Bar pub in Cardiff

“A great place to eat with a very good choice of latino food. Great service from staff and also friendly too. Access from the street was easy and no steps to negotiate. I had the burrito for main and the cheesecake for dessert...delicious! I recommend visiting and I will be back. I suggest you book a table in advance.”

“Absolutely excellent, friendly service. Lovely setting in the heart of Cardiff. An easy place to find that serves Welsh food. Never having had Welsh rarebit before, I was eager to try it but I have nothing to compare it to so perhaps that is what it was supposed to taste like. The cheddar was not in any way sharp so perhaps the other ingredients overwhelmed the taste (?). It was effectively toast with a slightly cheesy taste with very little flavor. Bland would the word. The croquets had the right texture. Crispy on the outside, creamy in the middle. But again, it felt under seasoned - although maybe that is what it is supposed to taste like? All in all, worth a visit but if Welsh food is supposed to be bland, then it is certainly that.”

“This pub was close to our Bed and Breakfast place. The food and drinks were good & reasonably priced. It was our first dinner in Wales and we enjoyed our experience. The ambiance in the pub was nice.”

“Wow, just came up from London to see my daughter who lives locally, she raved about this pub & it didn’t disappoint. The bar staff were friendly, drinks were perfect, even the locals were nice, but the food? The best fish & chips I’ve had. The others had huge burgers (chicken & Beefburger) which I tasted & were out of this world. It’s a proper pub & I can’t wait to go back!”

“Buzzing, friendly, lively bar with fantastic beer and great staff. I loved the decor style, and although it was very noisy it was great fun!”

“Booked because of the reviews. OMG did it live up to them. I had the veggie/ vegan option. Delicious. Beef looked beautiful,as did the pork Staff were so friendly Look forward to the next visit. Shame the chef doesn't share recipes- that butternut wellington was the best ❤️”

“Bought a gift voucher for the 14 meats experience for my dad for his birthday and for a man that always finds a negative in everything usually, he came from viva la Brazil Cardiff having had the best evening. The food and the server (female, in her 20s working Sunday 4:15 booking on 7/12) was fantastic apparently. Very attentive and happy. My mum has a very small appetite so just had the salah option and said the standard was fantastic very good options and food. They will be back.”

“Have had many pleasant experiences here, great beer great vibes and the staff are always friendly to me. Recommend it to all my mates who come down and frequent very often. Really good spot :)”

“Music oriented pub. The pub itself is quite small but there is a fair amount of outside seating. Nice range of real ales. One of the better pubs in WSM.”

“Sam and the team are amazing, my kids are hard to please but this place has them so content and the food was more then 5 star I’m so happy I found this little secret it’s a must go to place when visiting Weston.”

“Came here as someone had commented how good it was when he unfortunately had broken down nearly and we like to support local businesses. We had a great visit, the young man serving was very attentive and friendly, the food was extremely tasty and great portions and the whole place was clean and tidy, a nice relaxed and warm atmosphere. Definitely recommend!”

“Booked a table here and was contacted before to get our orders which I thought was a great idea! We had the wraps and they were so tasty, will definitely come back here. Service was great!”

“Amazing bar theme. I just loved the bar back with big paints served as cabinets. The cocktail menu ir was amazing. Using the tarot as theme and drinks are split by main tarot cards. Great prices and drinks presentation. It is worthy to stop for a nice cocktail”

“Banging special pizzas from the owner.. great customer service paid 20£ for two 12” the owner gave me a can and 2 sauces for free !! I recommend red chilli 10/10 amazing!!”

“A perfect night great location staff food and atmosphere. Always a great place to eat out especially in the summer. Great sunset over the Welsh coast line”

“Nice local pub. Good quality drinks and a chill backyard. The staff are kind. I recommend it.”

“Such a beautiful place. Friendly staff and Tony Morley runs an open mic night there from 8pm ish. Lots of comfortable seating and lots of screens for the sports”

“Proud bar couldn't have done more for us. We felt comfortable, safe and had a great night out. Nigel, Davy, Jen and Tash really looked after us. We were a group of 20 hens and didn't feel like we are spoiling anyones night out, and we were told this by a regular client of the bar we made their night (hopefully for good reasons lol). Drinks were good price, the space was fantastic and the DJ was on point. Lastly it is great to see a venue that only has unisex toilets. Keep up the good work!!!!”

