    Loveliest little pub in Cardiff, always such a friendly atmosphere and somebody to chat to while you enjoy one of the huge variety of ales and ciders on offer. Even though my husband and I moved away from Cardiff we still regularly make a trip back to visit because its such a nice place. I tell everyone to go and sample the wares and they do takeaway bottles and cans too so what's not to love!

    A lovely micro pub that is home to a wide variety of craft beers, ciders and ales! Follow their Fb page for updates for pub quizzes/ what’s on cask and more

    Great micro pub. Excellent beer, excellent cider (so I've been told) and fantastic banter. Make sure you buy Phil a pint, because he's a legend. If you want a great pub near the 'diff, this is the place to be!

    Absolutely brilliant! A wide range of non mainstream beers fro the UK. A small beer garden out the front . Very interesting cosy modern interior. Table service was really good from the husband and wife landlord and lady. I had a great evening on Saturday 4 September '21. Ty. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice place for a drink!

    Well where do I begin... The Cathays Beer House is such a wonderful and supportive venue who's owners have really gone above and beyond to create a real community atmosphere. They've been especially supportive to the local community during the recent pandemic by offering a range of takeout services and have maintained a safe and welcoming environment since reopening their doors for customers. If you're visiting the area a visit to this little gem is a must!

    Great pub, lovely staff, and always a warm welcome. They've a fantastic range of beer and cider, and are still considerate of everyone's safety. You will have to wear a mask, but that's sensible isn't it? Thanks guys. Top job!!

    Amazing choice of beers. There's always something new and different on tap and they've recently added taps so there's even more options. Love the friendly owner and how quirky this place is. Definitely recommend!

    If you appreciate a good pint, a relaxed and friendly vibe then this is the place for you! The on tap drinks change every few days I hear, so great for variety too. Staff are lovely

    We had a terrible service, as we arrived the attitude from the lady who was either the owner or manager was very hostile. We asked if they had any tables and the lady was very dismissive and wanted to know why we were here. She was wearing a rather large protective face shield and I struggled to see her face and communicate. I tried to explain that pubs and hospitality weren't required to wear masks anymore. She was very unhelpful. My friend was visiting for the weekend and had a terrible impression of the place. We got the feeling it was for people who knew each other and as a very small venue a rather clique crowd. It was very unfriendly and unwelcoming for visitors and a real lack of good customer service. I love my real ales but definitely won't be going here again. There are many great real pubs a short walk away with a really friendly welcome from the bar. Such as The heath, The crwys, the woodville and the flora and the pen wig I highly recommend these and they have many good real ales. . We went on to the have nice time and a fine drink in those.
