Owain Glyndwr in Cardiff

Really great place, fast friendly staff

Plenty of screens for watching the games. Only improvement would be another pool table and not having to go downstairs to get cues

But pricey for drinks but it's expected in the town centre. Service is very good.

Very slow service, waited 55 minutes for food. 3 people in our groups and the food wasn’t even served together. The last meal was served 15 minutes after the first one. Food wasn’t as nice as it usually is, I had steak that hadn’t been rested so half the chips were soggy and inedible because of the juice from the steak.

Order lasagne but was just pasta sauce with bit of pasta on top with cheese

Went on a England Wales match day, was very busy with good atmosphere, very large place, been going for years

Have visited here before and the staff are always friendly. Great for watching sport and a bite to eat. Prices are reasonable. Happily have a pint here whenever I'm in Cardiff.

Like a Wetherspoons but dearer. £8.05 a pint, I feel mugged. At least the glass is plastic 😩

Nice pub, nothing special. The cuisine is delicious, but everything is very basic. Good monitors, convenient to come with a group to watch football.

The staff were brilliant very busy day on St Davids

Great place arrived on game day. Was busy Awesome staff

Ligia was so helpful offered a ramp for my wheelchair and cleaned the nearest available table all with a smile and super polite . Food is great and service is quick and great prices will definitely come back .

Very disappointed. Real ale was under par.

Had a lovely chat with the girl behind the bar with glasses and tattoos (didn't catch her name), didn't get food but it looked good on other tables. Overwhelming range, felt bad for the girl serving us who had to wait ages for me to pick!

Great pub didn't have food so can't rate.

Busy busy , match day , brilliant staff

1 Food & Drink - The food is very much chain pub food standard think O'neils / Whetherspoon vibes it's not a Gastropub or anything like that, so its fine by that standard of expectation I give it 4* because there is a good range of drinks for selection and I don't go there for the food. 2. Prices - They are on the slightly higher side if you compare to other cheaper venues e.g. Kiwis, Live Lounge, Wetherspoons - Higher on mach days, as everywhere is. 3. Pros - SPORTS - Loads of large screen TV's everywhere, so great for Sport with SKY and TNT Sports . 4. Pros - Water available on bar, which is convenient for hydration and keeps bar staff free to serve people drinks. 5. Pro- Saturday Kareoke - I'm a regular to Kareoke they have a good sound system and you can hear yourself sing- usually positive vibes with supportive crowds. 6. Pro - Door Staff - Most door staff are friendly 6. Cons - I went here to watch the Euros England VS Spain, which I was surprised there was no door staff at all for...Yes it was fairly early in the Day and on a Sunday, but I had some overweight, drunk, racist Welshman with a pedo moustache, who was a sore loser and idiot who was supporting England "Because at least they're not foreigners" come up to me and start shouting racist abuse and swearing in my face, when Spain scored again, which I feel would not have occurred or would have been addressed if there was door staff. Cons - I purchased a bottle of Fanta £3 and asked for a pint glass with ice, as I don't usually drink alcohol except for special events e.g. parties, birthdays, or going on a full blown night out etc. I also do not like drinking Sodas, as unhealthy, but you have to buy something really don't you. I sipped it occasionally, went to Sing my karaoke song and glass collector took it when the glass was half full ! I complained to the same staff member I purchased from and the bar staff member was immediately rude and got sassy with me and essentially accused me of lying and said that I purchased it a long time ago and probably drank it. I said it is a very sugary drink, so I only sip it occasionally, but it's not something I would want to drink quickly and I wanted either 1.50 back or half a glass of soda back on tap was fine. He then asked the glass collector, which I think admitted they took the glass half full off the table, as it could of only been like 3 mins since singing my song and then he spoke to the manager, which gave me a new Fanta, which was the right thing to do to be honest. But I don't appreciate being called a liar to begin with or the initial attitude rude attitude of the bartender, when I explained the situation politely and calmly. Cons- Toilet Cleanliness always seem to be very dirty and messy and the tables always more often than not feel sticky.

Not enough staff on duty, took waaaay too long to get served.

Fui al pub a tomar unas cervezas después del partido Irlanda - Gales 6 naciones. Extremadamente ocupado - como es habitual después de un internacional en el Principado. TBH estaban muy por encima de lo que se consideraría seguro, pero la puerta seguía dejando que la gente se apiñara. Aceptando que usted tendrá que esperar para ser servido mi grupo mixto de amigos irlandeses y galeses pacientemente esperó y trabajó su camino al bar. Eso tomó unos 20 minutos. Tristemente la actitud y el servicio cuando llegamos allí fue una verdadera decepción. Ignorada repetidamente por un miembro del personal (una joven con piercings faciales y cabello rojo oscuro) fue grosera con uno de mis amigos y básicamente trabajó a ritmo de caracoles. Está claro que no estaba contenta con lo ocupado que estaba, pero esto se manifestó con una actitud realmente antipática. Una pena, ya que fuimos dolorosamente educados con ella. Volvimos a tomar una segunda ronda de copas, pero después de esperar en el bar durante unos 20 minutos mientras ella pasaba junto a nosotros y varios otros (muchos otros grupos estaban comentando sobre ello, así que sabemos que no éramos solo nosotros) nos dimos por vencidos y fuimos al Copa bar, donde el servicio era mucho mejor.

