The Mount Stuart - JD Wetherspoon in Cardiff

Just another good old Wetherspoons

One of the nicest wetherspoons I have been in. Nice atmosphere, a nice view from the balcony, nice toilets.

Typical spoons. Very busy but was a six nations day. Food and drinks were fine. Wasn't quick but didn't wait longer than 40 mins.

Lovely food and great service. Nice and warm too

Beautiful location and good selection of beers . Loads of room but acoustics were great so not noisy!

Okay food, did not have to wait long

Had nice fish n chips here and the pizza looks good as well

Really good night out, door staff doing an amazing job, will definitely return when nest in the area

Average food, nothing special, cheap and edible.

Wetherspoon pub, so very reasonable prices with some good beer selections. Have been a few times over the years when I have been in Cardiff. Has been consistently good place for a beer. However never eaten here, but assume its standard Wetherspoon fair.

Absolute shambles. Went to watch the rugby. Watches the Ireland v France game first. Waited for our country to play Scotland. And waited, and waited. We all asked several times, and to our utter disappointment there was no bbc1 to watch the game. An extremely rude young lady who works there then questioned us because we complained. We left and watched the game in the Dock next door. Rude staff and remember, no BBC1 in 2025!

We visited the Mount Stuart for lunch with our grandchildren. We all had different meals and all were nicely presented and tasty. They were all excellent value for money too. We had a super friendly person called Alex looking after us, both at the bar and table. He made our visit even better with his great customer care. He's a credit to the venue.

Sometimes pop in here when I'm in the bay area....not so much of a traditional pub vibe....but a contemporary high ceiling large open space bar and restaurant perhaps....on at least two floors with a balcony terrace area also....lots of air and light from the largely glass structure....not really a bargain basement spoons perhaps.... service adequate to good.... sometimes even friendly with a hello!....food and drink seem to be good....bit of a draw back is it's often absolutely jam packed....from my experience anyways....some guy came with his partner and sat at a table I was using to dine once last summer....it was fully occupied....had to ask the manager to ask them politely to move!....never mind.... certainly a nice spot on a quieter day perhaps.... I would certainly give a general recommendation....

Really the smallest portion I have ever had in a westhespoons. What a let down

Typical big busy place .. Ordered on app, quick polite service

Great location and have been here previously, albeit a few years ago. This time I went for lunch with my child, they had the tomato pasta with cheese, I had the buttermilk chicken burger and ordered an extra buttermilk chicken. Low score is due to the food, the tomato pasta sauce didn't taste nice, had a very thick dry consistency. The chicken was quite mushy and thin, I did finish all my food but even the little one didn't like the chicken when I gave them a piece. Chips were nice though. Whilst I didn't expect a la carte, it was just disappointing that I left there feeling I wasted £25 and should have got us lunch elsewhere.

The staff were pleasant. But I found them to be rushed off their feet as it was a really busy place, especially about midday on a week day.

Chicken jalfrezi came with 2 poppadoms dripping with grease. I couldn't eat them. All the dry roasted peanuts behind the bar were on the best before date and the nuts tasted metallic. Exchanged these for spicy peanuts which had blood (not mine) on the packet. Also only 1 real ale (Abbot) above 4.3% abv. A very poor experience.

Love weatherspoon pub. Went there for a meal before going to the theatre. Quick service hassle free ordering through the app.

Good food, was a bit cold and draughty

A lively Wetherspoons right on the front of Cardiff bay. Service was great, food came in good time

The glasses they put the soft drink in smell funny and the chips were to greasy also burger is awful

Witherspoon pub located in Cardiff Bay.

Had a meal this evening. Asked the staff member could meet have tartar sauce. If there's none out we haven't got any was tye reply. Lies. Came back after the shield and all restocked. Too lazy to sort out. 9th February.. Blonde girl with glasses.

Decent wetherspoons. Lots of dodgy characters in here, but to be fair the bouncers were on em.

I love that place 😍 Food is good, beer is cheaper and still tasty 😋 really nice staff:)

Really liked this Weatherspoons. Service was great, food came out as it should,however, I did visit three times whilst it was quiet.

Always a lovely pub. Good food. Fast and friendly service

As spoons go this is one of the better ones. Only go here on a Friday for breakfast and it's probably the best spoons breakfast

Great pub, really nice modern spoons. The views over the bay on a sunny day are amazing

Chicken southern fried Wrap was really awful didn't look appetising cost enough waitress dropped pot of coleslaw off one of other meals didn't come back to wipe it up so left to the customer to clean floor

Lovely place to catch up with friends

Compared to other Wetherspoons quality of food here was bad.

