Blue Scrumpy left this review about The St Julian Inn
Pub on the northern edge of Newport and just across the river from Caerleon. It has some lovely views over the River Usk.
Inside there are a number of rooms scattered around a central bar, including a games room with a pool table and larger sections for dining, with food obviously being popular here on my Friday lunchtime visit. From the dining room, an outdoor patio overlooking the river can be accessed.
Bath Ales Gem & Fuller's London Pride are the regular ales. Guests were Oakham Citra & Wye Valley Moonshot. There was also a cider on handpull - Gwynt y Ddraig Sleigh Ride. My Moonshot was very enjoyable.
A live act (apparently jazz) was setting up in one room. It is easy to see why this pub has featured in the Good Beer Guide for over 30 consecutive years. It is clearly one of the best pubs in the area with friendly service and a good range of well-kept real ales.
