About The Plymouth Arms
The Plymouth Arms is a pub in Cardiff, with wood panelling, framed pictures and a log fire in the dining area. The room is carpeted throughout, and a bar area serves alongside pub grub. Sunday lunch is served, and table service is provided by waiting staff rather than ordering at the bar. It is walk-in, with no reservations taken. Both kids and dogs are welcome inside, and a beer garden extends the space outdoors.

Customer Review Summary
Sunday lunch draws repeat visits, with reviewers praising generous portions and a cozy dining room with a log fire, plus a beer garden enjoyed when sunny. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and welcoming. One diner, however, was disappointed by a £16.95 caesar salad described as just baby gem lettuce, cucumber and cheese, without chicken or croutons.

“We visit occasionally for Sunday lunch when my partner visits from Ireland, I have to say the food is so good! We never leave disappointed, the beer garden is great when the sun is out, service is always good, everyone is happy to help, I will always recommend 💯”

“What a lovely pub, food was fantastic, we had starters and a main meal, I honestly couldn’t fit in a dessert, atmosphere was fab, our waitress Julie was a star, friendly and bubbly, nothing too much trouble, definitely going to go back, highly recommend.”

“I ordered a ceaser salad after waiting at the bar - which had only one person manning it on a Friday evening. For my food I wanted a ceaser salad as a main and as well as a side for my dinner. I missed the bit that said to add chicken to the ceaser salad. But I did this because £16.95 seemed about right for a chicken ceaser salad. Well, I was wrong. It turned up without chicken (which I get I didnt add on). HOWEVER, what annoyed me more was they said a ceaser salad was some baby gem lettuce with cucumber, little bit of cheese and dressing. For almost £17!! You’d think they’d put some croutons or anchovies on it to spruce it up. I was expected to pay £17 for something that cost £1 to make. Disappointing.”

“Lovely little place! It looks great inside and it's kid and dog friendly which I love. The food was really tasty and not super expensive, the service provided by Italia and Izzy was perfect. Friendly staff and a great location. I will definitely be back again.”
