Love the covered patio here. It&#39;s perfect for bringing my dog, they even have water bowls set out. Makes a casual lunch so much easier when he can just chill beside me.

The staff were genuinely nice. Our server was attentive, checking in regularly, and was helpful about what was out of stock. It made for a pleasant, relaxed meal. The only slight thing was a bit of a wait for our mains.

The coffee here is really good. Full-bodied, not bitter at all. The cakes are the highlight though. Had a slice of carrot cake that was perfectly moist, with just the right amount of frosting. Could taste the spices.

The team here are just so lovely. They remembered it was my birthday and brought out a little dessert with a candle - a really sweet touch that made the evening.

Lunch deal&#39;s solid. Three courses for under &pound;16. Had the cheesecake. That was the bit I&#39;ll remember.

The Sunday roast was spot on. The meat was good quality, veg cooked just right, and the Yorkshire pudding was fantastic. Cauliflower cheese was a nice extra.

Nice spot near the station, so easy to pop in. The interior is modern and feels quite cozy. Had the grilled salmon, which was pretty good, though the portion was a touch small for the price.

The breakfast rolls are a solid choice. Sausage and bacon were cooked just right, and for the price, you get a decent portion that kept me full till lunch. Good value for a quick bite.

Really appreciate the gluten-free options here. My friend has Celiac and felt safe ordering. The chicken tenders and loaded fries were both marked clearly. It&#39;s a relief to find a place that takes dietary needs seriously.

Stopped by for lunch, didn&#39;t realise it was fully halal. Good to know for friends with dietary needs. The chicken dish was tasty and the bill was pretty fair.

The staff handled our group of 20 without a hitch. Food arrived hot and together, which is a feat for a big table. They kept the waters topped up and cleared plates promptly. Made the whole evening run smoothly.

Handy for a pre-theatre drink, being right next to the Grand. Gets packed when a show&#39;s about to start, though.

Our server was so helpful! She walked us through all the different steak cuts, which was a lifesaver since my friends and I were all a bit clueless. Made picking what to share way less stressful. 😅

The fish and chips portion was huge, which was a nice surprise. The fish was fresh and cooked well, with a decent batter. It&#39;s a solid choice for a casual meal, though the chips were just okay.

Been coming here for years. The open grill in the middle is what keeps me coming back. You can see everything being cooked fresh. Portions are still generous, and the manager always remembers my usual order.

The open BBQ at the entrance is a nice touch. Good for a quick business lunch, tables are well-spaced.

The beer is good, a solid selection of ales. I&#39;ve heard the food is excellent, but I&#39;m here for the pint. It&#39;s a proper pub, nothing fancy. The Monday quiz is a decent night out if you&#39;re into that.

Been coming here for years. The view over the bay is the main draw for me, never gets old. Food&#39;s always solid, nothing fancy but you know what you&#39;re getting. Decent spot for a quiet pint.

Stumbled in for a Sunday roast. The roast beef was spot on, really tender. Felt like a proper local pub, nice and relaxed. Good portion for the price too.

Lovely little Danish bakery in Cardiff. The cafe garden out back is a real gem, so peaceful with the ivy on the walls. Perfect for a quiet coffee and a cinnamon swirl.
