Was staying locally last minute and booked Farmers Arms for a mid evening dinner. Arrived late and had a little trepidation about the vicinity. Parked on the road easily however. Greeted warmly by staff and went to restaurant area of which there are two, and chose a table. Menus are on their website, not printed. Love this!! Plenty of choice on draught and even some cocktails!! Garlic mushrooms were delicious, burger was one of the best I’ve ever eaten and I’ve had a quite a few!! Apparently the pies are the best!! Sadly no room for dessert. This place is a hidden gem, don’t judge a book by its cover :0)

Lovely place only 10 minutes from home. Service was very friendly, staff very kind and helpful. Food was absolutely delicious. The chef, Sarah, came out to each table to ask how everything was, such a lovely, friendly person. 100% will be returning.

The food was delicious and the servers are so lovely. We found this place by chance while waiting for our parents to help us out with a motorcycle and the lovely ladies have been serving us foods and drinks. We tried the hunters chicken burger and their potatoes are to die for. Highly reccomend if you want some good food with a date or friends.

Quick service food was nicely presented setting was cosy the mains were very tasty and just about the right amount of food you can order extra sides but theres not much point. The thai fish cake starter on a bed of noodles was very good. I would happily recommend this place for food and will def come back. Cost wise probably above average but the quality is there.

Cannot stress enough how amazing this hidden gem is. We stumbled upon it randomly whilst in the area and had probably the best food I ever had in the UK. It was so good we went there twice during our stay in South Wales. The service was amazing both times - attentive and very friendly staff, the food presented beautifully, generous portions and just bursting in flavours. I could not recommend this place enough and would go out of my way to go there again.

I booked an area for 14, for Sunday lunch via Facebook messenger. There was plenty of on street parking and a friendly welcome. All the preordered meals were served correct, warm, with a selection of vegetables. Every single person raved about their choice and I got to take our leftover beef (very generous portions) for my greyhound Lily..... her eyes are the best review anyone could have! We are all family based in Monmouth, Cardiff, Blackwood & Abertillery and the location was great for us all.

We came with five people. The food was absolutely exceptional, each dish bursting with flavor and served very quick. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the staff. Despite being understaffed, every member of the team was incredibly friendly and attentive. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable dining experience, and their warm hospitality did not go unnoticed. It’s rare to find such a perfect combination of good food and genuinely caring service.
