Food was excellent would highly recommend recommend a visit. David RowlandsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went for sunday lunch, probably the best we've had in Cardiff for a while! Excellent and attentive service, delicious homecooked menu, big portions and very well presented! Excellent atmosphere and very clean - plenty of parking spaces and a beautidul outdoor area. Starters looked huge and delicious, we didnt order any as we knew we'd struggle on lunch if we did! I'm writing at the table I was that impressed, so haven't had a look at desserts yet but will likely be tempted! Only minor gripe if I had to list a negative, are the par fried roast potatoes and parsnips, not my fave but honestly thats just a personal preference. 9.5/10 will definitely be back! CarleneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I honestly don't know why I haven't been here before. The Thackeray is an absolute find on Newport Road. From the moment we walked in, the staff were brilliant – friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful . Paula was fantastic with the arrangements for our group, and nothing was too much trouble . The food is top-notch. I had the 10oz rump steak, and it was cooked to perfection – rare just as I asked, seasoned beautifully, and served with giant homemade chips that were like wedges . The Sunday roast is another level – huge Yorkshire puddings, proper portions, and everything tasted homemade . The fish of the day was a cod loin in a white wine and grape sauce with chargrilled baby gem – unusual but absolutely delicious . The prices are very reasonable for the quality – two courses for under £20 is a steal . The beer garden is lovely for a sunny day, and it's dog-friendly too . Whether you're after a relaxed Sunday lunch, a steak night, or just a pint in a nice atmosphere, this place is a winner. Highly recommended.
