Venues, pubs with live music?
Food, sights?
All advice is extra welcome!

I went for the day in 2019. There's an interesting indoor market and some good architecture. It was raining when I arrived so I went into an Italian restaurant for some hot carbs. I just walked around for the afternoon taking photos, had done no research into the city beforehand or since, Wales was on my bucket list to visit.

It’s my home city, but not been back for many many years. Hope you have a great trip and enjoy it!
I have in-laws in South Wales, but I've not been into Cardiff for years... it's probably the best place in the area for live music though, from the big Arena to medium and small venues. I can't imagine you'll have too much trouble finding something, although things are still a little weird post-youknowwhat.

Is Clwb Ifor Bach still open? Or did ***** finish it off? That used to be the 90s Cardiff Hotspot - Stereophonics, Manics, Catatonia etc

I saw the Super Furry Animals there a few times back in the day - great venue!

If you see a dead canary in a cage above and unmarked door, knock on the door, it's a speakeasy.
At all other opportunities...

the museum of Wales has some great impressionist paintings. And the arboretum is fantastic. If you love trees. Which I do. I am a simple man.

An old school friend of mind went on to become their sound engineer for a LONG time. Haven't heard from him in a long time though, no idea what he does now
I’ve been to the market. Cardiff Castle is cool. Pennarth (I think) is a very short train ride. It’s a beautiful seaside town with a huge pier.