“The guy is a legend. Food is great too”

“I almost never write reviews, but the service we received from Anmol was phenomenal. He was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, offering excellent recommendations without being intrusive. Our glasses were always full, and he even catered to specific requests with a smile. Anmol's friendly demeanor and professionalism truly made our dining experience memorable. We can't wait to come back and hope he's our server again!"”

“To call my recent evening at Las Iguanas in Cardiff Bay merely a "meal" would be an injustice. It was an event, a culinary explosion that set a new standard for dining. The atmosphere? Electric! The Latin American flavours in every dish were nothing short of sensational, and the cocktails were masterfully crafted—a true triumph, especially with the phenomenal two-for-one offer. But let me be absolutely clear: the true star, the radiant force that elevated this experience from great to legendary, was our floor server, Sage. Sage didn't just serve; she orchestrated our evening with flawless precision and captivating charm. Her attention was hawk-like, anticipating our every need before we even voiced it. When we had a minor request, she handled it with a confident flourish and an immediate resolution that left us stunned by her professionalism. Her genuine warmth wasn't just friendly—it was magnetic. In a bustling, high-energy environment, Sage possessed a poise and a radiant positive energy that is incredibly rare. She made us feel like royalty, and that level of dedicated, passionate hospitality is priceless. Sage is, without exaggeration, a monumental asset to the Cardiff Bay location, representing the pinnacle of customer service. Do not just visit Las Iguanas; demand to be seated in Sage's section! We will be returning to revel in this extraordinary experience again and again. Five stars is barely enough!”

“Visited with two friends and we all loved our experience! I ordered the bbq burger, a side caesar salad, and shared fries, all of which were delicious. We also had some of the £5 cocktails, which were pretty great for the price. Our server was really attentive as well :)”

“Over the years I have stayed at many hotels, each usually with their own restaurant, few are good, some mediocre and many are poor. Out of all the hotels I've stayed at I'm happy to say that the Chefs at this restaurant are why I return and why I'd say it's somewhere within my personal top 3 hotel restaurants I've dined at. The food is always genuinely excellent, a particular favourite is the scotch egg with pea puree and bacon jam... a good reason in itself to return! The pork belly with fennel, cabbage, potato gratin and sage stuffing is another excellent dish, each element is clearly treated with care and skill which absolutely shows in the finished product. Thank you to the chef for making another night away from home a little more tolerable by way of excellent cookery.”

“Special & “an Experience” - there is no other way to describe it except to say good value too. The decor is amazing and the service formal but in a wonderful way. It’s not somewhere to dash in and dash out. Rather it’s somewhere to relax and soak up the experience. Arguably, other places can sell better perhaps but none will rival will rival the range of menu options or the experience. The central bar island is a work of art and the venue loaded with wonderfully tended plants and interesting art. Where else can you have Champagne for breakfast?”

“Nice pub near the football stadium. Good banter before and after game.”

“We got the moussaka, the pastitsio, the saganaki with honey, and the lamb skewer and it was all brilliant! The saganaki and lamb skewer I'd say we're particular standouts but it was all quite good.”

“I came here for some food and the atmosphere was lovely. Max was amazing to talk to and treated me so kindly. Lots of friendly people here, definitely a place to stop off if you're in need of some good food!”

“Had a great experience booking my works Christmas party here for 15 people! Staff were incredibly helpful and engaging. Food and Drinks were excellent. Great vegan options! Highly recommend!”

“My regular go to and every time I go in it's always such a vibe! The staff are super lovely, the GM is incredibly professional and attentive, the food is fantastic I'm such a sucker for the pizzas and the portions are incredible for what you're paying! The playlist is great too. It's clean and well looked after. It's definitely a buzzing atmosphere on match days too! Always the first place I recommend to anyone visiting! And the beer selection is the best in Cardiff, I'm always discovering new beers I love, and there's a good rotation so I can try something new frequently! Weekly live music as well which is always fun to change up the night.”