Food was good Wetherspoons fare. Served promptly. More expensive in Wetherspoons dynamic pricing. Pleasant and efficient staff. Can get busy and noisy. Very popular Friday and Saturday. Update 23/01/2025. Still a smart Wetherspoons. Food OK, served swiftly. Drinks still expensive by Wetherspoons pricing policy.

Usual Witherspoon pub l, clean, very busy

Great Wetherspoons that overlooks the bay with great views

Easily one of the best spoons I've been to. Great view from upstairs.

Surprised nice experience. It’s was a perfect choice! Food order from app. Kids food was quick and cheap and nice. I ordered a Ramen. It’s was outstanding nice. My wife loved the wrap. Highly recommend!!!

A great spot in the bay to sit and have a drink and something to eat. Great value. Came in here daily on pur trip down cardiff bay. Plenty of space to sit also

Typical Wetherspoons. Can't say anything negative

Brilliant location. Is you go in the summer the outside area looks amazing.

It's ok shouldn't have to go all the way up stairs to find a toilet slipped on glass stairs on way back down my back is in half still 2 days later

This is a Wetherspoons but it has the best view of any bar or restaurant in the Bay. It's very well maintained unlike the inner city Spoons pubs that I won't mention here. This is however reflected in the price. Expect to pay £1 more per pint in this place than other Spoons. It also has a limited menu e.g. it doesn't do steaks. Overall top notch place and I'd recommend it for a few cheap drinks before going somewhere else.

Really nice food, quick service, and great staff.

Great food and drinks and affordable prices, served very quickly by friendly staff.

Nice pub in a great location. Clean and friendly. Typical wetherspoons food. You get what you pay for!

Disappointed this evening. They do not sell steaks at this Wetherspoons.

Nice big pub , Great selection of drinks & food . Lovely fish & chips , Will be back when in area again. Well done spoons .

All 👍 Great location if the weather is good

The place was clean and tidy. Staff were friendly and polite. The new festive menu was amazing. The food and drink were delicious.

It was just ok like the McDonald's of the pub world the staff were brilliant

Won't go again Food was rubbish for the price, Should of had a mc Donald's

Great food, freshly cooked pizzas, friendly and helpful staff, good atmosphere, everything was spotlessly clean and tidy. We were so happy with the evening meal, we came back for breakfast, which was excellent.

Great place to eat or drink ... ordered via app both food and drink arrived very quick would eat here again when in Cardiff

Preferred this place before brexit.

Always like coming to weatherspoons. Cheap and cheerful Although our breakfast was cold on this occasion Returning customer 👍

Great location overlooking the bay

Very family friendly and accommodating.

Lovely spoons. great view of the bay from the balcony. I want to especially thank employee John for being so helpful for fixing the hot chocolate machine for us when we were there

Great and always nice.. Great chain we visit as many different ones as we can....

In the Lunch time, I ordered soup noodles and juice and chill with my friends on the roofs...good weather.

Food is 🤢 disgusting! Cheap and taste so bad ! Nice place for a pint or chill out but not for food

Witherspoon always good value for money but this pub is always very busy.

Good atmosphere, very nice building, food is okay nothing fancy, nice by the water

Extremely quick service at a busy time of the day. Food & drinks exceptional and well priced. Staff friendly and helpful.

Great, modern pub in super location.

Dropped in after cycling the Taff Trail. Very busy place but service was pretty swift.

I thought I would find the same things I drank in Cuba but with unpleasant surprise I can say that it was truly a disappointment

Great views of the bay from inside or the first floor terrace. Loads of space over two levels and interesting as it has a new section attached to a historic dock building. Good option for food or drink in the bay at reasonable prices and good beer selection

The Mount Stuart, one of the best spoons. This cozy pub offers a great atmosphere, affordable drinks, and tasty food. We ordered a delicious pizza to pair with our beers, and it was the perfect way to unwind. Plus, the convenience of ordering through the app at our table made the experience even smoother. If you're searching for a budget-friendly pub with good vibes, definitely give this one a try

We always have a great experience at Wetherspoons Mount Stuart. The staff are friendly and the food is amazing. The prices for food and drink is hard to beat.

Great place Great service Fun family catch up

Could have been a more relaxed atmosphere + friendlier felt the place was only intrested in getting your money!!

