The best restaurants in Caerleon Newport South Wales

I honestly don't know if it's the wrong Asian culture of the chefs or what but all I want are those bright red dry BBQ ribs and they don't seem to know how to make them. The first time I asked for them they came in some sort of heavily garlic'd sauce. Obviously, I didn't notice until I got them home! The next time they had some sort of generic salty BBQ sauce on them but for some reason I've never been able to obtain 'traditional bright red' dry (rough texture to the bite) BBQ spare ribs like the Phoenix Garden IV used to do before it closed. I could also get something similar (but not quite right) at Cwmbran's Jade Garden; however, they were often a little oversaturated in cooking oil and needed patting dry with paper towel once I got them home. Time to look up various internet recipes and make them myself I suppose...

Popped into this cafe when visiting the Roman baths. We were met by very friendly staff who were courteous and helpful. We ordered Panninis, scones, tea, and coffee and were treated to very tasty food. The scones were so good we took some home. Great little cafe to remember for future visits.

Cracking pub with great play area for kids. The service was excellent and very friendly.

There were some maintenance issues throughout that meant the stay wasn't quite the luxury experience we expected.

I was passing by one evening and thought it’d be worth a try. To my surprise, two different items in the order were in an identical sauce (despite one of these items being from the ‘specials’ menu) foul & inedible are the first words that come to mind. Please, please avoid this place at all costs…god knows how this place is still in business.

Great cosy pub with excellent pub quiz and good food.

36 of us attended the Hanbury Arms for a Sunday meal. Service, efficiency, friendliness and cleanliness were all 100 percent. We were all served with correct meals and they were delicious. The beef Sunday lunch was extremely tasty with plenty of meat and vegetables. Thank you Hannah and all her staff.

DO NOT dine at THE OLIVE TREE , we went there two weeks ago and was charged twice for our meals I have have rang them numerous amount of times but unfortunately this still hasn't been sorted even though I have given proof of this happening. I have spoke to the accounts department numerous times also but to be honest they are USELESS they keep saying ohh I do apologise we will get this sorted but I'm still waiting for it to be sorted 2 WEEKS ON ,I have tried to get hold of the olive tree direct but that is proving to be impossible. Be very CAREFULL. ... . TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICES.

Fantastic dinner for two at The Grill. Perfectly cooked half roast chicken and cod. Nice and hot, fresh and great service from Raz.

We were visiting on holiday and wanted a chinese takeaway and looked at the reviews and thought this was worth a try. When we got there, you had to phone your order though, not knowing this, one of the staff very kindly came out to see us and take our order, who was very friendly and helpful. So glad we chose this one. The food was so tasty and we all agreed it was the best takeaway we had ever had, and we have had a few! We couldn't get over the portion sizes, especially the chicken balls, as well as being a good price, there was simply nothing to fault. We wish it was our local chinese. We shall certainly be back when in the area again.

Stood at bar for 10 minutes to be told no bar service ( no idea why and no sign). Went to table and ordered after 10 minutes.. drinks arrived 20 mins later. Not busy just poorly managed. So 40 mins to get a drink in a very average bar at expensive prices..

There’s a reason why all the 5 star reviews are from 2+ years ago. Never have any ingredients available, I’m not sure how they ever make a complete sub but worst was the lady who obviously didn’t wear a name badge for a reason; could not be bothered at all, made a single order at a time and was the least switched on person in the county. A complete shambles as other reviews have said, drive to another store, it’ll be worth it!
