The Lansdowne Pub

I just don’t know what has happened ! Even if you had asked me a year or two ago this was my favourite hidden gem. Since it seems to have lost all personality. The staff used to ooze vibrancy and individuality, over the last year , one by one each member with any visible Will to be there has left! They’ve recently had a new turn over of staff so I was holding out hope we might get that oomph back, but alas these lot are lacking even more personality, won’t be in any rush to return to what used to be a family favourite!

This was the second time we've had Sunday lunch at the Landsdowne. Unfortunately the food didn't compare favourably to the first time! We waited 45 minutes to be served. The food arrived, we had roast beef. Theyd run out of horseradish sauce and the potatoes had obviously been kept warm for hours so they were dried up and chewy. The cauliflower cheese was overcooked and dried up. The gravy wasn't of the same standard as the first visit, tasted very bland.
My guess is success had made them cut corners with the quality so they can churn out more dinners?
My sticky toffee pudding wasn't great, quite tasteless actually.
Won't be in a rush to go back.

A long way out of town but fairly close to the Cardiff City stadium. And it was worth it. Lovely friendly pub. Loads of real ales. I found some Bombardier again!! It was empty when I walked in but packed an hour later with not enough staff!! Why on earth don't they pay extra staff, organise themselves and get a bumper Boxing day pay out !! After all January won't be busy. It really isn't rocket science. We gave up queuing in the end and went to the Stadium. They really are missing a trick with 3k away fans....considering it is such a lovely unique place...

Amazing staff and great food, big fan of the quiz and the Sunday lunch in second to none. Very impressive selection of beers with 3/4 on at any one time. Top marks!

Popped in for the quiz with my dog. Good quiz, variety of questions for all ages. Well written.

The food was amazing. Had the bacon cheese burger, came with a huge portion of chips. The burger was homemade, best burger in Cardiff and only £12.

Dog friendly, good selection of drinks, friendly staff.

Famous Cardiff Pub, in the Canton Markets area, once used by the many rail and postal workers. Sympathetically redeveloped, with apartments. Independant, great staff, cask ales, carbonara style pasta bake was awesome. Friendly locals too, darts and a piano !. Worth a visit , rail and bus easy reach." Current Thing " pub of all ages.Enjoyed my visits.

Great pub. Friendly atmosphere with lovely staff. The food is great and reasonably priced for the quality. I love the burgers. I really recommend it. It has a really 'old school' pub vibe with lots of different beer mats decorating the bar. The layout is arranged so there are intimate little corners for a quiet date or large tables in the back room for a large group of friends. Would really recommend.
