Stadium Plaza

Positive experience: Went just on opening time on my birthday to take advantage of the free birthday meal glad I did as food wasn't very hot and some choice not very nice would of regretted if me and my partner went there and paid the £50 for 2 people instead of the £25 we paid using the offer couldn't under stand why its cash before a time in the day for the food but drinks are card only. One place I probably wouldn't go and eat again

Positive experience: Feels a bit shabby and dated these days, but the cinema is ok

Fantastic experience: Beautiful

Fantastic experience: Visited the buffet restaurant. £20 on a Thursday. Big selection of dishes freshly cooked and well prepared couldn't fault it!

Fantastic experience: It's an all you can scoff buffet, good selection of food, it's nice to be able to try small amounts of stuff that your not sure if you like or not, very busy and not much of an atmosphere.

Positive experience: It was ok.

Fantastic experience: As far as stadiums go, this has to be the most scenic approach! Lots of street art too. Love it!

Positive experience: Very friendly place, not much options for oriental food and for 1 pint of carling was £6 and a glass of coke was £4

Positive experience: it's too expensive

Positive experience: Watched Captain America in Vue cinema Fantastic large screen, comfortable seating but no handrail on steps up or down from your seats, frightening at my age

Fantastic experience: I felt on top of the world iright there

Fantastic experience: Clean and tidy. No queues. Good films and pleasant staff.

Positive experience: Food is not piping hot, there is a good variation of cheaper meals at lunch time with plenty of cake/ sweets/ice cream for dessert

Fantastic experience: JRC buffet visited. Separate review added.

Fantastic experience: Xmas works afternoon/evening out. To much choice to try all of it, very clean, staff on the ball removing used plates etc, will be going again

Negative experience: This is the worst place in the world because I've had sickness and diarrhoea every time I've had a food here add multiple times I've come here

Positive experience: Decent buffet

Positive experience: Very good experience, if you're looking to sample food from different countries.

Positive experience: Nice place to visit.good selection of foods

Fantastic experience: Great place and great food.

Fantastic experience: Just great ..

Fantastic experience: Jrc buffet Great space Great variety of food Friendly staff All the family could eat what they wanted ! Will be back

Fantastic experience: Lovev it

Positive experience: Lazer tag is great for kids .The food for parties is average .

Fantastic experience: European Asian Cousine.... There's an urgent need for African cousine to be included...(Likes of Jollof Rice, Fried Rice, Suya and spice etc)

Positive experience: Very good loved it there plenty of different foods

Positive experience: Large selection of take away food, buffet style. Very well presented. Ice cream, ice lollies and sweets too. Lots of staff on hand, clean eating area. Situated next to the stadium. 7 mins walk from main shopping centre.

Fantastic experience: JRC global buffet restaurant is part of the stadium. Its own entrance is facing BBC building, next to the stadium entrance.

Fantastic experience: Great selection of national food good value price

Positive experience: £25 for JRC world buffet (without drinks) was a little pricey in my opinion. But, I like to think I ate my money's worth! The new ramen station was particularly tasty.

Positive experience: Visited the newly opened buffet. I would say the food was OK. Staff very friendly and help full. Restaurant was very clean ( it is brand new , so expected) would I eat there again. Probably not.

Positive experience: OK but a bit like a canteen rather than a restaurant food ok nothing special staff very good.

Positive experience: The place was gorgeous. Unfortunately for me the food fell a little short. It seemed to me that there was more of a focus on variety and less on quality and execution. As a chef I know I can do better, as a Cordon Bleu trained Chef specialising in Asian Cuisine trained in West Yorkshire and having 27 years experience I am probably spoiled in terms of what good Asian food should taste like. It's possible a lack of competition, or just a flaw in kitchen management, but I feel they can do better. For this I give 4 starts as there are potential reasons, however personally I want to give 2 starts as the dining hall atmosphere was rather odd too. The idea of leaving my bad and coat with phone, wallet and medications in a room full of strangers as I leave the room to go to a different room for my food is an odd one

Fantastic experience: Good tasty pizza

Negative experience: It's now JRC world, basically a Chinese takeaway that you don't take away, but it might as well be JVC world as one of their televisions is probably tastier. The most interesting thing was a Dalek in the opposite building, I think they use its lazer gun to bake the food.

