  “One of the best pubs in Cardiff! Owner Billal is a genuinely kind and helpful person, and the owners are such a lovely couple. I have wonderful memories of spending time with them a few years ago in Cardiff Bay. Their warm hospitality and friendly atmosphere made those moments truly special. It’s always nice to remember such lovely people and a great place. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a welcoming pub in Cardiff! Really miss you guys. Love u millions”

  “The owners are absolutely great people, very nice and friendly. The staff is amazing too, always on point. Definitely recommend their pies, my favourite is lamb and mint. According to an Irish feller they serve the best Guiness. I only had my first Guiness recently from that pub, so can’t confirm that, but it is very good and has become my favourite drink since then. There is quiz nights on Thursday and karaoke on Friday, these is also darts and some board games available. Try it out!”

  “Came here to have a Pint and see Rugby. The pub was crowded by French, who came to be in the stadium for their match against Wales the other day. We all watched Scotland-England. Great Rugby vibes. Pub itself is a typical Welsh Pub. Did not have any food, but the Guinness was perfect. Good atmosphere overall.”

  “Best pub in the Bay . Since the new management we’ve become regulars again. It’s now so welcoming & friendly. You can even bring the dog! Thank you to Tracy & the team for great service & the best pint of Guinness! Two satisfied customers here 👍”

  “What a gem of a pub located in Cardiff Bay. A traditional old school pub with pictures of the docks and Cardiff from yester years. Great selection of tasty beers. Friendly staff that assisted in drink selections as well as telling us about the venue and its recently celebrated 160th year history. If you are looking for a traditional pub experience with great value, defo worth a visit.”

  “Lovely traditional style pub playing a great play list. We visited during a downpour afternoon midweek, so it was quiet but great vibe. Has screens up subtly places for those interested in the sports but doesn't have a sports bar vibe. Really liked it and great prices too.”

  “Dropped in before Gig in Portland House (Vault) good atmosphere friendly staff & customers. Not posh just normal pub with a mix of characters & a DJ playing old school classic singalong. Inexpensive proper boozer.”
