The Admiral in Cardiff - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Just stopped by for a quick pint. Lovely traditional pub. Always a good atmosphere, great beer garden. Selection of beers isn't the best but what they do have is well looked after.

Proper little local this is, good atmosphere and a laugh

All good friendly staff all welcome

Very good service very good all round

A little bit out of town but what a lovely traditional cardiff pub good pint & atmosphere brilliant

We went here after the Wales beat Finland in the Euro qualifier. We were walking by and saw a good amount of fans celebrating so we stopped by for a pint. I got a Thatcher’s Haze Somerset Cider from they had on tap which was really good. It was a nice spot with a good atmosphere!

Pretty basic pub in the heart of Canton. The afternoon we called in for a drink. The pub was busy and noisy, which was a good sign. But the bar staff seemed more interested in talking to each other than serving customers. I'm not used to hearing bar staff using such foul language, especially female staff, which is very unprofessional. The pub seems to be full of gamblers only interested in watching horse racing on all televisions. If this is your interest, then you may want to use the pub. My friends and I won't be visiting again.

There's a Wetherspoons up the road, a particularly interesting example......I went to The Admiral....

Best place to go before (and sometimes after) a Cardiff City game.

Love the pub, great atmosphere and fantastic staff

Lovely atmosphere good beer good for darts and all sports on t.v nice beer garden with outside bar and shelter external t.v

Didn't eat so can't comment , pub very busy , but had great night there 👍

Nice atmosphere and good Saturday night Karaoke. Only downer was a dust up at the end of the night. Can't have everything.

Two pints of larger and a packet of crisps kind of place.

Played darts there part of darts league good venue reasonable prices

Lot better with new landlady and bar staff very good atmosphere. Good range of 0% beers which I drink. Be nice if they had guinness 0% as that's a very tasty drink.

Always a great night in this pub :-)

Only go here on match days but all staff are great

Brilliant local pub. Great atmosphere & sooo friendly Bar staff lovely & prices good. A must for a really good night or afternoon out.

Tbh I'm biased because my daughter runs the pub with boyfriend 😁 just won best sports bar in pub chain around UK! If you're a Cardiff City fan this is place to go. Great surroundings and garden with TV so you don't miss any sport

Great staff Great environment Cheapest round of drinks ever

Really good atmosphere on the day. A good local pub 👌Staff Great 👍

Has been done up nice! Good beer selection and pleasant staff

Was there for Wales game last sat with about a dozen friends.would like to thank the 2 girls who were serving they were brilliant 👏 and help make a great day out.

The pub. Has been refurbished a few months ago.nice big main bar,and friendly bar staff.

Great pub good staff good prices comfortable plenty of space and handy for shopping

The place has had a major revamp and looks amazing. It is a really nice pub now with a great atmosphere. The smoking area is amazing with lots of comfortable nooks and crannies to have a bit of privacy if you want. The only issue is that the staff the night we went were quite.. well I'll just say highly strung 😬

Great staff honest great music on weekends

It's okay..they doing a great job looks fab there and good prices been going here years and years .popular pub nice people. Only critiscm is how loud it is music out backnext to the houses ? It obviously attracts some of the wrong sorts because of this .big screens loud music but can see how it works. Shame can't find a way to do it make it work while considering neighbouring houses / locals

Staff are Amazing excellent choice of beer lagers wines & spirit's

Update: Looking a bit tatty since I was there last, not changed as of June 2022

Really nice place now its been done out. Nice bar staff. Lush beer garden. Would definitely recommend 👌

It's a nice bar I've been there a few times over the years and always friendly. Good night out

Good atmosphere and Saturday nights are Karaoke nights very enjoyable and good beer

Very quiet for a Saturday afternoon but still enjoyable time

Great, polite welcoming staff... relaxing vibe and looked after well, felt appreciated for being there from arriving to leaving.... amazing service and definitely will be returning very often....... again, thank you to all the staff and the manager... amazing juke box selection and well maintained pool table too... cant wait for my next visit

Was served today by a young bar man who was very welcoming. The best since Vicky have left.

Good prices. music but fairly quiet

Great local pub.Good local atmosphere

Friendly family run pub in the centre of canton.

Not a place I'd like to drink again. Locals didn't very keen having outsiders present.

Nice comfy friendly atmosphere staff good. Manager understanding and respected by everyone

It gets a bit rowdy and weekends trying to get a drink is like wiring for Christmas! Other than that, good vibes,, great music and plenty of folk shaking a tail feather x

Traditional pre-Wales pints must be had here. The brains Dark and SA is top notch here.

Nice pub. Good bunch of crowd and the managment and staff is lovely.

Good service but not impressed with plastic glasses after matches.

Normally I like it here,but the football game was on in Cardiff and you get your pints in plastic beakers,left after the first pints for a pub with glasses.

Old srule pub in need of modernisation

It's not a bad place but I'm an ale drinker they don't have anything over 4% & it's expensive for real ale under 4% it's were as you go in to other pubs near by the ale is better & cheaper

Had a great karaoke night here on a Saturday
