Revolution in Cardiff

We came for a hen do and had a fantastic night!!! We had indoor fireworks and party poppers for a picture. All the staff were very attentive and made sure we made the most of our bottomless brunch!!! Thank you for a great night!! Definitely recommend 💜

Had a wonderful experience making cocktails! Highly recommended. Had lots of fun and everyone was able to make what they wanted.

My friend and I went as part of the Bottomless Brunch deal. We were highly disappointed with our experience. The service was so slow despite the fact there were only 5 other tables. There were several bar staff who could see that we did not have a refill of our drinks and left us waiting some time between each drink so I could not describe it as plentiful or ‘bottomless’. The staff were not the friendliest either. That did take from the experience as we were both trying to get the waiters attention on several occasions. In terms of the food, the pizza was lovely and a great size. My friend ordered the waffles with chicken and it was a sorry sight in comparison. We then ordered some sides to supplement which cost extra. The sides were delicious. The music was good and that made the atmosphere improve for us but just a real shame that it ended up feeling like we were begging for another round of drinks each time. Especially when we were on holiday from Ireland and chose this as our start of the evening.

It is what it is..... 2 for 1 cocktails though so worth a look

Food came out wrong. I specifically ordered it a certain way. Not only did it come out with mayo when I said "No Mayo" it had lettuce 🥬 eww. Like it's not even listed as having it on the menu. Why add it. Onion rings and chips good though. Maybe next time they can adhere to what I say

I have been here only twice. Expensive cocktails and not many people before 1:00. For the rest I have no complaints at all. Good music, specialy the reggaeton nights.

No food, only drinking. Not busy so very quick service by friendly staff. Pleasant atmosphere and not too loud that we couldn't hear each other, which makes a pleasant change.

Terrible!!! I went to celebrate my birthday but it was horrible!!! Second time I've been to the place, the first time was tragic and the second time was terrible!!! I chose the location because I imagined a more Latin style, I imagined that the name would also be the name, but NO. There are no Latin songs even if you REQUEST THE DJ he won't play!!! Not a place for us Latinos!!! Please don't frequent

Extraordinarily poor customer service. Treat this place as a Whetherdpoons; do not be drawn in by advertisements because you will be buying in to a false promise. I was disatisfied with a tiny issue, but when I tried to broach it with the manager, he was rude and insulting and rather than fix it. The manager basically tried to get the security staff to laugh at me - though it was unsuccessful, it pissed me off. I'll never drink in a Revs in the future. Don't degrade yourself by doing so either, message me if you want a decent bar to go to. 😂

Went in for a bollywood party a good place to chill and dance

Food at this bar doesn't need to be this good. I was pleasantly surprised. We went to Revs as part of a voucher deal for Pizza and Cocktails. We got two full pizzas, two cocktails each and two shots. Well worth the value of the voucher. The service was great, despite it being peak dinner time. The starters were also great. We ordered Gluten Free food and that pizza was excellent considering it's GF. My only negative is the dining area is blasted with loud music even at 6pm.

Booked a cocktail making masterclass with 3 course meal for a hen party. Really poor service. Despite preordering food in advance it took 1.5hrs for food to arrive. No communication from staff despite numerous complaints. Also certain ingredients were unavailable for the cocktail making. Very poor organisation and customer service.

Go in, get serviced quickly, get drunk. What more do you need?

Sam and Rhys were excellent to make the bottomless brunch as boozy and fun as it could be. Highly recommend to anyone looking for fun afternoon with a bottomless brunch. That My name

Scher was absolutely amazing!!! Service was so fast and incredible would definitely go again :))) the food was incredible as well

Thank you so much, w head the best time at my birthday brunch. Soher, was the best waitress, she was so attentive and made my birthday extremely special! May thanks x

We waited at least 15-20 minutes for our first drink, noticed the service was very very slow with barely many people in and drinks just left on the side waiting, we must have complained about 5 times throughout our time here for bottomless brunch. Pizza was undercooked, chips cold, Sausages tasted as if they’ve gone off and the Mac and cheese was given cold. we had a new set of Mac and cheese and chips. Throughout the whole two hours of cocktails we must have had at least 4 each. The full bill was 40-50£ and the shocker to think we still had to pay full price because their would be no alternative for the lack of service, lack of drinks and poor food was unreal. We will never come here again and will never suggest bottomless brunch here to anyone.

