Advantages: Great food, friendly, clean Disadvantages: Small car park, hard to get to
...Food - Excellent! The Plymouth Arms is reknowned for its food in particular its steak and ale pie. There is a large variety of food available. Starters cost between £1.50 and £3 and can include, garlic mushrooms in butter, cheese and meat melt, soup and salad. Main meals are also varied they cost between £4.50 and £10 and are well worth it. They can include the afore mentioned steak and ale pie, lemon chicken, sunday roast and vegeatarian options ... ...between £1.50 and £5. The selection of desserts isnt as good as the selection of other foods. When I was there the choice was between profiteroles, icecream (various flavours) and fruit pie.
The size of the portions you are given is very large and most people tend to skip starters and dessert and just have the main meal. The prices as you can see are average and there tends to be something for every price range.
Entertainment - There is no rowdy ...

Advantages: Lovely old pub in beautiful surroundings Disadvantages: Vile staff, appalling service and average food
...at the castle opposite the Plymouth Arms and we took our guests there for some pre-wedding drinks. Out of courtesy we contacted the pub twice in the run up to the big day to let them know to expect a bus load of people arrive at lunchtime on a Saturday. Unfortunately for us we were absolutely appalled at the treatment our guests received at the hands of the megalomaniac 'manager' and his surly, disdainful and obnoxious bar staff. Service was painfully ... ...mortified at the way our guests were treated. Those who ate said the food was lukewarm and poor quality - much like the welcome we received. Sadly it seems the pub relies on the fact they have a captive audience of people visiting the museum and castle opposite but they absolutely do not deserve to be in business treating people the way they currently do. My advice - go next door to the fabulous Old Post Office. My husband and I, as well as our 40 ...

Advantages: Good food, good location Disadvantages: Need more bar staff
The Plymouth Arms is located in St. Fagans, an lovely little country village just on the outskirts of Cardiff. It's quite a large pub with a great beer garden for the summer. It concentrates mainly on the food trade and consequently it's not really a great place to go for just a drink, unless it's the summer and you're sitting outside. However, if you fancy a meal, and don't want to go to a restaurant this is the best place in Cardiff. It serves ... ...average bar food prices, but it's worth it.
The Hunters Chicken is fantastic and it's only about £8. In short, it's got great atmosphere, it's frequented by normal people, and serves great food. The only thing wrong with it is there's usually not enough staff behind the bar. ...
