YOU NEED TO GO! Living in Cardiff for about 10 years and shocked and disappointed that I have not been here sooner. The bootlegger is exactly the place you need to be in. The selection of drinks is ridiculous in the best way possible and the menu is so vast and varied there is always something for everyone. They have happy hour deals and live music - what more could you want. The staff were also the most friendliest and lovely I’ve ever met. I had the cold fashion as part of Cardiff cocktail week - this needs to be on the menu!!!!!!! It was absolutely gorgeous, whoever thought of this creation is super duper! Get yourself there, or don’t. I’ll be there!

The cold fashioned that we had during cocktail week is one of the best that our group of four had had. Please add it to the menu as we think it is a more than worthy addition.