Attended on Saturday for a bottomless brunch. 3 drinks in 2 hours, as the staff were so slow. Our main waitress was so rude, and was a true representation of our experience. The toilets were dirty, the food stone cold and a 2 hour bottomless brunch, was actually an hour and a half, as they took ages to serve us and you aren’t allowed to order in the last 15 minutes. We were then told we had to leave our table, as soon as the brunch was over, and find a new seat, even though the place was empty. Would never return.

Worse bottomless brunch experience ever. Drinks had so much ice in they were like water. You were lucky if you managed to have 3 drinks as service was slow despite the venue not busy at all. Food was cold. Toilets were disgusting and leaking they should have had environmental health in to see them. If your gluten free then stay away from here. The bun was gluten free however the chicken burger inside it we were told that they couldn't tell us of it was gluten free. We were in a hen party and all on separate tables. Definitely won't be going here again.

Unfortunately, our group had a highly disappointing experience. Firstly, the service was extremely slow. Over the course of the two-hour period, we received only 6 drinks, despite this being "bottomless". This significantly detracted from the overall experience. The quality of the food was also far below expectations. The chicken burgers were incredibly dry, the mushrooms on the cooked breakfast were burned and inedible, and the baked beans had been sitting under a heat lamp for so long they had developed a thick film. The avocado toast was similarly disappointing—the eggs were overcooked yet somehow still slimy, the toast was soggy, and the entire meal was served cold. The only redeeming factor was our server, who was polite, attentive, and did her best despite the clear understaffing. She noticed our dissatisfaction and kindly brought us a couple of extra drinks as a gesture of goodwill, which we appreciated. However, it was evident that she was overworked and struggling to keep up with the demands of the service. Overall, this was not the standard we expected.

Great music new and old mix i love it🙂

O my god what can I say, just got back from the revolution bar cardiff for my daughters birthday meal, we all were treated outstandingly what an experience ALED was outstanding nothing was to much trouble he went above and beyond, thankyou so so much would highly recommend x

Do not book for bottomless brunch … Food was dry and cold ….!!! And they are very slow bringing the drinks …. Drinks are very watered down and take a long time to bring you the drinks once they’re made … There is not enough staff to run it I would not book again …

Booked bottomless brunch 24/8/24 for our 1st anniversary with some friends. We had a brilliant time and a big thank you to Lucy who knew what brill !! She was doing, great recommendations, lovely person. Would recommend. Thank you !! X

We had Charlotte serve us for my birthday meal and she was very on the ball very quick as were the rest of the staff including Alex 10/10 for bottomless

Had bottomless brunch for my friends birthday and Charlotte and Alex were absolutely outstanding! Nothing was too much for them and they made the birthday girl feel special! Cannot recommend enough, will deffo be back!!

It was a great experience with great service all round which made being able to celebrate my friends’ birthday an all round success

Charlotte and Aled were amazing for our bottomless brunch, went above and beyond for our friend’s birthday. Food was great, and the drinks were made quickly, would recommend! X

Nice food, but very basic. Service started really good but as soon as it got busy we had to wait 20 mins for desert and a pot of tea

Awful organisation. Waited 30mins for a drink. Clearly the management is very poor as there appeared to be enough staff, but none are coordinated. And it wasn’t that busy. Avoid this place.

There was great seating and a decent atmosphere for a larger family with small kids. They didn’t have all the food options available, but the waiter was super friendly and accommodating, and helped us find some good alternatives. The food was average, pub-style fare. The fish and chips were decent.

Came here for my hen do, booked a package with hen weekends, cocktail making,drinking games, 2 course meal. All was great! Definitely recommend x

Visited for my sisters Hen Party.Quick service , friendly staff , great atmosphere and the glitter makeup is a lovely touch aswell.The lady who was doing it even offered top ups throughout the night. We also had a few gos in the photo booth. We had an absolute blast. Lots of dancing, lots of drinking and a lots of laughs.THANKYOU REVOLUTION CARDIFF FOR A GREAT NIGHT !

