The restaurant and bar scene in South Wales is equally impressive, offering everything from fine dining and global cuisine to cosy cafés and stylish cocktail lounges. Cardiff, Swansea, and Newport are home to a wide range of eateries catering to all tastes and budgets, while smaller towns and coastal villages offer hidden gems well worth discovering.
