The Grange Pub in Cardiff

Not been here for over 40 years and it's improved

The Grange has all the best features of a traditional pub !! And great music, on the night I visited !!

Great pub for socialising and meeting with friends Clean and relaxing Great staff all around 👍

Only called in for a quick drink on the way home but the service was great and there's a good selection of drinks. A nice local pub with a nice atmosphere.

Lovely food, warm welcome and great atmosphere - thank you

Exactly what a pub should be. Solid drink selection, few local beers on, reasonable pricing. Food is banging, classic pub meals done right. Staff are friendly, genuine and efficient. For real every other pub could take a lesson from The Grange

Fantastic pub. Absolutely first rate Sunday lunch. Great atmosphere and really friendly staff. Don’t be put off by the outside, which looks a bit tired, the rest of your experience will be well worth the short journey from the centre of Cardiff.

Having a local pub as stellar as this one is a true rarity, and my partner and I have enjoyed every visit here during our two year stint in Grangetown. Whether enjoying the rare Welsh sun in the beer garden, tucking into a GFC (Grange Fried Chicken), or borrowing their behind-the-bar chess set, we've always felt welcome and relaxed. The staff are really what set this place apart – we've had lovely exchanges with pretty much everyone who works there. I wish only good things for this pub and it's cohort and am sad we can't take the whole place with us when we move x

Had the coldest beer in Cardiff great atmosphere and great staff

Lovely pub and food is outstanding. Vast assortment of various beers and wines

I drive from Aberystwyth regularly to go to their Wednesday quiz. Great food, great atmosphere and a good range of booze and soft drinks

Food was really good, although fries are skin on, which isn't something I particularly like. Prices were reasonable and portions very generous.

£42.50 for very poor meal, basically large plates of chips. The manger was rude and raised his voice to me. The wine was bad, I mentioned I like New Zealand sauvignan blanc. He told me it was too expensive to buy in. I suggested as few places it was cost effective, he then told me that Villa Marie was not a Marlborough!!!!!! Argumentative manager not good for the hospitality trade. Photos for your information.

The Grange pub was a lovely place atmosphere was good didn't have any food but it looked nice definitely go there again.

Good ale, good food, excellent ambience. Merciiiiiiiiiiii

I love The Grange. My favorite pub in this region.

Great meal, plenty of it. Decent selection of beers

It's what a great pub should be... Excellent food and drink - including some well kept ales, genuine community and some fun events. And there's even some good outside space, a rarity in the city.

Beer a bit expensive but that's Cardiff I suppose.

The best fried chicken meal I’ve had ! The golden chicken comes with fries,gravy and coleslaw. Perfectly pairs with many of the beers on tap. The pub also has a garden outside which is fantastic for the sunny days

Actually, we came here SEVERAL times during our visit to Cardiff - we liked it so much1 But..listen...get the fish and chips here. I know you're supposed to get them at a dive, or a chippery, or whatever...but THESE fish and chips are to die for. Not greasy, super flaky, with FRESH mushy peas! NOM NOM NOM!!

Stopped into a friends local for Sunday lunch. We all had the topside of beer a few local cask ales and a great bottle of red. Nice atmosphere, vibrant, friendly staff that don’t mind stopping to have a chat with you. Food was prompt, hot and in good portion size. All very tasty and some of the best horseradish I’ve had. We also stopped in a few times over the week for some of its cask ales. Nice, big, clean beer garden as well.

Haven't tried the food yet, but the beer was spot on. Staff also really friendly 👍👍 A really nice pub.

Great local pub for drinks and food.

I feel very lucky that this is my local pub. Great food, really friendly staff and excellent pub vibes. One of the best Sunday roasts in the city. Dog and child friendly. Massive beer garden. Weekly quiz. Live sports

Very very expensive place, I paid £7 for one lager…

Great local pub with a wide selection of ales, plus Haze on tap which is a plus for me! Fried chicken is delicious.

Went in for a couple of pints before heading to the Principality for the rugby. Ended up staying until the last second after finding a stellar IPA, watching the earlier game on the big screen, and ordering a plate of fried chicken after seeing how good it looked on the next table. Booking essential on busier days.

Lovely cosy pub with great food, often events like international sports matches being shown, pub quizzes etc etc good for kids too with high chairs, kids menu and a selection of toys, as well as a bit of outside space

Love this pub nice atmosphere and good food. Amazing beer garden for the summer and lots of space. Food is great too

Good vibes. Great Food. Great pub quiz.

Lovely 'local' with friendly staff and good selection of beers and ales. Good selection of food on the menu at reasonable prices. Proper bar and tidy lounge. I recommend the Dirty Fries.

Good place to grap a pint before Wales games about 20 min walk to to Cardiff city ground.

