welcome to the yard

YARD Bar & Kitchen is situated in the heart of the Old Brewery Quarter on St Mary St, and is part of the original Brains Brewery.

  "The city centre’s most stylish bar serves well-priced, filling, super-fresh fare all day long" -

With an atmosphere that changes throughout the day, we are open early for breakfast and freshly ground coffees. Our food menu is then available all day and we are the ideal place for a quick lunch, bite to eat with friends or even more formal dining. A great meeting place on any day of the week, we become a more upbeat venue on Friday and Saturday evenings and the atmosphere moves up a notch or two.

We are also ideal for meetings, with two rooms holding 20, and 40 people. Our unique 'Racking Room' is always available for private hire. Overlooking Cardiff's most vibrant street this relaxed space is ideal for office buffets, Christmas and Birthday parties. A fantastic range of modern and classic food is served all day.