Arrived early, got one drink per 30 mins for a “bottomless brunch”, the waiters tried to speed it up, but was still limited and slow. I found 2 hairs in 10 drinks we had, the waiter cleared our plates and smashed multiple plates on my lap, covering me in food right before a gig I travelled 4 hours for. I understand accidents happened but 3 levels of low standards is enough for me to complain. They asked what they can do I said “get your aftershave guy upstairs to spray me, so I don’t stink of food” They said “what aftershave guy” I proceeded upstairs where he tried to con me twice. After spending £35 for 4 drinks and my meal chucked on me + the additional £12 I spent on one spray of fake aftershave, I’ve learnt this place is a dive. Avoid at all costs, won’t be coming wales again

Really cool place. Let down slightly as problems when paying using a Taste card.

We had an experience day with Virgin for our wedding gift, we went to Cardiff excited for our "traditional afternoon tea" ... but what came out was horrendous, a plate of deep fried food with half a burger which was SOLID and overcooked. There was a dessert one too, which came out with a waffle and tiramisu... what is British about an American waffle and an Italian tiramisu? The food was not good, and I truly hope your trash this and actually start an original afternoon tea with a pot of tea. All just cooked from frozen & thawed desserts. However there were plus sides, the guy who made the cocktail was great and the waiter was really nice!

We as a group of friends booked premier bottomless brunch for a 30th birthday and let's just say it was awful. We where highly disappointed as we where left waiting without a drink for over 40 minuites each time resulting us only having 3 drinking within the space of 2 hours. They then procceded to tell us they where busy. The food was small and took ages to come. The price on the premier was more than most offering bottomless brunch with the area and you get much more with the other ones. They then moved us to a different table and said they owed us a drink over our time however they took long we did not get this drink as we had to leave due to an additional booking eles where. We paid and leave following this I have sent an email and still yet no response. Overall highly disappointed and ruined the night as this was our main activity booked

We came to Cardiff for a hen weekend, and started off with a cocktail masterclass with you guys & ended up staying all night we enjoyed it that much! The masterclass was hilarious, Rhys our bartender was absolutely amazing, cannot express how much his presence impacted our evening. Great location and venue (we even came back the next night 🙈) drinks were great and food was great!! we will be back!!!

We had a cocktail masterclass with Georgina who was absolutely amazing. Her sense of humour was great and she managed our quirky team increasingly, she had every aspect just right. Her approach was just fantastic, she made the whole group feel at ease and managed to bring out everyone’s personality so that we could have a great time and a great laugh. 100/10

Pre booked a table for 3.30pm. Arrived early and ordered drinks at the rear bar. The pint was flat. When I asked bar staff to replace, I was told there was a problem with the pump, and he went to the other bar to get me a fresh drink. I'm not sure why they were using the beer pump if they were aware it wasn't working properly. The replacement beer wasn't a great deal better! We were seated for our food at 3:30pm. Our order was taken for food and drinks within 15mins. That was the last we saw of anyone for over an hour. Asked at the bar and he said he would send the waitress over. When she came over, we asked about our food and ordered more drinks. Waited another 15mins for drinks and then asked again about our food. Now concerned as the table has a 2 hour slot, which is almost up and we have ordered 2 courses. Explained this to the waitress, and she went to check. Food arrived shortly after this. Within moments of us finishing our starter, plates were cleared and main course was on the table. 1 wrong main, but I can live with that. Steak ordered, medium to well done. After the 2nd slice, it became evident that the meat hadn't been cooked. Possibly just seared but it was cold to the touch. The manager didn't seem to bothered by this, she acknowledged that it felt as though it had just come out of the fridge, offered a refund but other than this, didn't seem too bothered at all!!! Overall, a very poor service on all counts. I accept it was a busy day, but this would have been expected and doesn't excuse the issues we had. Will not be returning

Aled is amazing and was so amazing at bottomless brunch 🤍

Had a fab time. Demi made it enjoyable as she was ensuring that the drinks were here promptly. We didn’t have to wait around for another round. Food was really nice as well. I would recommended!

Demi was wonderful! Very polite and speedy service! Food for bottomless brunch was lovely and substantial so you’re not just plied with drink with an empty stomach!

Kacey served us she was amazing and so friendly throughout big up k dog

Kacey served us. She was fantastic - really made my day! She’s a true asset to Revs, i will be coming back soon!

Demi is amazing Fabulous waitress, friendly and kind. Love natalie

Demi was absolutely lovely! Absolute credit to Revolution! Haven't been to revs since I was a student 🫢 glad that it was different environment and Demi made it special love her!

