The best restaurants in Monmouthshire South Wales

We booked a table for 4 people using a Groupon voucher for Saturday 13 April 2024. I phoned to book a table on the 7th of March. When we arrived at the restaurant it was closed. A sign on the door said it was closed for 4 to 6 months for a renovation. We had not been contacted at all and we're forced to go elsewhere. I tried to contact them by phone and SMS but no reply.

Bought a groupon voucher to attend here for a surprise Birthday meal, booked a table a week in advance. Arrived to find the restaurant completely closed, there was no attempt from the restaurant to contact me and let me know they were closed. This completely ruined what was meant to be a nice Birthday meal and to top it off I am now out of pocket as we had to get a last minute table in another restaurant and have to wait 2 weeks for Groupon to issue the refund! Definitely do NOT recommend!

Large bright and airy, that sums this place up really. Great disabled access too. Excellent staff very friendly and welcoming. Lots of indoor seating. The food is not very much more than Greggs price wise but way better quality you can't go wrong.

Don’t be deceived by appearances! Really great steak and comfort food- lush cottage pie and chips. Super friendly staff- and great value for money!

Excellent food and service. So good we returned the next day for dinner! Good menu and friendly atmosphere. Will definitely return soon.

Had two of the specials, Crispy Chilli Beef and Spiced Crispy Lamb Kofta. Both meals were amazing. Flavourful and filling. Staff are friendly, helpful and efficient. Will definitely be returning.

Friendly. Quirky. Lots of room. Good selection and quality. Excellent provision and care for allergens. Family run business and this shows with the personal touch you receive.

Really decent food and the staff is really friendly

Recently refurbished and Rebranded as "Fire & Fork" promising a " a traditional American barbecue experience". No Bread available before Starters. - Pork Burnt Ends - Mixture of under and over cooked chunks of pork in a sickly sweet, slightly spicy smoked sauce. Need something acidic to cut through all the fat came with "Texas "Toast", Stale slice of bloomer spread with an unidentifiable substance. Beef Cigars - Lovely shredded beef in a crispy pancake style roll with a rich, smoked Garlic Mayo. Mains - XL Short Ribs not available so both ordered the 10 Hour Smoked Brisket. Served as described on menu. No discernable smoked crust or flavour to the Brisket. No mustard available at this restaurant. No Napkins provided, asked twice, got some from another table. we dealt with our cutlery shortage similarly. No water provided when requested. Inexperience of the staff evident but more than made up for by their enthusiasm and wish to please. Two Starters, Two Mains, Three pints and a Short / Mixer - £92. Option to add tip to card payment. Cash tip direct to server. This place has lots of potential but needs to overcome teething problems before one will consider a return

The setting is very pretty and the coffee and cake, whilst not cheap, were very tasty. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Absolutely lovely food and brilliant service - very good. Would really recommend if in the area. 10/10

Supposed to get a 20% discount for a couple of coffees with NHS app for August. They refused to honour it. I have been many many times before we won’t be back. It’s embarrassing, I should not have to argue for a little discount that I am supposed to get.

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.

My partner and I came here to check out the Detroit pizza and cocktails. The service was fast and super friendly, plus they catered for my nut allergy really well. Being dog friendly, we took out 12 yo labrador Alffi who had fun, plus and Utterly Mutterly ice-cream! We had the 1/2 and 1/2 Detroit pizza, a mix of Bloody Mary and the porcini mushrooms. It was DELISH, the portion was also massive meaning we took half home for tea, making it 2 meals in 1. My partner had the Detroit IPA which was hoppy and fresh. I had the Shepherd and Welsh Wanderer cocktails. Very strong, delicious and well presented. We have friends that live locally and will absolutely be back to check out the Sunday slices, bring our dogs and have some more pizza and cocktails. Thanks Lee & co for fab hospitality.

I highly recommend that you visit this hidden cozy pub!!! Roast dinner was delicious , but due to the portion size couldn’t manage to eat it all. Staff were so friendly , but Fudge ( the dog) was the best company . Perfect place to sit in front of a log burner and enjoy a Sunday afternoon chatting with locals . Couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks again for hospitality, definitely will visit again
