Expensive drinks and no Happy Hour like most of the other local cocktail bars. Drinks were well made and delicious though. Not much of an ambiance as it was quite early (and empty) when we went there. The barmen were lovely though.

R. M.

This place was incredible, the staff were really friendly and super helpful. We mentioned it being a hen do and they decorated our table which was such a lovely touch. The security were really nice and friendly - ps thank you for helping my friend down the stairs! Music and ambiance was great and the DJ played a good variety.

M. K.

Amazing experience at Kapu ❤ staff were lovely and super attentive, Elle organised my table for my 24th bday with friends and it was so lovely we had a whole bit to ourselves and she couldn't do enough. Made for a lovely celebration thank you guys x x x

L. D.

Good place. Came here the other week and came across some trouble, but the doormen were bloody great, and the bar staff were more than helpful. Drinks in here ain't too bad, and prices are always quite competitive around the area, so it's not too expensive for a round of drinks.nice choice of music here also if you're into a random selection of modern music.

S. W.

Absolutely fabulous place to go! Stunning, flavourful & powerful cocktails prepared by Gino. A very welcoming atmosphere with brilliant music. Will definitely visit again!!

T. L.

Great cocktails, a shame its just an upstairs would be amazing if it had 2 floors but fab atmosphere

N. D.

Love this place. Cocktails are beautiful.

K. C.

Excellent bar with friendly Staff, super drinks, music and atmosphere. Salsa at it's best. 1st time in the City, which left a super lasting memory. Same time next year to celebrate our anniversary

C. B.

Lovely bar but not enough space to make drinks for the amount of people that are there. There is a separate queue for non-Cocktail orders to improve the speed of serving however when I went last they were also making cocktails in this queue. Took me about twenty minutes to order a pint.

A. P.

Yes this was the second time we booked a table for the rugby has 20 of us ex veterans attend an we had a fabulous time all the staff were brilliant including door staff an excellent facilities including the gentlemen "s room an refreshments so thank you once again

M. D.

Fantastic service, atmosphere and drinks. Staff went out of their way to congratulate us when my party made a booking to celebrate finishing exams. The music was great and the actual place is decorated beautifully. The only drawback was that happy hour was not on as advertised

M. A.

Great bar in great location: tiki. Great drinks and great staff: tiki. Friendly Tiki bar great for groups: ticki.

S. R.

Superb location if you're attending an event at the Principality Stadium. Great buzzing venue. Book a VIP area if there's a group of you

R. E.

We went for the rugby and it was OK nothing more nothing less .. drinks were a bit expensive.

A. P.

Seems to cater to hen & stag dos, & groups who've come down from the valleys. Pros - staff were friendly. Happy hour cocktail offers were a good deal. The drinks were well made & tasted lovely. Music is is mainstream, so great if you're looking for a cheesy dance. Staff collect empties regularly. Cons - it smells vile, as though every man in there decided to pass wind in unison. Every girl knows the toilet hover. I didn't even want my gaze to touch the toilet. The dance floor is the route to the loos, so a lot of shoving and pushing fun to be had when you're trying to enjoy a dance. Not sure it's accessible for disabled people. It's upstairs. Didn't see an obvious lift, but there may be.

S. M.

Lovely place to go for the rugby - been a few times now and always really enjoyed. I must say however that I was disappointed that the sound wasn't on for the Scotland v England game today. Just because Wales aren't playing, it doesn't mean there aren't other rugby fans in the bar. It would he nice to hear both games before the music is on full blast for the rest of the night, especially during the Six Nations and as we had booked specifically for the rugby. Thanks

S. F.

Nice cocktail and mocktail bar

C. T.

Recommended as 5* as an easy place to get cocktails on a Saturday evening that wasn't a crush! The decor is laid-back Hawaiian, which isn't my personal taste, but it was a friendly, relaxed kind of place with nice cocktails and very friendly staff who brought the cocktails to the table so I didn't have to wait around for ages at the bar after buying the drinks. Discovered by chance, but I will be going back. I asked for a daiquiri and they made me a lovely raspberry daiquiri that wasn't a even on the menu. Happy days :-)

M. N.

Friday night around 9 o'clock and not many people in there. Some cocktails like the raspberry ripple taste like they nothing but milk in them.. but others are good. We stayed for 2 rounds but had to move on to a livelier place. Good for couples

R. B.

We went a bit early so it was really quiet, however the place would be good when busy, the decor was cool and they had 241 cocktails for £7 and they were really nice and tropical. Me and my friends had a good laugh in this bar, would definitely be better when busy

d. c.

