Elevens Bar & Grill in Cardiff

Such lovely staff. Really helpful and always had a smile. I'm most definitely be going back and trying something else on there menu just because of their customer service and attitude at the work place.

Table service only. Very strange

Food pretty lame, no better than average, bit below really. Service and drinks good

They door man always remembers went Saturday not been for months greeted us like family maked us most welcome then atmosphere was very good so we decided to have food that was very nice reasonably priced. On the way out doorman thanked us for coming surely we should be thanking him for an enjoyable evening 😀 to all the staff thank you 😊 see u all soon definitely be back again

Terrible service. Scanned the QR code on the table and ordered. Waited 20 minutes and nothing was served. Followed up at the bar and they insisted it was served, turned out it was served to the table next to us. Waitress then said she would serve again, but instead of Grey Goose vodka, we were palmed off with flavoured house vodka. After querying it, the bar staff insisted it was Grey Goose Vodka, it absolutely was not! Grey Goose does not taste like fruits! I own and manage bars and it has vindicated my decision to never use self ordering. Very poor service.

George and Dylan were fantastic! Amazing service and amazingly fast! Great Guinness. Definitely recommend for sport!

Took my grandson in to see the bar as he is an avid Rangers fan loved all the memorabilia thank you for allowing is in to take photos, staff were so lovely

The people running the place where so friendly. Saturday night, when there was a fight on. The place was full. However the staff member still let us in and gave us a seat. Appreciated

Was quiet when we went but still a great bar. Digital service worked seamlessly

Expected expensive and overrated bumf, but was pleasantly surprised. Very reasonable and polite staff. Decent playlist.

Visited here a couple of times over the course of our stay as it was so nice. We've had a couple of really warm days so the air conditioning was a definite plus and they also offer a couple of outside seating areas with views of the castle. Cannot express how happy I was that it wasn't only Inches (🤢) cider but there was Cornish Orchards which was very scrummy 😁😁😁 Staff here are lovely and obviously care about their regulars but are also engaging with the randoms like us. Bar has a really pleasant vibe, very relaxed and also some really good playlists. (Loved the poster in the toilets 🤣) Will deffo be back. Highly recommend 👍🏻😁👍🏻

Went for lunch with some work colleagues. Food was lovely and good value. Staff were friendly will definitely be back to try something else

Rude staff member,scan a code for a drink. Soulless atmosphere

Fab place to eat and watch sport too

Good pub to watch football and grab food too. Using QR code for service which is very quick and efficient. Book tables in advance.

Brilliant staff. Atmosphere was great. We were upstairs for our Badminton leagues annual presentation awards...

Nice bar, but you can't send money in there, only a card on the table. i didn't like it. it feel right for me .

This is a great sports bar. Great atmosphere and service. Highly recommended.

Great place to watch the football.

Great place to catch any live sport and plenty of beers to pick from. Great atmosphere on Wales football nights especially

Great atmosphere, tasty food and most importantly friendly staff, best bar in Cardiff for sports.

Service and atmosphere great! Food is decent too but nothing too special, however will definitely return as venue is great

Good selection of beers, I enjoyed a couple of gluten free largers. However the 11p admin fee for ordering a drink through the app is a bit steep. Staff friendly but kept spilling drinks when bringing them over to the tables and didn't wipe clean.

Lovely decorated sport restaurant/ bar, good selection of drinks and lots of Television screens to watch live sport on. Food was nice but certainly not something to write home about, however the food and drinks are very reasonably priced. If you’re looking for somewhere to watch some sport and a quiet meal/ drink, you will enjoy here.

Had the wings and halloumi! Very tasty!

Went in here on Sunday 12th May and saw a grown man crying in the middle of an otherwise deadly silent pub. I asked a toothless gentleman what was going on and he said that 'the bears have lost it all'. I couldn't see any bears, just a lot of morbidly obese men wearing ill fitting blue tops that had food stains al over them. Won't be back.

Good food, good service and good value for Cardiff

Great place to watch sport, good selection of beers and food

Soleless and pretentious. You are not allowed to order at the bar, everything is done on your phone with a tip to Google on every order. Staff I assume are lovely, but walk around like they are in a 1984 novel. Food was ok. Football coverage good. Bring back Dempsey's

A must go to for any football/sports fan. The memorabilia on display is great! The food and drink here is also amazing with a great atmosphere on game days. Highly recommend!

