Quiet, but busy local on Llandaff's extended High Street. At the very back of the Butcher's Arms is a very pleasant, partly covered beer garden, unusual for a Cardiff pub and a very well-kept secret. The Smoke Room has attractively carved cornices and features numerous pump clips from breweries whose beers have been served in this pub over the years. The Butcher's Arms has much of the atmosphere of a country pub, despite being in a suburb of Cardiff. May close early at night.
