If you’re one of those locals who can’t miss a Premier League match, The Buck is your kind of place. With 417 reviews and a solid 4.1/5 rating, it caters well to the footy enthusiasts and regulars who appreciate a good pint while catching the game.
Screen Setup & Sound
The screens here are decent-sized and strategically placed, so you’ve got a view no matter where you’re sitting. The sound system isn’t going to rattle your bones, but it does the job, letting you hear the commentators without feeling like you’re shouting over the crowd. It’s not the kind of setup you’d find at a fancy sports bar, but honestly, it doesn’t need to be.
Atmosphere & Vibe
You won’t find pretentiousness here. It’s a genuine pub where locals gather, and the vibe is relaxed. There’s a mix of jersey-wearing faithful and the Sunday crowd enjoying a pint or two. The decor is typical of a pub in Newport – unassuming but comfortable enough for a few hours of footy. It’s the sort of place where you can have a laugh with mates or strike up a chat with strangers who share your passion for the game. Just be prepared for some lively banter (and the occasional shout-out when the referee makes a dodgy call).
