Cardiff Bootlegger

Tucked away on the historic cobbled streets of Womanby Street, The Bootlegger is Cardiff’s go-to spot for expertly crafted cocktails, smooth live tunes, and a little slice of prohibition-era charm. Run by two brothers and a lifelong friend—born and raised in South Wales—this independent cocktail bar and live music venue is all about good vibes, great drinks, and even better company.

Step inside, and you’ll find two levels of fun. Upstairs, our late-night cocktail lounge serves up over 60 handcrafted cocktails, mixed with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Whether you’re into classic mixes, experimental flavors, or one of our 100+ gins, we’ve got something to keep your glass full.

Downstairs? That’s where the magic happens. Soul, jazz, blues, rock ‘n’ roll, and funk fill the air as local musicians and swing DJs take over the stage, keeping the energy high until the early hours.
