"Oh dear. What a shame. When we first sat down the waiter was brusque. He obviously found our party of eight, which included one child, and one vegan, pretty tiresome. We had called ahead to check that the restaurant offered vegan options, but there were none on the menu. Our guest was advised to order cauliflower (hold the cheese or put together her own dinner from sides. We asked if the chef could suggest a vegan meal (the restaurant was mostly empty at 6;15 so we didn't feel it was too much of an imposition ...the answer was..order sides ...the sides were fairly uninspiring (potatoes, carrots, plain greens so our vegan guest and her child left.And then there were six...We ordered fish and one order of pork. The waiter got the order wrong and brought multiple orders of pork ..so one of our guests ate alone, while the others waited for their food (to be fair, the other server, a lovely waitress, did offer to return that meal and bring all the food at the same time, but our guest was hungry and needed to eat. . The waiter did not apologize and he continued to ignore us for most of the evening. Perhaps chastened by his mistakes, he took orders at the tables around us, shouting them back to customers at full volume. The lovely romantic setting lost its lustre in the face of his boorishness.There were three servers working that evening and I need to point out that the two other waitresses were very solicitous and extremely accommodating. I got the impression they had been hired to compensate for his gruff ineptitude. The sea bass and pork were both delicious. Perfectly cooked. The sides were very good. Would certainly recommend the food, and the setting but the whole experience was marred by one very rude waiter."

We just returned from a lovely holiday in Pembrokeshire where Newport's culinary delights are always the highlight. Ed and Louise Sykes fabulous Garden kitchen is still central to our love of the area kitchen.

Very good food in a relaxing environment, with very good service, also, very good value for money if you choose carefully. My wife and I had two meals there while they were on vacation in August, the first was £55 for two and the second £38, which I think is an excellent value for money. We will certainly return again on our next Newport visit, I hope next year.

Arrived around 4pm, it was quiet but it looked clean and friendly. We have a pot of tea, a latte and a hot chocolate, all were very good.My wife was disappointed they didn’t offer a cream tea (scones with cream and jam) but we have chocolate cake and lemon drizzle slice and both were very tasty.Facilities were clean and the service was efficient.Definitely worth a visit

After spending a night in Newport and conducting an extensive search, we stumbled upon this hidden gem that exceeded our expectations. The food, especially the fish dishes, was superb, the service was excellent, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The prices were reasonable as well. If you find yourself in the area, be sure to check this place out - you won't be disappointed.

We were here for a wedding. The whole hotel was turned over for the event, with the wedding taking place in one part and other parts of the event being held in other areas.The main meal, speeches, drinks and dancing took place in the Kitchen Garden, a sort of advanced conservatree with a bar and kitchen attached, and with gardens outside.The food and service were excellent.Also, the owners and staff helped with everything they could without any problems. A great place for such a event.

We stopped for lunch here after visiting Carreg Coetan Arthur. The restaurant setting is fantastic, with both indoor and garden dining options. There are even covered picnic tables available in case of rain. We ordered the free range chicken with couscous and the fried sea bass on a bed of quinoa salad. For dessert, we had the dark chocolate caramel ganache with raspberries. It was truly one of the best lunches we had in Wales. The staff were knowledgeable and attentive. We highly recommend this restaurant!

What a treat!Newport is fast becoming a foodie paradise and within that constellation no star burns brighter than the Kitchen Garden at Llys Meddyg. We had driven for several hours and were ready for something special and distinctive. We were greeted by Llys Meddyg proprietor and culinary entrepreneur Ed Sykes. Ed’s legendary geniality took us to the Cellar Bar where he settled us down with a couple of expertly prepared whisky sours. Suitably refreshed we were then gently ushered through to the Garden Restaurant where we were greeted by our hostess Florence. A poached haddock with pumpkin and sunflower seed amuse bouche quietly followed ...amazing!For starters we loved a crab, cucumber and c...
