We were looking for a good spot to get a drink before the Wales football match against Finland in Cardiff and found the perfect spot in the Prince of Wales. The environment was buzzing with supporters kitted out in red, they had a good selection of drinks on tap and the architecture/layout of the place is really cool! Would definitely come again!
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!
Enjoyed some nibbles and quite a few cocktails. Took a while to get food and longer fir the drinks but it was rammed and the food was good and the cocktails were lush. Definitely good value.
Die Weatherspoons sind eine Restaurant-Pub-Kette, zumeist in historischen Gebäuden, weshalb das Ambiente wahrlich gut ist 😍
Das Essen ist ok, man sollte aber keine kulinarischen Wunder erwarten.
Wichtig: Es gibt keine Bedienung am Tisch, sondern man muss entweder am Tresen oder via hauseigener App bestellen und bezahlen.

The Weatherspoons is a restaurant-pub chain, mostly in historic buildings, so the ambience is really good 😍
The food is ok, but you shouldn't expect culinary miracles.
Important: There is no table service, you have to order and pay either at the counter or via the in-house app.
Great weatherspoons pub in the heart of Cardiff city center. Fantastic building that used to be a theater. Friendly staff and good service.
Drinks - great price in comparison to other prices. We tried food here for the first time and surprisingly was very good.
Tables could be cleared and cleaned more often, and wiped properly many were just sticky. 😫
In overall this is very nice pub, big lively nice architecture of old theatre. And great central location 👍🏻
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.
Visited on a Sunday lunch time. Firstly the building itself is stunning. Very large old theatre. The place was fairly quiet but was a sunny day. Easily found a table and ordered via the app. Food came out quickly as did the drinks. Did not visit the toilets. Ok as weatherspoons go. Place was tidy and clean. Great central location.
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.
Excellent food and service. It's always over crowded on weekends. You get money's worth here. Lot of beer and cocktail choices. Originally it was an opera Theatre. Now converted in to a pub. Neet and clean pub.
This is a grand and beautiful Wetherspoon. As majestic and royal as the name.
This is a great place to grab some food. The biggest issue is that it is very busy, so it is not quick. The service is good and the food was lovely. We had a lovely full English breakfast around 11 a.m., and it was pretty busy then, around 25 to 30 min wait. A great place to go for very reasonably price food and drinks, as long as you really are not looking to have a good chat with anyone as it is so busy that it makes a lot of noise, but it is a great atmosphere.
Three of us had the small fish and chips. It came in a reasonable time and was hot and crisp, perfectly okay. One plate had a slice of lemon with the fish, but the other two did not. I asked if we could have two more slices for the other meals but they never came.
I was disappointed that they did not serve any zero or low alcohol apple cider except for some sweet berry versions. Most of the traditional cider makers produce a very reasonable zero or low alcohol version now, most clubs and pubs have one, I would have thought they should stock it.
