Brewhouse in Cardiff

Only drinking and listening to the live music. Great atmosphere as ever, lots of people dancing and enjoying themselves. We always like the Brewhouse

Lovely food, variety of reasonably priced drinks, live music and great atmosphere. Thank you Brewhouse Cardiff for a great night. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed 👊

Can't remember much. Must have been good.....

Great venue for live music. Only downfall is that they've installed alot of seating by/in the dance floor area, which makes the space very tight!

Real gem. Live music what's not to like!

Love it here live music great service and atmosphere

Not for me. But if you are not me and 30 years younger.... 😂

Brewhouse Cardiff has become one of my go-to spots over the years which always has great live music, however ive had a range of experiences here. Back in 2021, I unfortunately there was a situation where I faced some unwarranted physical abuse. It was handled poorly by security. It left a bit of a bad taste at the time, but thankfully, my experiences since then have been much better. In 2024, I’ve enjoyed many great nights at Brewhouse. The staff have been consistently friendly creating a positive atmosphere that keeps me coming back. I’ve also met some really attractive and charming people here – especially the posh women who add a fun dynamic to the place. One of the best parts of Brewhouse is the crowd, especially the friendly folks from the Valleys. They bring a lively, down-to-earth energy to the venue that makes it a unique spot in Cardiff. The vibe here is always great for a night out. Brewhouse has recently proven itself to be a solid choice for a memorable night out in Cardiff.

One of my favourite places to go in Cardiff. Always great music and a great selection of beer. Never seen any trouble

Great venue , fabulous live music , friendly staff great atmosphere x

Visited on a Sunday for lunch and football. Food was ok and good value for big boxed food it you enjoy that kind of food, but the menus needed a wipe down! The service was Ok at the start, but no acknowledgement or customer service from our server... Though when we had a cocktail then waitress was great and made us an off menu drinks which was delicious and greatly appreciated.

The wings were good... Service was polite and efficient and the live entertainment was engaging.

Had a brilliant night here watching Jammy and the Dodgers. Great beer's and atmosphere.

Great afternoon for food and cake back for a bit of music in the night too

Terrible service , miserable bar staff who couldn't be bothered to raise a smile , whilst making me my worst mojito I've ever had in my life ..literally slapped the mint between the palms of her hands , poured in white rum some kind of made up lime syrup and lemonade...2 cocktails 1 pint and a jack and coke 49 quid. I asked for a receipt and was told in anger the machine was broken that printed receipts...if your staff can't make cocktails then don't put them on your menu....I'll never go back

Always above average. A good time.

A great atmosphere, good choice of drinks, friendly staff and brilliant live music.

Fantastic love it here great prices great bands just fantastic 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What a great afternoon. First time to visit here and would recommend. You can't beat a beer and live music on a Saturday afternoon. Food was very nice, staff great and a great happy vibe through the building. Even the kids that were dragged in by mums and dad's enjoyed the atmosphere. Big thumbs up and 100% recommend a visit next time you are in Cardiff I cant wait to go back.

Awful overcrowded venue, terrible steep narrow stairs to toilets!!! BULLY boy bouncers using illegal vascular restraints (choke holds) Should not be used by SIA badge holders, excessive force when not required! Shame on you Croeso pubs. Will never spend another £££ in any of your venues!!!

Live bands and a great atmosphere one of my fave places

Love a night out in brewhouse, great music, great atmosphere, great staff

Great place for a night out live music allways busy great atmosphere

Great staff, fantastic atmosphere.

What a place for live music, and a great atmosphere. My friends and I went here on a Sunday, we seen such good bands with great covers and really enjoyed! Reasonably priced drinks, too.

Great live music... always entertaining

Cracking live music and a fantastic atmosphere!!! Busy but super enjoyable!

