About Duke Of Wellington

Right in the middle of Cardiff, this is an older city-centre pub that's kept its character — magic mirrors that flip into TVs for the rugby, a beer garden that fills up the moment the sun's out, and a team that's warm with everyone who walks in. Food comes out fast and generous, which matters when someone small has hit their limit; the chicken tikka and the Sunday plates get particular praise, and prices are fair for the portions. There's a kids' menu and high chairs. The honest snag: tables are few and far between, so at weekends or around an international at the Principality it'll be standing room and loud — go early, or midweek afternoon when it's calm. Ordering runs through an app, though the bar staff will happily walk you through it.