Great food and service. Demi was great. Never left us alone for too long to think about needing another drink on our bottomless brunch. She was great. We had an amazing time. Thank you! X

Pricey cocktails but delicious and a brilliant atmosphere

Came here for afternoon tea. We were given afternoon tea as a gift at Christmas. The food was excellent. Very filling and the service was extremely friendly. Thoroughly recommend

Not locals to Cardiff and came across Revolution. Great food (we had not intended to eat and saw another tables order and looked too good not to join in) and even better service! Thanks Lucy.

Kyle is a love !! Sorted us right out

My wife and I had an afternoon tea here as a gift. The food was very nice, a good selection of different foods and lovely drinks too

Kiera & Jamal were amazing with our Cocktail class were amazing, friendly and really made us feel welcome. We came for a hen and it was the perfect vibe. Will be back, thank you

Wow had a fantastic time best place in Cardiff

Slow Slow Slow Service. Toilets disgusting Food so so. Cheap Drinks.

I attended here with a large group, the staff appeared flustered and unable to cope with the demand of such a large group with drinks and food orders. Most of the food came sporadically, some came late, and some didn’t come at all. The drinks were equally as chaotic, and again orders were placed, but not delivered correctly to the table in time. Our party did complain to management several times but they did nothing to help our situation nor was any attempt made to recover our confidence in the venue. Very poor, wouldn’t recommend or go again.

Will Cooper was an amazing bartender and person in general. So friendly and provided amazing service.

Just went in for a couple of drinks, ended up having more and food. Lovely service, good prices, nice food, and tasty drinks!

We attended on the 6th of April for a cocktail masterclass as part of a hen package. And what an absolutely amazing time it was! Sophia was fantastic and made the whole experience even better. I cannot recommend this enough. Thank you Revs for making the bride to he's day so special. The food was great and the alcohol was plenty, and everyone loved the games and cocktail making. Thank you again

Was here yesterday making cocktails with the lovely Sophia and Owen for my best friends hen do, we all had such an amazing time. Just want to say a massive thank you to Sophia for making our experience a memorable one. Definitely recommend this place to anyone who is interested in learning to make cocktails and have fun!!

Had a cocktail masterclass with Sophia and owain and it was amazing Sophia made it so much fun and whole hen party had a blast and food was fab too

We had the bottomless brunch , took over an hour for food, took about 30-40 for drinks and wasn’t even worth upgrading for the drinks either especially for the price of £45. £3 for the chips which was tiny. When complained about how long the drinks were taking they said they was busy but you could see everyone just taking their time or the drinks were made but weren’t being brought over. Pizza was lovely. Will not go there again.

I first visited here in December and had such a wonderful experience that I've decided to return. The food is exceptional and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. I will definitely be coming back here again.

Went yesterday evening with some friends for the nightclub. I ordered a drink at the bar in the main nightclub room and the bartender did not hear me. I repeated my order again, clearly and loudly, and she told me not to shout at her, then almost slammed the card machine on my fingers. The escelation in her reaction frankly shocked me. I apologised afterwards and said that I just wanted her to be able to understand my order, and she looked at me blankly. As a bartender myself, I am not offended if someone speaks their order loudly and clearly to me in a loud scenario, so this treatment was rude, especially considering this was a nightclub and I was struggling to hear people directly next to me, let alone across a bar. So note for future revs goers, the bartenders are mind readers, no need to communicate clearly as telekinesis is a hiring requirement for rude bartenders who underpour you right in front of you, then ignore your unnecessary apology. Music can be hit or miss. Atmosphere was awful during fresher's week, but is better when it's a bit quieter. Oh and if you wear the discount bracelets, they don't do anything and you are charged full no matter what. So beware.

First time in Cardiff. Decided to do a brunch for my birthday and Mia was the best server. Made sure my table was served, had a smile on her face and made sure that we were comfortable. If you ever go to revolution Cardiff, ask for Mia as your server. I give her 100/10

A lovely afternoon brunch with cocktails. A great way to spend the afternoon

Good food and drinks. Great service.

Rank drinks, pissed clientele and no value for money

Could be better, afternoon tea experience was nice

We attended a new comedy night, there was an excellent lineup. Unfortunately, there were only 7 in the audience.

Very nice place, always go in there when rugby is on so once a year....