Nice Sportsbar/pub with a good kitchen

Nice pub with a good food and prices

Been staying in Cardiff for a few nights and found myself in this pub multiple times. What you expect plenty of live sports with lots of space, good food and good service. Pool table upstairs

This is my absolute favourite place for food. I always get a mixed grill and Oh My Gosh is it the best!! I always come in and am greeted kindly. Ligia is the one I see every single time and is always there without fail with a smile and a friendly attitude. I love this place and will keep coming in the future

Overpriced meals that wasn't tasty don't have fish and chips not worth tiny portions.

Decent pub, good choice of beer and drinks, clean. Food looked ok on other tables

Great drinks and karaoke on Saturdays

Great city centre pub. Good beer and food. Highly recommended.

Great sports bar to watch the Rugby.

The food was very good, served very quickly. Ligia, the lady who was taking orders, serving drinks and providing the table service, who was very busy, was highly attentive and very friendly, an asset to the establishment. Thank you Ligia :)

Good town boozer. Will be returning

Food ok, mix grill ok, gammon ok,but chicken cheese melt horrendous cheese wasn't even fresh! it looked like cheese from a tube🤢🤬, all drinks flat even though sent back came back a little better but still half flat

I liked it. Clean and bright. 2025 Good Beer Guide listed but with only a choice of two real ales. I chose a good pint of Grey Trees, Digger's Gold. I would call back in if I found myself in Cardiff again. Cheers.

Great night in the Owain amazing craic the guys are brilliant... highly recommend this place

I love the atmosphere Good plan to eat not too expensive (drink dish) but it remains classic.

We came here a few weeks ago, and came back today. Both times we were served by Molly, she was absolutely lovely both times. You could tell she is very hard working and gave great service every time we went up to the bar. Not often would I leave a review for service at a pub, but this time I will. Give her a raise or something!

Nice real ales, only went in for a drink, bit manic as it was just before Christmas, but good service.

Worst meal out I have ever had. The cleaner must have done the cooking, it certainly was no chef

Lovely place but felt a bit like a Wetherspoons with extra price tag. Loud music inhibited conversation

Went here with my family for a meal, I had a steak and my parents got burgers, food was nice, not too expensive. But what the hell, £11 for 3 coffees? That is a complete rip off (1 double espresso, 2 americanos with milk), the coffee was very disgusting even, we haven't finished it. 4/5 because of that. Otherwise I recommend.

Worst pub food ever! I ordered the Mac and Cheese. Not complicated but I at least expected something that a pub was proud to serve. The kitchen had opened a Tin of Mac&Cheese and poured it into a bowl. Unbelievable

Food basic,but reasonably priced.

Not as traditional as some of the city-centre pub's in the area but, nevertheles, not a bad boozer with some very friendly customers - at least when I visited. The beer was very good and reasonably priced. I did not eat, so comments upon the food.

Great place to catch the game (football or rugby) multiple TVs

thank you very much to the Owain Glyndwr for having our band. Great atmosphere

Met here before a Christmas meal. Nice venue

Great service, lovely food, highly recommended for table bookings. Great staff

Decent pub nice choice of beers, loads of tv screens with sports.

Gran servicio de Ligia - cubrió toda la zona de arriba y sirvió con una sonrisa. Gran esfuerzo y gran servicio. . . . . . . .

This pub is a fantastic spot for a laid-back evening with friends. The atmosphere is always buzzing, yet comfortable, and the staff are friendly and attentive. The drink selection is fantastic, especially the local craft beers, and the food is always tasty. It's the perfect place to relax after a long day or meet up for a casual night out.

Nice meal. Meal came out quick.Limited soft drinks offer

Great atmosphere at the weekend. Counter service super fast and super nice. Unfortunately the food wasn't that good, but ok for pub food.

Great if you want to keep drinking and watching sports on tv. Food not so good very small portions . Great if your in a hurry. It always depends on what the customer expects .overall I will give it a 6. I was so happy just to get something to eat on my special day with my daughter. We go to Cardiff every Christmas and look forward going for a nice meal. It was satisfactory. Sorry kids.

Servicio brillante por Ligia, muy amable, amable y servicial. Fuimos más allá con nuestro gran grupo, mantuvimos la mesa limpia y seguimos el ritmo de los vasos vacíos. ¡Agradable por todas partes!

The home of rugby on match day!

Nice open plan pub with plenty of seating inside and out

Advertises an app for ordering. Ordering is disabled in the app. Bait and switch.

Only had drinks before our meal booking. Nice place clean and tidy great staff

Didn't eat there but food looked good on other tables. Good choice of beers, ciders etc. Helpful staff for my limited sight partner. Good music playing in background. Clean tables

Best place to go in my opinion!! Great food and friendly staff make this a great place!

It is what it looks like, a well priced big pub. Great drinks selection Friendly staff. Decent prices Not too busy so could have a chat and a subsequent read comfortably. A very solid city centre pub!

