Bar 44 Cardiff in Cardiff

Great tapas bar with very friendly and helpful staff. The atmosphere is relaxing and there is a great choice of high quality food and drinks. A must visit.

Overpriced for what you get. I had been walking past this place a lot and wanted to go in for a while. Went there today for lunch and wasn't satisfied like I should've been. We ordered the iberico croquetas, which were more filled with a creamy substance, no actual pork pieces in them, just slight flavour of pork that only my partner could taste you get 4. Had tomate bread which was ok, just bread with tomato on it, you get 1 slice for £3. Had patatas bravas, which i would say was the best thing we had, which is sad because its just potato so not hard to do, they dont cover the potato in sauce, they lay the potato on top of a smear of sauce on the plate which was pretty cheap, about £5 they were. There was a seasonal tapa we had, tartare tuna and dill with some sauce on a cracker, but they literally just give you 1 cracker, had to cut it in half to share with my partner, for £3.25, that was a joke really, tapas are for sharing. Had the chicken in sherry with hazelnut, chicken was nicely cooked but quite a bland flavour, even though it was covered in sauce. Then last and definitely worst value for money were the chilli prawns, they ask you to pay £8.80 for this, when it arrived, there were 3, normal sized prawns, not even king, in the oil with chillis on it, when we ate it, there wasn't a hint of spice at all, no flavour, and the prawn was grainy and had a sandy crunch in your teeth like it hadn't been washed properly, was very disappointed with that. Got our money back on that one thankfully. Service was also relatively slow, no offer on second drinks and left empty plates on our table until the time we picked up the bill. Wouldn't recommend.

No booking, but the front of house managed to fit us in. Food was exceptional - Hake, patatas bravas were superb. Service was very attentive and friendly. Highly recommended.

The tapas is amazing, great dishes every time I go

If you are in Cardiff and fancy tapas then this place is a must. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and amazing food. Can't recommend highly enough.

Recommended this place by a friend. Easy online table booking. Great customer service. Ordered a good variety of food. Enjoyed every dish served. Will definitely recommend to friends and family,will also be returning..

Wonderful Tapas restaurant. The staff were friendly and engaging and knew their menu well. The food was excellent, and although not all traditional tapas items certainly were worth the price.On top of this, the drinks selection was incredible. All cocktails were very well made and the range of beers, some of which are very uncommon in the UK, were the final touches to the experience. The venue is on the upper end of pricing, but in my view is worth every penny. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Cardiff.

Best place for tapas in Cardiff. Cocktails are fantastic, atmosphere really nice and staff bend over backwards to help you. Highly recommended!!

A lovely bar/restaurant in Cardiff - we especially recommend the carrots and croquette. Staff are super friendly. Its a drinking venue but it’s still nice and not too loud (not your local pub!).Perfect for a Friday dinner or weekday lunch (they do an even cheaper tapas set for weekdays).

Thoroughly enjoyed the tapas! We were quite a large group and probably ordered most things on the menu, can't fault any of the dishes. Pleasantly surprised by the bread. Really good atmosphere too.