Me & friends went to Revolution (Cardiff) a few days ago, and we had an awful experience. When one of the bouncers asked my friend to leave the area, he began pushing him back for no reason. I came near seeing this, the bouncer caught on my neck which i felt very disrespectful. We brought this up with the manager. But at this time, the bouncer was attempting to accuse us falsely. To discover the facts, we requested that the manager examine the CCTV. In response, the manager said he was unable to deal with the situation the same day. We were not allowed to re-enter the event, and there no refund. All in all, we had a terrible experience.

We booked a bottomless brunch with everyone having pre-ordered food. Completely not worth the money. Food took 1 hour to arrive and the pizzas took longer because they only have one pizza oven ( we were only told this on arrival otherwise we would have ordered other things). I ordered the Brunch Grill. The sausage was black and the bread tasted like charcoal. The whole meal was cold when it got to the table. An apple juice took 40 minutes to get to the table after being asked about twice once ordered. Ordered another one and it didn't arrive. Other food ordered was tiny portions and definitely not worth it.

We were served by Lara who was class!

Good vibe and decent priced drinks with good drinks deals. Staff really good too. Friendly and efficient.

Demi was amazing couldn’t do more for us, 12/10 would recommend here and Demi!

Fantastic atmosphere. The cocktail making session was so much fun. Great music, fantastic and friendly staff, tasty drinks. Would recommend for a staff party. Will return for a night out.

A big shout out to Rhys, who made our experience a positive one.

Lovely food and friendly staff. Thanks

Attended for Christmas event which included cocktail masterclass which was great, and Christmas Turkey dinner which was possibly the worst meal we had ever had. Everything was cold and the roast potatoes were still hard and barely roasted. The chocolate brownie desert was nice but overall we will be choosing a different venue for our Christmas meal next year but i would go back for a cocktail masterclass again

good food good service, all round a great night out

Had bottomless brunch. Staff were pleasant and friendly. Service was good , keeping the drinks coming. Food was OK but thought portions of the brunch were small. Bit pricey I thought for food served

Booked a table for 1pm for afternoon tea, the food didn't arrive until 3.20pm. We did ask quite a few times and they said it was on it's way. We just started desert when, were told we had to move to another table as the one we were at was booked for someone else. Need to get timings right.

Full of chavs taking drugs, security was selling the drugs to them.

I was upset because I stood on glass here and it was very painful but staff was lovely however they did not give me my free vodka shot as a reward for being brave so I am a little upset!!

Went for afternoon tea food was amazing. Staff was friendly and helpful

Really enjoyed our visit good was really good and good service

Attended a wedding reception in the upper floor which I believe is the V. I. P area normally. Ok

The burger was okay, I liked the blue cheese sauce, but the bun was a bit big and should be toasted some more. The fries with spices were really good. Had a vodka cocktail which was really nice. Nice atmosphere!

Visited on match day, very nice venue, awesome atmosphere

Nice place and great staff. Cocktails are a bit hit or miss but the long long ice tea is amazing. Service was a bit slow for 6pm on a Friday. Ordering at the table is definitely quicker (order more than one drink at a time as well ;) ). Overall I would recommend it.

exciting and fun atmosphere, not a long wait time, would recommend

Turned away a guest cause they closed down entry but watched as they let two girls in cause they were attractive, sad to see security care more for their gaze than equality

Had Hen night with cocktail making, followed by amazing buffet. Great place !!!

Went as part of a work event, used the upstairs function room, had a 2 course meal and some drinks. Great atmosphere and the staff were helpful, food was nice as well. Downstairs has a good atmosphere as well, good selection of drinks available and reasonably priced for Cardiff. Worth a visit!

Food was fantastic and great value. Would recommend eating here. However... Seats were hard to get into for those not skinny and the toilets downstairs stank like urine and damp but were quite a spectacle to behold. There is an accessible toilet on the bar level that was not offensive to the nostrils. Service was slow which was weird considering there were no other customers and at least 6 members of staff! Pop around the corner of the bar before or after to see some decent wall art.

David the security guard was so nice to us and went and got us bottles of water, top employee

I was going through a rough time and was very upset and distressed. A bartender here gave me a hug and got me a drink and offered to talk it out with me. I can't put into words how deeply I appreciated that - I really hope she gets everything she wants in life haha. I really, really needed that. Amazing and supportive staff.

Wouldn’t let international students in despite them having valid ID. Once they were called out on borderline racism, the bouncers asked me to leave even though I had paid because apparently the accusation was ‘offensive’. I personally would view the racism itself as offensive - I would not recommend this club to anyone. Disgusting.
