| Recent celebrations have marked the Newport having had only 2 landlords in 70 recent years, not many pubs can say that these days... Alec Cottle 1941 to 1970 Bernard Cook 1970 to 2009 Of course the pub continues with Janet Cook (nee Cottle) at the pumps, with help from Shirley, Rusty and other friends. Wonderful place, smashing HSB and ploughmans and friendly regulars in the evenings...I really must try to visit more often. FLO - 20 Nov 2011 22:26 |
| Those who complain about the state of the garden and decor are missing the point. That is one of the things that make this the pub that it is. Original and not looking like millions of other pubs. Sea-farers was well kept and the Cheese sandwich was more than great value for money. Those having a ploughmans were treated to what appeared to be a loaf of bread for the roll.

| This pub is amazing. My parents took me here when I was little back in the early 80's and now I take anyone who knows me there.. There is nowhere like it. Can't beat a good old sing song around the Joanna! kitty.brooks - 5 Apr 2011 16:46 |
| An almost unique pub. for a near match (without the plowmans) -the closet thing being a pickled egg, try the Red Lion, Snargate, Kent. Still run by the legendary Doris, having been in the family since 1910 and barely changed in the intervening years. arathorn - 26 Dec 2010 19:49 |
| I visited this pub today, full of enthusiasm, having read the reviews. Perhaps, if I had gone in the evening, it would have been better but, oh, what a disappointment. Yes, it is full of old stuff and, as someone, else said, had it been full, I may have felt differently but, character is not abject neglect. We sat in the garden which didn't look as if it had seen a pair of secateurs for years with trails of brambles trying to escape from overgrown bushes. Flower beds full of weeds and the garden furniture had to be seen to be believed. Months, maybe years of grime had accumulated on tables and chairs. Junk was dumped between the garden near the car park and the garden near the entrance. To be fair, the beer was okay and inside seemed quite clean but surely a couple of days clearing up outside would make a world of difference. The young man serving at the bar, looked as if he would rather be on the moon but, then, maybe his exam results weren't quite what he expected and he envisaged spending his working life at this pub. cocodemer - 9 Sep 2010 17:20 |
