This my first time visiting the The Prince of Wales Wetherspoons. The pub is inside a beautiful grand old theatre from 1878. The historic building has original stucco decorations and a dining are opposite the stage. The location of the pub is ideal. Situated under 2min from the Railway station and right next to the city center. There’s a lively atmosphere at the pub, especially around 4-5pm when office workers met up for a pint. Staff at the Prince of Wales were very friendly and Professional. I ordered the chicken bites, coleslaw with spicy rice and a Leffe beer for drink. I enjoyed the meal and the pint of Leffe was just a delight. The meal and alcoholic drink combination is a really good deal. I’ll definitely visit the Prince of Wales when I’m back in Cardiff. Definitely recommend guests visiting this pub.

Wetherspoons #115 visited. A large branch located in the centre of Cardiff, in the old Prince of Wales Theatre. The pub is based on two levels, with seating areas, bars and toilets located on each. A rather impressive branch in terms of architecture. Ordered a Vegetarian Breakfast and a pint of Glamorgan 1927 IPA. Unfortunately not the best pub I've been to in terms of beer range, with only three guest beers on. I've been to far smaller branches that have been able to offer up five/six guest beers on a regular basis. For a pub of this size, scale, and prestige, a better range could easily be offered. The drink arrived in good time, a few minutes after ordering. Food arriving around 40 minutes later (12 minutes quoted on App wait times), so very slow. Eventually I had to chase up on my order, as it took so long to arrive. Also observing my food to be sat under the hotplate by the dumbwaiters for over TEN minutes, before brought over. I've only rated one for service due to this. When the food finally arrived, was as expected - lukewarm and dried out. A nice branch to visit, however the service could be Improved somewhat.

Overall we had a lovely lunch at Wetherspoons. I love that you can order to the table and pay via the app, which means avoiding standing in queues for ages! We were served quickly despite it being very busy and our food arrived in about 20 minutes after I placed the order. Our server was really kind and the food was presented well! It was quite loud which was the only downside but as there are over 200 tables, it is to be expected for the venue. It can get quite busy on a weekend so keep that in mind! The food was delicious and a good price too. I love how you can customise your meal as well with additional options or the ability to remove aspects, all via the app. Definitely worth a visit for a decent meal on a budget with the option to splash out on a few extras too!

4 out of 10 The branch is located in a historical building, big spaces and two floors, in the upper floor there is a kind of theatre that gives the place a picturesque vibe. However, we were disappointed for quality of food. We know that wetherspoon are know for low prices and therefore we were not expecting Michelin quality food but we have been in other wetherspoons with same prices and better quality. The Benedict eggs were boiled not poached, and the beans on the vegan breakfast were very low quality and plain. I personally loved the vegan sausage (but that’s easy because I like quorn) and the hash browns were also good. In overall, only thing I’d recommend is to come here to see the building and go for brunch to a different place.

Massive restaurant/bar spread out over 2 floors located in a historic building that once was a theater. The theater boxes are still present and one view upstairs has you looking at what looks like theater seating although is just decoration. There is plenty of options on the menu and all well priced as well as inexpensive drinks. I can see why it is so popular any day of the week. Currently there is construction taking place inside the building although only visible from the outside of the restaurant.
