Head upstairs upon entering the market and make you way past the pet shop or Kelly's records (depending on which end you enter) and slap bang in the middle you'll find the Bull Terrier Café with its panoramic views of this glorious building, its interesting characters and its bloody pigeons. The Bull Terrier Café will do you a lovely pan-fried chicken pesto Panini, no I'm kidding they dish up grub from the greasy spoon pantheon of cooking and they won't shake you down for more than a fiver. Everything comes with chips and a chipped mug of tea. If you've hit the sauce the night before and now find yourself being dragged around town, then cut the ties and head straight here. Yeah it could be cleaner, but it's a greasy spoon in the market y'know? I love this place.

Wally's Kaffeehaus is located upstairs of Wally's Delicatessen and is their restaurant arm of the…read morebusiness. I really think it deserves its own business page separate of the actual shop although the two obviously go hand in hand. ~ Atmosphere: It's just a tiny place. The stairs leading up to the restaurant from Wally's Delicatessen only have room for one person and during busy periods you might need to squeeze past quite a few people. The cafe itself is quite tiny as well but there are plenty of tables available. However, it's not good for large groups mind. ~ Customer Service: Quite good. The food came out promptly and we were served almost immediately despite how busy the cafe was! ~ Food: I came here for lunch so I can't comment on their breakfasts. They do quite a few different varieties of open sandwiches that all sounds very appetising. Since it was around Christmas-time, they also had a seasonal turkey, cranberry, and stuffing sandwich on offer. However, my partner and I opted for a sharing platter, the Wurst & Kase Aufschnitt for £15.50 (for 2 people to share). On the platter was an assortment of continental sausages, hams, soft and hard cheese, balsamic onions, feta stuffed red peppers, olives, and wholemeal bread and cheese biscuits. It was all very lovely and I especially enjoyed those feta stuffed red peppers! Even though my partner and I are normally big eaters, the platter was more than enough for the both of us anyway. --- I'd definitely come back to Wally's not just to browse their amazing shop downstairs, but their Kaffeehaus is also amazing. I highly recommend not missing out on this one!

Some work colleagues told me about and i've been going back for special occasions ever since.

Andre will helpfully suggest how to make the most of the ingredients and give you little tasters. It really does remind me of being back in Italy everytime I go.

FINALLY managed to make it to New York Deli after living in Cardiff for years. I'm an American and…read morealways had it in the back of my mind that I needed to visit a little slice of America in Cardiff. I had the "New York". Unfortunately, when I went they ran out of hoagies so I had to get it in a bagel but it was packed to the BRIM. Although when you look at the prices you might grimace at it seeming expensive, because of the generous portions the prices are well worth it. This is more than just a simple sandwich people!!! 4 stars because the bagel itself was just alright but the fillings were delicious. However, I do have it in my mind that I have to come back and try some of their hoagies. Don't skip over this place! Overstuffing your face is what the good ol' USA is all about!

They slice ALL their meats and cheese daily, support local charities AND use local suppliers for just about everything. They even deliver if you order before 10am!

I want to write poems about this place…read more Live Lounge is the last chance saloon for the rest of Cardiff. Open until 4am, it is the stopping off place for the most hardcore patrons of every other bar in Cardiff, so chances are by about half 3, you're going to know at least three different groups of people in there. The cocktails are delicious, and made with consummate skill. One bartender in particular knows the ins-and-outs of his bar, and it shows. Every member of the barstaff in fact are cheerful, energetic and entertaining. Drinks are preposterously cheap, which is always a nice bonus (£5 for a bottle of wine quickly sends any female friends down the slippery slope of happy alcoholism). With live music performed by a selection of the top local Cardiff bands every lunchtime and evening, the club certainly earns its name. And, whilst it is always packed, and can sometimes get a little hairy in there, it is always fun and rarely an annoyance to end up there at the end of the night.

Right, here is the break down of the rating I've given Live Lounge:…read more 1* - It is open until 5 in the morning every day of the week. Now, I feel like this is how late most clubs should stay open but most of the places here shut at 2 or 3. As a result, there is always a surge towards Live Lounge when the clubs let out. 2* - And, to be honest, 3*s as well, for the prices of the drinks which are quite ridiculously cheap. They are also really good and the cocktails are delicious. The bar can get pretty busy so I wouldn't recommend having the cocktails at night but at lunchtime or in the evening, they're a must. 4* - The music caters to a lot of tastes. A standard night will see people dancing to 90s cheese, club classics, a little bit of indie and some RnB. If you're looking for more specialised music they also have a lot of live bands playing. 5* - The building in general. The dance floor is big, it's located near a cash point (and near fastfood for those who've had too much). It's near the main clubs. It's near the union. It's near the taxi rank.
