Nice pub. Beer in very good condition from a choice of four real ales. We only had the one as the extorionate city-centre prices were prohibitive.
Food is also good, but fell foul of the unforgivable error of cold plates. Talking of foul, the confit de canard was dry and crispy, certainly not how it should be. Service isn't great. No smiles, no enquiries about the meal, etc. Strange custom of serving tea/coffee crockery before pudding, then not clearing the pudding dishes before commencing coffees! All making for a cluttered and messy table.
If only they treated their customers as well as their beer!

I have had a couple of very enjoyable Sunday lunches here.
It's a spacious pub with a lovely garden. Food is good and there are plenty of tables inside and outside so even on a busy Sunday we didn't have to queue. Beer is excellent - always at least four cask ales on tap, usually sourced locally. Staff are friendly. Can't really fault it. A gem of a pub.

Great foody pub. Good food and demand for tables supports this. Ales consistently good over last year. Bar staff have all been very good. One of the of the best pubs near Newport for sure.

I wne t to this pub, somewhat sceptical of how good it really is. Well, everything looked good, from the outset, carpark heaving, and I had concerns that the inerior would be also. The frontage belies the enormous interior spaces, well-lit, open fire roaring....
The range of cask ales was good, and the" Shropshire Hop", was good, but surpassed by the truly wonderful Salopian Brewery's "Oracle", with its stunning after-taste of berried fruits (sound a bit like a wine snob?? No chance, I'll not be rinsing this beer down the drain, too good to waste :D)
The menu was impressive, and the Gloucester Old Spot sausages, with mash and onion gravy wasvery filling,
The pub's reputation really is as good as it reads on BITE. Truly, this is the way forward, Well done to Brunning and Price, this was a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
I'll be recommending this pub to all.

An excellent pub. 6 beers on when I visited. I tried three and all were on top form. The food is a little more upmarket but is very good. Huge beer garden.