Fantastic experience: Didn't go inside but looked like a lovely stadium from outside

Positive experience: It's been needed repairs/Renovation for a while when I went the other day it looks as though they're starting to so hopefully it can be brought back to a fice star in the future, but not until its had a fresh coat of paint and all the escalators work

Positive experience: Vast place with lots of activities

Positive experience: On one of the coldest days of the year there was no heating in the cinema. It felt very cold to sit there for over 2 hours.

Positive experience: Cinema is good but always cold

Positive experience: Used to be my favourite cinema in the City Centre but it was so cold on this occasion we had to keep our coats on. They are probably not heating it as there were only approx 15 people in total watching the movie.

Fantastic experience: Plenty of leg room in cinema seats

Fantastic experience: A great place to be, Cardiff leisure quarter. You can find a cinema, a gym, and many other attractions.

Positive experience: Nice place for a raining Sunday

Fantastic experience: the cinema is easy to access and very clean. the staff are freindly

Fantastic experience: Nice place close to river with wide spaces to run about and close to train stations and venues like cinema and arcade with bowling alley

Fantastic experience: Great on a sunny day Awful on a rainy day

Positive experience: Went to the cinema, plenty of seats available. Drinks, sweets etc. are ridiculously overpriced.

Fantastic experience: Great cinema and nice helpful staff

Fantastic experience: We watched the new Avarta - brilliant!

Positive experience: OK, first things first. If you go here, do your research on where you might park. We topping 1.9M in height which meant we couldn't use some of car parks close by, so ended up at Central Station. However, the cinema was dead quite maybe 12 people max, (this was a Tuesday 20.00 showing)served straight away at counter, typical cinema prices. Sound was a too loud, on trailers yet settled for main film. Seats were clean and comfy. Enjoyable evening.

Positive experience: Went bowling. Friendly, helpful staff booked us in quickly. Place was not very clean, awful sewer smell near toilets and the bowling was glitchy - reset the game halfway through then cut off partway through new game.

Positive experience: Easy to get to, and very nice facilities.

Positive experience: Looking a bit tatty. Cinema was fine though

Fantastic experience: Good place and server

Fantastic experience: Cocktails are amazing, the food is to die for and the service was excellent

Fantastic experience: The whole Millennium Stadium gifts Cardiff city centre a sense of grandeur. This is no different for the Plaza outside it is a large space where you can gather with friends easily and allows for a lot of activities to be done there on a match day it is absolutely packed beyond belief and very fun to walk around

Fantastic experience: Me and my family went bowling and to play the arcade here. The venue is great loads of different games to play and prizes to be won. Loads of pool tables dotted about to play, and food and drink. We played 2 rounds of bowling and spent 4 hours in the arcade and spent £150 we expected it to be at least 200-250 when we left but was well lower, awesome for a family or a group of friends. Later tag, bowling, food and drink and an arcade. Great place would visit again!!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful, worth seeing

Positive experience: Cool

Positive experience: Alright place to keep the kids happy, gets very busy on weekends and school holidays

Fantastic experience: Scored my best game ever against my best mates kid and his friends for his birthday, place was packed but had a good time and staff where very helpful.

Fantastic experience: I visit every week to watch film at Vue Cinema.

Negative experience: Abysmal 90 degree seats at Vue, now require an appointment to a chiropractor. Get the seats a bit more reclined and you can have 5 stars.

Fantastic experience: Great.

Fantastic experience: Apologies, Got you mixed up with Superbowl. Great size cinema screen, presentation, facilities.

Fantastic experience: Laserquest was amazing! I had what I thought would be the unfortunate task of taking my 9 year old niece and twelve of her friends to laserquest in Stadium Plaza. I shouldn't have worried, it was amazing fun! The staff were so patient and well equipped for anything the kids threw at them, I was genuinely so impressed. Large parties have their own little area, surrounded by arcade machines, so take plenty of change!

Fantastic experience: Truly the best of Welsh architecture

Fantastic experience: Superb shopping experience ce

Positive experience: Ladies toilets needed toilet roll.

