The best restaurants serving Brasserie food in Cathays Cardiff South Wales

Restaurant was extremely busy when we visited but that does not explain poor service . Arrived on time but we were kept waiting for table when eventually sat at table no explanation of how order system worked but again no problem . But biggest problem we ordered 2 bottles of wine while on 2nd bottle 3rd bottle arrived which we had not ordered and 2nd bottle half full taken away when i pointed this out waiter picked up another empty bottle waving it around saying its empty . i eventually got him to bring back half full bottle . We did order 3rd bottle but when bill came a much more expensive bottle had been charged .Pity as the food was excellent .

The reviews didn’t endear me to this place, but it had been a long day travelling and I wanted something easy and convenient. My only complaint was that it took an age to get seated as the hotel was jumping and the restaurant wasn’t staffed accordingly. However, once I was seated the service was efficient (which I needed) and friendly, and the food was pretty darn good. I got a rump steak which was so succulent and I rarely say that about rump. Basic menu but it is pub grub so set your expectations at this and you’ll be fine