Average better prices required

Exceptional. Siempre una bienvenida amable y atento personal. Esta visita fue hecha especial por la ayuda de Bibi, Sorcha, Gregor y Kyle. ¡Sirven un Guinness de cinturón!

I must say. The service by Ellie and Taylor was phenominal, would 100% come again x

Ligia was so kind, the place is good and with a friendly environment. The food was good.

Ligia and Morgan were lovely and friendly. Banging food had a nice drink thankyou!

Llamamos aquí con un amigo solo para una copa, lugar lo suficientemente agradable y personal amable del bar. Lugar muy ocupado con un montón de mesas reservadas, pudimos sentarnos en una de las mesas reservadas siempre y cuando desocupado por el tiempo que se muestra en la mesa.

Have I been ripped off £5:15 for a small bottle of San Miguel alcohol free beer. Scandalous

Great selection of beers. Pool table upstairs also . Service is always good.

Popped in for food with my partner and god I wish we didn't bother. Food was absolutely shocking. She had a burger which tasted off, I had a mixed grill. Steak was well over cooked when asked for medium but came out like ghandis flip flop, sausage was hard and chewy, gammon crispy and flat like a rizla paper, chicken dry as hell. Staff came over to clear our plates and didn't even ask how the food was, considering there was plenty left on our plates.Wow never eating there again.

Returned for another tasty and well priced meal, served quickly and with a smile. Thank you to all responsible. We will dine here again when in Cardiff.

I've been to the Owain Glyndwr a couple of times now, and I've always had a good time. It's a great little bar for watching sports, having a few drinks with friends, or just chilling out. The atmosphere is always lively and friendly. There's a great mix of people here, and everyone seems to be having a good time. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming. The drinks are reasonably priced and there's a good selection to choose from. They have a wide range of beers, wines, and spirits. It’s located in the heart of Cardiff and in within walking distance of several hotels and restaurants.

The worst pie I have ever had. Microwaved. Dry. Absolute rubbish Mashed potatoes was more like concrete Beer is good tho

Good selection of both Cask and Keg Ales however not cheap. Paid £7.00 for a Pint of VOG Keg. Friendly staff.

I wish i'd eaten elsewhere. The fish fillet was very thin. Hardly any mushy peas on the plate either. Chips were ok but again not a large portion. Good service but that didn't help better the meal.

Great place with a lot of TV so you can enjoy the sports. Great variety of beers at a normal price.

The racism is so bad that East Asians are not allowed to sit in the good seats outside where you can see the music. I can't believe a store like this exists in this day and age. out of the question.

A nice pub, with a nice atmosphere just ruined by the poor service from staff. Came on a Thursday night for the weekly quiz, had booked two tables. Upon arriving we went to the bar and was ‘greeted’ by Bibi. It seemed like everything was too big of a problem and she could not care about us at all. This attitude from her was repeated many times throughout the evening and was commented on by almost everyone in our group.

It's a nice place to watch football and have a beer

Typical Welsh pub, on 2 floors with local and international beers, regular live music, mixed crowd, nice service, you can't get disturbed even when it's busy. Would love to come back.

We only had a drink 🍸 but a lovely pub

Have to be honest £14 for 2 pints of cider wasn't quite what I was expecting.

Great mix of sports bar, karaoke and relaxed drinking. Friendly staff and nice outdoor area

Nice city center boozer. Light and airy with a good selection of drinks. Nice staff.

Managed to get a table on a Saturday afternoon even though it was busy. Food was good and reasonable priced. Service was good.

absolutely amazing service ask for help for a disabled person getting up a step who was very kind and held the table for us as I went to find all the rest of our guests so that we can all sit together

One of the staff members here is so trash she should just quit the service industry for real.

Great afternoon here. Helpful, polite staff, easy and fast service. 5⭐

Came for some food and drinks before going to bute park outside cinema. Although it was busy when we arrived I was served so quickly multiple times by Millie who was so friendly and so helpful! A credit to the team 💖

Lovely food. Good staff and nice atmosphere.

Just a convenient bar to pop into

Sports Saturday-4 different sports on multiple screens with staff attempting to keep flow going throughout

That place and name are so special to me.

Large pub situated close to the nightlife. Offers a wide variety of beers and good pubfood. The pub is crowded but offers more room upstairs. The app was not working but ordering at the bar is quick.

Popped in for a drink with friends after attending sport event service was quick and staff friendly. Great atmosphere with music playing for all to enjoy. Would recommend and will be back for sure

Had food here often. Good varied menu and great value. Plenty of drinks on offer and good atmosphere especially if your a sports fanatic.

Turns sound on after anthems. Idiots.

We all had a great time here. Good live music.

We had some lunch here. Nice pub grub. Was quiet when we were there, but can see it would be very busy. Plenty of TVs with sports on. Good selection of beers.

Nice pub great staff. Didn't quite understand why you could only go in and out if the doors you were directed to .

Really nice decor inside, we ordered so.e baguettes which were lovely and came within about 10 mins. Would return and would recommend.
