Eating Out in Cardiff- any ideas?


Recommended Posts

So- for some mad reason, I have managed to talk myself into taking the family for a day out, to get away from the builders, and Cardff has been nominated as our destination for the day.(That day being tomorrow!!)

When I went last year to Cardiff, I ate at Woods Brasserie, and unlike the lovely couple on the table next to me who seemed to be having the meal of the century, I wasn't exactly blown away- could have been in a Cafe Rouge or similar flavour.

So can anyone recommend somewhere else to eat? We are driving from the Cotswolds, so can make a diversion on the way for a good meal. (Lets face it hubbie and I are mainly going to keep daughter happy, so would like to get a decent meal out of it!!! :raz: )

I met a couple of Cardiff residents last year who raved about Le Gallois.

mmm.....rave might be going it a bit but each to his own. Try the Old Post Office in St Fagans (4 miles outside Cardiff). It has a new chef who's revamped the menu and tweaked the prices to a much more reasonable level. Hubby and I had dinner there 2 weeks ago (mains are £11 - £15) and very nice it was too!

Le Gallois is good (I've posted about this previously) but it is on the pricey side for the level of cooking.
