Called in for lunch when shopping in Newport. A friendly greeting and escorted to our table in a lovely light spacious room. A comprehensive menu, both our choices were delicious, nicely presented and served in good time. Service through was friendly and professional.

a traditional old style tea room with quaint decorations and traditional. polite smart staff - very informative. tea and crockery, plates etc all in the old style. meals have a nice twist to them instead of the straight forward meal you would get at a cafe. if intend going- book before hand - we did not know but cos we got there when it was not too busy we got in. - enjoy the atomsphere.

I?m a regular at this establishment for coffee and cake, meeting girl friends for lunch and afternoon tea. So to kickstart Hubby?s 60th birthday celebrations I booked us in for a breakfast on the special day. In advance I dropped off a helium balloon, age specific badge and sparkling candles and all these duly appeared when we arrived - the candles in the sausages on hubbys breakfast plate! We were looked after with friendly kindness and the food, tea, coffee and a glass of Prosecco were all first class. Toilets are spotless and general hygiene second to none. Excellent local businesses like this one deserve to be supported and encouraged. We will be back.

A warm welcome and friendly service, in an unusual setting. An interesting menu with some dishes different from the usual fare. My Moroccan sausage stew was very tasty, and my wife's omelette was excellent. Pot of loose leaf tea, filled to the brim. Excellent.

We chose here for our Valentines evening meal & we are so glad we did. The welcome was lovely. Service was great throughout the evening & the food was delicious. You should open more on an evening - even once a month as Newport is missing somewhere nice to eat on an evening unless you want a curry ;) Hopefully see you again soon.

We called in for lunch. What a lovely place. We were greeted at the door and a table found for us. Beautiful decor. I had homemade quiche with salad and coleslaw it was delicious. Made with farm eggs and a really generous portion. My husband had omelette and chose his own ingredient combination. Absolutely lovely we will definitely return

We ate some lunch and had coffee and a glass of Prosecco today at Smallwood Lodge. The staff welcomed us with warm smiles, lovely service and were so accommodating. I asked for some warm milk in a small espresso cup for my toddler, the lovely female staff member went out of her way to provide this. They were so lovely. The food was really good. The mushrooms on toast was so scrummy! If you?re heading to costa?cross the road and go to Smallwood lodge instead. Support local!

Fantastic cafe with exceptional breakfast and the sausages were to die for, the English breakfast tea was also a highlight served in a William Morris tea pot which we thought was an unusually nice touch, this place is also dog friendly and the staff were very warm and welcoming to us and our four legged friends would highly recommend.

Beautiful old building inside and outside. We got there before 10am and we had a cracking breakfast deal, a generous amount, well cooked, lots of toast AND a drink (loose leaf green tea!) Very nice friendly staff too! Very clean. EXCELLENT!

We arrived at Smallwood Lodge unannounced having not booked a table. The staff there couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating. Lunch was amazing. If you go there, your tea will be made fresh and served the old way - with tea leaves for you to strain - so much tastier. Everything happens in good time and is super fresh - so don't expect 'fast food'. We will definitely return there. If I had to made a suggestion for Smallwood Lodge, it would be to make the entrance more prominent and advertise to people what gem lies within. The little menu box there is easily missed.
