Pubs in Cardiff

Duke of Wellington

42 The Hayes, Cardiff CF10 1AJ

Elegant pub offering a wide range of Brain's beers, 2 rotating real ciders, and an extensive food menu.

Golden Cross

282 Hayes Bridge Road, Cardiff CF10 1GH

Built in 1903, this is the most spectacularly decorated pub in Wales and is famous for its ceramics by Craven Dunnill of Jackfield, Shropshire. It contains two original tiled panels, one depicting Cardiff Castle and the other Cardiff's old Town Hall. Unfortunately, for such a fine pub, the beer choice nowadays is rather limited. Part of Cardiff's gay scene.

Yard Bar & Kitchen

42-43 St Mary Street, Cardiff CF10 1AD

When Brains used to brew in St Mary Street, the brewery tap was called the Albert, with the brewery itself just behind. In 1999, the brewery moved to its present location and, on the former site, the "Brewery Quarter" was created. Centrepiece of the development is a rebuilt and expanded Albert now called the "Yard Bar and Kitchen". The pub extends over two floors and is industrial in style, a reminder of the site's industrial heritage.

1 Clifton Street, Cardiff CF24 1PW

Cross Inn

783 Newport Road, Cardiff CF3 4AJ

Sports bar Sky TV. Trips to matches arranged. Darts. Jan 2014 - Cask bitter taken out

Flora

136 Cathays Terrace, Cardiff CF24 4HY

Long-established locals' pub just outside the city centre recently refurbished to cater for a wider audience. The interior is stylish, largely with varnished floorboards, second hand wooden furniture and artworks on walls. Around the corner to the left as one enters is a more cosy area suggesting a domestic parlour. Apart from the Brains beers one guest real ale from another major brewery is usually available. Prices seem steep for the area.