Positive experience: This is a great gym but fire several months complaints about not having lockers that work have gone unheeded despite many complaints

Negative experience: Very bad

Fantastic experience: Not sure I visited here but with the name stadium in it I'll give it a thumbs up

Positive experience: Have Vue Cinema inside the Plaza

Fantastic experience: Just want to say a well done to the guy who served our food on the 24/6/21 it was quite busy and he was trying his best, we noticed he had additional needs and despite this he was very professional and very polite

Fantastic experience: Great fun for the whole family and friends

Fantastic experience: Loved the visit buy poor customer service at Vue Cardiff... didn't know what they were doing. Really unorganised.

Positive experience: Not a whole lot to do here. Construction has taken over half the area since BBC offices moved in.

Fantastic experience: The staff are friendly and the equipment is great

Positive experience: Cinema was cheep 4.50 pre person all day but I live in Oxfordshire and you pay 3 times more for the same chan of cinema. Just because I live in Oxfordshire dose not make me rich anything but .well done Cardiff for looking after there people

Positive experience: Nice place but limited options with food and entertainment except the cinema. Ongoing construction around it doesn't help as nothing else is opened on the street. However, adjoining streets such as St. Mary's street is vibrant.

Fantastic experience: Cheap drinks and very lively

Positive experience: The Stadium plaza is a great place to go for a few hours. Vue The Cinema has comfortable seats and screenings offer 2D 3D and IMAX, the Cinema here is a great place to catch up with your friends although I wouldn't recommend getting the nachos with cheese sauce as the sauce tasted like some sort of broccoli water. The staff are great, helpful and friendly. If I had any complaint, it would be that the Cinema isn't innovative as in they don't have 4D, like Cineworld, they don't offer before and after facilities for an alcohol beverage like Odean and they don't have shockingly low prices like Premier Cinema. Rating: 3.5 Gym Haven't been to the gym personally, but could see through I window that there wasn't a shortage of equipment. Rating: Couldn't say, haven't gone Bowling and Lazer Shooting The Bowling is nothing special when compared to others, but it does offer reasonable prices and food and drink. Likewise, the Lazer Shooting downstairs does not impress, alright facility but friends children said it smelt like sick so I wouldn't give it a go myself. Rating: I'll give a 4 as I haven't done the Lazer Shooting, and when you eye up the surrounding facilities and food service it would make a 4. Wheelchair Accessibility I don't have a wheelchair myself, so don't take what I suggest as a definite but, a lift was in use due to the amount of floors; 3- Vue screens 2- Vue screens and food and drink, plus toilet facilities including operational disabled toilets. 1-Lobby Area with stairs down to bowling and Lazer Shooting in the basement. I wouldn't come with a wheelchair if the lift was broken as the only other way up to my knowledge, are escalators. Overall I'll have to average from the bowling area to the cinema which would round up to a 4. I would take my kids or friends here, but wouldn't suggest an entire day out.

Positive experience: Great facility but a tad quiet

Fantastic experience: Really good gym and excellent personal trainers

Positive experience: Comfortable Vue cinema seating, Very nice & polite staff, reasonable ticket prices. Ticket price 8/10 Sound quality 7/10 Ambient Lighting is quite distracting 5/10

Positive experience: Not bad.

Fantastic experience: If I hadn't had a lazerquest voucher I wouldn't have known this place existed. The stadium plaza kept the kids and I busy for a few hours on a Saturday afternoon.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful stadium - great wales win

Positive experience: It's pretty cool to hangout but there are always problems with the games machines. It's quite expensive for what it is ie bowling and Lazer tag. The Lazer tag side of things are quite cool though

Positive experience: I love bowling plus the staffs where nice

Fantastic experience: Great for bowling Arcades and cinema

Positive experience: Decent but nothing special

Fantastic experience: Alway nice for a few games of pool or bowling, it's usually not crowded, you don't have to wait much either to get your lane, the prices for drinks are reasonable!

Fantastic experience: Cinemas old but functional. Bowling is good.

Positive experience: It's cheap, and it's always busy. It has the feel of a large bowling and arcade complex, but once you've visited it on a couple of occasions, you soon realise its quite the disappointment. A mix of students, teenagers and some families during the day, and night so gauge what kind of experience you can expect from that. However, the staff are super helpful as always. 'it is what it is' as they say.

Positive experience: Good services but ran out of lots of food items

Positive experience: Comfortable seats. Friendly helpful staff.

Positive experience: Very good place lost of activities to do only problem is it can get very busy and the waiting que was an hour just to play bowling

Fantastic experience: Clean with nice staff