Booked an area here for a 21st birthday and the night we had was amazing!! Was so so cheap to book and what you had for it was amazing. The venue was all decorated when we arrived and Prosecco waiting on the table. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much for them! Massive thank you to the organiser Elle who bent over backwards for us! Such an amazing atmosphere I cannot wait to arrange the next night there. Mixture of all ages and every single person enjoyed! Thanks so much all

A. K.

It was great went for my sisters hen

E.

There's a great atmosphere here, with classes you can take part in. The selection of cocktails is brilliant and the staff are very friendly. Lovely for a drink in an evening with friends, with the 2for1 cocktails making it a very affordable option.

K. K.

We had a fabulous time at this bar Believe a salsa social or a group was there showing off their dancing skills. It was a truly magical night. Enjoyed the drinks, decor, music and service was quick.

O. L.

Bar staff are great here. Fast, polite and fun. Great vibe here on a match day. My only quibble is that they could do with a bigger screen! Other than that, a top sports bar .

J. B.

Good bar was a busy rugby game day but was able to get served quickly. Drinks are good the espresso martini was fantastic and made properly. Standard Cardiff town centre cocktail bar prices.

K. M.

Went here for friends leaving do. Lovely environment and good vibe. Cocktails looked lovely (I didnt drink), staff friendly. As expected when busy, getting served can be a challenge.

L. B.

We had an amazing time for a hen party on Saturday! We booked a VIP area and couldn’t believe the amazing g value and how nicely the room decor was. Staff were really helpful too! Definitely recommend 😊🎉🥂 Kelsey Barcenilla

R. W.

I love this place. The music is great. Staff work well and smile. Be nice a it's returned with a smile. Cocktail are two for one until around 9. All types of music for all ages.

Hi Gino, I am sorry for the one-star review it was entirely accidental. I was trying how to write a review and by mistake posted this negative review. Nonetheless, let me try and correct my error - A great themed bar with an excellent pint of Estrella, waiting for me even before I have taken my coat off - I hope to retake my position at the bar on Wednesday with a pint in hand, waiting for the tango to start. I hope you can forgive me for my lack of expertise with this application. Simon.

R. R.

Very friendly staff. Made our visit amazing for my mates Birthday preparing a Booth with Birthday Balloons and everything. Good prices for the full bottles of House Spirits.

D. M.

Visited Friday 12th December had really enjoyed a good night out with work friends. The service is fast, friendly and is affordable. The cocktails are made properly and taste delicious. The club is very classy and I recommend anyone to visit when looking for a cocktail bar in Cardiff or a great night out.

r. e.

Great atmosphere, lovely staff, top night out

E. D.

First time here and had loads of fun. Must have walked past this place loads of times and didn't even know it was there as you need to go up steps off the main street to get there. Good atmosphere, friendly bar staff and great music for dancing.

E. R.

Verry good drinks. Looks good!

A. H.

Kapu great environment and staff. We had an attempted steal from our table while we were dancing and the staff delt with it quickly and efficiently, removing the perpetrator from the premises. Great for 🕺 dancing and cocktails.

H. M.

Best place in Cardiff, always good music, great environment, delicious drinks and they always have some interesting events going on, plus the staff is super friendly! Excellent service :)

G. L.

Massive thanks to the staff and especially Elle for making out night amazing. From sorting out a table for us for a mates stag and all the drinks and waiting hand on foot to keep us going 😛. Couldn't recommend this place enough. Until next time 🍺🍻

A. P.

Dance floor with great music, good prices and fantastic cocktails! The stuff is always friendly and chilled with every costumer.. Def going again!!

M. R. r.

I have no clue why reviews are that bad. Yes it's artificial decoration (did you really expect authentic hawaian atmosphere and realm coconut tree in Cardiff ?). Prices are decent, sevice is friendly, cocktails were absolutely ok, just please add a dairy or a dairy free symbol on menu (wasn't excpecting cow milk in a pina colada). Thanks!

M.
