The Flora — Restaurant in Wales

Went for Sunday roast - and arrived not long after noon. First off the veggie roast no longer comes with Yorkshire pudding (shock horror! - but I was able to add one for and extra £1. I was impressed when my plate of food first arrived. It looked like a truly edible feast. However, the nut roast was a bit sloppy and had red peppers in it - which was not to my taste - but which others may enjoy. Unfortunately the roast potatoes ( the absolute heart of a Sunday roast!) were hard and tasted mostly of oil. It must be difficult to make roast potatoes en masse and keep them tasting fresh because it seems that restaurants have a difficult time getting them right.

Note to Other Publicans 'You could learn a lot from The Flora'

I could write on and on about this place - but in short it is absolutely brilliant, it ticks every box. Having worked in the hospitality industry for some years and owning a couple of my own bars/restaurants, it's really refreshing to come somewhere like this where it has heart and love for what it does.

The Lovely staff, great vibe, drinks food value for money. It really is bang on. I'm not often in Cardiff but when I am this place is my immediate go to. I'm not sure if it's just Sundays but kids under 10 eat for free.

Roasts are between £7.50 and £9 and the portions are great AND the food is really very tasty. Mid week seasonal food and drinks menu is also brilliant. Truly almost too good to be true, but it is true..
