The Potted Pig in Cardiff

We had a lovely late lunch. Food and wine were superb and can’t fault a thing. Thanks to Sim for being so welcoming. Decent portions and high value for the quality of meals we had.

My son booked this as a treat he was visiting from USA. The food & service were very disappointing, certainly not worth the price paid. We never complained as didn’t want to upset our son. We just won’t go back.

Wow! just superb First time here, on a recommendation Doorway leads downstairs to an old bank vault, beautifully & tastefully redecorated. Welcome and service throughout was second to none, also a lovepy atmosphere. Then the food, delicious! Had the Potted pig starter followed by Lamb belly and we shared a side of pomme puree too,nhubny ate a scallop & chorizo starter followed by the same mains (his starter was small by comparison but made up by taste! Neither of us had room for dessert (I think I eill go for the smaller starter to leave room next time!) Good selection of drinks too, non alcoholic cider for hubby and a beautiful white Rioja for myself. Had a look in their wine cellar too! If you want a lovely evening with great food and service, go here!! I will definately be going back!

Walked in off the street, wasn’t sure if we would stay but the smell of the food drew us in . The food is excellent , we just went with a share plate to start with . Pork belly was bloody beautiful. Went into the mains , the venison for me and the stuffed chicken for my wife . We loved it and great sides . Deserts were also very good. A great Tempranillo supported the meal beautifully. Great vibe and engaging service.

I was a little put off by some recent mixed reviews but my wife and I found the Sunday lunchtime experience 1st class. Th service throughout was friendly and efficient and the food of a consistently high standard (and plentifu)l. The cost is a little higher than we would normally pay but we both felt it was worth it for the service and food we received.

Great location in the centre of town situated in the Vault of an old bank. Great Sunday lunch offer good quality representing reasonable value. Service very friendly and appropriate.

If you want to try traditional Welsh food but in a more sophisticated atmosphere this is definitely the place to go! Great food and services. Would recommend book it in advance cause it gets pretty busy!

My bf originally wanted to come here for our dinner on Saturday but we couldn’t find a table for the day so we came on the Sunday to make a reservation for later on. Luckily they had a table for us as someone had cancelled earlier on in the day, which was perfect for us. I got the Brown Butter Shrimp, Sourdough Toast and my bf got the Potted Pig, Pickles, Toasted Sourdough. For mains I got the Lamb Shoulder and my bf got the Cider Roasted Pork Belly. Each of our dishes came with roast potatoes, carrots, parsnips, mixed greens & gravy. A Yorkshire pudding was included as well, which I wasn’t aware of, but was very happy to receive on the plate. The food tasted delicious and I would definitely want to try out the dishes from the other menus they offer. The staff here were also super friendly especially with finding us a spare table and getting us extra sauces for our dishes.

Amazing food and a lovely cosy environment. Fantastic service

I ordered the steak. It was delicious but tiny. The salad had no dressing and the chips tasted too oily but my partner had the pork belly and it looked and tasted fantastic.

Me and my partner came in for dinner on Tuesday. The drinks were great, my partner had to get a second ‘Pigsty Martini’ because it was so good, the frosted glass was a lovely touch. Service was a little slow, about 50 minutes between finishing starters and getting mains, but we can appreciate there only seemed to be one girl taking orders and running food and one girl on the bar. The other foh members of staff were sat on laptops the whole time which we found to be a bit questionable. Starters were great, and we found the main dishes to be excellent, as well as the sides of potatoes and carrots - both of which were cooked perfectly and had a great flavour. My partner had the lamb and I had the pollock, both of which were very nice. I thought the pollock was cooked perfectly and I can’t say no to fennel with white fish; the samphire was a bit woody but I can appreciate seasonality. I thought it was a classic french take done well. Not too sure about the bowls because they did look a bit like dog bowls. The only thing we were a bit disappointed with was the rarebit on toast, it was very bland, claggy and all it really tasted of was Worcester sauce and flour. This was a real shame because the sourdough was lovely. We did let the server know we were underwhelmed and she responded with ‘that’s okay!’ so we weren’t sure if she misheard us. We did look at the dessert menu but nothing stood out to us which was a shame. Overall, it was a really pleasant dining experience; lovely atmosphere and some lovely food. We hope to return!

