The best restaurants serving British food in Riverside Cardiff South Wales

Wonderful coffee to takeaway 7 walk through the park, in the autumn sunshine. I ordered a decaf flat white to takeaway. It was delicious, and I can be fussy about a flat white! Lovely velvety texture and just the right mix of coffee to milk.

The Hot Pantry is the perfect place for fresh comfort food. Their Dragon Pies and Custard slices are to die for! Good prices compared to a lot of bakeries too.

Excellent place to spend a couple of hours having my birthday lunch. Excellent food. Will be back. Thank you team.

A magnificent lunch. Spectacular starters and puddings with a very good roast lamb main. Servers were friendly interactive and prompt. Good atmosphere. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Came here for some food on a Saturday afternoon, Weather was lovely so we sat outside, had a lovely table in the sun. Chairs could do with some cushions and we were all rather uncomfortable after a while. It seemed to take rather a long time for someone to come and bring menus and take our drink order however it was very busy. Food was good but pricey, cheese board at £12 had 3 very small slithers of cheese one of which wasn’t particularly nice…. We ordered chicken, lamb and the delicious bread with marmite butter which we love. We decided to have another drink but went to sit inside after eating and we were quite annoyed that despite having one round of drinks with our food and reordering the same again at the bar, my sister was charged £16 for her wine instead of the £10 one she’d had at the table. Did t realise the mistake until we came to pay. We left a bit annoyed and its not a mistake we will repeat.

There was a lady locked in the accessible toilets (she was okay, albeit.. drugged up.) had to climb an obscene amount of stairs with my walking stick (MS) to the other toilets while staff flapped. Staff were unaware that the lady had been in there since before we had arrived (90 mins earlier), but they were familiar with her. Staff were not remotely apologetic for the inconvenience and struggle to get upstairs. It just put a dampener on the experience. Food was very nice though.

Your afternoon tea was bought for us as a gift. We booked a table one month ago for 3pm on the 6th February 2020. Having made a special journey into Cardiff, we arrived at 2.45pm only to be told that there was no evidence of our booking on your system. After much deliberation with the chef, the lady on reception was able to squeeze us in. After our table was prepared, we were shown to a dark and cold dining room. We were the only diners. The lady was very helpful and we were able to choose sandwiches from a small selection. They were freshly prepared albeit only three fingers each. The tea was fine, but the small scones were not home-made (disappointingly) and the cream was squirty and not as advertised in one of your previous review replies as being clotted cream. We asked about this and were told that clotted is not an option. So we made do with butter. The three small (and we mean small) pieces of cake were dry and bore no resemblance to those advertised on your website. We left most of them. All in all, the worst afternoon tea experience that we have ever encountered. Atmosphere was poor and would have preferred sitting in the warm lounge area.

My local pub and they have recently started doing really good BBQ food, prepared by Dave, late of the Smokehouse (@SMOKEYDAVE24) who prepares everything from scratch on site. I had the Pork Belly Ribs and have to say that they were absolutely amazing, tender and packed with flavour. Going to have Brisket next, which my friend said was the best he's had. Great pub, with lovely staff, friendly welcome and now top BBQ to complement their lovely Sunday lunches and Summer Pizza out of the wood-fired oven in the beer garden. Give it a try!

Breakfast was OK except the fried bread it looked like it was just dipped in the oil and put on the grill a minute not nice hart attack 🙃

Amazing food, loads of things to try.

This is nothing more than an over priced cafe. The general ambiance is very poor with each of the seating areas being worn out. Other similar venues in the area might well be worth exploring

Great pub/hotel.In a great location for castle too.Would recommend.

Un muy buen desayuno y muy buen menú de tapas muy conveniente cuando un bocado temprano por la noche También disfrutamos de una noche de gala en noviembre Excelente

Friendly local chop shop with great portions! Been going for as long as I can remember a Canton instatution. So highly recommend
