Franco Manca Cardiff in Cardiff

Thank you Ronny for excellent service 👏

Incredible food! Ronny was a fab server xx

Been to a fee branches of FM but the Cardiff branch was the best. Ordered 2 x pizza and they were great. Crispy, fluffy and tasty.

Although a busy evening, I was accommodated quickly. The food and service were great!

What can i say but this is absolutely amazing. The atmosphere is very nice, with calm relaxing music playing in the background and a very nice atmosphere with lighting and how tables are placed. The food is very good and would definitely recommend it relatively cheap for a good portion. Service was also amazing and a very kind gentleman served us very good. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for pizza amazing.

Great food, Ronny served us and he was amazing. Friendly, helpful and very quick.

food is absolutely spectacular, really great prices (student friendly!!) Tai our waiter was super lovely, we had a great night here :))

The pizza was so good i wanted even more . Our waiter who was Sanjana was really nice . I loved the food . When we were about to get desert they said they dropped it so we got it for free !

Very pleasant experience. Our waitress Sanjana was very hospitable and friendly. Overall great experience ❤️

The pizza was delicious and the service was really good as well.

Enjoyed the sourdough pizza - wild boar and mushrooms. Had an aperol spritz which whilst tasted ok was rather on the small side - order a 'double'. In at a strange time so difficult to assess atmosphere but has potential

Yummy pizza and amazing service! Ronny was so lovely and made sure we got the best student deals. Definitely recommend

Had a kid's birthday party after escape room adventure. Absolutely amazing true Italian pizza with delicious lemonade and ice cream. Ronny, we'll definitely come back for our lemonchello drink without kids:)

Slow service and poor pizzas, I really don't understand how it has this many positive reviews. Pizzas are small and extremely lacking in the amount of toppings, I've never left a restaurant feeling so ripped off and disappointed.

Food was scrumptious and Ronny was the best server ever , so fun and helped us save money on student deals 😊

Lucy really sorted my mate lewis bday out

Delicious pizza and great service from Tiffany.

Lucy did a fantastic job taking care of us. Food was amazing!

Lucy was great, she elevated my meal and ensured my time at franco manca was excellent.

Great and tasty pizza. You always find table and pizza is ready quickly. No Logo beer on tap.

The sourdough pizzas are fantastic as is the pizza bread and the accompaniments. It's also great value for money and has a generous reward scheme via the app - buy six pizzas and get one free and they gave me the highest price pizza for free. I've been to a few branches and the atmosphere is good in all

Thought we would try Franco Manca Cardiff out as my son loves pizza. Arrived and the team thankfully were able to accommodate us arriving on spec. Menu looked great, specials looked inviting and we ordered. Aperitivos arrived and drinks, a good start. It went downhill from there. We waited and waited for our main course pizza, watched table after table being served who had ordered their food after ours, we attempted to get the attention of the restaurant staff but were ignored, the tables around us had spectacular service but our little corner ignored. We eventually managed to grab the attention of a lovely lady who managed to move our food on and explained that the manager hadn’t pulled our order through, this was after approx 45 minutes of waiting when other customers orders were taking 10 minutes. We ordered additional drinks and didn’t arrive, we asked for table water and didn’t arrive. I would say that the rest of the restaurant had great service and I am writing about our service which was very poor. The food arrived and because the delivery team saw the mix up clearly sped up the order, but then didn’t cook the pizzas long enough and were luke warm. But we had waited so long and were so hungry we could not do anything but eat them. The lovely lady arrived with the bill with optional service charge but changed for it anyway. I questioned this practice but actually had given up on the whole experience as it was nothing short of fawlty towers. On leaving the manager had the opportunity to apologise but just stared at us as though the whole experience was down to us rather than taking responsibility which is what management should do. Based upon our one and only experience I’m not sure we would visit again and certainly wouldn’t recommend.

Lovely food and service by Isobel and Israel. We had a very nice time we will definitely come back very soon!

Lovely time at our leaving do. Isobel was great and Israel🩷 I had the pizza and a glass of wine and everything was lovely. Really enjoyed will come back again.

Lovely place, food was absolutely delicious and our waitress Isobel was so fabulous!!!! Enjoyed our evening a lot 🤩

We were a large party of 10 served by Isabell and Israel. The service and food were wonderful!

Isobel accommodated awkward dietary requirements above and beyond what I asked for. Food was amazing. Highly recommend

best pizza in the uk, super comfortable atmosphere. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff (especially Lucy). Will be back

The best pizza in Cardiff. We literally order it every week 🙈 the base is amazing, and huge fan of the pesto dip. They do a good deal during the week, good value for money. Was my biggest craving while I was pregnant and still obsessed now I’ve had my baby so it’s a good thing it’s not too expensive haha. You heat it up in the oven for a couple minutes when you get it delivered, and it tastes so fresh - which is so hard to achieve with lots of takeaways! Don’t bother with dominoes, this place is the best!

