Nice friendly place. Nice staff.

Great pub, Adam is great barman, you have to try this pub if you're in the area

As ever not to be faulted. Huge effort in everything they do. Highly recommend

Always good value for the money , friendliness and good menu choices.

Excellent hospitality, didn't try the food, will definitely be calling in again.

Fantastic place, beautiful food, and the staff. I take my hat off to them all..100% service

Great new manager great atmosphere sure to come back soon

Turned up for a drink tonight. Met the new landlady. Lovely woman. Welcoming. Chatty. This place is going to be fab moving forward. Looking forward to days and evenings chilling here.

Excellent place for a Christmas do. Food was delicious, staff were lovely, venue was festive.

Brilliant services food was amazing

Excellent Sunday lunch and good value, £12.95 for one course, £16.95 and £20.95 represents excellent value when the food is this good and fresh. Couldn't find room for pudding but everything including the service and drinks which were good value were excellent too. Would have been 5 stars had plates been warmer

Fantastic food .Great decor staff happy polite and kind and caring

Visited this evening for Christmas meal and entertainment. Had a fab night as a group of 8 ladies. Delicious food, great entertainment and The Landlady was so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We all agreed it was a brilliant night and will definitely be back 👍

Were booked in for a family Sunday lunch and expected your average usual fare. Wow, this was something else. Really delicious food, excellent presentation and attentive service for only £16.95 for two courses, would highly recommend and definitely going back for more.

My first visit but certainly not the last

Beautiful Pub... Very friendly staff & great service. The food was absolutely sublime! I had the Battered Cod Loin... melt in the mouth. A really lovely experience. Highly Recommend!

fab food staff very friendly and helpfull

Always a pleasure. Three starters, mains and desserts, all devoured, can’t fault it. Felt nicely full but not bloated on the way home.

Had a Sunday lunch here. Disappointed as the only roast potatoes they had were cooked in garlic and herbs. I dont like garlic. The veg was very poor just a bowl between 3 of us and not very nice. Expensive for what we had. Wont be going there for Sunday lunch again.

Very disappointed in the Sunday lunch didn't like the way the vegetables were presented. The roast beef was delicious and that is all I ate

1st time me&dad eat and drank here very good I'd recommend it😋👍

Lovely pub , great food. So welcoming!! Definitely be back .

Best batter on a piece of fish I've ever had. Staff were lovely

Ordered the battered Haddock with mushy peas and chips... The batter was overcooked and burnt in some parts which made it inedible and also the mushy peas were just garden peas which were as hard as nails... I highly recommend going to a different place

Tasty meal, good service. Beautiful atmosphere 👌

Much better food and service lately.

Lovely food and drinks! New owner and rest of the staff were checking in on us diners...lovely touch. The decor has been done tastefully.

Amazing hospitality, nothing is too much for management and staff

Just had an absolutely fantastic meal, sweatbreads followed by pork belly. While my parents had the roast beetroot, chicken and chorizo risotto, then asian potatoes. All the meals were absolutely top quality, the service was great and a really nice atmosphere on top. The chef is obviously having fun with the menu and I look forward to the next menu change and trying what treats are on offer

Food was amazing staff very friendly will definetely be going back

Lovely meal on a lunchtime and very nice staff

We had a lovely night at the church inn. It was a warm and friendly venue for a social evening with friends. The food was delicious and we were well looked after by Mike who was so smiley and helpful. Will definitely return.

The food was stunning, had a pulled lamb and coleslaw flat bread. Totally lush, filling and worth every penny! Excellent service too

What an absolutey amazing atmosphere, beautiful lunch, and all home made 😋 we highly recommend and will definitely be returning in the near future , the staff are very friendly and service is spot on .

Absolutely stunning food,fantastic staff would really recommend going here if in the vicinity

Good pint friendly staff had a good chat, didn't eat there so can't comment on the grub

Really enjoyed the valentine menu, meal was amazing, friendly and clean

Very nice throughout Excellent service very friendly no faults

Went for Sunday roast absolutely delicious.i hear the chef is leaving. Such a shame..hope the replacement can choose and cook food as good as the one now from Yvonne 😋

First visit last night, overall a good impression but a few tweeks would give it a 5. Welcomed as we came in and shown to a table, weirdly there was a large tool box and some venitian blinds on the floor next to us. Nice service from the waitresses but we were left a long time after delivering our drinks and i had to call someone over eventually to take our order. I had the chicken kebab with a side of chips, the kebab was really tasty but i don't think the chicken was cooked fresh to order, more heated and added, all the same it was nice. The chips were really good too and nice and hot. The candle on our table was old and used, a new one that could have been lit would have been a nice touch. Restaurant was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday but the bar area seemed busy, will definitely return to try something else off the menu.

