Holland House Hotel Cardiff By Sunday

You'll find this hotel restaurant tucked along Newport Road, just a stone's throw from the city centre bustle. The dining room feels like what it is – part of a modern hotel operation – but there's something refreshingly unpretentious about the whole setup that works in its favour. The menu sticks to crowd-pleasing territory with hearty British classics and international favourites that hit the spot when you want something satisfying without any fuss. It's the sort of place that does a decent Sunday roast and won't overcomplicate a good steak. While it might not be pushing any culinary boundaries, the kitchen delivers consistent, well-executed comfort food that locals have clearly warmed to over the years.
