THE SANDMARTIN

before home games i normally take my son to asdas for a bit of grub but yesterday i thought id give the sandmartin a go .... for £5.99 each we both had a carvery and i must say it was absolutely gorgeous ... they give you your meat, yorkshire and stuffing and then you can ram on all the greens and potatos you want! .... get in there boys and girls because what a way to kick-off your match day experience!

Was it bussy mate? 6 quid thats a good price for good grub, That will get you a tray of chips in the CCS.

i got in there a 2pm and i found a table easy and just walked up to the carvery after paying at the till ... i was like an egg leaving there though!

Heard you're only allowed to drink in there with food... what a stupid fucken idea. They'd make a bomb if they had a bar/pub in there.

you`d have idiots in there then though .... its brilliant as it is ... warm and friendly!

went to a good carvery a few months back when i was up my uncles in Leigh, Taybarn's, well nice, cheap and all you can eat, all different selections laid out, fish shop, sunday roast, italian, currys, grillers ect ect, sadly the only one in wales is in swansea

handy if you want to watch the jacks i suppose or fancy a trip up to leigh to watch the rugby league but bit pointless posting that under this thread thanks all the same though!

They are really strict with the no food no drink rule aswell.

We went in towards the end of last season, 6 of us eating one lad not, they wouldn't let him have a drink, had to order your drink with your food and there was no way we could get him one and just sit there as they were all over it.

We left in the end, its a decent place though and as Aherne said you cant blame them cos it would be full of idiots otherwise.

all sorts of confessions yesterday Baz

It would be better if you can only have food if you're drinking, food's for wimps.

I was there yesterday too. Sat over by the child's play area. Lovely food and will definitely be frequenting there before match days in the future. The steak was beautiful!

Went to a Greek restaurant after the game in the evening food was crap plates were smashing though!.

It's not their rule.

The licence stipulates the rule on match days. Not sure what it is trying to achieve though. Heard it was to direct drinkers into the ground.

Went to a Japanese restaurant last week after the Hull City game and asked the waiter to get me the wine list and not to get sake!.

I thought the carvery at the Culverhouse was pretty decent. The foods a fair bit better in there since they done it up.

Heard you're only allowed to drink in there with food... what a stupid fucken idea. They'd make a bomb if they had a bar/pub in there.

you`d have idiots in there then though .... its brilliant as it is ... warm and friendly!

Do you mean fellow Cardiff City fans who want a drink?

I've never seen a pub near the ground that says "no kids mate, just idiots in here"

I'd happily take my kids into any boozer near the ground. Language..hmmm a bit
choice... singing... raucous behaviour.

but thats a football day

its the ones with bad attitudes i hate taffy .... you know the ones i mean .... when im out with my 12 year old son i dont want to be near those idiots and believe me they are about! ... put a few pints in some people and they are a right pain in the prick! .... the sandmartin wont have those clowns in there and thats the place for me ....... so sod off! [only joking] [this time!]

I remember when city fans were kicking up a fuss that they wouldn't rename their pub after something to do with the football club! Even wrote a strongly worded letter too. Couldn't believe the cheek of some of the fans tbh
