Pasture, Restaurant in Cardiff, UK
Pasture is a restaurant on High Street in Cardiff, close to Cardiff Castle, with a menu centered on beef cooked over charcoal and cherry wood. The space features an open kitchen where chefs work at the grill, and glass cabinets displaying dry-aged cuts hang in full view of the dining area.
Pasture grew out of a movement among British restaurants to work directly with local farmers and serve beef raised on open pasture rather than in intensive systems. The founding idea was to let the quality of the meat, cut and aged in-house, speak for itself on the plate.
Welsh rugby fans are a regular presence at Pasture, and on match days the dining room fills quickly with groups coming to eat together before or after the game. Rugby jerseys hang on the walls, giving the space a distinctly local character.
The restaurant sits in central Cardiff and is easy to reach on foot from the main sights and shopping areas of the city. Booking ahead is a good idea for weekend evenings, as the dining room fills up fast.
On weekends a resident DJ plays, and many guests stay on well after their meal for drinks and late-night music, making the evening run much longer than a typical dinner. The restaurant also has a terrace right in the city center, which is an unusual feature for a place focused on serious cooking.
