Quick info
About Brewhouse
Brewhouse is a live music bar on St Mary St in Cardiff, with bands playing seven days a week. The Brewdoir is a balcony level where visitors can watch the bands from above, and the upper level has a ledge for setting drinks down. Screens show football, so match days sit alongside the music. A happy hour applies to drinks, and bottomless brunch is also on offer. The bar serves as a Christmas party venue too, with a buffet at its Christmas Showcase. Dogs are welcome.

Customer Review Summary
Live music is the draw reviewers raise most, described as brilliant and great, with the happy hour on drinks mentioned alongside it. Several like the upper section, where the band is in view and a small ledge keeps a beer from being knocked by passers-by. Close behind is the staff: reviewers single out a friendly, attentive and speedy bartender and a server who treated their group well. One praises the bottomless brunch for a server who recommended the next drink and never let glasses run empty, and calls it such good value. Food also earns credit, including a delicious buffet at a Christmas Showcase, which that reviewer recommends for a Christmas party, and a delicious breakfast. Another reviewer finds the food great value and the venue good for watching footie, with music on but not loud enough to drown conversation. One diner whose friend has allergies notes that staff took their time explaining the menu to her.
