We hadn't been able to book a table when we rang ahead, but were told we could sit outside. When we arrived we went into the Silver Circle gin distillery which is adjacent. We could order our drinks and food from the Pig & Apple and before the food arrived we were invited in to the main building as they had a table unexpectedly available. Our food was delicious, although we definitely over ordered. The Moldovan Pinot Grigio was great and very reasonably priced. Will.return for sure.. Vegetarian options: Very tasty vegan burger available

We came here as part of a pre-booked event and it really didn't disappoint. There was live music and plenty of people around to create a lovely afternoon/evening. I'd heard that the food was fantastic and it really was. I had a sticky chicken burger and it was sensational. I then washed it down with a few cocktails 😄 The drinks on offer were also very varied. Loads of choice. This was my first time visiting and I will definitely be going back. Apparently you have to book early to avoid disappointment.

Our son treated us to a meal at The Pig and Apple after seeing the reviews. Would highly recommend it to other families and friends. The food was good quality, nice and hot and really filled you up. A good selection of beef, chicken and veggie burgers. There were some desserts on offer but we were too full for those.

Wow wow wow !! If u haven't even here yet u really need to. U best book soon as its a hell of a wait to get a table. Well worth it tho. The food is UNREAL. Honestly the best burger I've ever eaten. Their spicy chicken strips are another level. Their fries are light and crispy and full of flavour. The place is immaculately clean, all the servers are amazing. Really well priced too. I'd give this place 6 stars if I could and would recommend to everybody. One of the best meals we've had in a very long time. Get it booked guys, u will not be disappointed.

Wowwowow Not only the best burger I've ever eaten, one of the best meals I've ever eaten full stop. The quality of beef is very noticeable. Even the fries were incredible and so crispy. Seriously, if you haven't been here yet, this place NEEDS to be on your list! What a hidden gem. The price was very reasonable as well. Cheaper than Five guys but miles better.

I booked here for my husbands birthday as we've heard nothing but good things about the burgers, and he's a burger lover. I was a bit worried being vegan that I wouldn't be able to have a good meal here but I worried over nothing. I messaged ahead and was told they do vegan options, on the day the staff were great, friendly and knowledgable. All the vegetarian burgers could be made vegan! They even had vegan cheese so it wasn't just removing any animal products they actually had alternatives. I had the homemade mushroom and butterbean burger it was lovely but the highlight for me was my side of salt and pepper smiley faces! Sooo good! and cooked to perfection! I'm still craving them now! My husband had the Korean BBQ fries and the Jess' loaded cluckin' and really enjoyed both! Very generous portions he couldn't finish his. Only negatives which I feel the food and service overrides is there was a little mix up when we arrived, our table was given to a table who had arrived before us with more guests than they book but it was quickly sorted. Also no vegan dessert, not that I could have fitted it in! Overall very enjoyable, great to have options for vegan in a place you wouldn't assume would and to have 3 options is even better! We will be booking again.

What lovely food. I had an amazing chicken burger and my hubbie had a beef burger. Both delicious. The service was great, the team stagger the sittings well so there isn't too much waiting time. There was also a humbles brewery ale which was a nice touch. Thanks for a lovely lunch!

The Pig and Apple is a really nice little restaurant on a farm in the beautiful hills above Monmouth. Although they sell burgers and fried chicken, you wouldn't really call it "fast food", it's just simple food cooked and presented beautifully. They've got a waiting list as long as your arm - you need to book weeks in advance and it's easy to see why. Well worth a visit, great for families, couples and groups. Car needed though...They also do take away! Update: Amazing sticky chicken! That sauce on the chicken is ridiculously good - they could honestly sell it in jars!....in fact, if the owners read this, please do that! :D

The location in a working farm was quite cool. Also big kudos for allowing dogs inside. I found the food OK. Fries were dripping in oil, the burger buns were different but in the end didn't complement the burgers. Burger was juicy and tasty. Service was OK. I think they were just opening and struggling to get going. They were nice though. Worth the experience but wouldn't necessarily come back for food regularly.

Excellent service. Great location. Located (literally) in the middle of a working farmyard down a quiet lane in Monmouthshire. Having said that, really easy to access. Arriving on the edge of the farm buildings, you make your way past the edible garden and into the middle of the farm buildings, many of which contained livestock in varying stages of growth, from young piglets, through goats to a full on mature herd of cattle, complete with farmyard noises and smells, it may be a bit of a suprise for city folk. The restaurant is located in a barn, with a suitably rustic decor, wood burner heating and is very much what you see is what you get. P&A works on two sittings per night, it's well worth (and good manners) to arrive early. Outside seating is available. The menu is varied(meat and Vega/veggi), although visiting a farm burger joint then eating veggie is anathema to me! Each to their own. The burgers are all generous and very well priced, with a new range of extras. Be very careful when ordering - it's easy to overdo it! Drinks are a good selection of beers wines and ciders with a local flavour. There are desserts for the brave! Basically, a great value, mid priced quirky rural destination venue, probably the best burgers in the area, worth a visit.