Great experience and yummy food :) service from Lucy was amazing- she gave me a pesto dip as extra - thank you!

Excellent service from Lucy! Lovely pizza!

Had a lovely meal here with a big group, great service from Lucy and the rest of the team. Pizzas were fab and we had a great time!

Visited this location recently brilliant service. Was seated rather quickly and food was very good. Lush atmosphere. Will definitely be back. XX

Pizza was really good and tasty. The dough was not the best, but good.

I had the mushrooms pizza, it was delicious! One of the bests I’ve had. The environment it’s really cozy, perfect for a get together with friends

Don’t go if you want reasonably quick service. It seemed door staff saw us as a nuisance and made us wait for a table despite being mostly empty and then another couple were seated before us two. Finally, after being seated we were there about 20 mins with no one coming to the table re drinks or ordering despite at least one waiter wandering about, round the restaurant, up and down stairs. None of it was crime of the century but it was SO lackadaisical

Delicious pizza and lemonade! The staff was all welcoming and kind and the space was super clean and pretty. Would definitely come back!!

Served by Tai. Incredible service and so friendly, definitely will be returning! :)

Tai our waiter was very attentive and extremely kind and had a huge smile on his face. He made the experience lovely. The pizza was good but maybe slightly soft, not sure if that’s how dough dough pizzas are but it didn’t have much structure when picked up - apologies if that’s just me. Meal overall was good though!

Amazing sourdough pizza. Amazing atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend!

Had a lovely time, was served by Ronny who was great, would go again

Had a lovely trip, excellent friendly service from Ronny! Very quick too. Absolutely will come back again

Ronny was such a great sever! Great food and lovely atmosphere will defo come back!

Love Franco Manca. Always great food and Rony gave great service. Highly recommend.

Great pizza and great service from Ronny.

Amazing meal here, our waiter Ronny was great! Will definitely be coming back

Lovely pizza, I had number 5. Service was fantastic, Ronny was extremely friendly and very helpful.

While visiting Cardiff for 3 days, we looked for a pizzeria and decided to try Franco Manca, but it was disappointing in terms of the quality of the pizzas. Burnt on the bottom as you can see in the photos and with few ingredients. The service was good, with friendly staff and a pleasant atmosphere.

Tiffany was great. A good laugh and appreciated the crack. Very impressed felt valued.

Good student deals and friendly staff. Anna was very helpful.

Great service and food. Enjoyed the pizza and the dessert. Our friend had a great birthday. Tiffany was great. Happy Birthday Richard

The food was superb, especially the meat special pizza, the atmosphere was great and the table service provided by Tiffany was great too!

Tiffany and the team were great ! An enjoyable evening with great food .

Really lovely place and food was amazing! Very tasty pizza and Tiffany the waitress was lovely and very attentive

Lovely staff, good deals for students, tasty food !

Lovely food! Great student deals! Thank you to anna who looked after us:)

Amazing service, Ronny was very friendly and welcoming! Food is great and prices are good, would recommend Franco Manca :)

Pizza was fantastic as usual, service and staff was quick and very friendly. Our waiter Ronny was great, will be running back :))

Very nice pizza and service at the Cardiff castle location. Good service at the table and friendly staff working on the day

Lovely atmosphere, quick service and the food was lovely! I had the house special pizza and it was delicious, garlic bread was INCREDIBLE! Sanjana our server was so attentive! No complaints!

Nice location, food reasonably priced and Rowan gave a great service.

Rowan gave such lovely service!! Great price for food! Really enjoyed!

Had such a lovely experience, GREAT food and GREAT service!! really enjoyed my time, highly recommend number 7 pizza, very yum!

Nice place in the center of Cardiff, our waitress Angela helped us out really well. Pizza was great and quick

Very good pizza and nice servants as well

Lovely pizza using student deal so very happy with my delicious £5 pizza !!

Delicious food, served by lovely very friendly staff. This is our favourite place to go for Saturday lunch!

Tiffany was a brilliant server, lush pizza and great people watching spot

Vegan special was great! Lovely service from Tiffany and everyone else!

I’ve been to a few Franco Mancas but Cardiff takes the cake for me. Staff were super welcoming & friendly. Had a perfectly cooked pizza, and everything was gorgeous right down to the placement of the ingredients, all tasted super fresh and full of flavour. Super reasonably priced and quick service.

