The place to be in Cardiff. Casual, various festivals, good (pub) food, variety of beers. Large tables to accomodate more than 6 ppl. Reasonable prices. Students can get 10% off with Chapter card.
Great venue, with great cinema, theatre and gallery. A great place to see a show, have a meeting or just sit and enjoy the atmosphere.Upvoted Aug 29
They have a number of guest ales on tap, and are more than happy to give you a taster, variety is the spice of life but Ringwood will always be there for you.
CeriAugust 21, 2014Great place to work, good spaces, soup is always tasty. Always worth picking up a guide because there are loads of things going on all the time.- GiuliaDecember 10, 2012My fav place to drink and eat in Cardiff. Great cider and super sweet potatoes. Movies, art exib, free wifi and also a little vegetable garden.
Finlay JonesMarch 11, 2013Lovely place, alwys busy. There's a cinema and a gallery and there is always something going on there and the food is good too. So all in all a great place to go.
Great place to hang out and meet mates, grab a coffee, use the free WiFi and catch a film or band.
Lisa HaywardDecember 27, 2016Great bar area and more interesting environment to go see a movie than your regular Odeon!
Alexander PalmerMarch 23, 2015Great little cinema whether its for blockbusters or art house. Constantly changing exhibitions as well
Great atmosphere, beer and program of events....but avoid Sunday lunch, it's god awful with anaemic roast potatoes, dry meat and Yorkshire puddings so soggy they make Sean Bean cry.
A AJune 25, 2014The goat cheese salad is lovely. The cheese is creamy and mild. Ask for extra dressing
Cardiffian bibliophiles make sure you catch Cardiff Read (www.cardiffread.co.uk). An informal book club meeting monthly at Chapter. Email Jess & Steve for more info: info@cardiffread.co.uk
It's an art gallery, bar, cafe, restaurant, cinema and theatre all in one. Manages to do all of these things surprisingly well.
Mar GonzalezNovember 30, 2014Great Arts Center and Civic center with independent movies, expositions and theatre plays.
Great value sandwiches and baguettes. Sweet potato fries are great too
The sandwiches for £3 is great because not only do you get sandwiches, you get side salad and crisps. Bargain.
- Great food, awesome drink! try and make the Wednesday food market, will set you up for the week.
- HerSheLifeOctober 15, 2010Lovely place to hang out, work on your laptop, drink coffee, see a film, eat their great food and have a drink. Multi-functional class :)
- HerSheLifeDecember 17, 2011Runs a great lesbian/bi film club called "Lavender Screen" - find the group on Facebook for the latest listings :) Read more
Try the eggs benedict on organic laverbread cake for breakfast- Helen WarburtonJune 3, 2010A programme of awesome films being shown in the gallery for the duration of Peter Liversidge's exhibition-free entry with screenings 3 times a day incl 6pm.woo!
Surj BamiMarch 1, 2013Nice place, changed over the years. Crowd hasn't lost any of its pretentiousness though. Dahling!
Felicity LorraineAugust 26, 2013Enjoyable Sunday evening. Movie and then a drink whilst listening to jazz. Bliss
Ask for a mug instead of a cup and your hot beverage will stay hot for about 10 minutes longer.
Working here often as @gdnCardiff - come and say hi if you have a story!- Barrie J Davies loves chapter for it's mix of culture, good food and drink
Quite shocked to see this place only has 3 out of 5 on the hygiene rating things.
Since you're here, don't forget the nearest cashpoint is opposite the barber shop
Freelancing in chapter is the business, especially now they've got the heating on.- Card purchases at the caffi have to be over £1.50 or so i've been informed.

"A very "close to home" theatre, which accommodates students and locals alike. Although a small theatre, it manages to have good productions. Nice to pop in when open just to experience the "coziness""