Gareth Bale’s restaurant was a cool spot, but probably not the best spot ever to watch a Wales football match. The place ended up filling up a bit with fans watching the game, but the atmosphere wasn’t super great/passionate. I’m sure that’s partly due to it being a newer spot. I ordered the steak & chips. The steak was good, but wasn’t one to write home about. I did enjoy the chimichurri sauce on the steak and the onions and arugula garnish on the side. The chips were decent and had a nice crisp to them. Ordering the food from the QR code in the table wasn’t super clear and we ended up ordering additional sides (sweet potato fries, mozzarella sticks, onion rings, and the curry dough balls) when we thought we were ordering them in place of the chips. The sides were all good though with the sweet potato fries being my favorite. We got the Oreo Fudge Sunday which was a perfect dessert to share between the 3 us. It was quite good! We tried the 3 “Bale Beers” which were all pretty good! The Bale glasses were a nice touch too! The decor around the place is pretty cool, from the player jerseys to the replica champions league trophy and the boots that he scored the bicycle kick against Liverpool in the champions league final in Cardiff. Pretty special stuff.

THE place to go to watch any big sporting event! The simplicity of the self-service/scanning system works a treat! The staff are never too far away & happy to help. For a so-called sports bar, the food is superb!! Never had a bad experience visiting Elevens! PLEASE NOTE If you do decide to go, I highly advise booking a table in advance to avoid disappointment.

Staff are very friendly and the food is good. Suitable for groups.

This place isn’t underappreciated. “must do” when visiting Cardiff if you are a sports fan! Situated immediately across from the ancient and beautiful part of Castle, 11 bar is a sports fans Paradise. Owned by Gareth Bale it is obviously full of cool sports memorabilia. It was very quiet when we attended midday. The facility is clean, sleek, and plenty of televisions for the sports enthusiast. It takes time to browse all the really neat and varied sports collectibles in the facility. The staff were amazingly friendly, and nothing was an imposition for them. We absolutely plan on going each time we visit Cardiff.

Great atmosphere and enjoyed the memorabilla. Friendly barman!

Came here with 4 friends who were visiting cardiff and they were all drinking in a round via the app. I had the car and didn't want to go to expence of entering into a very expensive round ( it's expensive in here). I said to my friends that I'll get my own and came downstairs to get a drink from the bar. There were two bar staff standing around doing nothing so I politely asked for a drink with the aim of paying with my card. I was flatly refused saying I had to order via the app. I don't take my phone on a Saturday nights as I may lose it so couldn'tdo that. So. The member of staff with purple hair refused a sale. As they were doing not much at the time, it would have hardly killed them to serve me a drink from the bar. Gareth Bale you have a really bad policy that excludes your customers and the girl that refused me a drink, didn't care less or offered any kind of apology. I can't see this bar staying open for much longer either. It's not a sports bar as it offered one channel of sport on all screens. There's zero atmosphere in here and its dark, gloomy and full of blokes. The bar had emptied out by 9pm on a Saturday night and I can totally see why. Won't be back. Dempseys was so much better and had heart and soul and live music upstairs to boot. 0 out of 10 Ellevens.

Food and drinks were great however very difficult to order and pay if you don’t do it via their app on each table as one of my party found out

The burgers and loaded fries were really good,but the pizzas were below par.

Very mediocre place, staff were not helpful at all and just said check the online menu, thanks I just did that and that’s why I’m asking you a question! Stopped serving us 1.5 hours before close because not enough people were there, it’s almost as if they didn’t want our money

Jumbo is full from burger, great burger and great beer with brilliant company, can’t wait to be back again With the lads for more beers and food

Fab bar to go to for all sports lover

Brilliant atmosphere and great pub for sport but why oh why make people download an app to just buy a drink. Too much effort for the outcome

This is a solid sports themed bar & grill. Table service is nice and quick, even when the venue is completely full. Food was much better than expected, all the dishes we ordered were great to eat while watching football. Ordering via the QR code was seamless. The only negative was the volume of the venue when full, as it was so loud, it was hard to talk.

A grown up Bar with good food, safe, good music and happy staff.

Great place to watch football, rugby and F1. The drinks are reasonably priced as is the food. Only find it weird all the ordering needs to be done via app when there a bar upstairs and down

We took our son for his 10th birthday and a member of staff called Ryan has created a moment that my son will never forget. Ryan was brilliant with everything but what he did for my boy goes above and beyond. Coming to the table with a Gareth Bale signed photo to give him left him emotionally broken with joy. Ryan, we will never forget what you did for our son on his birthday. Bale is Tyler's hero and the only way it could have been any better would be to meet the man himself. We have spent loads on presents for his birthday but this moment from Ryan is priceless. Thank you so much.

