The best restaurants in Usk Monmouthshire South Wales

We stayed at the ARW for a short weekend break our anniversary. Our room was excellent, the price was very reasonable for the quality. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly during our stay and were happy to provide a bottle of bubbles for the room. Breakfast was first rate, the ambiance and decor was tasteful and the food was magnificent- we had chateaubriand steak for dinner on one night and went to a well-known upmarket restaurant the following might, and the ARW food we both thought was of much better quality. I'm sure we'll be back.

What a lovely little cafe and deli. I ordered the meat and cheese platter and it was OK, mainly bread which was a bit disappointing, but the atmosphere was fab

Brilliant meal at Fantastico last night(30/04/24) The Gamberi prawn starter was lovely with really fresh prawns. Primavera risotto was delicious and Tagliatelle Carnacina was Excellent. Great dessert’s accompanied by a great dessert wine.

Just wow! What can I say. Food is to die for

Just had a lovely meal at the Nags head. Always great choice, easy and quick to order. I made a mistake when I ordered but the Lady serving us and the Manager on the bar were so kind..They sorted it out for us really quickly and really looked after us. Not had such friendly helpful service in a long time. The value for money is unbelievable. We paid less than most take aways are charging but for better food and a lovely atmosphere. Given how busy it must be for them this time of year they were spot on with everything and we really enjoyed our meal.

Had my baby shower here in their private function room - highly recommend. A gorgeous space perfect for up to 20 people to enjoy an afternoon together. Stunning decor, beautiful food and delightful afternoon tea with a great service. Could not recommend enough! The food and drinks were delicious and reasonably priced.

Sprokwobbles has closed. What a tragedy. Lovely food and friendly staff. Miss it so much. Let's hope it can return soon. Nothing to match it in Usk.

This place is stuck in an antiquated time warp. I could look past the fact that it has not been updated in the past 25 years, but to serve such poor food and expect a premium for it - just no excuse. Sunday lunch for two cost £130. The starter was overwhelming big - ordered brie - they literally served an entire wedge of brie. Way, way too big for a starter. My husband had pork for main. They served him what appeared to be the end of the joint which looked completely unpalatable - very dry and unappetising. They provide silver service for the veg, so if you think you may get some on your plate to start with and then go in for a bit more later – forget it. The veg was OK, but at £22 for a main course, boiled sprouts and carrots were unimaginative to say the least. Not even a hint of glaze or seasoning other than salt! We had a pavlova for pudding and the fruit was slushy and looked ready for the recycling bin. Won’t be going again in a hurry!

Visited after a lovely post-Christmas walk along the canal. I ordered a bowl of soup and my husband only wanted a coffee. This cafe is in a beautiful setting and the menu looked good. However, I waited ages for the soup to arrive and in fact thought they had forgotten about me so I went to ask. I was told there were two other orders in front of me. My husband had long finished his coffee when it did eventually arrive. Great potential here but the service needs to be sorted. Hopefully this was just a blip on the day we visited.

Had an eve meal here consisting of duck starter, and beef main course. Two slices duck were half inch thick and tough as old boots, so we struggled through one slice. Two thinner slices would have been preferable. As for the beef, it was way over cooked and was more like pulled beef than a piece. The yorkshire pud was massive and as crispy as the beef should have been. However not all bad news, the staff were excellent and served the food and drinks very well and on time. Thank you.

Another excellent Sunday lunch at the New Court, plentiful portions, attentive service, nice atmosphere. Am sure we will visit again soon.

Good service the meal was very good, I had the steak pie which came with mash, very creamy plus cabbage & sprouts would've been nice if there had been a few peas or even a carrot, it will not stop me going again

Grumpy staff Overpriced food £10 for a panini?! We are not in London One toilet for the whole café Nice food though Side salad was lovely

Evening meal between Christmas and New year. Steaks and halibut. First time here so didn't know what to expect. Wow what a great pub lovely atmosphere very friendly staff. Can honestly say the best meal we have had in years. We would like to wish the new family owners all the best for the futu👏👏

There is not enough stars to rate this country pub & hotel. The rooms are spotless & the bed is really comfortable, there is no faults at all with this gem. Full English breakfast was amazing & huge portions. What really stands The Kings Head a part from the rest is the hospitality of Adam & his team. Amazing value for money & couldn't fault it ♥
