The best restaurants Monmouthshire (Sir Fynwy)

The restaurant was able to make the most of the old barn in which it was elected. The large vaulted beams and ceilings dating from the th century have been carefully preserved, giving the place a real personality. The modern furniture and lighting studied bring their contemporary touch to the whole. There is a traditional meat and fish kitchen and a very good wine list. At noon, the restaurant also serves salads and sandwiches in a more brasserie-style spirit.

The quality of the Angel Hotel restaurant is worthy of that of the hotel and offers one of the most refined restaurants in the city of Abergavenny. The chef is familiar with the region's culinary traditions but also knows how to bring an innovative touch to them. You will taste here a cuisine based on fresh products with surprising flavours, in an elegant and spacious setting, with dimmed lights. It is also possible to have a more informal meal at the bar or on the terrace. Or simply to come at lunchtime, enjoy a superb afternoon tea.

The building, built around 1600, is home to the town's oldest pub. The pub has opened a restaurant where you can dine by candlelight, under huge oak beams and in a cosy atmosphere. The menu offers relatively classic dishes, but prepared with care and at reasonable prices. There's a wide choice for those who want to go gluten-free or follow a vegetarian or vegan diet. You can also come just for a drink. The very pleasant place also offers beautiful rooms upstairs where you can spend a very good night.

A small wonder in the picturesque hamlet of Cross Ash, the 1861 Restaurant has been talked about by the Welsh gastronomic elite. The idea was born from Chief Simon and his wife, very experienced and in search of fabulous local products. All in an old restored house, with period beams and fireplaces. Children can have the same menu as parents in half-portion at half price. It is also an opportunity for them to discover the quality of the chef's cuisine. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free choice on request.

A large and pleasant coffee that offers quite creative, varied and not too expensive menus. The service is fast, of high quality, and the rations are generous. People come here at any time to have a drink or to eat quick snacks such as sandwiches or salads and more hearty dishes such as steaks and hamburgers. The atmosphere is quiet at lunchtime, no noisy radio, just nice background music. In good weather, you can also enjoy the small terrace on the pedestrian street.