Top class establishment, been here many times, and always impressed with the meals. Xmas day lunch was fantastic! The welcome from the staff, and the constant strive to make everyone's experience, a pleasurable one, will in my opinion, ensure people go back time and time again AAA****

Great Carol service this evening. Really got everyone in the Christmas spirit. Thank you

Lovely cosy pub for a drink. And restaurant a cut above all in the area

Disappointed, we booked for an afternoon tea with santa and in the end was a lunch, I did call twice after the booking and not one told me nothing obviously if I was thinking to have a lunch I didn't book for 4 o'clock. The santa was good, decorations good, the food too. The service not we order drinks for a few times to get it, nobody ask if the food was OK or if we want pudding... when we when to look for a waiter she told us the kitchen was close? How can be the kitchen close if you have customers eating? After all we have the dessert.evern to pay we need to go and look for the waiter

Fabulous meal highly recommended and service was great too

Really sweet family owned pub, definitely worth a visit!

I am happy with this pub.but the only problem is the dark chocolate truffles...its gin and tonic. Overall decent.May come here again

We booked a meal one evening when Wales was playing South Africa in the Rugby. From where we were seated we could hear the clash of dinning music and ABBA in the distance on top of the occasional cheers of Rugby fans in the bar. The staff were very friendly and the food appeared quickly. I ordered a decent plate of fish 'n chips and my girlfriend ordered vegan macaroni and cheese which was swimming in oil. Rugby aside, the atmosphere was a bit confused and the veggie option was disappointing though compensated by great service and very friendly staff. Solid but not amazing.

On site parking, smart stylish frontage. Very nice welcome from behind the bar as soon as you enter. Good range of beers and wines etc. Excellent menu of intriguing gastro starters and mains, and the food lived up to its appeal. Excellent friendly and attentive service. Small range of gastro desserts. Excellent evening out.

Visited today with my daughter and a friend for afternoon tea. Exceptionally good, beautifully served on pretty crockery with a lovely table display by a friendly helpful waitress. What a treat! Highly recommended.

my first visit to the church inn waited 1/2hr plus for the meal,roast potatoes were rock hard the veg were tiny in size suspect frozen not fresh and portion for two people in small dish the beef was sliced as thin as ham in my opinion not worth £12.50 ahead on the plus side the waitress staff were very helpful but I won't be having Sunday lunch there again

Good food here. Generous portions! Good beer & over 100 gins to try! What's not to like!?!?

A delightful time excellent for families. Staff are very efficient with the service.

Food was absolutely amazing, service was excellent with staff often asking if more drinks were needed, friendly atmosphere. Would highly recommend

Cracking place lovely landlady, had a nice meal and it was dog friendly, the landlady even held our dog Reg while we eat our food. Friendly staff would highly recommend

Great evening meal out with family. Imaginative and varied menu made it hard to choose - and all dishes were excellent,served quickly, presented beautifully, and very tasty.

I really don't want to tell anyone about this gem of a place just in case I'm unable to book again. The food is just fantastic so tasty and fresh. Sunday lunch the roast potatoes are to die for. The Church Inn has a great warm feel to it. A big thanks for the excellent service. This is the place to come to eat and drink. Number one pub in Cardiff.

What an amazing place. So friendly land lady is such a great hostess. Excellent choice of gins and ales.

Lovely sunday lunch and plenty of it highly recommended

Despite living in the area for many years I've never been in, or wanted too. We decided to give it a try as under new management and went with my mum and young daughter. Wow, Beautiful food! If like us you are fed up of chain restaurant's/pubs, give this a go you wont be disappointed. Lovely decor and great service, the staff were very attentive. You can see the new owners have put a lot of time and care into the pub. We will definitely be back, it's great to have a place like this on our doorstep, serving such good food!!

First visit ..food delicious!!!

