The best restaurants in Monmouthshire South Wales

I was shocked that there were no disabled parking spaces and I had to drop my elderly disabled mother at the front entrance then drive a fair distance to the tennis courts car park to park my car. I am also disabled and have to use a walking mobility aid which was quite difficult as I had to walk on the main road to the venue to get back. There was no dropped kerb to allow me to use the very narrow inadequate footpath. Very very disappointed at the lack of disabled parking for such a large and well used venue.

We visited as a couple in March ‘24 and were blown away by this place. We returned recently with friends who were visiting the area and unfortunately I wish we’d taken them somewhere else. The menu has been stripped down to essentially burgers and a couple of other bits. “The works”, a platter of all sorts of BBQ bits and was amazing last time is no longer on the menu (although is still showing on the menu online!). Service was poor. Food took 45 minutes to come and when it did, our starters were served at the same time as our mains meaning that they were essentially side dishes. This was blamed on a new member of staff putting it all through at once. Me and a mate both ordered the bacon double cheeseburger and loaded fries. Both came with regular fries and had to be taken back and changed. We both said the burgers were poor. Buns and meat were dry and tasteless and just disintegrated. I had a big chunk of gristle in mine. They were both smothered in sickly sweet BBQ sauce. One of us had the flat iron steak which was poor quality and difficult to cut. My wife had belly pork which she said she couldn’t fault. Asked for salt & vinegar which never came. Staff weren’t that attentive and had to call a waitress over to order another round of drinks. Won’t be going back in a hurry given the choice available in Abergavenny.

Absolutely stunning food thank you, highly recommended great location and they definitely go the extra mile

Having walked on the Wye Valley Greenway from Tintern Abbey, we needed lunch in Chepstow. The Ugly Mug cafe fitted the bill perfectly. Table service was very welcome and food was excellent. Had the BLT sandwich while others had the Cheese and Onion sandwich, plus toasted teacakes. Very friendly people running the place. Dog friendly too. Could not ask for more

Due to stay here after a gig in the castle on the 17th of August. The day before, had a message to say that our room we were due to stay in had been flooded, and no other rooms were available. This had been booked since January, so why it was specifically “our”designated room I have no idea. Multiple attempts at contacting them by phone have failed. No other hotel rooms available in Chepstow at such short notice, and has resulted in us having to book a hotel out of the area and booking taxis there and back, so a lot of extra expense. Highly suspicious and extremely poor customer service. Think twice before booking here folks

Really impressed. Our first visit this past weekend after moving nearby, and we've quickly found our Chinese takeaway. Ordered a set meal for 4, and every part of that meal was fantastic. Well packed, hot, generous portions, and delicious. Really friendly too!

Whilst on holiday in the area we decided to have a night in with a takeaway and found this place through a google search. What a find. Great food, good portion sizes, quick service, reasonable prices and lovely staff. Brilliant for vegetarians with a wide selection of quaint based meals. We will be visiting again next time we are visiting.

The fish was dry and tasteless, and the batter fatty and inedible. The staff impolite and unable to calculate the correct change. The chips were bad bad bad

Coffee and food were amazing,staff were very welcoming and it was overall an amazing place, highly recommended...Will be back!!

Visited the property for the gardens advertised as participating in the BBC Gardeners World magazine 2 for 1 entry. The place itself looked semi- derelict and unkempt. The gardens were the worst I think I’ve ever seen at any garden open to the public. Overgrown, weedy & unmanaged. It was quite shocking to see. We left within a few minutes.

Popped in a couple of times during our weekend visit to Monmouth. Nice friendly pub. Clean. Would definitely use again.

Excellent pub in heart if historic village good selection of food and drinks with friendly staff and great regulars. Well worth a visit

Great place for food and drink after a long walk along the canal. 2 brunches for the grandchildren both plates cleared (2 Sausages, 2 rashers bacon, beans, scrambled egg, chips and toast) Ham egg and chips Sausage sandwich and chips. Excellent food, value for money. Entertainment outside was brilliant to round the day off. Definitely coming back..

Not a vast menu, but caters for vegetarians and vegans as well, which is always welcome. Food was all freshly cooked and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

The beer has always been of the highest quality that all other pubs in the local can only aspire.Well done
