I visited The Village Inn, and it was fantastic! The seasonal decorations immediately set a cozy, welcoming atmosphere perfect for the fall. The ambiance is mature yet comfortable, making it an ideal spot for a relaxed day or evening.

Our server, Ellie, was exceptional. She was attentive, friendly, and ensured everything was just right. Her service definitely enhanced the overall pleasant vibe. The food was delicious and well-prepared, with a good variety on the menu. Everything from the starters to the desserts was spot-on.

I highly recommend this pub for anyone looking for a laid-back, classy pub experience. I’ll definitely be back!

Staff were lovely, however the food was overcooked (black, chewy burger pattys), the wrong burger was made, and it was all on the cool side (chips were barely over room temperature).
It took 40 mins to arrive, by which point we were hungry and needed to get on with our trip, so didn't have time to wait for any replacement meals. Generally disappointing.

Food was served already cold , long wait, 8 minutes waiting for 2 slice of toast, one proper burned and other okay ( eatable) coffe served in dirty cup with a big chip and hygiene standards very low on this place.

It is bank holiday weekend. All the staff are running about working hard. All have a smile and are friendly. Can not recommend them enough. We will definitely be back. The food was amazing.
Thank you so much we are on holiday for a family get together but will be back. 5 stars all round. The manager liv was absolutely brilliant. Managing her staff and working just as hard as everyone else. We asked for the managers name for the review.

The Village Inn Cardiff, I couldnt recommend it enough! The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, always going above and beyond. The food is fantastic, especially the sirloin steak which i prefer not on a sizzler out of preference, which is always cooked to perfection. The breakfast there is simply unreal, especially the hashbrown bites. Its the perfect way to start your day. Also the events hosted at the Village Inn are always amazing, bringing a lively and enjoyable atmosphere which is perfect for adult and kids. The Saturday night discos with karaoke are always a blast, and the live band Zion Road, that often visits brings a great vibe to the pub. If your looking for great food or a friendly atmosphere for drinks, I 100% recommend the Village Inn its defiantly worth it.

Found this pub whilst away for a few days. Food was fine, quite enjoyable and fairly priced. Not much of a warm welcome from the bar staff though but later learnt there were only two on the shift....probably explained the lack of a smile. Restaurant was dark and needed a bit more light but was okay..ish.....our table, table 2, was a bit wobbly and could do with a bit of attention. Overall, I think 3 stars is a fair score.

Bloody awful service!
Waited ages to get food to table and when it arrived the SPECIFIC items we requested not to be in the food (and were reassured that Pyle not be), were indeed there!

Obviously they don’t care about their customers requests or dietary requirements!

Much better cafes and restaurants just a 5-minutes drive down the road!
American style sports bar. Limited menu with nearly everything being deep fried and with chips. I had a fish finger wrap as not keen on fried food. It was ok but expensive. Low ceilings and 1/3 full and it was very noisy. Sky football playing with volume on several TV's. I don't recommend it unless for a younger clientele.

Awful.
Not everyone wants the football blasted so loud your booked party can't even socialise with eachother until it was over!
Food was served disjointed and cold/ tepid, all except for the one child, whose meal came late and scolding hot! No selection of drinks for said toddler, except a really awful
shade of orange squash! And couldn't have the first choice of ice cream on the child's menu either!!!
Food was poor value for the money! 5 prawns a best in the protein bowl!
Poor service, awful roudy atmosphere, and poor quality! Not that clean either!
Very dissatisfied.. and won't be returning... Shame as we thought we may of found a venue for a middle point family get together! 😔

The chef should be ashamed of these burgers... only a third of the size of the bun they are served in. The cheek of the price of the meal too... they only get 2 stars because the chips were delicious. Shame shame shame serving burgers looking that sad though 😞
Terrible service, seen by all the staff waiting at the entrance but then ignored for over 5 mins. Entered and spoke to the manager who said he was busy serving customers. Finally offered a table and asked if we were eating, then told food service had stopped!? Restaurant was not busy but service was slow, staff gave the attitude of not wanting to be there - just so poor around.
Warm welcome, food was good and served quickly.

Used to be a regular place of mine to go, but haven't been here in a while and I probably won't go back.
The bar and restaurant are now combined and have sky TV practically all through the area. Now call me old fashioned but when I go out to relax, I don't want to sit watching sports on uncomfortable seats, with food that tastes as though they rushed cooking it.
My drink was served with ice in a separate glass, as the barman didn't ask if I wanted it and my friends drink wasn't fizzy (I think they needed to change the carbon dioxide).
So go here if you enjoy sport. Don't go here if you want a lovely quiet meal.
We went on Thursday and it being half term it was bit crowded. We had to book the table in advance.

When we were given a table, the person who took us to the table warned us that the food will take atleast an hour. It took an hour for our food to come out. However, everything looked tasty. We ordered the peri peri stack which was really nice and tasty. The chicken at places was a bit tough. The dessert were tasty too.

They have good tasty choices, looked like the katsu curry was quite popular.
