Pub in Cardiff

“Venue, food and staff are wonderful! Held a baby shower in the party room upstairs and was the perfect venue. We had the entire upstairs to ourselves with room to decorate, machine to play music, fridge to store food and drinks and terrace outside. We had a hot buffet with skewers for food and everyone complimented how amazing the food was. The staff were super attentive regularly checking we had everything we needed. Thanks so much for all of your help Agit!”

“Beautiful pub. Huge car park. Alpaca area is great if you have kids. Sunday roast is very nice. Locals are really friendly too and the pub in general is so welcoming to all.”

“Called on a Saturday evening. Pub really lively and bouncing with karaoke on. Has been done out since I last visited and now looks great inside.”

“Came for sunday lunch, never been before. I honestly cant recall a better sunday roast. Highly recommend this place. Great value and only 15 minutes on the train from cardiff followed by a 10 minute walk through the village”

“Five of us went to celebrate a birthday. The staff were very friendly and it was a very relaxed atmosphere. The food was lovely especially the honey butter chicken drumsticks, nothing was left on our plates! The cocktails were also first class. Would definitely recommend.”

“The old fella's pub of choice, they serve Directors a good strong beer. Dog friendly and lovely staff, Recommend.”

“A great place for a quietish drink. Thursday night is Acoustic Music night. The Beer Festival and the Cider Festival (each annually) is always good, but the evening sessions can get a little too loud, musically, were as the daytime sessions are very good. Good priced ale and cider always on tap.”

“Definitely worth a visit! I popped in for a pint this afternoon after seeing the pub is now back open. I was welcomed by the new landlord Josh he was really friendly and easy to get along with. My beer perfect and I was made to feel at home. I look forward to returning and I can't wait to try a burger when the kitchen's open.”

“What a great boozer. Popped in for a quick pint but ended staying for a couple as the atmosphere was so warm. Wished I had time to stay longer. Old school style pub and mean that in the most positive of ways. I'll be going back for sure!”

“We had the best time here. The burger pop up was AMAZING. The staff went out of their way to accommodate our questions and needs. They took an immediate interest in our dog and gave him treats and a lot of fuss. They provided tasters of the drinks we were unsure of which was a lovely touch. I can’t understate how much of a good time we had here!”

“Been going here for a year now, always the best cut at Acute. Jake is a great barber, great attention to detail and I always leave feeling fresh! 10/10 would recommend!”

“Called in for a pint as the Italian across the way was fully booked. Nice atmosphere. Good local beer. Girl behind the bar couldn't have been more friendly and helpful suggesting other options for a meal. Would have like to stayed longer. Great little pub.”

“A friendly, cosy bar serving excellent steaks and pies. Service was friendly and efficient.”

“Great place, tucked away, and staff were lovely. The room was perfect and had wifi and looked over the fields and geese in fields also. Breakfast was lovely and again staff great. Overall a great experience and would book again.”

“Lovely, family run local pub. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming!”

“We went for the fondue, and it was a great experience! We were very taken by the wine vending machines. Overall, it was something unique, and we’ll definitely go again.”

“We didn't have food, but the drinks were very nice. Small French cafe feel but very busy. Dog friendly and casual. Decor was lovely and gave pleasant ambience with warm lighting. More frequent toilet checks would be good as the unisex loos were well used by some patrons who were 'directionally challenged'. All in all a really nice stop for a pint with cute dogs to look at.”

“A wonderful little hidden cider farm. It was a wonderful stroll around the small orchard and relax in the hammocks there. The little shop was very pleasant, and staff very friendly. It was nice to feed the pigs whilst on our visit. Will return when next this way”

“We had a lovely evening and the meal was very filling. A lovely surprise was the singer singing some Christmas classics. As always the staff are excellent.”

“Amazing from start to finish service was amazing food was amazing ! Will definitely be back ! Waiters couldn’t do enough for us ! Chefs amazing! food is the best restaurant food I have tasted in a long time thank you”

“Lovely shisha bar. Staff friendly nothing was too much trouble. Food outstanding. Relaxed environment would 100% recommend to anyway. First time me and my wife visited and would definitely come back again”

“Amazing atmosphere for this small venue in the centre of Cardiff. Saw Slow Pulp and it was phenomenal, staff were kind, music sounded great. Nothing to complain about apart from how boiling it was in there but didn’t ruin the experience.”

“Great old style pub in Central Cardiff. Staff are extremely friendly. Great venue for pre drinks If you are going to Utilita Areana. Plenty of car parks near by.”

“Tasty food, first time trying Syrian food and it did not disappoint. So many different flavours, nice menu and friendly staff. Not to mention the beautiful interior decor.”

“The food at the Thackeray is always consistent with high quality food. They offer the best roast dinner in Wales! They change the daily specials menu, daily and have unique options. They offer a great selection of drinks - including cocktails and wine. The staff are always friendly and offer great service. Highly recommend.”

“Forest time ive been here and really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, great food, great service and the ability to take my dogs in. We'll defo be back soon”

“Had a lovely meal after work with my wife. The food was lovely and the service was fantastic. Christian is a real credit to you and was very attentive, his service was excellent. Thank you!”

“Best Sunday dinner that we’ve eaten at a pub/ restaurant in a long time. Food was high quality and beautifully cooked. Two of our party are chefs so they know what they’re talking about! Will definitely return. Only niggle was we couldn’t park in the car park as it was a busy Sunday lunchtime”

“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.”

“Absolutely cracking Sunday Roast. Wonderful, friendly service. Good portions and extra gravy without asking! We will be back!”
