Most Liked
Guests rave about the signature Sirloin and Rump steaks, noting their robust flavors and tender textures. The peppercorn sauce is a favorite, often described as a must-try by steak lovers.
The dessert selection garners particular attention, especially the Chocolate Brownie and Maple Glazed Waffles, which leave diners wanting more.
The atmosphere shines, marked by a relaxed and cosy vibe that makes everyone feel welcomed, whether it’s a casual breakfast, an intimate dinner, or a lively brunch with friends.
Most Disliked
While many enjoy the food and ambiance, some diners point out that the service can occasionally lag during the peak dinner hours on weekends, particularly Fridays when the place is at full capacity.
A few guests have mentioned that the pricing leans towards the higher end, which might not suit everyone's budget, especially for families looking for an affordable night out.
Some feedback notes that while the views are gorgeous, the outdoor seating can get a bit chilly during cooler months, making it less comfortable than the indoor dining options.

This is a lovely restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere and beautiful views. The food was well presented, and well cooked, and the service was fantastic. The staff were very friendly and polite. The shuttle bus takes you from the main reception to the restaurant. I had a wonderful experience here.

Works Christmas 🎄 do. Overall, it was a great evening. Food and service were okay but not spectacular and to the standard that I have come to expect from the Celtic. The winter spiced prosecco welcome drink was amazing, more of that, please 😆. The decor was exquisite in the reception and marquee where we dined. Overall, great value money. I reckon we've started a new tradition at work and will most probably do this again next year.

Really enjoyed this place. It might have been because I had not eaten anything decent for ages. But also the staff, both at the bar and the tables, were really friendly and enjoying themselves. Loved the food and the place was nicely decorated and warm on a slightly chilly evening.

For one of the cheaper options on site at Celtic Manor the food was amazing. Highly recommend the crispy pork belly starter. The steals were cooked perfectly and had a wonderful char to them. Portion sizes were very big. Service was incredibly attentive with very prompt service and check ins.