Great venue, great food and drink, definately give it a go if your in Cardiff. You won't be disappointed.

Preferred Dempsey's. Food was quite nice but everything is overpriced.

Turned up so many times only to be turned away because we haven't booked a table. Then forced to order by the app - whilst the bar is dead, then pay an admin fee for the pleasure. Fantastic! Have a word Gaz.

Massive sport fan, popped in here as it opened for lunch. Staff were fun and friendly. Service was speedy, food selection was good and tasty when it arrived after a short time. Wondered around the place and got to see some great prices of sports memorabilia. Tried the specialist beer and ale, really nice and light. Real enjoyable few hours and a good atmosphere, next time in Cardiff will be coming back!

I personally am not a sports fan, but anywhere you sit you'll get a good view of whatever games on, staff are happy enough to change it over

Really comfortable place to watch live sport with a beer. The aircon upstairs was appreciated on a humid day. Friendly and helpful staff and the signed shirts were impressive. Will return

Had a really good meal and best pint of Guinness I've had in ages.

Always a great place to go, even better when there is a football match on, expecially a wales game.

Great place for a drink, excellent position opposite Castle

Really nice sports pub that anyone can enjoy

Tables booked for my nephews 21st birthday .. lovely atmosphere food was delicious .. service was ok, but this is no reflection on the staff but there should have been more the young boys that served us were rushed off their feet and the one in particular seemed a bit stressed .. the app to order food/drinks should be looked at because they didn't seem to know who was ordering what when they were bringing it to our table but apart from that it was generally a really good day and would definitely return

Was a bit apprehensive to come with my girlfriend and her friend but the service was great, food was amazing and definitely good value for money. Would definitely return.

What an outstanding place. Just popped in with the family for a quick drink. Barman such a nice helpful fella we added food as well. Couldn’t have been more helpful. Food was great. Bowl of water for dogs. Highly recommend to anyone passing.

Nice pub / sports bar with a lunch special for a good price.

Took my son to Elevens for his Birthday as he is a lover of sport and Gareth Bale. The staff are really friendly, let us take our son upstairs to see all of the memorabilia. Food was well priced and service was excellent. Great time had by all of us. Looking forward to returning soon. Big thank you to the lovely blonde lady that served us :-) 18-7-23 6pm

Great place, not a huge amount of drinks to offer so could do with more.

Listed on Google as a Celtic supporter bar IT IS NOT THERE'S NOT EVEN A CELTIC STRIP BUT THERES A RANGERS 1. ONWER is Welshmen Garth bale 1 staff member was polite and the other day two where diffanently terrible. Was asked to leave because I had a Celtic strip on. Disgusting DO NOT GO the glasses where dirty and the beer was subpar at best

Really brilliant bar. The staff were really friendly and attentive and the food was freshly made to order very nice. The drinks were cold and very refreshing, all around a great experience. The decorations are also brilliant for anyone interested in a range of sports as the shirts displayed are all very interesting.

Only went for a few drinks before a concert at the castle. Staff were more than helpful (especially the doorman). Great atmosphere considering the football was on.

Went here to watch football and had food and drinks. The food was lovely and reasonably priced but the drinks were a terrible price a non alcoholic Guinness in a can was £5.60 and a pint of Stella was £6.40. Not sure if the prices are like this all the time or just increased due to trying to make money out of a big group.

Service quick, like the QR code ordering. Lovely staff. Food was run-of-the-mill. Good location for Principality and Castle events.

It's fine here, great for sport, but having had such a fondness for Dempseys (it's prior incarnation) it's hard for me to enjoy. I'm like one of those old blokes off of First Dates who's true love has died, so they're now there with a perfectly acceptable alternative, but you can never replace what you had before. Even if it did have a funny smell.

Watched the Europa Conference league here. Full up with West ham fans. What a great night.

Great little bar with good food

Amazing food and very well priced

The food and the atmosphere is great , the app didnt work it took 20 mins(after going to bar to check inbetween and told use WiFi and keep trying ) and In the end had to go to the bar , where I was originally told , if you don't have a phone you can't get served , in fairness they did serve with card , but I think the qr code order thing is business limiting.

Great service but food was a bit disappointing, burger was not well done and buns were over toasted, good beer selection tho

Elevens ligger mitt emot slottet i Cardiff. Fotbollsstjärnan Gareth Bale, som spelat för Real Madrid o i Wales landslag, äger Puben. Jag åt "Bale Ale BBQ PulledPork Burger" och drack en Bale Lager. Både hamburgaren och ölen var goda. Det är en stor Pub med en massa bilder på Bale. Servicen var bra!

