The Bistro - Monmouthshire

We had a lunch snack here today and sat in the outside area. Having ordered gammon and cheese sandwiches, it should not have taken 30 minutes ! The gammon was lovely but surely you can do better than a mountain of grated cheese and bread only buttered on one side ! The salad dressing was OK as were the crisps. Our biggest problem was that this small area should be non smoking. We had to put up with a member of the bistro staff smoking at the next table! Having said all that , our waitress was lovely and very polite when we made all these complaints to her as we payed our bill.

Visited this lovely little place, beautiful cakes, coffee and special board. Good honest food, appears to be homemade. Fantastic outside space for warmer weather. Certainly worth a visit.

I frequently visit the Bistro at Bridges Centre in Monmouth for breakfast, lunch, or even just coffee. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The coffee and cakes are delightful, with a wide variety to choose from, as well as daily specials. I highly recommend paying a visit.

I would not recommend this restaurant to my colleagues after a disappointing experience. We arrived at 11.30 to find several reserved tables, but the waitress seated us promptly. Despite being one of the first customers, we waited over 30 minutes for our food. When it finally arrived at 12.40, my order was wrong and the other dishes were lukewarm. The waitress offered a free bacon sandwich as compensation, but I declined. We were surprised by the lack of apology or explanation for the delay. I suggest avoiding this place and hope the staff can improve their customer service in the future. The front desk waitress was friendly, but failed to inform us of the wait time.

I always enjoy visiting The Bistro, even though it's a bit out of the way. The prices are great and the food quality is excellent. It's definitely worth a visit!
