The Inn at the Elm Tree is a former 19th century barn that assumed the avatar of a renowned restaurant until the year 2000 when it also became an inn and since then, it has become a Newport favourite for numerous reasons. Primary among them could be the cheerful hospitality, delicious fare and friendly service, which elevates the experience into something memorable and lovely. From the food perspective, the restaurant is an ideal spot for a dinner rendezvous or business lunch with a colleague, and with its serene atmosphere and locally sourced cuisine, it's no wonder it's so popular.

Amongst starters, there could be deep fried calamari with a tomato and chilli dip followed by a main course of roast rack of lamb with spring cabbage, julienne of root vegetables, red currant and rosemary jus. A look at the dessert list might reveal choices such as bread and butter pudding served with ice cream. The drinks list features some excellent wines and spirits.
