Set in a classic Victorian townhouse, within a well hit 'six' of the county cricket ground, The Cricketers offers a great range of quality Welsh real ales from our sister brewery, Evan Evans in Llandeillo. Chilled continental lagers, a fine selection of wines and a wide selection of soft drinks. Opened in 2010, The Cricketers has become a firm favourite in the city.
With the sunniest beer garden in Cardiff or our open fire during the winter, The Cricketers offers many great reasons to visit. Our food offering is important to us. See what we offer to eat to see our seasonally changing menu and an example of our Sunday lunch offering.

Services
Our food offering is very important to us. Our way is the fresh way; the seasonal way. We believe in quality and professional cooking, that is why we use only local suppliers. Our butcher is J. T. Morgan's located in Cardiff's indoor market, the fresh fish comes from Channel Fisheries in Pontcanna Street.
Of course, we take beer seriously. As well as a wide range of continental beers and lagers, we offer the full range of cask-conditioned beers from our sister company, Even-Evans Brewery in Llandeilo. A classic golden Welsh paleale with hints of tropical fruits balanced by delicious malty finish. And our ever changing seasonal taps.

I had to change my rating as last visit was a big disappointment. In general it is an expensive pub but you know that food will be better than your average pub. Unfortunately last visit didn't feel as such. We were a big group of people so we had all sorts of food. The fish and chips were very greasy and hardly any cod in there. The pork loin was just an average piece of meat which could have been cooked better. There was no burger as they had run out of it on Friday night which you wouldnt expect. Wouldn't go again any time soon for food at least.

Can highly recommend as they always have excellent food at a reasonable price, especially the Sunday roasts! Decent drinks from the bar too. If the weather's good then they have a large and well maintained outdoor area at the back. Really enjoyable experience, I always feel comfortable here and have returned many times. A big thumbs up!

Very good pub food, and a nice rear terrace.
The pub was pretty full but we were able to stop by with no booking and get drinks, burgers and a fish and chips in under an hour before our table was needed. Later we came back for a drink and again, it was pleasant to sit out the front. Can't speak as to the range of drinks but the staff were very helpful.

Meal very disappointing, hard potatoes, cold food, no extra potatoes as offered, service not very good. My granddad had to complain and even then, nobody came over. Very little gravy, no more given. When we had one bowl of veg between 9 of us, after complaining, another bowl was brought after everyone had finished. Won't be returning any time soon. As a birthday meal for my cousin, we were all disappointed. Looked nice but very poor quality.

Clean but pricey. Limited menu that was not publicised anywhere so we struggled to find things suitable for guests with intolerances. Freezing cold in there as all doors were open. My meal was chicken schnitzel and rock hard so not great.. Staff all wearing different clothing so it was hard to spot who was staff and who were customers. Dull atmosphere. Constant queue for ladies toilet downstairs.