My boyfriend and I showed up for Sunday lunch without a reservation and were seated without any issues. The atmosphere was lovely and staff were super accommodating and friendly! We came wanting to try some Welsh dishes and everything we ordered was delicious! Great experience and good value for money 😋

We were a table of 7. We pre-booked and on arrival at 6.30 were told we had a 2-hour slot, finishing at 8.30. We ordered our starters and these came at 7.35. We then waited until 8.40 for our mains. The food was amazing, but the service was terrible. Our waitress was new to the job and did her very best and we have no complaints about her. The manager was extremely rude when we complained about how long we had waited. People had come in after us, had their meals and left before we had our main meals. We asked for a discount on our food and were told they would drop the air-charge - this is optional anyway??!!! We spent just under £400 and felt we were treated very badly and ignored for most of the time we were there. We had brought our own birthday cake to give to my step-daughter as this was the reason for our meal together - when we asked for plates we were told that we would be charged £5 per slice of cake we dished up!!! Unbelievable as we had all had starters and mains so most of us wouldn’t have gone for a sweet anyway - surely nearly £400 spent was enough to allow us to have a piece of cake each??? The food was amazing, but the managerial level of service made this a bad experience for us all. We won’t be returning.

Food was good well done to the chefs, unfortunately very let down by the staff, well manager jewels. 1.5 hour wait, she was very argumentative. Shame about the manager or I would return 1star due to experience with her, not the food food 4.5 stars

2h slot 6.30 till 8.30 .starter came 7.35.then main came 8.40. Paid car park 18 quid till 9pm . When complained about time it took for main.told OK don't pay service charge blamed my party for ordering wrong stake medium rare.not true.jules I belive was rude and dismissive .saying short staff .table behind us were given bread olives platter as apogy Nothing for my party of 7.we spent a few hundred pounds there..we had a birthday cake we took asked for side plates. They wanted to charge 35 pounds to eat our own cake.

Pre booked group in advance, on arrival taken to table. after enquiring why the meal had not arrived, was given dry olive bread to keep us quiet. after 2 hrs the meals arrived. The manageress told us she was buisy, and they were short of a chef - not all the tables was full and we were not informed prior to arriving, she had an attitude all the other staff were polite.

Great food and unexpected wine selection!

Went for our 20 yr Anniversary. Great food, wonderful service and the drinks were good too. Highly recommend a visit. We will be back

I was incredibly disappointed by The Potted Pig. The prices are extortionate given the tiny portion sizes and lack of taste and seasoning in the food. I couldn't believe it was the same place I came to around the same time a year ago. I was impressed then, but now they seem to have become a victim of their own success and it is very obvious in the poor quality of their food. The duck leg starter was as dry as a desert and not particularly tasty, and the braised lamb belly felt very cheap and fatty. We were both unhappy and felt misled. I left The Potted Pig starving and ended up going to Taco Bell just to fill myself up. I paid 1/8th of the price of The Potted Pig on Taco Bell and it was better. What a crazy world we live in.

Such good food & atmosphere with really incredible staff…a very special experience at such an important time and we cam’t say a big enough thank you 🙏 Brilliant at catering for allergies too and I had my own menu printed out. Can’t wait to come again and highly recommend this amazing restaurant in Cardiff to everyone.

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at the Potted Pig - the service was outstanding even before we arrived. We were unavoidably late for our reservation, and when I called ahead to let them know they were brilliant about it. I have coeliac disease, so I'd emailed beforehand to double check that they could safely cater for me. They got back quickly and confirmed. When we arrived, they had a GF menu ready for me, and I felt safe and looked after, but it was all done in an understated way. Plenty of choice on the menu for me, and all the food (and the gin!) was delicious. Lovely atmosphere, relaxed and friendly; no pretension, just gorgeous food. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend.

We went on recommendation but were disappointed. Food was acceptable but potion size were very small. Spent a quiet deal of money but ended up having to get a KFC bucket to fill up. Also very dark and hence not a family friendly venue at all. If you are drinking alcohol, it would probably be fine. Service was not fantastic for the price.