The bar staff was very fast on the drinks , nice place shake to the music

Great place to go for Live music and sports

Great music, great atmosphere, love the extended happy hour

First visit to the brewhouse,but not my last. Friendly bar staff,live music 3 great acts and a very friendly atmosphere. 👍👍👍

Went here with colleagues for farewell drinks of a colleague leaving us. Booked a table in advance which was quickly cleared for us on arrival. Staff were friendly and pleasant. Good range of drinks at the bar at reasonable prices. Although I didn't have food those who did enjoyed theirs. Only downside was that the nusic was a bit loud when trying to talk

Disappointing experience, not busy but ignored ....left without getting any service...head over to ballie ballerson 100% better customer experience

Fabulous atmosphere Fabulous music 🎶

One of the best nights in Cardiff, great bar staff, friendly door staff top music venue

I can't comment on service or food as I didn't go to the bar. The music was great aswell as the atmosphere. Highly recommend as we had a great time

They had gluten free beer available which was a bonus as I fancied something different than cider. Cider selection was basic. Bar staff welcoming, prices good for Cardiff and atmosphere was decent. We went on a Thursday after work and it was nice and busy, I'd go back.

My friends and I have been visiting Brewhouse for many years now and we’ve always loved it, always our go to place for a catch up and a 2 for 1 cocktail each. Atmosphere is always good, pricing is reasonable and the live music is fab. Unfortunately for the pass couple of years there’s been a really unpleasant barmaid working and on our last visit she was extremely rude and unprofessional she also walked passed our table later on and made a comment towards us. I requested to talk to the manager, a dark haired gentleman with glasses- he also was very unprofessional and rude. Don’t think we will be returning any time soon

Cardiff No. 1 Live Music Venue. The live gigs here are just exceptional!! The crowd is great and full of life. A must visit in Wales.

The beer selection at the bar was limited, it would be nice to have some cash ales rather than keg and maybe have some local beers too.

Really good atmosphere with the live band, I would ask the venue to redesign toilet access when the place in rammed it's difficult to get to toilets safely. Two of our party were bumped into as some idiots fell down the stairs

Bouncers got a god complex, Stepped outside for 1 minute, refused to let me back in. after explaining to him that all my stuff and my friends where inside was left with no money or phone. Refused to at least tell my friends where I am. had to wait till my friends came out looking for me. What an absolute c u next Tuesday, clearly this man is thick and wasn’t loved, as no compassion or thought process was in his decision making, think he just wanted to ruin someone’s night tbh

Good music venue but drink prices are a bit extortionate

Could do with a good clean. Staff were pleasant

Always an amazing atmosphere with some fantastic band playing live

Great atmosphere when we went mixed ages on a Sunday night. Live band playing really enjoyed. Lovely friendly staff

Brilliant place for some drinks and dancing if you like live music good atmosphere and drinks are very reasonable for Cardiff service and staff friendly all good.

Had our Xmas party here, the food and staff were great. We did have an issue with some of the other customers but this is no fault of the venue's.

Absolutely brilliant atmosphere.

Great bar with fantastic live music

Went there after the game . Place was packed .. and such a great energy Wales had lost (sorry chaps).. but their welcome and their cheer was obvious The live music was brilliant!

A reference for Live Music Unmissable meeting for music enthusiasts.

Great evening out. Fabulous atmosphere

After being in the bar most of the evening I came outside the smoking area for a few minutes the bouncer would not let me back inside although he was happily letting other girls in that entrance 🙄, he told me I'd have to go to the front and queue back up. I couldn't contact my friends all my things were inside. By the time I had queued back up and got back in they had gone to look for me so I had to walk home, no phone, no money . Absolutely disgusting

To enjoy local drinks before a match or before a match at the stadium

Fantastic place to visit for residents and visitors, been twice now both times the live music has been fantastic. Would highly recommend for poeple to atleast have a pint.

Brilliant bar. Always have plenty of drink deals on. Superb live music. Always visit when I come to Cardiff

Popped in around 9.30 on a Saturday night to see the live band. Greeted by 4 security staff pinning a guy on the floor and then escorting him out. Understand they can't control customers but perhaps could have been handled better and should they have let someone in there in that drunken state firstly? Live band came on and singing was very bad, for a key performance and peek time, these guys didn't cut it off the mustard. Less singing and more shouting down the mic. Left after 2 songs and drinks being poured from mezzanine level on to us. Could have been a bad night but, not give me any enthusiasm to return soon.

