Daffodil
Cardiff
Bar in Cardiff, United Kingdom
Why go
Daffodil is worth booking when the brief is a relaxed Cardiff city-centre gastropub with food that can carry the evening. The Welsh sourcing, broad wine-by-the-glass offer, cocktails, garden seating and private Windsor Room make it especially useful for dates, group dinners and low-stress celebrations at a $$ price point.
About Daffodil
Daffodil is a Cardiff venue with a $$ price level and a smart casual dress code. The clearest recognition on this page is its official 2026 County Pub & Bar of the Year Winner recognition, which gives the listing a concrete point of reference beyond location and general cost level. For anyone comparing Cardiff options, that recognition is the confirmed detail that most distinguishes Daffodil from a venue page built only around basics.
Beyond those confirmed details, Pearl does not have specifics on Daffodil’s menu, seating layout, booking policy, service style, drinks list, outdoor space, private rooms, or dietary accommodations. That means it is best treated as a Cardiff option to check directly before planning around any particular feature. If your visit depends on how the room is arranged, what the venue serves, whether a booking is needed, or whether a certain type of occasion will feel appropriate, the safest next step is to contact the venue rather than assume.
What is known about the food
Pearl does not have information on Daffodil’s cuisine, sourcing, named dishes, or menu format. If the meal itself is the deciding factor, confirm the current food offer with the venue before booking. This is especially important if you are choosing between venues based on a specific style of cooking, a particular dish, or how formal or casual the meal might feel, because those details are not available here.
The price level is $$, which can help with basic planning. It gives a broad sense of where Daffodil sits for budgeting, but it should not be read as a full picture of menu cost, portion style, or what a typical final spend might be. For broader planning beyond this single venue, Pearl’s full Cardiff restaurants guide and full Cardiff bars guide are useful cross-checks.
What is known about drinks
Pearl does not have details on Daffodil’s drinks program, wine list, cocktails, beer, spirits, happy hour, or events. Do not plan around a specific beverage feature unless you have confirmed it directly with the venue. If a drinks list, a particular style of bar service, or an event format is central to the visit, those are all points to verify in advance rather than infer from the venue’s recognition or price level.
What is confirmed is simpler: Daffodil is in Cardiff, carries a $$ price level, has a smart casual dress code, has official 2026 County Pub & Bar of the Year Winner recognition. Those are the dependable planning anchors on this page. They make Daffodil worth checking, but they do not replace direct confirmation of the practical details that shape a specific night out.
What to confirm before planning a visit
Pearl does not have information on private rooms, group capacity, event equipment, seating areas, or reservation difficulty at Daffodil. If you need a specific setup for a celebration, work meal, or private gathering, confirm those details before making plans. The same caution applies if accessibility of seating, the feel of the space, or the ability to accommodate a group will affect whether the venue works for your plans.
Dress smart casual. That is the confirmed dress guidance, so it is the best baseline to use when deciding what to wear. For wider trip planning, use Pearl’s Cardiff hotels guide.
