    Alright pub, drinks are well priced and good for value. Seating is comfortable and they have a decent area to play pool. The outside seating area is comfortable for smokers and people wanting fresh air. However the only frustrating thing was that they couldn't take card at the time.

    Went with my mates, we all got let in except the only black person in our group. Ridiculous. Bouncer was clearly being racist. And his excuse was worse. Apparently he can’t be racist because he’s welsh. Ruined the night. As a white man this is the first time I’ve witnessed an act of racism. And quite frankly I am appalled. What a horrible person and a terrible night.

    Lovely little place- been going for over a year now. Friday night karaoke is always a good night out and the staff are welcoming and inclusive. Highly recommend!

    Open mic has no judgement, if you haven't payed for a while take your time crack a couple jokes while you figure out what your doin

    Been here a few time was quite nice however this night I went today and got physically pushed out of the lounge by the manager (the bouncer said) because someone knocked my drink out of my hand and the manger said was I sick on the floor (whilst pushing me without me having the ability to do anything )but clearly didn’t so just pushed me out without thinking about what would happen if I fell over so very unpleasant experience don’t so not nice staff who do anything to get you out for no reason

    My daughter sang at their open mic night on Thursday. Good atmosphere, cheap drinks and friendly crowd. I'd recommend the Vulcan to others.

    Has a pool table. Has TVs. Pretty decent place. Very "studentville" though as it is located in Cathays.

    Really quick service and friendly staff, well worth a visit 👍

  • 5/5 Gareth H. 2 years ago on Google
    Have only been here a couple of times and think it has a great mix of things for customers to do. Covid restrictions were thorough. Very student orientated, which in my opinion is a good thing, as someone in their late 30's, makes me feel younger, lol! 😂 Great place to socialise :-)

  • 5/5 Phillip H. 2 years ago on Google
    It is awesome. Pinball table, cocktail games table and a nintendo 64 in the corner. Great locals and amazing staff.