Always great beer and a good atmosphere

The Grange was absolutely brilliant. Our group of eight old farts were greeted with open arms..good food,great service, outstanding welcome!!👏

A real gem of a place. Eight of us "Old blokes" turned up today at random. Great range of beers, lovely atmosphere, and the food was the icing on the cake. Just superb good service. Hope to be back soon

A dog-friendly bar with a variety of food and drink options. They have many options in terms of lager/beer/pale ale (They also serve many Welsh Lagers and Pale Ales here). The popular dish, Grange Fried Chicken (GFC), is a hearty portion of amazingly seasoned chicken and chips, house-slaw, corn, and gravy. Another favourite of mine is the loaded fries. However, since the topping changes every week, sometimes the dish can be underwhelming. The Grange holds its weekly quiz night on Wednesdays! The Quiz night has a very good atmosphere and the best teams win prizes.

Great pub- great atmosphere and the food is delicious. A hidden gem

Great Sunday roast abd dog friendly too!

An all-around great pub. Very busy for mid-week with amazing staff behind the bar. They've a decent selection of draught beers and a reasonably sized menu, although I didn't try the food. Its a little out of the way of the city centre but worth the trip

Dog friendly. Kid friendly. All round good atmophere

A great pub! Go here every Wednesday for the pub quiz, thought we would try the roast on a Sunday, was very nice! Make sure to book, it can sell out quite quick!

It was a Monday night so it was quite, but a nice pub and staff are friendly

You need to preorder the Sunday roast via Facebook the day before to avoid disappointment. It wasn't busy at all but we didn't preorder as they just have a Facebook page, didn't know you have to message then there to book your Sunday roast.. burguers where fine, but so sad to visit cardiff and try far away rather than in town to help local businesses and don't get what you want to eat cause of lack of info.

Nice pub, good beer and food, but the men’s toilets are absolutely honking. Unbearable smell of urine, burns the nostrils

Excellent ale cellar with friendly staff and great pub garden. 3 darts lanes and good food menu

We ate here twice during our stay in Cardiff, first day and last dinner. It was the local pub down the street from our Airbnb. Just walked in on first afternoon and bartender was super friendly and the food was great. Fried chicken sandwich and burgers. Seriously might be best chicken sandwich of my life. Not a busy restaurant downtown. This place full of locals and in a middle class area. Beer was great and bartender gave excellent advice regarding places to visit. Highly recommend.

Classic pub! Top vibe, cold bevs and great service!

Good selection of drinks, including a few different ciders. Relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. I had fish and chips (really well done) but my husband's loaded fries were disappointing- however, the fries/chips themselves were excellent and the toppings change, so it may be better other days. We would definitely go back.

Excellent foods, lovely staff & board games if your date is dryer than a biscuit

Great traditional pub serving good beers, wines and foods.

Good home cooked food. Menu changes every 6 months. Good variaty. Nice atmospher and friendly staff.

Was awesome spot to stumble into. Great service from friendly staff and really good food that we enjoyed in the wonderful garden lounge out back. Look forward to our next visit

Some top ales to be had here, loved the Electric Bear beers A real treat

I had an incredibly good time at The Grange!!! Starting with drink, there is a wide selection of beers and spirits that are sure to sate anyone's tastes. The pub has a grand atmosphere; between the music, the (entirely positive) smell of old wood, and the meticulous decorum it maintains itself as a really approachable and genuine. I've had the loaded fries with cauliflower cheese and bacon, as well as an incredible sweet mayonnaise (I think it was mixed with cranberry???) That really blew my mind. Generous portions, I skipped breakfast and was still fully satisfied after. The staff were friendly, a special shout-out out to "Bunny" James who was very knowledgeable about the beers on tap, as well as genuinely warm and helpful in every matter. Highly recommended for anyone, from solo travellers to families.

Definitely the best pub in Grangetown, less than ten minutes walk from the back of Cardiff Central Station. Decent choice of beers, a really good beer garden, the pub is also dog friendly. The food is fantastic, really really enjoyed the fried chicken burger, as well as the wings.

One of the Best pubs in Cardiff, with a great pint of Guinness amongst other drinks. friendly staff a brilliant pub grub. Dog friendly with a lush beer garden.

Great beer, great atmosphere. Will come back to try the quiz

Nice pub and selection of beers

Nice pub with great traditional food

The Grange is a fab pub and one of our favourites on the west side of the river. There are always at least 3 Real Ales, usually great changing guests. The staff are really friendly and the pints are good quality and a good price for so close to Cardiff city centre

I ate in the Grange yesterday with a vegetarian friend. Excellent menu choice for both of us. Our meals were well prepared and presented. I like that they’ve not made it in to a yuppi pub but I am getting concerned about the proliferation of craft ales, they’re not to my taste but that is a personal thing. Did I mention the staff? They couldn’t be better, I was even offered tasters of beers so I could make my choice. I will be visiting again soon. —————————— Tues 4th April 2023 - One year on and it was even better than last time. The menu is improved if that’s possible. Plenty of veggie choice if that’s your thing. Still a smidge disappointed there’s no bitter available but the food makes up for that. Highly recommended (again) try it, you won’t be disappointed. Well done all at the grange👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Great place for a pre match pint

Bar staff very friendly, premises clean and tidy.