A nice wetherspoons, pleasent barman. However the food is not one of the best spoons I have eaten at, I do not recomend the ham egg and chips 😝

Best view of any Wetherspoons pub!

Food was good and our waiter Joe was extremely patient with us and was a excellent waiter

Big place with two floors and a nice balcony on the top floor. Food is hit or miss and the drinks, atmosphere, decor and clientele is typical of what you’d expect from a Wetherspoon pub.

Enjoyed my afternoon and good atmosphere

Worst Wetherspoons experience I have ever had! Chips were undercooked. Chicken burger tasted like rubber and was so hard I left it as was inedible. My husband ordered a side of bread and butter with his fish and chips and they brought out curry instead (rather different choice). Asked for mayo to be told they didn’t have any, only to see about 20 bottles when I went upstairs to use the toilet. Therefore clearly just too lazy to go upstairs. My mum asked a question about whether the chicken strips were chicken breast and the staff member was rude and wouldn’t ask the kitchen. Ordered hot chocolate fudge cake and it came out cold. The toilets were absolutely disgusting and in desperate need of a clean. Needless to say we will not be returning.

Great experience here, the staff were very friendly, the venue was clean and it was not a noisy environment. The food we ordered came quickly and was a good standard. The wetherspoons app makes it very easy to order. The only slight issue with this restaurant is the toilet is upstairs, so if you're far away from the stairs sat downstairs, it could be an issue for some.

Great huge Wether spoons with views across Tiger Bay

Another of JD Wetherspoon's great creations - a large waterfront building with lots of space, two floors and reasonable prices.

Speedy service, well cooked food, quite busy, easy to find a table, but it might need clearing and cleaning

Part of the Wetherspoon group. Cheep food and beer

Visited twice.. both times there stock on app had not bern updated and they didn't actually have the drink I ordered. Staff were lovely, food was okay but not the best

Good family breakfast, could do with pancakes on the menu but apart from that great.

Super friendly staff and good value drinks

All the staff are so nice and polite!

Popped here with my sister and our children after techniquest. Lots of food and drink to choose from at great prices, decent portions, arrived hot and very quickly. Staff were brilliant with the kids and really interacted with them. Thank you for making what could be a very stressful meal mid summer holidays into a lovely evening.

As you would expect it to be...it was busy. Managed to get a table for 9 upstairs on the mezzanine. Ordered via the app and it was quick and efficient for the drinks. Slight hiccup on food but it was quickly rectified with clear communication from out waiter. Only point of disappointment was the size of the portions really. The burgers was more like kid sizes or McDonald's hamburger sizes. Chip portions we also pretty small and glad I ordered an additional plate for the kids. Pizza was good. One down side was cutlery was dirty.

A family bite to eat in Cardiff Bay and prior to everyone going to see Becky Hill. The food was delicious with the new menu bit sad to see some old classics gone like mixed grill.

Ordered food for 2 with drinks, lovely food and decent staff at first. Went back an hour later then was kicked out of the beer garden because we had our dog. Was too embarrassed to tell him I was disabled as there was many customers around and had my assistant dog with me. Never again! And spent a good amount on drink, was served with no isssue with my dog at first. Absolute idiot.

Best Guinness I’ve ever had in a spoons

Really nice Spoons situated right on the sea front. Excellent staff, excellent service, good prices

Right on the waterfront had coffee, staff friendly, good service no probs 👍

Sunny day so great time to visit here as its right on Cardiff bay. Pub was clean and had a nice atmosphere. Our order arrived promptly and food was great. Perfect fish in crispy batter and tasty burger, both with chips. Food was a nice size portion and nice and warm. All in all a great visit. Staff were very attentive and efficient. We parked across the road in a multistorey car park.

1. We had to eat with someone else's crap still all over our table, staff cleaned most of it and never came back for the rest. 2. By the time we had our drinks, we'd already eaten. I had to get up to chase my drinks. 3. Place is absolutely rammed, and everything is sticky. Had to stand around and wait for a seat as people steal them to fit their group of 13 around a table. Leaving tables with no chairs. Not even the tables are wiped over between customers. I feel for the staff that don't have a moment to breath or think. Never again.

A lesser range of beers than most Weatherspoons but an interesting building and staff above the usual standard of Weatherspoons. I would probably put this in my favourite top three favourite Weatherspoons, mostly down to the staff.

A very busy Wetherspoons, clean and properly maintained. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Good little establishment, decent food, portion size was good and service was quick. Lovely views of the bay when sat outside
