Zizzi Cardiff Bay

Set on Mermaid Quay, Zizzi Cardiff Bay combines relaxed Italian dining with beautiful views across the water. With indoor and outdoor seating, it’s an inviting spot for everything from laid-back lunches and family meals to special occasions and catch-ups with friends. Just a short stroll from Everyman Cardiff Cinema and the Wales Millennium Centre, it’s also perfectly placed for a pre-show meal or a leisurely supper by the bay.

The menu puts a playful spin on Italian favourites, with plenty to tempt every appetite. Start with Pasta Crisps and punchy Calabrese dip or a bowl of olives, then settle in for Rustica pizzas ranging from classic Margherita to Pepperoni. Folded favourites such as Calzone Carne Piccante and Calzone Pollo Spinaci bring plenty of comfort, while pasta dishes span fresh and vibrant Vegan Pomodoro to the spicy Pollo Piccante. Signatures including Funghi Risotto and Hot Honey Glazed Duck offer something a little different.

Sharing is very much part of the experience, whether you opt for the gooey indulgence of a Fonduta Board or a generous Favourite Board made for passing around the table. Add a side of Five Cheese Gnocchi for an extra dose of comfort, then finish with something sweet, from Gooey Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough to a rich Salted Caramel Brownie.

With vegan and gluten-free options alongside the Italian classics, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. So choose a table, soak up the waterfront views and settle in for a relaxed Italian feast - with Cardiff Bay providing the perfect backdrop.
