We went here on a Saturday afternoon whilst out in Cardiff. For a group of 6 sport loving lads it was great to have a choice of the rugby, football or cricket on three large TVs right in front of you. We had a few pints and whilst it was not overly cheap (£3.95 for a pint of Magners) with... More

good pub unfortunately spoiled by the manager who likes to be centre of attraction and shows of to his friends. His party piece is getting his lap dog bouncers to beat up drunk customers from out of town. The man is a coward More

We queued for a while to get in and then went to the bar and bought a drink at about 12.15. We then moved from the bar toward the dance floor, we were located at the... More

went to the bar and had an ok time (drinks ok, decent music) until when I was trying to communicate to my friends that I was outside waiting for them (it was closing time) proceeded to force me out and hit me while doing so.
