Have only been into Cardiff once and it was a little blurry, remember there being a main street with lots of bars.
No plans made, so will bow down to local knowledge, as long as it doesn"t involve taxi rides or walking any distances and we can be pretty central.. happy to go with the flow and banter.. we need a starting location though x
Paulie_D:
As I recall (and I"m equally blurry), Westgate street is the main drag, so perhaps the Queens Vaults might be the best option.
As a starting point, I would suggest The Wharf (directions from Travelodge).
A cab into town would be pretty cheap and then we"re in the thick of it...but I"m equally open to suggestions.
I"ll need to eat beforehand anyway.

Well I am going to get into Cardiff at about 3pm on that day. I would suggest heading into the Bay until people get there, there are a few nice pubs over there. The Packet is a nice traditional pub and Terra Nova is nice to sit and overlook the Bay if it is a nice day, you can get food here too. The Wharf Bar is alright for drinking outside as well. Great place to be on a sunny afternoon.
Then get a cheap taxi into town. The main drag in Cardiff is St Mary"s Street really, we can do a pretty good pub crawl. Some good pubs that basically run from the train station to the other end of Cardiff include:-
The Great Western
The Prince of Wales (Wetherspoons) - Good for food again if people need it
The Cottage
The Goat Major (Traditional Pub, good on football days)
The Irish Bar (Good Guniness)
For Wetherspoons fans you also have The Gatekeeper and Central Bar on the trail and The Queens Vaults as Paulie suggested. There is O"Neils as well and The Owain Glyndwr.
Then you have Lloyds bar and Varsity for when things start to get silly and the shots are folowing.

Cheers Rodders, sounds like a plan, by the time we"re getting there I suggest you"re all fed and raring to go as we"ll probably grab a burger on the way at a service station.
Just need an opening bar on the main strip so we can get straight on it :)
I"m now booked into the Premier Inn due to me presuming Travelodge had been booked.. and it hadnt. Happy days :) x