The Guinness here is so so good, the best pint I've had outside of Ireland, it still tastes amazing in the traditional pre-football match plastic glasses! Also amazing pub food and a great atmosphere before Wales games.

Lovely little pub . Very friendly staff.

Warm and friendly. Solid customer service. Appetising menu, and a cracking selection at the bar. This venue gets it.

Good old school pub, clean and cosy, and friendly staff. Lovely food, good choice of drinks and reasonably priced.

Traditional real ale pub run by and for the local community but a great welcome for everyone. Good food to go with the excellent choice of beers. Whenever I'm in Cardiff this is my first choice of watering hole.

Just got back from having lunch here. The food was fantastic and more than I could finish. I had the Pork Belly. It was cooked perfectly and was accumpanied by cabbage, cauliflower, roast potatoes, carrots, parsnip, yorkshire pud and gravy. Well recommended by me. Its a feast for stomach and eyes 💯

Gone downhill since it opened. Gents toilets were stinking so badly the amonia vapours brought tears to your eyes. Not what you expect for a pub that charges £7 to £9 for a glass of wine.

Lush Sunday lunches, great service and a lovely atmosphere.

Not everyone is a dog lover I asked if They would consider having a dog free day at Least once a year the answer is no, There’s Equality for you

Lovely vegan curry, friendly staff, great service

Lovely pub. Really friendly staff and some nice beers

Great pub in Cardiff. Great food I had fish and chips and the loaded fries looked amazing. Good range of beers. Brilliant music too! Can’t wait to return

Great Sunday roast. I think my mate gaz is on commission. Can't come to Cardiff without him taking me here

Good beer (although not cheap), good food, nice atmosphere (if a bit noisy when you're trying to have a chat).

Lovely atmosphere, great choice of pub food including vegan, clean toilets!

Great pint. Friendly place. Closest pub to bingo lingo if looking for a pre bingo beer

One of my things about living in Grangetown - nice pub, people are friendly, dog friendly (which is as a dog fan is a massive perk), vegan food feels like it's not an afterthought and is nice! Good beer selection and whilst I've not taken part yet I've heard the pub quiz and I've worked out the answers myself and it's a good time

Nice cosy place with lovely beer garden. Would also recommend the food, Burger and fish and chips were delicious

Very friendly traditional pub serving a great range of draft beer and ciders along with plenty of wines, spirits etc. Also sell food, the menu looks good, although we'd already eaten before our visit. Family friendly too. Well worth stopping off if you're passing by.

Christmas dinner was excellent - lovely food and friendly staff

I'd wanted to come here for years whilst living in Cardiff but unfortunately never had the chance.. I finally took my partner here for a Sunday roast, and the Grange did not disappoint! The staff were friendly, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was lovely and vibrant... Definitely recommend!!!

Walked in at 8.55pm. Last orders for food was 9pm. Staff got to me at 9.01pm and refused me food. 1 minute passed 9pm if the 2 staff were not chatting it would have been OK. I think the kick in the teeth is the "9.01pm sorry with a grin" that made my blood boil. I eat there not massively, twice a month with my partner bit that's me done.

This place could be better, I visited on a football home game but unfortunately every table in the two rooms of the pub was reserved I can only guess for a quiz???? Leaving myself and quite a few other families having to stand and get in other patrons way, not ideal with young children.

Pub Quiz....full house...Great food...cold drinks and great staff.

One of the last remaining proper pubs in Cardiff

Always hood food and atmosphere

Very good Sunday lunch although at £15 slightly on the expensive side for a local pub.

Great atmosphere, nice selection of beers 🍻.

New decor new management and doing great food lovely staff

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, food was Ok

Great atmosphere, great service

Lovely pub inside. Doesn't look like a chain pub. Has lots of character inside. Nice to see dogs allowed inside. Food was really good. Few bad things; Doesn't specify on menu if the Grange fried chicken is on or off the bone. (I should have asked too) They didn't serve any deserts when we went on a friday night. Would definitely go back and recommend to others too.

Having moved to Grangetown a few years ago, The Grange has become our much loved local. Dai and the team do a brilliant job. Love the place!

Good service and a nice beer garden also with a shelter if raining

Good food : home made fries, the best burger i have eaten for years ! Curry is very good too . Good choice of beers and nice vibes !

Lovely fish and chips and club sandwich with my lovely sister in law Tracy