Great sports bar, good drinks and food. Lots of screens, F1 and Prem was on

Tremendo ambiente del pub inglés Elevens. Buenísimo como cada día se llena de gente a tomarse 1 copa y disfrutar de los programas televisivos que emiten. La comida es la clásica que sirven en los pubs: burgers, nachos, patatas etc... pero da gusto comerselo en un lugar tan ambientado.

Always enjoyed going to Elevens bar but their new policy of only being able to order via the app is ridiculous. The cherry on top is that you are then charged an administration fee for the bad service. Won't be recommending or going again unless this changes.

Shocking idea of using the qr code to access an ordering menu. After 30 mins of attempting to log into the system.we gave up. Asked a member of bar staff if there were any issues using their system to be told there wasn't. This member of staff was completely devoid of any interest in the issues we were having. Luckily for us another member of staff saw sense and let us order the old fashioned way by asking a bartender for 2 pinta and 2 cokes. Not the greatest experience I have had and won't be rushing back anytime soon.

Great food and atmosphere. Shame you can only order on the app and then charged an admistration fee.

Went to watch a footy game here, plenty of large screens through out, all drinks and food ordered from app at table, food was really good and there is lots of great sporting memorabilia on the walls. Nice to see Gareth Bale a local Cardiff lad investing and creating jobs etc for his home City.

Great bar. Loads of signed sporting memorabilia.

They don't take cash. Good beer choices, great atmosphere

Great atmosphere and really friendly staff will definitely go back here next time I'm in Cardiff

Overall good pub grub 3.75/5 good experience and service, Blue cheese wings looked questionable.... Burgers good. The Sweetcorn/mayo/coleslaw side was a little un unnecessary and looked unappealing Korean wings banging! would go again.

Been wanting to come for a visit for a while. My daughter is football and sports mad , and a massive Gareth Bale fan her absolute idol, so as a half term treat we decided to come for lunch , staff was super friendly nice atmosphere and really good food loved all the sports memorabilia child was super happy made her day I think it's safe to say we will definitely be back 😀!!

A sports fanatic’s dream and hospitality to match the great range of ales

Once met big man Gazza in this pub. Queue for three hours. Lovely man and got a signed short from the goat Welsh baller. He radiated goat energy. Really big guy and looks like he is partial to a scrap. The greatest of all time.

Rip off Admin charge ! The bar it self was nice and staff work hard but Considering the current climate not even small struggling businesses are forcing extra charges and using an app rather than at bar service , very disappointing, not the cheapest place to drink and ok not the dearest either but it’s not like the admin charge is then given to the staff. I would have expected better from a Bale bar to be honest.

Absolutely amazing bar. Book in advance. You won’t regret it. Highly recommend it!!!

Great food - particularly enjoyed the goat pizza on gluten free base and my favourite gluten free peroni

I like this bar with a history of sport.

Excelente. Um ambiente especial, com a assinatura do dono. Um craque!! Parabéns, Bale!!

Great place to have a drink and watch sport

Came here with friends on New Year’s Eve. I thought the ordering system online was great and very easy to use. Food and service also great. I certainly recommend.

Great atmosphere, food was delicious.

Called in for a lunch on Monday afternoon with my wife. The QR code required for the menu has invalid characters, likely trying to execute code; so my scanner app gave 'unsupported' message. My wife asked staff for a hardcopy menu instead, but a staff member came over and snatchd the phone from my hand. He proceeded to turn on connection preferences that I choose to have disabled for security (such as NFC). He tried to connect my phone to their WiFi but failed. Handing my phone back, he told me that I have to use Chrome on their WiFi to order, then walked off. I connected to the WiFi and used their site via Chrome. Completing the order I attempted to pay using PayPal; this looped repeatedly, either an attempt to make me give credit card information, or a poorly coded application, possibly wanting permissions that I won't allow to random internet apps. Too much hassle, so we took our custom to where it was welcome. Fix your staff's attitude, don't snatch people's phones and I suggest adopt a business plan that doesn't require insecure devices from the customer.

The food was great and the atmosphere was excellent you have to download the apps from your table

Wonderful staff and a great venue.

Super sports bar! Easy to see screens from all angles. Also great beer - especially the bale ale which wqs delicious . Staff super friendly. Really warm and cosy . Great little afternoon drinks.

Nice place good food and friendly staff and service