This was a great independant restaurant in central Cardiff, very good quality food, excellent wine list and relaxed atmosphere. Very well priced for the quality of food and service we received.

Have been a few times now and the food is always lovely, the service welcoming and attentive and the environment really nice - in an old vault.

We visited here on a busy Sunday. The staff greeted us warmly and we were seated straight away (we booked). The food was delicious. With very generous portions and doggy bag available! Special mention for the veg and the Yorkies. We waited almost an hour for food, but they came very quickly with it when I asked.

5th time visiting this place for me and my wife; we had our first date here, engagement celebratory meal, pre-baby meal, a spontaneous meal and most recently, a meal to celebrate our eldest daughters school report (truthfully she’s a bit young to fully enjoy it, but she was desperate to go). The most recent time 15th Aug, was great, lunch was delicious we opted for the lunch deal. The staff were brilliant with our daughter and although there isn’t a kids menu, they were happy to whip up something that we asked for from the menu, in a more child friendly way! Great food, great service and lovely atmosphere!

We ended up reserving here based on the recommendation of the Cardiff tourism website and we are so glad we did! We came with a 2.5 year old, 14 year old and two adults and Molly and her team were more than accommodating. The wine list was quaint but well selected and the restaurant is absolutely charming and chic. However, it was the food that was really stunning with only local ingredients and a superb presentation of different flavors on each dish we had. The Potted Pig would definitely be a first recommendation for anyone visiting and stopping in for dinner or even a quick bite and cocktail. Thank you for the great hospitality!

Great place in Cardiff if you want to go for a bit more fine dining than in the average pub. Super friendly staff, very good food (Welsh lamb and the potted pig!!!) and nice wines

One of the best Sunday roasts we've ever had!

Great meal on our last night in Cardiff, the ambiance was nice.

We ate a Sunday Roast in this restaurant. The cuisine was, indeed, as expected, authentic, simple and generous, like at home. However, the service was quite slow and the place, although having been recommended by the Michelin guide for many years, was not out of the ordinary.

Food was impeccable, a true treat of a meal. Staff were attentive, smiling and friendly

Outstanding! Nice that they have lunch deals making a Michelin resto accesible.

The food was so good. The pork belly was super succulent and tasted great. The lamb was also divine. We would recommend going for the sharing platter as it’s better value for money and you get to try all of the meats. The service was great, Scarlet made sure we were happy with everything. She also came over with some extra gravy literally a few seconds after we’d finished… what a touch! Thanks guys keep up the good work

One of my favourite restaurants in the UK. Absolutely beautiful food. It got so many details in each dish.

Incredible food today, particularly our starters of padrón peppers and the ‘potted pig’ pork. Wine list was varied and great and the recommendation was just perfect for what we had. Thanks so much again and highly recommend - 5stars.

We tried a 3-course Sunday menu. All of them extremely tasty and very well served. Very much so. I was in Wales for a weekend and while researching I found this option that was really worth it!

A fabulous meal from start to finish. I started with the meatloaf - oh my goodness, I could have just kept eating that, it was delicious, main course was Moroccan spiced lamb belly – again delicious with just the right amount of spice. I did not think I had room for dessert, but I went for the cheese board and I can honestly say, I have never had such generous portions of different cheeses. The whole meal was superb. The front of house staff were welcoming and friendly with just the right amount of attentiveness. Our drinks order was taken promptly whilst we perused the menu choices, we did not have to wait too long between courses (despite it being busy) and our meal arrived lovely and hot. All in all, a lovely evening – we will be back

Could do without the sardine appetizer, but the pork lived up to its name

The food was exquisite ! The chef is obviously very talented, as is the service staff. Was pleasantly surprised to find such a wonderful restaurant in the Cardiff pedestrian zone. Thank you for a most memorable meal. Worthy of Chaine des Rotisseurs!

Great atmosphere, tasty food with a great presentation. Pistachio tiramisu was excellent! Attentive service!

A lovely evening at the Potted Pig. The food is intentionally very rich so, after also having starters, ordering sides with the mains meant we couldn’t quite finish all the food. Had very attentive and friendly service, regularly checking in that we were ok and whether we needed anything. Thankfully, after a nice reset after our mains we both managed to find space in our desert tummy’s and the sticky orange cake was excellent!

