Bragdy a Chegin

Cardiff


Right by SWALEC Stadium, this outpost of the UK-wide Brewhouse and Kitchen chain is in pole position for thirsty cricket-lovers. There's an on-site microbrewery, a conservatory and beer garden, and even an 'academy' where you can learn the essentials of brewing and beer-tasting. The kitchen half of the equation (mains £11 to £15) serves barbecue food alongside pub classics.
