Nice pub shame about the manners of the staff. A friend asked to swap his beer as they poured a premium lager into a normal glass so the lager went flat straight away. He was questioned on this although it was obvious why he wanted to swap it. Female member of staff didn’t have a please or thank you all the time we were there. Pretty much a basic need for front of house should surely be good manners!

Formerly the 3 Rivers. A Stonegate pub which is more of a Sports Bar as if Cardiff needed any more. Real ale, decent wine and average food. Gets busy on weekends.Tends to be poorly cleaned by the evening. Quite likely bits of food food on the floor or uncleared tables. Toilets also likely to be uncleaned. Could so easily be 4 or 5 stars with more attention to detail.

Like a upmarket Wetherspoons. Watch out for the meals with drinks deals, they only include soft drinks and you have to pay extra for alcoholic. Food good value for money, staff friendly and helpful.

We are here at lunchtime on a Sunday. Same as any other "wetherspooney" place. Good value. Fed well. Sticky menus & floor which you come to spect in these places. We had a drink each with our food - three adult dishes and drinks £30 and we will be fed all day tbh. No much to note. Staff was friendly and it wasn't busy so it suited us fine. We brought our own colouring in/activity booklet and everyone was happy!

My nephew and I came for food before heading down to Cardiff to watch the football. Ffion, Keeley and all the staff were very attentive throughout the vist, ensuring the food was good and that neither of us had any allergies prior to us ordering. Even though it was a busy shift nothing was too much trouble for them. Highly recommended place to visit for food and drinks.

Very loud on a Saturday night, called in for drinks and food before theatre. Food selection was great and we had the 5 starter share meals, scampi was a bit mushy texture, although the taste was ok. No katsu chips, so had hunters chips which were fine. Potatoes skins are fab. No bombay sapphire, but Gordon's OK. No cola on pump as they were faulty, but poured from large bottles which was fine to.

Perhaps you may not expect much from a sporty type Yates but this place is excellent. We’ve been a few times recently and it’s really impressive. It has a lovely atmosphere, not too busy and you can always get a seat. The food is delicious and tremendous value, if there is anything slightly wrong the staff will deal with it superbly. Lovely, friendly staff. All of this at great value too.

5 mins from our hotel (Indigo - very nice and so central), across the road from the theatre was this warm, cosy bar. Lots of people in there so obviously a popular spot. We got a nice table by the window - ordered burgers/drinks at the bar. They have lots of big screens for sport so we watched the football - but the sound was down so it didn’t disturb anyone. Tasty burgers and a nice Guiness and House red. Very smiley and friendly staff. A comfortable place to eat and just a stroll from our hotel

I dropped into Yates by accident after leaving another establishment due to the staff being rude there. When I entered Yates I was created by 2 really nice members of staff. They were polite and friendly and took my breakfast order. After sitting down Ffion brought over my condiments and cutlery and I had my breakfast about 10 minutes later, it was delicious. Thanks to Ffion and Keeley for a very pleasant experience, I would highly recommend a visit.

The yates is decent if its a starting point and not a full night plan. Its more of a Wetherspoons than a party place. DJ is practically on the dance floor because they haven't located him a big enough area. The pints are shocking if you look at the attached image of mine. I thought the bar maid was joking when she gave it to me but she was dead sure that's how its meant to be! After a few words with another bar worker the issue was resolved with a pint that didn't have a 5inch head on top. Dance floor is small, can probably fit 10 people at one time. The bouncers haven't got a clue how to secure or protect the premises, hardly check ID's, not very quick to action and the one tall bouncer looks about 13 in the body of lurch from the Addams family, and i don't think its safe for someone so young and thin to be put in dangerous situations where he could be having to escort drunken fully grown men out of the premises. And that Lurch comment wasn't a dig, its just he's tall and actually works at a local funeral home in the weekdays but i cant imagine that it can be paying to well if he's forced to take weekend shifts as a makeshift bouncer at The Yates.

Not overly busy in there this Saturday. Enjoyed some whisky because choice of proper ales was poor, indeed choice of whiskies was poor too. However a drink, albeit a small glass of coke (because they didn't have an ale i liked) which should have been a large for a deal that should have included a pint wasn't the best really. The burger & fries were pretty good.