Absolutely some of the most delicious food we’ve had in a long time. So impressed with the quality and creativity of the dishes. Service was impeccable. We can see why this place is so highly recommended. We would travel to Cardiff JUST to eat at this restaurant again. Well done.

Delicious and cozy in the former cellar of a bank

Delicious potted pig and sirloin steak for lunch. The servers were warm and pleasant to welcome me right at lunch opening. The ambiant was luxurious and pleasant. Glad to have stumbled upon this place and recommend it to everyone.

Absolutely fabulous flavoursome food. Highly recommended.

Large shared table with friends. A delight.

Fantastic. We loved it. It was our 1 year anniversary and we were treated very well. The staff was really friendly and welcoming and the food was stunning. Loved the setting and the atmosphere too. Perfect.

The Potted Pig 🐖 hosted my recent birthday party for 16 guests, family and friends. Right from the booking for the venue, a private dining 🍽 room, they were very flexible and accommodating. The food was a delight to the palette. Nice exotic dishes 😍 😋 Awesome ambience. Kind and gracious hospitality and staff. Would highly recommend for your next private party 🥳 🎉 😜.

We are staying in Cardiff for our first wedding anniversary and we looked up where to eat. The Potted Pig stood out for us and we weren't disappointed. Really friendly staff who welcomed us warmly and the food was excellent. Really quick service too. We loved it and would highly recommend. We will definitely return next time we are in Cardiff.

Vegetarian option was lovely. I think perhaps a few more Vegetarian/vegan options to choose from would be a lovely addition

Awful !! Food had no taste way overpriced,service not very pleasant will not recommend or return in the future .Very disappointing.

Cool restaurant and very accommodating staff. We were a large party for a 60th birthday and we were able to linger over lunch. Food was tasty. I particularly enjoyed the potted pig starter.

Would recommend this place. It wasn’t easy to find however, was worth the wait. The service was excellent. The waiter gave fab recommendations. First time eating else rarebit. It was delightful and the potted pig- was fabulous. High quality. The food wasn’t cheap but it was delicious. I highly recommend.

endroit original ( ancienne salle coffre-tort au sous-sol d'une banque) et sympathique où on peut deguster de delicieux plats locaux gallois comme l'agneau (et non il n'est pas à la menthe) et se faire réciter l'alphabet gallois ;

Absolutely outstanding! Visited for lunch, had 3 starters to share.

Superb as usual, quality food expected as one of the City's nicer establishments. Great selection of Gins and knowledgeable staff.

We were told you have to vacate the table after 1.45 mins and there was no time for desert. Additionally you pay circa £30 for a main course and then circa £6 for veg to go with it. Then your drinks take ages to come and later on you're being rushed out. What a dreadfull experience. Won't be back.

One of my favourite places to eat. I recently visited Potted Pig for the second time for my partner's birthday and we had a wonderful time. The food is exquisite, we started with the potted pig itself, I opted for the pork belly for main which was extremely tender, well balanced and beautifully seasoned and my partner had the steak which she says is the best she's had. Incredible flavour and great value for money. The staff were friendly and attentive without being overeager and the cocktails we had were an excellent compliment to the meal. The atmosphere is intimate without being stifling and would suit plenty of occasions. My number one place in Cardiff to visit for a special occasion!

Great dining experience! I had the celeraric steak which has to be one of the best meals I've ever had, the pairing of flavours was impeccable. The staff were very informative and helpful.

Staff was really nice. Love the cockle laverbread sourdough. However, the main was a little op, imo.

First time there. Great staff and the food was brilliant

The food in the potted pig was delicious, however, despite the waiting staff being incredibly friendly, the service was extremely slow. From sitting down to receiving mains took around 1 hour 45 minutes. The staff apologised to us that they were overwhelmed (Friday evening) but it seems like they are just understaffed. Easily fixable and overall a superb night!

