The Old Custom House welcomes you to two of Wales' premier restaurants. Perfectly situated on the water front overlooking Cardiff Bay, The Old Custom House combines two exquisite restaurants.
El Puerto
The exquisite El Puerto restaurant is located on the lower floor of the Custom House building. Its lively atmosphere coupled with the brassiere's 45ft long bar makes it a superb venue for a lunch or evening meal.
Overlooking Cardiff bay, the solid wood floors, scattering of sawdust and warm hues and tones give the thought you could be somewhere in Spain. The hive of El Puerto is the kitchen which is set as part of the open display. The counter is always brimming with prime cuts of meat, game and the freshest of fish.
El Puerto also offers a fantastic choice for Sunday lunch varying from traditional Sunday roast with all the trimmings to something a bit more adventurous. Children are welcome throughout the week in El Peurto but please be aware we do not have high chair facilities.
El Puerto offers a full 'a la carte' menu but also daily specials both at lunch and dinner times. All menus can be viewed in the restaurant and sample menus are available on request. Please be aware that due to the atypical nature of our menu and dependancy on fresh produce, we do not have a fixed menu throughout the year.
Booking in advance is recommended on the weekends to avoid disappointment.

La Marina
La Marina restaurant is located on the 2nd floor of the beautiful Custom House, Penarth. It benefits from a breathtaking view overlooking Cardiff bay that is most stunning when lit up at night.
La Marina is a popular choice for lunch time and evening diners alike, wishing to seek a quiet refuge away from their busy working lives. The lighter tones and suggestion of space give for a more relaxed environment - ideal for a polite meal away from the capital city.
In addition to the fantastic views La Marina also incorporates a large fish counter, displaying various specialities including sea bass in rock salt or something that little more special such as Brill of lobster. La Marina's fish are caught fresh and hand picked so that only those of highest quality are used. Types on offer will vary from day to day and week to week. La Marina also offers fresh meat and game for those who may not so keen on fresh fish dishes. La Marina also offers a traditional Sunday lunch menu as well as its full a la carte option.
Booking in advance is recommended on the weekends to avoid disappointment.
