GoOutIn Cardiff Recommends

Bull Terrier Cafe

This place may send the greasy-spoon-o-meter clanging off the scale, but it's a Cardiff institution. Sandwiched between an evangelical Christian bookshop and a pet shop, on the balcony of Cardiff Central Market, the Bull Terrier is the venue to tuck into some no-frills fare. The star of the sho Read more about Bull Terrier Cafe

Sandwiched In The City

'Holy haberdashery, Batman, my stomach's rumbling!' 'To the bat cave-esque dominions arcade Robin.' SITC is not so much sandwiched into the Dominions Arcade as alone and desolate. Its empty surroundings mean that the sun-starved staff scurry around efficiently but also creat Read more about Sandwiched In The City

Lorenzas

Shadowy photographs of Naples's backstreets adorn the walls of this minimalist Italian, providing a welcome distraction from the constant drone of traffic outside. The pizza and pasta dishes are excellent but it's the seafood that stands out: the mussels and tiger prawns are huge in size a Read more about Lorenzas

China China

Take GoOutIn's advice and dine alone at this all–you–can–eat. Sneaky elasticated waistbands, more than five trips to load your plate and hoisin sauce–splattered crotches are secrets best kept between you and your chopsticks. Set aside a whole afternoon and work your way th... Read more about China China

A Shot in the Dark

If this place were a person GoOutIn would marry them and have their babies. Regardless of gender, we'd find a way. Homemade brownies, a huge range of tantalising tapas and house wine that doesn't taste like they've picked it up from the bargain bin at the Spar are just some of the delic...

The Greenhouse Vegetarian and Seafood Café

More shed than gourmet restaurant: the food has a deliciously comforting homemade feel but the limited menu really lets the veggie side down. Despite the small choice of meals, this café is a surprising find in student town Cathays, where Miss Millies is the most popular eatery. Carnivores need...

Chillies Indian Restaurant

Relatively new and instantly popular, pile 'em in and pile it high curry house. Excellent meal offers, especially on Sunday evenings.... Read more about Chillies Indian Restaurant

Harry Ramsden's

With a clientele of strictly over sixty–fives, getting your plaice to take away is probably your best bet. Mushy peas and bread and butter both make an appearance on the distinctly average menu. Almost always empty, except of course when the old biddies waiting for Codot fancy an early evening... Read more about Harry Ramsden's

Buffs

One of Cardiff's old classics serving up hearty mains in the restaurant, lighter dishes in the wine bar and spot–on Sunday lunches to a sophisticated crowd. Definitely somewhere to take visiting relatives for an impressive lunch or dinner.... Read more about Buffs

Madame Fromage

Lady cheese seems like our perfect match: our chat up lines are moldier than stilton and leave a tang in the mouth like only a delicate emmental can. However, our Madame isn't for churning. More precisely she is a beautiful cheese mongers, a deli and café of the highest quality. Squeezed ... Read more about Madame Fromage
