Have we just found Cardiff's newest go-to spot for brunch? 🍳✨

While the city is full of classics, Poricardiff is making a serious case for the top spot since opening in November. Our picks are the Maple bacon pancakes, the Patatas Con Chorizo and a perfectly poured coffee.

he newest vision of the minds behind La Pantera, Pori is all about "brunch with a difference." You won't find any standard, pre-packaged fare here, just fresh, high-quality ingredients, creative flavours and delicious home bakes that bring a bit of late-night energy to your daytime dining 😋

📍 4 Trade Street, Cardiff (just off the beaten path and totally worth the walk!)

Are you Team Sweet or Team Savoury for brunch? Let us know in the comments! 👇

Name a better way to kick off the Christmas break... We’ll wait 🎄✨

We’ve just stepped out of the most magical evening at Cornerstone Cardiff for the .concerts : Christmas Movie Soundtracks and our festive spirits are at an all-time high.

Think hundreds of flickering candles, in one of our favourite city venues and a local string quartet playing those iconic themes that make the holidays what they are. From the nostalgia of Home Alone to the pure joy of The Holiday🎻
