  “Nice friendly public house situated across from Cardiff Castle. Ten minutes walk from the Cardiff Central train station. Decent beers,little seating area outside the front for people watching. Lot's of television screens to watch sports. Prices not bad considering the Castle is 20 yards away and a huge tourist attraction.”

  “3.15pm on a Tuesday - Liked the interior very much. Medium sized bar area. Well 'appointed' bar lady. Great pint of pitch-fork, but, £5.50pt. Enjoyed the low key music.”

  “Called in for a couple of pints and to enquire about them showing the formula 1 for the next day which they said they would. The atmosphere was great, their choice of music was excellent, they serve an excellent pint at a good price. I have yet to eat here so I can't comment on the food however everything else I experienced was excellent”

  “The food was good with good price. The chips is strange shape but crispy outside and moist inside.”

  “Wonderful pub located in the heart of Cardiff right across the road from the iconic Cardiff Castle. This pub has changed over the year as many of the pubs have but it still maintains that warm and welcoming ambience. Engaging staff, hearty food and a well kept selection of beer. A must visit on any visit to Cardiff”

  “Fantastic spot, just across the street from the Cardiff castle. Excellent selection of beverages and friendly staff. A group of us went there and, liking the place so much, we stayed for hours.”

  “It was lovely going to the Bluebell (formerly the Goat Major). The place hasn't changed at all. All of the beautiful old features have been maintained. Great to see! Although we didn't eat here today. They had a very good menu. The chap at the bar was helpful and friendly. I overheard him offer to open the ladies toilets on ground level for some ladies, because the toilets there were upstairs! So, good access from the street but not easy for the conveniences there was a good Size outside seating area for smoking and enjoying company on a warmer day. We will be back, and maybe sample some food next time. 😋”

  “I had the Welsh Faggots and a pint of cider. The food was not bad, but the taste could have been better. The ambient and the staff deserve five star, but the food maybe not”

  “Recommended by locals, it is one of the oldest pubs in the heart of Cardiff and is a solid, classic pub with everything you could want: a good selection of drinks ranging from beer and cider to wine and cocktails, classic pub food with vegetarian options (veggie burgers), which unfortunately closes relatively early, good music and sports broadcasts in a pleasant, classically dark interior with friendly service. Everything is reasonably priced. Highly recommended!”

  “Lovely classic pub at the top of the High Street a stones throw from Cardiff Castle. Their menu is small with typical pub fare, only crisps for us on this visit but will definitely be back to sample their fish and chips. The drinks were good, the seating was cozy and the staff were friendly. We will definitely return”
