Great food, great staff, great pub

The Queen Inn were helpful from the start when I booked as I booked two consecutive days as I was travelling and wasn't sure which day I'd arrive. When I did arrive, I ended up being a bit late which they accommodated just fine. They were so helpful to my needs including letting me bring my bicycle into the pub whilst I ate. One of the staff members also helped me find a hotel for the night. Above and beyond service.

The food... Absolutely incredible! Completely affordable but fantastic pub food, big portions, great flavours, and I real ordinary pub vibe. Whilst they are now vegan only, there isn't a song and dance about it - it's just a really lovely pub which serves vegan food. I don't know if I'll ever be around Newport again, but I would be swayed with The Queen Inn!

Pros: Amazing and affordable food, Staff are welcoming and lovely, Gorgeous pub with a nice little beer garden too

Lovely pub doing great grub

Lovely pub by a stream.
We went after seeing an article saying they have gone completely Vegan and were not disappointed.
So much choice but we had a burger with and chicken burger, both with cheese and bacon, all Vegan.They came with homemade coleslaw and homemade chips still with the skins on - yum. Nothing looked like it had ever seen a freezer. Anything that was left on our plates was because we were ready to pop after tucking in.
The food felt like it was cooked by people who understand food - not pretentious or fussy , just really good grub without any animal products.
To top it off, the service was so nice, I would be worn out walking up and down the steps to the garden all day , but the lady who brought our food seemed to really enjoy her work .
Cant wait to try something else.

Pros: Completely Vegan, Friendly staff, Really great food

If you only visit one pub in Wales …

….. make it The Queen. A real family owned pub that is 100% vegan including all drinks. Fantastic food, from pub grub classics to healthier options, Sunday lunch and regularly changing specials. Lovely atmosphere with outside seating and even a duck-filled stream running past the pub! The staff could not be more welcoming and helpful. Very reasonably priced too. It’s like a pub made in vegan heaven!

Pros: Delicious food, Great staff/atmosphere, 100% vegan including drinks

Amazing to have a vegan pub in Wales without having to mark the journey to Cardiff or Bristol. So affordable with great food and lovely staff - like others have said, I can’t wait to come back in summer!

Absolutely recommend

Pretty, idyllic setting (can’t wait to visit in the summer and sit outside), warm welcome and great service. So refreshing to be able to order anything from the menu and not worry about if what you’ve been served is vegan. Good selection of different meals, everything we order was really good, easily one of the best meals out in all my 8 years of being vegan. Already booked to come back😄

Best vegan eatery💚

Had the ultimate vegan burger and devils cake which both were amazing!! Highly recommend!! (31.7.21)

Edit

The pub has now gone completely vegan after a successful veganuary 2022. The entire food menu is incredible and the quality and taste of the food I’ve had had been incredible.

My favourite local eatery which I have been going to on a regular basis.

From traditional pub to completely vegan

Made a reservation to eat here during veganuary with my dad and sister who are both meat-eaters and we all loved our meal! So happy they've made the change to completely vegan so come and give them the support they deserve as some of their old customers are not supportive of the change and believe they will revert back to their original menu in a few months so help prove them wrong!

Pros: All vegan food, Affordable

Going all-vegan for Veganuary 2022!

Just read that they'll have only vegan food and drink for January 2022, and thereafter about 50% vegan and lots of gluten-free choices. All-day vegan breakfast on January 1 "as a hangover cure."
I will certainly be frequenting this pub when next in the region. Great promotion!
Update Jan. 20, 2022: They've decided to remain fully vegan!

Amazing food

Went for veganuary and it was amazing to have a fully vegan menu especially with the pub classics. Personally not that interested in the burgers as so many places do vegan burgers now.

We had lasagne and chicken and bacon tagliatelle and both were amazing. So nice to be able to get a vegan creamy pasta out.

A particular highlight were the garlic shrimp for starters. Super good!

Some desserts are homemade which is great (cheesecake, brownie and devils cake). We had the brownie and devils cake. The devils cake was better - like a classic American style chocolate cake. Brownie was a bit chewy and runny and the flavor was somewhat damaged by the bought chocolate sauce that had been put all over it so that was a shame.

Pub is easy to find on satnav and there is plenty of parking. Only about 30 minutes from Cardiff city center.

In terms of service, this wasn’t overly attentive and staff was somewhat rushed, eg was hard to keep them back to ask about the desserts - they just wanted to leave menu and rush off. So could be a little better/more engaged in that sense. But they were very friendly when we did speak to them.

Our particular table was right by the door to the toilets, the main issue being there was a draft and it was a bit chilly from that. Some other parts of the pub might be cozier/nicer in terms of the sitting/ambience element.

Definitely worth a visit for the food - it really is great having so many options. Especially of some pub classics eg sausage and mash and fish goujons and chips which I’d be keen to try another time.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Vegan shrimp, Creamy pasta and pasta not over cooked

Cons: Service could be a little more attentive , Draft/not that cozy

Veganuary Pub

Tons of options, a massive menu. They are doing something great for vegans. Would of been 5 stars but from the time our drinks were served till the food arrived was 48 mins. On Gordon’s kitchen nightmares he would be going nuts leaving a customer waiting so long and one of his solutions would be to simplify the menu. Maybe having so much choice and the chef making things from scratch slowed the service down I don’t know. Weird, we complain not enough options and when there are loads it’s too many. #Veganuary

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly Staff, Ample Parking

Cons: 48 mins for food to arrive after receipt of drink

Hey Wayne, really sorry about the wait! It was the first day of our Veganuary menu and we were fully booked every night that month. Because of the huge change to our menu and cooking methods we kinda expected food would take a little while as it took some getting used to. We’ve been settled into a fully plant-based kitchen for ages now so would love a new review if you get a chance 🥰

Would give five stars if I could

Such a lovely pub with a great vegan menu. We had the ultimate burger and "chicken" burger which were both amazing, vegan restaurant standard if not better. I had read it was dog friendly and they don't just say that, my dog had a great time and loved all the attention. Staff are very friendly and the service was great. 10/10.

Pros: Wide range of vegan options, Dog friendly, Welcoming

How long were you waiting for your food after your drink arrived? We waited 48 mins yesterday. Food was great but it was way to long to leave us waiting.

Best range of vegan options in the area

The only pub I've ever been to with more than one or two vegan options. A great range and owners are keen to expand the vegan menu. I've had both moving mountains burger and the sero "chicken" burger- both delicious.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Vegan owners, Chocolate cake!
