The Ivy Cardiff is part of The Ivy Collection, which remains true to the values of the original Ivy restaurant, famous for its celebrity clientele and superior dining experience. Interiors feature sumptuous Art-Deco detail, marble floors and striking burnt orange banquettes.

As well as the main dining area, there’s a show-stopping first-floor bar, set underneath a stunning blossom tree.

Breakfast at The Ivy is a relaxed yet sophisticated experience. Start off with a choice of refreshing juices or coolers while you choose from a range of Breakfast options including The Ivy Full English Breakfast or one of the light and healthy plates. The Breakfast menu also includes a range of teas and coffees.

Brunch is a more decadent affair with starters such as the Roasted Scallops in a creamed spinach, truffle and parmesan emulsion followed by the Lamb and Leek Sausages in a red wine sauce as a main course. For an extra indulgent experience, why not enjoy a cocktail from a Watermelon & Strawberry Bellini to a Salted Caramel Espresso Martini or a glass of Champagne with your Brunch?

The Ivy Sunday Roast is served with all the trimmings. Indulge in rosemary roasted potatoes, green beans with almonds, carrot and swede mash and a Yorkshire pudding finished with a red wine gravy.

The Ivy Cardiff is nestled in the city centre, located in St David's Shopping Centre, just a short walk from the city’s historic castle and Cardiff Market. It is just a short walk from Cardiff Central station.

    Not just dining but a true dining experience. From the way you're greeted to the service at the table, from the main room decor to the very plush toilets, everything is an experience. The Ivy Cardiff is probably one of the slightly more expensive places to eat in the city, but, for a special occasion, it is honestly worth trying. Eating there on a Saturday, it was the main menu only, and to be fair, the drinks are what will probably push your bill up. They do have a very nice looking 2-course set menu for certain days which could be a winner in terms of value, if you're being a bit more cost conscious, I'll happily return to test that out. Fantastic food, table water without even asking (something I always ask for), service was brilliant, and you weren't rushed at all, which added to the experience. We booked in advance, so didn't wait for a table. There may be a wait if you just turn up. Oh, and if it's your birthday (as it was for me!) make sure to mention it as they might give you a little treat (see pictures).

    As a solo diner I thought I might feel a bit weird, but the staff were very friendly and the food was delicious. Beautiful decor as you would expect. Will definitely return.

    Had a delicious meal here with friends. Attentive service although occasionally waiting to get waiters eye , when it wasn’t busy really. I found the venue a little echoey. So may be a little difficult for any hearing impaired.The environment was lovely. Clean and fresh. Would visit again
