Local tip
The hotel is opposite Newport’s multi-storey car park, which can help with planning arrival in the town centre.

The Wheatsheaf Hotel is a pub, restaurant and place to stay on St Thomas Square in Newport, offering food, drinks and accommodation from a historic town-centre building. The setting suits a range of visits, from a casual drink at the bar to a meal with friends or a short break on the Isle of Wight.

The food style centres on familiar pub cooking alongside seasonal dishes. Breakfast, lunch and evening meals are available, with a menu designed around comforting flavours and relaxed dining rather than formal restaurant service. The venue also caters for drinks-led visits, whether that means a quick pint, a glass of wine or a longer catch-up over the bar.

The drinks selection includes local ales, lagers, spirits and wines, together with non-alcoholic choices. This gives the bar a broad appeal for different occasions, including after-work drinks, social gatherings and quieter visits. The atmosphere is informal and friendly, with the building’s history adding character to the setting.

As a hotel, The Wheatsheaf provides cosy accommodation for weekend visitors, business travellers and people exploring the island. Its Newport location places it close to bus routes, while the building stands opposite the town’s multi-storey car park. That combination makes the venue a practical base for stays that include travel around the island, as well as for visitors spending time in Newport itself.

The venue works well for diners seeking traditional pub fare, drinkers looking for a choice of familiar and local beverages, and travellers wanting accommodation alongside food and hospitality. The St Thomas Square address also makes it suitable for meeting friends in a central Newport setting, with breakfast, lunch, dinner and overnight stays all forming part of the offer.