I really enjoyed lunch here. Food was really good and the lunch time deal was fantastic value for money. We had two courses: pork burger and the Welsh rarebit. Both lovely. Roasted potatoes with the dishes slightly harder but flavourful. Rarebit was divine 😍 Desserts of sticky toffee and the lemon posset were lovely! Posset was lemony but not too tart. Balance was great. We had red wine and summer spritz which were lovely. Nice way to enjoy the meal. Downside was food took long time to come almost 45 mins after we put in our order which was too long of a wait. Hence I removed a star for service. Otherwise the staff are great and the atmosphere is lovely and cozy. Recommend it!

Another great venue in Cardiff. And another fantastic meal. Great wine. Fantastic staff. We really enjoyed our night out after a disappointing match!

A fantastic venue with great food and service always a pleasure to visit

Booked a table for two on valentines day. Booking was for 9:30pm table till 11:30pm, it was raining so the walk through town was a little rough, arrived wet 15 minutes late and was told the kitchens are shut, with dinner ruined and the night turned upside down the next day I received a final blow with a £30 fine charged to my card. I called and was told to send an email so I sent one explaining the situation and that I had to budget for the occasion and so the fine was a fair sum for me to pay, but there was no response. Absolutely ridiculous to shut the kitchens on valentines evening 15 minutes after the time we was supposed to arrive and shameful to fine me £30 for being a tad late.

Went with my wife and 9 month old baby and we had a lovely time. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Couldn't fault a thing.

Restaurant in the basement. Without reservation 1h30 wait before being served, instead of 50 minutes announced. Our 6-sided AI bar table is exposed to a very unpleasant draft of icy air, (air conditioning or open door) The staff did not take our remark on this subject into account, preferring to prioritize their working conditions, they who had too hot, for the comfort of customers. £55 per person 2 bottles of wine at £35 without starter or dessert. 2 hours on site.

Marvellous. It was tricky to find coming from Hampshire however the food was out of this world and the service was 10/10. We wer advised on the best dishes to try. I have never tried Welsh rare bit. I can’t lie I thought it was a rabbit! It was amazing. So tasty. The lamb was insane. The toffee pudding was fabulous and the punch was very very tasty and just the right amount.

Food again was outstanding. Been here before and it was equally as good the second time. The staff were amazing. Very helpful particularly Jake who was our waiter. They all go out of their way to help with anything. Service brilliant. We had a disabled person in our party and the facilities were great and they really helped to accomodate him in his wherlchair.

The atmosphere and service was absolutely excellent. However other than the sour dough the food was overall very disappointing. The French onion soup was so sweet it was overpowering and most of our party didn’t finish, it may have been better off to top the whole soup off in a larger bowl just with the Welsh rarebit which was lovely. Our mains were also disappointing, my Hake was over cooked and tiny for £28. Without any form of carbohydrates with it. Our other friends had steak which was well seasoned and well cooked but they had no sauces available which ruined the dish for three of our party. Overall for that price point for a meal we had a much higher expectation.

Awesome location and atmosphere. Had the three course Sunday lunch which was delicious, filling, and reasonably priced. Great service. Wonderful experience from beginning to end.

Great food and great service. Lovely cocktails!!

We went for Sunday lunch. Very disappointed, the beef was not very tasty and a bit dry and the Yorkshire pudding was not crispy in any way. The roasted veg was unpleasant and you do not get enough gravy which may have improved the taste. The dessert was good but the service was really slow. I would not eat there again.

What a fantastic Sunday Lunch at The Potted Pig in Cardiff. Probably the best Sunday Lunch I have ever eaten. We ordered the french onion soup to start and the the Sunday lunch mixed sharer for 2. Superb food, fantastic service in a lovely setting.

The staff made the entire night. Extremely welcoming, chatty and attentive. Perfect example of why you tip service. Only lost a star as unfortunately the table was a bit near to the kitchen which naturally had a bit of working noise. As well as this, the duck dish didn't quite live up to the price. Would 100% recommend the fish and garlic potatoes though.