Had the truffle pesto and mushroom pizza, outstanding! Service was brilliant and food came out fast, will definitely be returning

Love Tiffany! Great service and food 💗

Great food and service thank you so much Tiffany!🫶

I use to come often, but I hadn’t been in a while. The pizza is easily one of the best in town, phenomenal. Props to the chefs. Isobel and Tiffany were also attentive and welcoming. I will be back

First time in the Cardiff branch. Highly recommend. Lovely staff, excellent service and delicious food. I highly recommend the pesto garlic bread. I will be back.

Great ingredients and great crust. Waiter was way too busy for the number of tables and easy service menu and a bit kirt, giving that authentic Italian condescending vibe 😉

Tiffany was great. Excellent service and reasonably priced food!

It's a warm comfortable restaurant, found us a table quickly even on a busy night, and our server was very lovely, food has been consistently good

Food was amazing! And our server Tiffany was super lovely and helpful!!! Thank you:))

Sanjana was wonderful. Very kind to us. Had a great time. Thank you

Amazing service from Tiffany :)

I recently had an excellent experience at Franco Manca, thanks to Isobel's outstanding service. Her attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and genuine care for our dining experience made the evening truly special. She was knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations, which enhanced our meal. Isobel's service was attentive without being intrusive, making us feel well looked after throughout our visit.

Thank you Sanjana for your wonderful service. Fantastic dining experience! The ambiance was cozy, the service top-notch, and the food was absolutely delicious. A must-visit for anyone craving Italian pizzas and a relaxed atmosphere.

Pros: The pizza is delicious. When you get it. With 90% of the advertised toppings. Cons: Service very slow. 20 minutes until we were asked about drinks orders and we weren't ever asked about drinks with our meals. The meals took nearly an hour and then two orders were incorrect. Two members of our party had to watch the others eat without their own food. When it came, it lacked all the toppings. Entertainment: The manager shouting at a deliveroo driver in the doorway was certainly something. Then the arguing between pizza cooks and the staff.And everyone all standing around instead of say, offering drinks. It would've been laughable if it wasn't so frustrating. So much for a nice birthday meal. I don't think any of us will really be choosing to return. Shame because the pizza bases are really nice. The finishing touch was the absolute gall to add a service charge to the whole shambles 👏 👏 👏

Lovely wee place. We had a pizza and a garlic bread on a date and it was great. Came out in good time and all the staff were super friendly. All the members of staff were all helpful and friendly without being overbearing

Very good pizza, with ingredients that are a little out of the ordinary. Friendly welcome and pleasant decor.

I've always thought that like curry, you can always imagine a better pizza. Well I can't now, this was the Holy Grail of pizza. I had the vegan no cheese option and it was the best I've ever had

Great staff who were bith friendly and professional as they accommodated our lateness - especially as we were dining on a super busy day prior to the Foo Fighters concert. We never felt rushed or like the annoyance I am sure we were. Super quality fresh food. Delicious pizza. I especially loved the salad - which my family thought I was ordering to be healthy but it was actually just so full of flavour! Thanks we will return..

Amazing pizza and 10/10 value for money.

Sanjaria has been great servicing us. Good food as well.

Eloise was so friendly and brightened up our day. The food was lovely and it was relaxed atmosphere to catch up with friends

Food was amazing, quick, a lot, and Eloise was our amazing waitress. She made the whole evening

Ronnie was lovely and the pizza is amazing!

The staff were clearing plates when people had not even finished eating, otherwise perfectly polite. My pizza was nothing more than average, bruschetta was a bit of bread and pizza sauce which is not bruschetta. I am in no rush to go back.

Great food, atmosphere! Service is always so friendly and professional! Can’t recommend enough! My personal favourite pizza place in Cardiff from now on ⭐️

Absolutely amazing service and food! Despite the busy day (GP in Cardiff), we were served incredibly quickly. The Pizza 5, paired with seasonal pesto and parmigiana, was an absolute treat! Special thanks to Anna, who went above and beyond in making our experience exceptional.

Very pleasant restaurant, with plenty of space and a nice decor. The pizzas are excellent (and we're picky about pizza!), with a choice that changes from what we usually find without it being too exotic. Desserts also good. Perfect children's menu, and the restaurant offers a drawing placemat and pencils for children.

Fabulous service from the waiter, Israel - He was very pleasant and helpful. Pizzas were amazing and big. We will be back!

They make fantastic pizza here. Real sourdough, great toppings and actually reasonable prices. Luckily we had a reservation. It's not exactly cozy because it's very busy, but if you're interested in a really good pizza, you should visit this restaurant. Franco, Manca is also very centrally located, making it a suitable starting point if you want to do more in Cardiff. Greetings to the friendly waiter who did an internship in Achweiz!

Paid with credit card. Nobody warned us about the 22 Pound extra for paying with our card. In addition to that I can't get the idea to drink wine out of a standard glass.
