Places to Eat in Cardiff

Cardiff's dining scene runs from Cardiff Bay's waterside restaurants to the independent kitchens and coffee spots tucked around Canton, Roath and the city centre arcades. Turkish, Afghan and American menus sit alongside Welsh café culture, so it's worth deciding whether you fancy a proper sit-down meal or something quicker like a sandwich bar or coffee stop before picking an area.

Away from the centre, villages such as Creigiau keep a more traditional pub feel, with places like The Creigiau Inn offering a slower pace than the city's bustling food streets. Sports bars, casual grills and neighbourhood kitchens fill the gaps in between, making this a city where you can eat well whatever the occasion or budget.
