Goldcroft Inn - Newport

My family and I visited the Goldcroft Caerleon today. My aunty, whose birthday it was, booked a long time ago and also rang ahead in the week to remind them of our booking (there was 17 of us). We arrived on time and our table wasn’t ready. The restaurant wasn’t busy at all so it appeared as though they weren’t expecting us. We had also pre ordered as per their request. The waitress then started handing out menus. We then had to remind the waiting staff we had preordered. They didn’t have our pre orders so luckily we had them all written down and could hand them over. When the starters arrived they were a soup, 1 children’s meal plus a gluten free mushroom dish short. I had bruschetta which was basically chopped up peppers and tomatoes on a muffin. They got all our main orders correct, which was great. My wife and I had the beef dinner which we found beef average. Some of my party wanted a desert. We weren’t offered desert and I’m pretty sure we saw the kitchen staff leave, which would explain that. It was a frustrating and disappointing experience and I won’t be coming back in a hurry.

Warm welcome and ordered bottle of wine at bar. Taken to table waited 40 minutes before we had to ask for someone to take our order. Food was excellent, wine a bit expensive but nice.

Visited for a business lunch. Cracking food. Well prepared, fresh. Served with a smile.

What a great discovery! I have dined at this restaurant multiple times and have always been impressed by the exceptional service and delicious food. Dominic is very attentive and welcoming. Big shoutout to the chef and all the staff.

My family of 10 visited this restaurant for the first time on Sunday 16/06/2024 and we were very impressed. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We had a great experience and will definitely be coming back. Thank you.
