  “I spoke to Dan, he served me after other two other people which is fair enough it was busy, but after the third person I politely interrupted and said I was before them. Instead of being polite and honest he decided to say “it's f..ing busy I can’t help it.” And then after I ordered he charged me normal price and I I said “sorry can I be a pain even more and ask for student” he said “no I’m not f..ing doing it anymore it’s too busy” so after I asked for student charge and he said no i said I don’t want the drinks anymore after he poured 1 of 2 i then said I know “(our mutual friend)” and he said “I’ll put it through as student” so I come back and he charged me the right price but then says “I can’t do anything when it’s this f..ing busy”. I wasn’t disrespectful or anything but I felt disrespected but his wording and attitude.”

  “We went for the first time to have a Sunday roast and I tried few in Cardiff! This one is the best I tried, omg the quality of the beef and the gratin is absolutely delicious. Close to home and couldn’t believe that we never tried before. Lovely staff and atmosphere and garden in summer . Love it”

  “Without doubt the Sunday lunch is the very best around. Cooked with great skill & invention. Dine here once every six weeks or so and the standard has never dropped. It is very reasonably priced and served by friendly staff, what’s not to like, excellent, would highly recommend..”

  “Came to the flora for a Sunday lunch. Food was really good and is worth a try however £60 for two roasts and two pints of cider is quite steep especially for a student based pub. The tables were very compact trying to squeeze as many people in as possible to the point you could hardly get your legs under the table. Service was okay. Did check food was okay, but no service with a smile here at all. Could do with some work. The younger girl was really nice I must say though.”

  “Really happy this pub is local to me. Tried the Sunday roast for the first time today and it was phenomenal! This is the type of venue which lifts a whole area. I hope we attract more venues of this calibre to Cathays/Whitchurch Rd. Can't wait to go back. Nice little beer garden out back too”

  “I whence came across this fine establishment and doth my arrival I met Sebastian James. This kind soul made me feel welcome and the service was exceptional, he’s rather handsome! I thought throughout the night he was flirting with me but I was wrong, he swings the other way. Any fine male should snap him up right away! 5 out of 5, and I’m not just talking about the service 😉😜”

  “Wow. I say, wow indeed. I oft find myself wandering past the Flora most days of the week, whereupon I partake in a fine, cold ale to steady the spirit. My hearty commendations to the bar staff — young Seb in particular, who is wont to bend my ear at great length regarding the misfortunes of his injured back. Still, I do pity the lad, bless him. A charming young fellow, to be sure. I could not, in all good conscience, name a better establishment in Cathays. The fare is excellent, the drink superior, and the whole place is most admirably run.”

  “Everytime I go to the Flora it is amazing, especially with the presence of Mr young Seb. Good Sir Seb is a wonder of the tavern, for though he be shaped like a well-fed duke, he moveth through the pub with the grace of a dancing deer. Seb pumps life into the pub and pumps life into me. Keep up the good work seb.”
