With its top floor location in Cardiff and Vale College’s spanking new City Centre campus and sweeping views of the city, The Classroom isn’t your typical catering college restaurant. The swish website, ambitious prices, almost regular opening hours (Mon - Fri lunch & dinner) and pedigree of the team overseeing the young trainees all make The Classroom feel, well, like a restaurant.
I would urge people to try this place, the food is very nice, well presented with good portions. The two front of house staff are attentive, however it doesn’t seem like they really enjoy what they do, fair enough. Still good though. The setting is very nice, quiet when we went, only four tables but that was fine for us. View is cool, I like how you have to walk through the college to get to the restaurant. Good food, very good prices, i would not hesitate to come back and recommend to friends. I also think it is a great idea for the culinary school and what a good opportunity for the young chefs. We had a really nice evening there, extensive wine list too! There are nicer places in Cardiff if you’re looking for fine dining, but our whole group really enjoyed the meal we had here and would definitely come back. If you’re looking for somewhere a bit different, not too expensive, this is the place.
Fantastic 5* college restaurant. Great cocktails and wine menu. Excellent and well presented choice of starters, mains, and sweets, with liqueur cocktails. You would pay 2 of 3 times the cost for a top London restaurant. Friendly and informative staff. Will def attend again.
A truly fantastic venue showcasing excellence in fine dining in all aspects. The food was cooked to perfection with astonishing precision, each flavour and texture perfectly balanced with great skill. Service was friendly, attentive, and helpful, which added to the excellent evening spent here. With fantastic drinks on offer, and a broad panoramic view from the windows this is a.must visit venu! With the reductions in price due to the staff being in the process of being trained as part of their qualifications, this is fine dining at a more affordable level than most! Would strongly recommend.
Located in the Cardiff and vale college on the 5th floor.
Modern interior, airy.
Nice views and sunset for dinner.
Service by Eastern European waitress both robotic and curt.
Food selection limited.
Portion massive: all courses.
Tuna tartar was good but on the tasteless side-
Under salted.
The lamb was excellent-
Came pink and would like it to be. Good accompaniment.
Stick toffee massive portions and too much to finish- good dish.
Variable cocktails- negroni. The apple martini was undrinkable.
Good value for money for the size of the portions.
Good option for dinner.
Service could be a bit more
Friendly, less judgmental and less
Robotic.
Nice quiet place on top floor of Cardiff and Vale College. Good vibe, professional service, nice food and value for money. Enjoyed Christmas party there.
Really delicious food. We had the traditional Christmas Roast which was extremely good. Service is good with friendly professional staff. I'd definitely go back next time in Cardiff and definitely recommend a visit.
Absolutely lovely Saturday night meal. Food was delicious and filling, with a good variety including meat, fish and vegetarian options. Cooked to a high quality while also being relatively affordable! Service was personal and attentive. Fantastic drink options as well. Would definitely recommend!
Lunch for four today. Lovely welcome by staff. Great choice of food for our three courses. Vegan options available. Food was presented well and tasted delicious. Cian and Tom were cheerful and thoughtful as they served our food and drinks. Would recommend visiting here. Thank you for the experience. Planning to visit again
