Hard Rock Café, Cardiff Hard Rock Café American Bar/Restaurant
St Mary Street, Cardiff • Tel (029) 2037 3403
Although world reknown, this isn't a great branch of the chain. The bar section is tiny, with the bar itself shaped like the bow of a ship and taking up most of the space. The restaurant part isn't much better, with a very cramped feeling layout.
