Awful pub. The woman managing this pub has a mouth like a sewer and drinks too much. Used to like using this pub 2 or 3 times a week but it’s gone downhill, it’s a horrible atmosphere and I’d rather use the Crofts Or the Elms. Staff were ok but Manager always drunk, swans around in a tracksuit all day or pjs. Drink across the road in a proper pub, I’ll never use the place again, dirty disgusting drug den, Brewery scraping the barrel with the person running the pub

Nicola Dearden here on my sons account to review as I’ve been to the Clifton quite a few times but can honestly say under new management it’s a huge difference, cleaner, very friendly landlord kerry and her staff are the most welcoming. They went out of our way to look after us. We travel from Pembroke as great atmosphere in the Clifton. But unfortunately when there is sports on we have to go elsewhere to which is disappointing as we’re leaving a fantastic pub and hotel to go elsewhere which we don’t really want to leave. Travelling up soon so looking forward to seeing you all. Cheers love Nicola 🙌🍺🍻

And since the new land lady Kerry has taken over it,s 100 0/0 improved lovely bar snacks great entertainment and a fabulous welcome from all barstaff and local customers. I would suggest to anyone if your in Cardiff give it a try you would be made to feel welcome. 5 stars from. Me Xx

Arrived about 9pm to find live entertainment provided in the form of karaoke. The staff were attentive and welcoming. The premises were clean and tidy. The bar prices were reasonable for the vicinity of Cardiff. Though the evening was marred by two passing female 'chancers' trying to steal a handbag. - Though this was not the 'fault' of the staff or patrons.

I found this pub was mostly where regular customers go as most people seemed to know each other, they were quite friendly and didn't make you feel like they didn't want you there, which is what tends to happen when I've been to other places like this pub. But although the customers were very friendly I found that there wasn't a lot of choice in most of the alcohol sold there & I found it quite boring and really wished I had not gone out at all.

A fabulous local! Great selection of beers, and super friendly staff, I visit every Sunday after walking my dog and Dayna the chef brings him a lovely treat just to make him feel welcome(he is usually a bit anxious but not when Dayna is on duty!) The Sunday quiz is also great fun and the atmosphere is buzzing. The food looks amazing but I haven't eaten here in a while-last time it was well above your average pub fodder!

Lovely rooms, this stay we were at the rear of the hotel, which was much quieter than our previous visit but no view, our room that time was at the front, much noisier but looked out over the high street. My one tip would be to request a bath mat for inside the bath - I slipped and fell getting into the bath. All the staff we encountered were lovely and really helpful if asked anything.
