A pub of few frills but real character and characters. Real bikes with rock music make for a heady mix.

Lamb

6 Bridge Street, Newport NP20 4AL

A refurbishment in mid 2013 brightened up both the highly attractive dark tiled exterior and the interior décor of this popular town centre pub. Back in the day this used to be a two-roomer with public bar at the front connected by a corridor to a rear lounge. It was opened out years ago to provide more space. The area on the right as you enter has a fireplace as its focal point above which is a large TV screen for sport and music channels (there is also a jukebox in this area). The walls display a few old prints of yesteryear and there are quite a few mirrors dotted around for the more vain among us! Gwent CAMRA Town pub of the Year 2015. Food has been reintroduced with Cornish pasties and pies forming the basis of a Cornish theme along with the ales. Karaoke is popular on Friday and Saturday nights with a quiz night on Wednesday from 7.30pm.
