The New Inn

Loved this place, visiting the New Inn came at a perfect time. On a Saturday, we walked into Newport and found that none of the pubs/eateries in the centre of town served food between 3pm and 6pm. This was very disappointing! We were about to give up until we found the New Inn on our radar - it was a short walk out from the centre, which is why it wasnt originally one of our options - and we were so glad that we chanced upon it! The staff were lovely and friendly from the offset and - most importantly - they were serving food. Everyone in our group enjoyed the food and drinks, and the vegan options were very good! Banana blossom fish and chips is not a common menu item in the most populous of places, so to find this in Newport was a welcome surprise. The corn ribs - while delicious - were very messy. Normal ribs are pretty messy, I guess? Pub started to get busy later into the afternoon, which shows that its a popular spot for locals and it made for a great atmosphere. If youre visiting Newport and dont want to get disappointed by Bod, The Bridge, or Shakespeare and their weird kitchen opening times, just go to the New Inn. Its most likely the better option regardless!

I am so disappointed. This pub was amazing for food and a great place to bring family and friends, but i was let down and embarrassed when i brought my friends for a meal here. We were first in and last to get food. When we received the food it was dry. The staff had to go and buy food supplys from waitrose as they had nothing in. They only good thing was the service from the staff. They were apologetic and gaves a very large discount and free drinks. Even their waitresses thought the food was shocking. The pub needs to get back on its feet fast.