We visited on a night when there was some filming going on with Adam Richman. We decided to just order mains and save ourselves for dessert. I’m not sure whether it was the kerfuffle from the filming but it took a very long time for our food to arrive. The waiter having noticed this brought out a bowl of olives. We would have preferred the Crackling, Dijon and Cornichons. For mains we ordered: Roast Pork Belly, Glazed Pig Cheek, Butternut Squash Purée, Celeriac, and some long awaited Crackling. Rib-eye, Oxtail Sauces, Pommes Anna, Chimichurri. The steak was cooked medium/rare as recommended on the menu. I am really pleased that I went with the pork. It was the right choice. The three generous squares of perfectly cooked, tender pork belly came resting on three sweet circles of butternut squash. Laid on top of these was the Glazed Pig Cheek, which was dense in flavour and texture almost acting like a rich stuffing would to a roast dinner. Finally there was a small heap of celeriac and a thick strand of well crisped crackling. It was a very comforting and yummy. The ribeye steak came cut into strips and cooked as requested. It was juicy with a good balance of meat and fat. There was no requirement for steak knife that arrived with it. Restaurants should not need to provide if they are confident in the quality of their meat! There was a large slap of the Pommes Anna accompanied by a good portion of chimichurri. The rich oxtail sauce was served in it’s own little pot rather than drowning a perfectly good steak. Overall a lovely evening with decent food.

On a wet rugby day in wales we got a table here. The welcome was very warm food outstanding we loved everything we ate. We had a great server caller Courtney who was fabulous and we left having really enjoyed the restaurant and food. Will definitely like to return !!

Went last night , been really looking forward to it- disappointed, i’m not a vegetarian but i had the celaric and it was tasteless and dry asked for more sauce ( got soaked up pretty quick) husband had duck again really dry - side order of veg again tasteless no orange on the carrots and the seasonal greens ( boring ) and i love my veg , don’t take a lot to make them sing , however the service was impeccable -panocotta was good and cheeseboard was decent

We have eaten here a few years ago and it was stunning so was not expecting what we had to eat on Saturday night… We were seated and had a lovely waitress who was very friendly and the atmosphere was really nice but that is where it stopped 😞 We had olives to share which were nothing amazing - just in a small pot with cocktail sticks to pick out for £4.50. Mains is where it all went very wrong, I had duck which as you can see from picture was nice enough and my partner had the fish - it was shocking - £28 for the smallest piece of fish swimming in a bland cream sauce, it was eaten within 2 seconds and had absolutely no flavour or substance at all which for the price you would expect so much more. My partner was starving and finished it so quickly that it made it uncomfortable for me to finish my duck. We complained to our waitress and she had it taken off our bill (not her fault) but to serve the dish in the first place is just a joke and charge so much for it. We would never go back there again.

I enjoyed eating here a few years ago, but was stunned at how poor the quality and value for money was when I ate there this week. Based on my recent experience I will not be interested in eating here again. We had the pork belly which was thin, slightly tough and extremely ordinary. It was accompanied by a tiny, solitary leaf of kale and some cauliflower crumbs. The entire meal made about 5 mouthfuls and for £28 I defy anyone not to feel enormously ripped off. The service was friendly, but I cringed when one of the waitresses called my mother in law 'darling'. I think the PP needs to decide what sort of a place it is trying to be, and then do it well.

I agree with Mark J. The tiny portion of pork belly with a smattering of cauliflower was so overpriced and disappointing

Underwhelming evening I’m afraid - very limited menu ( which was the same as the “sample menu” on the website. Food was fine but sadly way overpriced for what it was - have eaten here some years ago but sadly nowhere near the same standard. Lots of nearby restaurants that can offer better food at a sensible price - sadly won’t be returning any time soon.

What a gem of a place! Wonderful staff, Courtney couldn’t have been more helpful; food was stunning so tasty and fresh; great wine options and a fabulous friendly atmosphere- where you can chat and be heard!!

The service was excellent and the taste of the food was as good as I have eaten anywhere, the pork and the duck were perfect. It was 11 years ago that I first went there but I will go back very soon.

