Seasonal dishes, well-kept pints and a bar that knows what it’s doing, from lazy lunches to lively evenings.
Refreshing summer serves, made for match days, garden drinks and long evenings with friends.
Sundays are all about proper roasts, crisp potatoes, rich gravy and that second glass of red you absolutely deserve.
Start the day the right way with a relaxed breakfast before heading out to explore Cardiff, or simply easing into the morning with good coffee and something comforting from the kitchen.
When the garden’s buzzing, the air-stream fires up, serving pizzas straight from the oven. Your choice if you want to share (or not).
Food and drink at Pontcanna Inn is all about relaxed, feel-good dining done properly. Think seasonal menus, comforting pub classics, excellent drinks and a welcoming atmosphere that works just as well for casual catch-ups as it does for big weekend plans. From garden pizzas to Sunday roasts worth rearranging your plans for, it’s all best enjoyed at your own pace.
