As part of the Harvester chain, I've found these restaurants to all be similar across the UK. You don't come here for 5-star dining. You come here for consistent food at a good value. I arrived at my nearby hotel late in the evening and struggled to find anything other than fast food that was still open. I was thrilled to find out they were still open. When I arrived, I was quickly taken to my table. Because I've been to these before, I was able to quickly decide what I wanted. I got a sirloin steak and a Pepsi Max. I'm from the US, so I'm accustomed to all restaurants including free refills of soft drinks. I drink a lot, so I miss that when I travel to other countries. The first time I visited a Harvester, that was actually my primary reason: I saw on their web site that they offered free refills! My meal was prompt (despite there being a couple of larger groups there) and reasonable quality. As I said originally, I went to Harvester because I knew what I could expect and they completely met my expectations. The chips were fresh and crisp and my steak was properly prepared at medium rare. This one is in a great location if you are near Cardiff Castle and I think it would be even better on a nice day, sitting outside watching all the people passing. Unfortunately, I was there late on a rainy night. I would definitely go back again if I was in Cardiff. read more