Location Slap bang in the middle of Cardiff opposite Cardiff Castle. A perfectly short walk away from the Christmas markets where my other half and I had just been perusing. Service Well-timed, polite and sufficient. Food This is where things surprisingly let us down. While in theory, the dishes had all the right elements, they simply fell short on flavour. Firstly the 'Potted Pig' starter. A jar of spiced pulled pork alongside sweet butter, pickled carrot and sough dough toast. Sounds great, however, once the combination was made it was underwhelming in flavour. The Pork didn't wow me, but the pickled carrot added a much-needed twang and the toast was hard to chew like toast that you had forgotten in the toaster because the newspaper had just arrived and now the coffee and latest affairs seemed much more worthy of your attention. The Main Courses Pork Belly and Leg of an Unlucky Duck Nothing on these two dishes wowed me either, bland is the word that comes to mind. It was pleasant enough with soft flavours, but at no point did anything cut through. I wish I could call it well-balanced but there wasn't much to balance. Another note would be that the tender-stem broccoli was hard to cut and required all of my force (this statement carries more weight if you know the size of my forearms as a drummer). Disappointed by the food we skipped dessert and promptly left. Drinks A good selection of drinks, well polished glassware (always a good metric for a restaurant's standards). Atmosphere Set in the vaults of an old bank, character is in abundance and certainly added to the experience. Overall we were disappointed and won't be back, but consider it a line through one of the many restaurants in the UK

I was expecting more from this restaurant. We were seated and it took 20 mins to get drinks, and a full hour before our mains turned up. If you're going to have the audacity to charge 10% for service then you must provide that service. We went for Sunday lunch. It was quite bizarre that the roast platter for two consisted of 3 portions of meat and 5 potatoes. We were reduced to cutting the meat in half to divvy it up between ourselves. The portions were not generous so it reminded me of what lunch must be like at the Cratchets in A Christmas Carol, sharing it out and scraping up the crumbs. Not good. I can't even say the food was remarkable for the price. Pretty tasteless actually except for the parsnips, carrots and gravy. Enough said. I wouldn't recommend this place. They couldn't even put decent decorations up for Christmas.

Had a great time with my partner, both getting the 3 course dinner and had a great time! Potted Pig starter had plenty of delicious pork, the sourdough wasn't too tough, and there was enough butter to go with it. Tasty pickles too. Pork belly main had amazing pork, crispy roast potatoes, and (as the menu rightly calls it) proper gravy! Loved it all, crackling could've been a tad saltier. Had the Clementine Posset for dessert, would recommend if you've had a rich starter and main combo like we did. Refreshingly light and delicious. For £30 a head I couldn't have asked for more, had an amazing time! Just a note that there isn't any mobile data in the restaurant, and the WiFi was "suspended" while we were there, but might be there on another day

Excellent evening at the Potted Pig. Superb service throughout the evening, staff very friendly & knowledgeable. A great & inventive menu, certainly something for everyone. Good wine list with prices to match all pockets, & a very good cocktails choice. If okly we lived closer it would soon become a regular haunt for my wife & I!

Just wonderful. Booked at random for a girls weekend away in Cardiff and what a find. Tucked away downstairs in the old bank vaults but super cozy and perfect lighting/ambiance. The staff were incredible, even bringing tasters of the wines so we could choose. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. It wasn't cheap but certainly was great value. Highly recommend.

Great food & drinks, attentive friendly service. And don't overlook the sides! Also really really enjoyed the umeshu (plum sake), highly recommend

Four main dishes on menu and run out of one 😳😳😳😳😳

Had lunch there today, food was incredible, staff were attentive and friendly.

Great food and atmosphere, staff were really friendly

Booked for a group of 6 for my birthday, the Sunday roast was divine. I ended up opting for the sharing platter as I couldn't choose a main - they all sounded incredible. Food was excellent, great value for money. Heads up, they have an updated Sunday Roast Menu in person rather than their website. No pate but the black pudding was delicious. Service was great, everyone was lovely and friendly. However if you're booking for a group/birthday/event ask them to allocate extra time if you need it, as, as soon as we got there we were asked to give the table back within 2 hours. Not a problem, but would have been nice to not feel rushed as friends travelled from London to catch-up, and we would have stayed longer for drinks if possible. Overall a great experience. Definitely reccomend. Veggie pals spoke highly of their options too!

Helpful staff and good starters & deserts but main was a curious mix of Indian & non Indian flavours which didn't really work..

Great service, food, atmosphere