It was lunchtime and looking for a panini or baguette. Not on the menu but had a snack/starter of focaccia and smoked salmon. Very nice.

Lovely shaded seating area outside, Sunday lunch smelt beautiful

Thank you for making it possible for us to of been able to get together and celebrate our Daughters 21st . All the team were lovely and friendly. Our barman for the evening is a credit to your team. He was friendly and efficient all evening and nothing was to much trouble Thank you Nicola & Team for having us.

This used to be The Bluebell Inn.

Absolutely superb. The best gluten free dish and chips I've ever had. A lovely environment and amazing staff and management. Very highly recommended.

My wife & I stopped unannounced at The Church Inn for a late lunch on Tues 25th May (first-ever visit). Excellent food & service then, and equalled again this afternoon when we brought two friends along - and they were similarly impressed.

Can’t fault it! Never been before, visiting family in the area. Decided on dinner on the spur of the moment, called ahead and managed to grab a table, it was a Wednesday night but quite busy as it was Quiz Night!! Ahem, we won!!!! Menu was select with 3 courses. Understand from the Restaurant Manager that it is changed regularly, so shouldn’t get stale. Food was delivered in good time, despite Manager’s related apologies for delays…..!!! I believe the place has had a change of management and focus, from my point of view, it’s all good!! Check it out

Great place to enjoy afternoon tea 🍵😊

Lovely little pub and the staff were extremely friendly.

Great atmosphere and the refurb is spot on, well done ✔

Great food, fantastic service in lovely surroundings 👌👌

Roast beef Sunday lunch was quality

Fathers day lunch, burnt yorkshires and stir fried mixed vegetables, beef was nice. Yuk won't be returning for food,

Fantastic food , really lovely atmosphere we ate there a couple of weeks ago and are going again to their steak night , can’t wait , we had a chat with the landlord and landlady a week before it opened and they showed us around and recognised us when we went back for a meal , so friendly, keep up the good work

I speak as you find, what a fantastic Sunday lunch at the church Inn. Great value and suburb quality food. Highly recommended.

Really shocked at how fantastic a day at the church was. Completely new pub. The decor was clean and classic with a really good outdoor area. We originally popped in for a drink, but the quality of the place combined with really good quality booze we decided to give the food a go. So happy we did, it was amazing! Topped the night off with couple of reasonably priced delicious cocktails. We've been desperately seeking a quality local pub and now we've found it. 100% be back.

Excellent Food and Service!! Will visit again.

Used to be the Bluebell Inn. New Landlady is Nicola. It is very nice and been done out as well to a high standard. New beer garden part under cover and an outside bar and more outside seating as well. The covered part has heaters and the are blanketsfor you to use. Which is a nice touch as the weather is not what it should be at the moment. All New staff and very helpful. First time been since it re opened. Will be going again. Plenty of seating and all Socially Distanced. You need to book in advance at the moment. Well worth a visit particularly if you like Gin. They have 110 different ones to choose from. So that is a lot of visits to do them all justice!

Had a lovely evening in The Church Inn .Thoroughly recommend the Tapas Tuesday .Lovely food ,lovely atmosphere, lovely staff .

We only had drinks there, but the food other people had looked very nice.

Great night out. Lovely staff who helped with everything.

Thankyou Nicky for fitting us in this sunday, Sunday lunch and Desserts outstanding.

Beautiful, tasty meal and wine. Cosy, warm and dry outdoor space. Friendly staff.

1st time there and most impressed. Great outdoor eating area, under cover thankfully as it poured down! Good variety on the menu, friendly service. Will return

Lovely outside space, fab gin bar and the food was nice too. Helpful & friendly staff.

Really nice place and the staff are brilliant

Had a lovely afternoon yesterday, food was excellent. Staff were fab, so friendly - would definitely recommend & can't wait to go again. Thank you.

Fabulous lunch and excellent service from the staff would highly recommend The Church Inn.

Lovely Pork Sunday takeaway lunch, can't wait for pub to reopen

Since the refurb its much better looking forward to going back

Love the Church Inn. They are so welcoming and their afternoon teas are great. All covid regulations are adhered to so you feel safe and relaxed. Well worth a visit

This pub has recently changed management. The food was delicious, so tasty, well presented and reasonably priced. Adhered to COVID regulations. Below is the fish cake, amazing.
