch with my favourite people. We all had Clam risotto and it was delicious. The service was outstanding.

Food wasn’t as good as normal, delivered late

Absolutely brilliant food went there last night with my step daughter and her partner and husband . The waiter was really funny and the food was sublime. Very enjoyable evening would love to go again . That is why I have given this restaurant 5 stars for everything.

Great friendly customer service. Very attentive as I have various disabilities. The quality of coffee and cakes 🥮 were fantastic xXx

Stayed one night, enjoyed a breakfast in the morning and came back later that day for Mother’s Day Sunday lunch. Amazing friendly service from beginning to end, the rooms were comfortable, clean and well presented. The food in both meals was fantastic. In particular, the service during the Sunday lunch was efficient yet we never felt rushed - impressive given that it was a busy service.

Fabulous breakfast as always, thanks First Class Cafe. I always arrive early before long journeys as it keeps me going all day, and I can avoid those awful Cafe Locals that are popping up at most stations.

Newly refurbished and now open. Had a lovely couple of pints here. This is a cosy traditional pub without being rough or unwelcoming. A great addition to Chepstow- let's make it a success!

Very friendly and welcoming staff. We had ham salad and smoked salmon salad at £7.25 each which was very reasonable. Very generous portions of ham and salmon and nice mixed salad leaves with tomato and cucumber, and balsamic glaze. Then toasted tea cake and coffee, again very nice and delivered with a smile. Will definitely go here again.

Wonderful food, great ambience, lovely people. Fantastic quality, good price. If you like a traditional English breakfast or afternoon tea this place is wonderful. However, on a Thursday they also offer a Sri Lankan curry which is fantastic. Excellent prices as well.

Stopped for a coffee and piece of cake during Rememberence Sunday.All provided free with donations for Poppy Fund. Very friendly staff very clean. Menu looked good with nice selection.Will be visiting again

I have been to the Orange Crate on multiple occasions and have never had a bad experience. The wraps are delicious and the soups and the Cold War juice is my fave! Staff very friendly and great to have local.

We were on a coach holiday from North West England staying at Symmonds Yat. Chepstow was on the itinerary for a couple of hours stop.We were dropped off at the main bus station.We asked a local lady for a recommendation for a decent coffee / snack.She suggested a visit to The Palmer Centre cafe. What a fabulous little gem we found it to be. The place has a loving calm atmosphere, very clean and comfortable. The staff were excellent- friendly & welcoming to strangers ,waitress service a bonus. Food & drink excellent quality for a good price. plus outstanding washroom facilities. Would highly recommend to anyone who is visiting Chepstow to call in for a Palmer centre Cafe experience & give support to a worthwhile community facility

I booked a table on the 13th of February 2025 ,To celebrate Valentine's Day as the website said it wasn't open apart from Thursdays. As this used to be one of our favourite restaurants, we decided to plan everything around this 7 pm booking. A few days before I received an email asking me to confirm this booking as I booked it last month, I confirmed it and then I received another email confirming the booking themselves. So on the 13th, me and my partner had such a lovely day exploring Wales and was looking forward to ending our day with a Bang and to our surprise it was shut. No lights on, no one around to ask, complete darkness from inside. I rang the telephone, heard it ringing from the inside and nothing. Massively disappointed us yesterday and it is such a shame as we really enjoyed the food there. Completely ruined our valentine's day, I believe we are due some compensation or a free meal before EVER going back there.
