The Chapel 1877 Restaurant And Bar

I was really lucky to walk in and manage to get a table without booking. It was pretty packed when I left. I was given a table by the kitchen area where I could see the live view of the chefs cooking our dishes. The restaurant is based in a chapel converted. Really feeling the coziness in the restaurant and romantic for sure in the evening. Food was superb. really enjoyed the scallop pork belly starter although I could see the dish was served in different presentation for other tables - guess the head chef is trying to get the best presentation of that dish. The steak was alright, really rich sauce to go well with the steak. The lamb was lovely cooked, juicy and tender medium rare 😋. Didn’t go with dessert as I was full but my overall experience here was fantastic!! Please do book this place for any celebration or romantic dinner.

A true gem restaurant in Cardiff!! Beautiful venue with huge history transferred into amazing restaurant. Made a booking with my partner to celebrate our anniversary while visiting Cardiff. Couldn’t choose better!! Welcoming staff, great service and delicious food, congrats to all team! Truly impressive experience, massive thank you to all Chapel team, looking forward to our next visit ❤️ highly recommended for a date night or even night out with friends as they have DJs/ house music in late hours so you can enjoy weekend vibes and have some fun after amazing dinner 😊 cheers!

The restaurant preserves the structure of a old Chapel, which gives it a unique atmosphere, with many cozy corners and large interior balconies. The food was excellent in its taste and presentation. The attention was outstanding from the very beginning to the end. Definitely a place to share a romantic dinner or with friends. Located in the center of Cardiff. It is absolutely a "must visit".

Went for lunch in one if the booths. Best to book ad it can be busy and only got 3 booths as well! Refit very tastefully done with most of the original features as well. Good selection on the menu and wine. Everything is done very well. You are looked after by the staff room start to finish. In the city centre at the bottom of Churchill Way. Very easy to get to and only a couple of mins walk to the St David 2 shopping centre. Well worth a visit. This was our first time for a Birthday treat. Will be going again soon.

Myself and my partner were visiting for my birthday weekend and came to this lovely restaurant for dinner while staying at the ibis hotel across the road. We had a drink in the bar downstairs before dinner. The staff were very welcoming and friendly and we were seated quickly in a private booth upstairs. The tables were all laid beautifully and it is very classy and quiet. You are able to see the kitchen from the restaurant as it is open to watch the talented chefs cook your meal. The food was incredible and the service was amazing. I will definitely visit again next time I'm in the area!

Came here to try a higher class of dining on a student budget, so booked and ordered from the bar menu. Was quite busy with people coming and going mainly for a drink (Monday night). Staff were friendly enough, although there was no drinks menu which made ordering at the bar quite awkward. Food came quickly, and tasted great, but was maybe a smaller portion than I would have liked for the money - probably due to the level of cooking in fairness... Some slight confusion (that came across as reluctance) when using a voucher code, but overall really lovely food with decent service and a ln interesting location.

I had the privilege to be invited to a exclusive menu tasting for their new autumn/winter menu which has just launch . As soon as I got their there was cocktail on arrival and the guests and myself were taken to our seats .The service and food was top quality something out of a Michelin restaurant .if you are planning to go anywhere for fine dining try this place first above any other first.🙌🏾👍🏾
