Expected better

We made a special trip to Newport for dinner at Le Pub, and I can only say what an utter disappointment it was. From the uninterested teenagers behind the bar, to the over salted, over cooked food. Wouldn’t bother to return. Bad service, who didn’t seem to know much about veganism. Averagely priced.
Can imagine this would just be another rough pub in a rough area (Newport) on a weekend. Big student vibes and music was too loud for a meal and chance to eat. Tables are sticky and it was also really cold - in July.. Avoid!

Pros: Vegan food

Cons: Poorly cooked and over salted , Bad service with bored, uninterested staff , Cold and too loud for a meal

I’m sorry we can’t control the weather.

Your review comes across as quite bitter. We don’t have teenagers behind the bar. Are you sure you have the right place?

Definitely the right place, and I stand by the review. My review is not bitter, just honest, and as an owner I would hope you take on the constructive critique rather than assume your paying customers are incorrect. It was exceedingly cold whilst sitting inside, yet was not really that cold outside in general.
You’ve also not mentioned anything about the abysmal food and service. I accept I may have had the ages wrong of your staff, but they did not seem to be interested, nor knowledgable about veganism or allergens when confirming items on the menu.

Tip top.

Really great place. Small menu but done well for a burger or hotdog.
Nothing fancy but bloody tasty especially the garlic fries.
Highly recommend

Nice space, food was ok

Food was ok but nothing special when we went. Fries were tasty but the portion was a bit small. The burgers missed flavor and we're small. Unfortunately, they were also out of desserts.
The pub has a lot of nice specialty bears and lemonades.

One of the last great alternative venues in Newport!

Great vegan food, recently went to Le Public Space for something to eat and was really impressed! I’ve been frequenting Le Pub for the past 30 years and have always been a fan of the craft beer they sell. Obviously, like a lot of other independent venues like Le Pub they need to be diverse in such competitive times, so I wasn’t expecting much, but I was glad I did order food there as it’s really good wholesome pub grub, and it’s all vegan as well, bonus as far as I’m concerned. I’ve been telling friends and family to check out the food as well as the drinks in Le Pub! Love it!

Really cool pub/restaurant.
Food was so good. I had a dirty burger with fries and a side order of spicy cauliflower wings.
Price wise it's really affordable and the man behind the bar was really friendly.

Pros: Vegan menu, Delicious food, Loads of drinks available

Good place

They have a small menu that has mostly vegan options. We had their pies, chips, cupcake with ice-cream and smoothy. It's a nice casual place. Has a big venue hire for free. They leave free sanitary towels for female guests which I feel is thoughtful.

Pros: Vegan options , Sanitary towels

Cons: Offers dairy

AMAZING EVENING!

The menu is Vegan and can be altered to Vegetarian. We had a good evening watching the screening of Dominion. My boyfriend and I had Vegan Burgers, one cost £7 and the other cost £9 including Chips. They also do Vegan cupcakes and desserts.

Pros: The burger is the best one I've tried in ages, Fully Vegan and Vegetarian Menu, They understand Veganism and good value of money

Cons: nothing all amazing!
