Great place to watch sport, good selection of beers and food

Soleless and pretentious. You are not allowed to order at the bar, everything is done on your phone with a tip to Google on every order. Staff I assume are lovely, but walk around like they are in a 1984 novel. Food was ok. Football coverage good. Bring back Dempsey's

A must go to for any football/sports fan. The memorabilia on display is great! The food and drink here is also amazing with a great atmosphere on game days. Highly recommend!

Gareth Baleâs restaurant was a cool spot, but probably not the best spot ever to watch a Wales football match. The place ended up filling up a bit with fans watching the game, but the atmosphere wasnât super great/passionate. Iâm sure thatâs partly due to it being a newer spot. I ordered the steak & chips. The steak was good, but wasnât one to write home about. I did enjoy the chimichurri sauce on the steak and the onions and arugula garnish on the side. The chips were decent and had a nice crisp to them. Ordering the food from the QR code in the table wasnât super clear and we ended up ordering additional sides (sweet potato fries, mozzarella sticks, onion rings, and the curry dough balls) when we thought we were ordering them in place of the chips. The sides were all good though with the sweet potato fries being my favorite. We got the Oreo Fudge Sunday which was a perfect dessert to share between the 3 us. It was quite good! We tried the 3 âBale Beersâ which were all pretty good! The Bale glasses were a nice touch too! The decor around the place is pretty cool, from the player jerseys to the replica champions league trophy and the boots that he scored the bicycle kick against Liverpool in the champions league final in Cardiff. Pretty special stuff.

THE place to go to watch any big sporting event! The simplicity of the self-service/scanning system works a treat! The staff are never too far away & happy to help. For a so-called sports bar, the food is superb!! Never had a bad experience visiting Elevens! PLEASE NOTE If you do decide to go, I highly advise booking a table in advance to avoid disappointment.

This place isnât underappreciated. âmust doâ when visiting Cardiff if you are a sports fan! Situated immediately across from the ancient and beautiful part of Castle, 11 bar is a sports fans Paradise. Owned by Gareth Bale it is obviously full of cool sports memorabilia. It was very quiet when we attended midday. The facility is clean, sleek, and plenty of televisions for the sports enthusiast. It takes time to browse all the really neat and varied sports collectibles in the facility. The staff were amazingly friendly, and nothing was an imposition for them. We absolutely plan on going each time we visit Cardiff.

Came here with 4 friends who were visiting cardiff and they were all drinking in a round via the app. I had the car and didn't want to go to expence of entering into a very expensive round ( it's expensive in here). I said to my friends that I'll get my own and came downstairs to get a drink from the bar. There were two bar staff standing around doing nothing so I politely asked for a drink with the aim of paying with my card. I was flatly refused saying I had to order via the app. I don't take my phone on a Saturday nights as I may lose it so couldn'tdo that. So. The member of staff with purple hair refused a sale. As they were doing not much at the time, it would have hardly killed them to serve me a drink from the bar. Gareth Bale you have a really bad policy that excludes your customers and the girl that refused me a drink, didn't care less or offered any kind of apology. I can't see this bar staying open for much longer either. It's not a sports bar as it offered one channel of sport on all screens. There's zero atmosphere in here and its dark, gloomy and full of blokes. The bar had emptied out by 9pm on a Saturday night and I can totally see why. Won't be back. Dempseys was so much better and had heart and soul and live music upstairs to boot. 0 out of 10 Ellevens.

This is a solid sports themed bar & grill. Table service is nice and quick, even when the venue is completely full. Food was much better than expected, all the dishes we ordered were great to eat while watching football. Ordering via the QR code was seamless. The only negative was the volume of the venue when full, as it was so loud, it was hard to talk.

We took our son for his 10th birthday and a member of staff called Ryan has created a moment that my son will never forget. Ryan was brilliant with everything but what he did for my boy goes above and beyond. Coming to the table with a Gareth Bale signed photo to give him left him emotionally broken with joy. Ryan, we will never forget what you did for our son on his birthday. Bale is Tyler's hero and the only way it could have been any better would be to meet the man himself. We have spent loads on presents for his birthday but this moment from Ryan is priceless. Thank you so much.

Went here to watch football and had food and drinks. The food was lovely and reasonably priced but the drinks were a terrible price a non alcoholic Guinness in a can was ÂŁ5.60 and a pint of Stella was ÂŁ6.40. Not sure if the prices are like this all the time or just increased due to trying to make money out of a big group.

It's fine here, great for sport, but having had such a fondness for Dempseys (it's prior incarnation) it's hard for me to enjoy. I'm like one of those old blokes off of First Dates who's true love has died, so they're now there with a perfectly acceptable alternative, but you can never replace what you had before. Even if it did have a funny smell.

Always enjoyed going to Elevens bar but their new policy of only being able to order via the app is ridiculous. The cherry on top is that you are then charged an administration fee for the bad service. Won't be recommending or going again unless this changes.

Shocking idea of using the qr code to access an ordering menu. After 30 mins of attempting to log into the system.we gave up. Asked a member of bar staff if there were any issues using their system to be told there wasn't. This member of staff was completely devoid of any interest in the issues we were having. Luckily for us another member of staff saw sense and let us order the old fashioned way by asking a bartender for 2 pinta and 2 cokes. Not the greatest experience I have had and won't be rushing back anytime soon.

Rip off Admin charge ! The bar it self was nice and staff work hard but Considering the current climate not even small struggling businesses are forcing extra charges and using an app rather than at bar service , very disappointing, not the cheapest place to drink and ok not the dearest either but itâs not like the admin charge is then given to the staff. I would have expected better from a Bale bar to be honest.

Called in for a lunch on Monday afternoon with my wife. The QR code required for the menu has invalid characters, likely trying to execute code; so my scanner app gave 'unsupported' message. My wife asked staff for a hardcopy menu instead, but a staff member came over and snatchd the phone from my hand. He proceeded to turn on connection preferences that I choose to have disabled for security (such as NFC). He tried to connect my phone to their WiFi but failed. Handing my phone back, he told me that I have to use Chrome on their WiFi to order, then walked off. I connected to the WiFi and used their site via Chrome. Completing the order I attempted to pay using PayPal; this looped repeatedly, either an attempt to make me give credit card information, or a poorly coded application, possibly wanting permissions that I won't allow to random internet apps. Too much hassle, so we took our custom to where it was welcome. Fix your staff's attitude, don't snatch people's phones and I suggest adopt a business plan that doesn't require insecure devices from the customer.

We pre booked explained we had a wheelchair user (terminally ill) on the booking form . We were given a very high table so she had to eat off her lap below everyone else ,also the disabled toilet was being used for storage so she couldn't use it safely. Also the food was very dry not enjoyable at all . When we identified this to staff a member did offer to change our table and remove the storage from the toilet when we need it next . We simply weren't going to up root other customers and spoil there experience and feel embarrassed. With some disabilities you simply can't wait for items to be removed from the toilet. The staff member did seem to genuinely care about the situation. There was 8 of us in our party we simply will never go there again the place is a disgrace.
