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.

    As soon as we entered the ivy We were greeted by a warm smile By staff and immediately felt at home and like part of the family. It was our 1st visit to the ivy and certainly won't be the last. The staff and customer service we received was 1st class , and they did everything they could to make sure that everything was right for us. The food came out quite quickly even though the restaurant was busy with a great atmosphere. The meal sizes were generous The food was tasty and delicious. And definitely worth the price we paid

    Undoubtedly a beautiful restaurant. We arrived early for our booking, we were given seats at the bar to have a drink whilst we waited, great service here. It went downhill when we got to the table. Disengaged waiter, in the past Ivy staff have added to the experience, not this time. Starters were delicious, mains both disappointing, greasy Milanese chicken, and rubbery red mullet in the fish stew. Not the expected standard at all. In fairness the stew was taken off the bill without us asking. I noticed the lady on the next table left her chicken too. Unfortunately I would not go back to this restaurant.

    We spent New Year’s Eve at the Ivy and had a great time. Although a busy evening for the restaurant, the staff were excellent in looking after us and the other customers around us. The food was delicious and the overall experience made for a memorable celebration, with the live music adding to the atmosphere. A great evening, with special thanks to the staff
