We visited here today because the pub was mentioned in a Western Mail list of dog friendly pubs.
We, and Jess the Jack Russell were made very welcome. We had pints of Brains Best, delicious! Also fish and chips for two which was beautifully cooked and presented.
The lady behind the bar is a real asset to this pub and she has very very good customer service skills.
We and Jess will be back!

Fab night on Saturday! Well run bar, best chips in town and great atmosphere all round. Thank you to all the staff!!
Excellent and reasonably priced Sunday lunch.highly recommend
nice pub good beer and food
The service is spectacular, the staff are helpful & polite. After eating their, the food is great value and has a homely feel. The place has been re-vamped & has left the "Old Black Lion" as a shadow of its former self!
Rejuvenated with a fantastic atmosphere this pub offers fine cask ales & commercial products at a great price. Love it, love it, love it!

Very nice friendly lady behind the bar! Decent local ales and tasty, reasonably priced grazing plates (we had cauliflower wings, loaded fries & macaroni cheese, 3 for £10). Not a super characterful pub but a pleasant enough traditional boozer.
I go to the Black Lion for drinks quite often with my boyfriend as it's local to me and have been for food with my family a couple of times too and it's lovely. The staff are friendly and it's a nice atmosphere. Nice drinks as well.
Probably the best place I've ever been too. No other pub can top this experience. I've never been so happy, drunk and accepted in my life. Atmosphere is welcoming but lacking air conditioning. But I can score any lower as this place is amazing and if I died I would want to be brought here as a form or purgatory. Would recommend, also the food is nice. Good job

Absolutely smashing pub, lovely food. Lovely staff, and the best pint of brains about. A must visit!
Had the wonderful experience of meeting Jade the barmaid. Full of happiness and made my day, couldn't ask for a better experience. Would recommend to anyone. Any problems, ask for Jade!
Above all that, the landlady, Jen runs a wonderful pub with fantastic staff. Pubs are all about good people and this pub is full of them!
I go to The Black Lion on a regular basis and have to say I feel extremely welcome. Jen, and 'The Team' have welcomed me into their family and its amazing. I would recommend The Black Lion to anyone in the area, indeed I often am accompanied by two of my friends who also feel that its a great place.
Jen really cares for the customers that come into the pub and her attitude towards us proves this.
Great place, the service was amazing and friendly. The food took time but was more than worth it, portions were good as well and the prices are very reasonable. Cosy and charming ambience.
Their beer glaze sauce is to die for!
One of the most welcoming venues in Llandaff. Fun staff, decent drinks and excellent food. Highly recommend to everyone. Top pub in my eyes. The new menu is a stoke of genius. With the food and how friendly the staff are, this venue is a pure winner and a must visit for anyone in the area.
Staff were very friendly! Food was very tasty with good portion sizes but some dishes were not available, and the wait was a bit long. Great value for what you got!

Made a booking for this pub on wednesday for Friday to have a few drinks and a meal with my friends. The food was lovely and the staff were great! Would highly recommend this pub to anyone looking to have a quick but lovely meal along with a lovely old school atmosphere. The hanging flower baskets outside make it feel like summer time! 5 stars!
Visited for steak last night and I cannot rate it highly enough. We have visited on a few occasions for drinks but decided to try dinner and it was all cooked to perfection. Staff are always great, we are always made to feel welcome! X
Visited this pub on Friday for a meal with my family and i can proudly say that this is by far one of the best pub meals I've had in a very long time. The staff were extremely welcoming and so helpful and the meal was amazing. I would highly recommend the burgers and the presentation was beautiful. I will certainly be coming back to this lovely little pub!