Lovely people lovely place would come here again

Got kicked out for hugging a friend, apparently I was dealing drugs. Searched me and found nothing, still got pushed out. Yikessssss

Amazing bands on at the weekends. Always a place me and my friends go to and tend to stay at as the atmosphere is so good! Prices on drinks aint to bad neither, especially their offers. A great size and location.

Live music for the whole family

Awful place wish I could give it zero. Small venue which was overcrowded also ridiculous toilets up steep stairs. Won’t be back!

Thank you to all at Brewhouse. Was an amazing experience loved by all us Saffas. Hopefully be back again. Happy New Year to you all. Mandy

Get staff behind the bar who can understand the Welsh accent. Got thrown out becuse the waitress ballsed up my order twice. How can you confuse a pint if carling with a bacardi and then charge you 24 quid and throw you out. Then she involves the bouncers. Very pissed off that the barmaid lied because she was crap at her job. Bouncer was OK but said no matter what he had to believe the staff.

It's the place to be in Cardiff.

Good night, great music clean toilets.

15:00. Went for a beer. Nobody serving or bothered. If you're open have the courtesy to have someone on duty.

Ideal place to eat before the big games at the Principality Stadium.

Great venue with live music all night long. Drinks are good price and lots of good offers on. Food is a bit hit and miss but there are plenty of options on the menu.

Great night see you again in a few weeks

Staff are great particularly Rory who was very helpful and efficient behind the bar. The down side was the live music which was terrible and out of date, also the toilets were very old and not that clean!

Had a good lunch. The hotdogs were especially delicious and the ambience was lovely. Like to call out the good service of Kirk. He was very patient in explaining to us the menu sets as well as the wide varieties of beer available. All in a delightful experience.

Visited Thursday. Great live music, decent beer, lively mid evening. Went back midnight quieter but music volume still maxed, suggest turning down a bit when bar quieter.

Only had drinks,but great atmosphere 👌

Horrendous service here tonight. The attitude on the bouncers was sickening.

Love Brewhouse, Always in here with work mates. Great night out for a bit of Live music. Never eaten here yet.

Very lively bar with great live music

Good food, drinks & friendly staff

Very lively bar!!! Great live music!! Only downside is the place was way too hot 🔥 like a sauna in there ha

Considering it was an international weekend, the wait at the bar was super short, great atmosphere as always, and bouncers were right on it. Which is a strange thing to say I know but it was busy and a few drinks had by all, but they were not kicking off just subtle and keep the place rocking. Defo recommend.

Excellent bar and a great atmosphere. The live music is always really good 👍

Good venue. Great bit of music and the live band were good too

Always a goof. Ight, reasonably priced drinks

Good crack, friendly staff and reasonable prices! And fantastic pub food!!

Never eaten there, doubt if I will now. . Shocking service recently a Friday night , bar staff sexist and ageist. Disrespectful and sexist bouncer, thought he was God's gift to women, asking me to return with a finger come here. I don't drink and don't come to anyone's beckon call, whoever you are . Doubt I will be back for a long time, customer service training needed on all accounts especially with bar etiquette!

Great atmosphere with good live music.

A reyht good live 2-person band was there on 18/07/23 evening

Good for live music 7 days a week and tend to have offers on drinks a lot of the time.

Great atmosphere. Great music.

Love this place ❤ Great singers and atmosphere Prices reasonable for Cardiff

Super pub, super ambiance avec live music.

Didn't have food but, Great place, reasonable prices, friendly atmosphere and always good entertainment

Great place, good location and always a lively atmosphere, i just can't cope with how many people they let in, i'd honestly rather go to jail for a month than que at the bar here for a round, then trying to escape back through the crowd with a full drink is another mission

Great day plus night out in here, a great atmosphere every time

One of the best live music venues in Cardiff. Gets busy quickly so I’d recommend getting in early if you want a table or seat.

Great venue good priced drinks range quality entertainment.

It's a great place on a night out. If you love live and loud music, this is the place for you. Service was ok, but it was very busy and the staff were trying to serve so many people. Unfortunately, Wheel chair access maybe abit of an issue due to so many different levels around the place. The toilets are also upstairs. The door staff were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere felt like going to a gig. It's worth a visit.

Awesome bar and obviously great music!
