The best restaurants serving Other european-cuisines food in 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.

Love this lovely pub/inn, theres always a friendly vibe from staff, Everything ive tried ive never had a bad meal here, i have been a few times and im sure i will go back again soon

Before visiting Tintern Abbey we decided to find a good pub in the area. The Fountain Inn is just lovely, off the beaten track through beautiful woods with a stream alongside the road. It is an atmospheric 17th century pub with a roaring log fire and a great menu, it was difficult to choose as there was a fantastic range of food and very good value too. We were really pleased with the food we had, it was cooked to perfection, steak and duck just as we’d asked, a good selection of perfectly cooked fresh vegetables, delicious potato rosti and dauphinois. They even make their own bread which is a treat and we really enjoyed the ales they have. The lady who served us was lovely, very warm and friendly, she couldn’t have been more hospitable and welcoming. It was our wedding anniversary so thanks to the Fountain Inn for making it a very memorable one!

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!

I visited the Parva Farmhouse for dinner with a friend who was visiting. The small dining room was almost full and tables were well spaced out to allow relaxed conversation. The decor is tranquil and rustic. The food we had was exceptional! And the portions very generous. The chocolate mousse we shared for dessert was absolutely dreamy! There’s a good wine list and delicious cocktails available. All reasonably priced. I can’t wait to visit again

Food was bland, vegetarian Sunday lunch was vile and was told when asked that the chefs wife likes it so it must be okay. Standards have definitely slipped, not worth the £20 for a main. The waitress was extremely rude and started arguing when we mentioned the quality of the food. Even the beef and pork were not particularly nice and was mostly fat. If it was half the price I would understand. Could hear the staff talking about us as the kitchen door does not fully close.
