Inspired by a true story from Kris Roach 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
who called from the paddleboard one day to ask if we were open.

On The River: Good morning, this is On The River
SUP’er: Hi, I’m on the river…
On The River: Yes, this is On The River.
SUP’er: No, I’m ON the river…

You can see where this is going! If you are ever ON the river, you’re welcome in and bring your board whilst you grab a coffee and if you need to call us try “I’m actually on the River Taff”, that’ll help us greatly. 😂

The weekend is here legends, you’ve made it! 🥳

We’re here all weekend for breakfast, a coffee catch up, a stop on the walk with your doggo… but also, we’ll have the football on and we’ll be open during the Cardiff Half, so if you need a spot for post run relaxation or a supporters sip (thank us later!) - come and see us.

We’ll share more over the weekend in regards to timings! See you On The River! 🌊

This Thursday comedy returns to On The River with Ronnie for their fortnightly sesh of giggles. As always, the giggles are FREE so that frees up your purse strings for a pint or two! 😉

Joining Ronnie is a whole host of acts including Headliner Chrissy Derbyshire and Opener Bobby Brant - we can’t wait for another round with the comedians On The River!

Finally found something to do with Mikes Resting B*tch Face, I’m sure you’ll all agree we’ve hit the jackpot here! 😂

He’s not actually that grumpy, you can ask him for a pint honest, he’ll only charge you twice.

ITSSSS CHRISTMASSS! Well, no it isn’t yet, but we’re shouting out to the Christmas party planners and telling you to get the show on the road!

We’re ready to help you! Just let us know your preferred date and number of people attending to get started.

If you’re the person organising the lads or your girl gang, also get a festive shake on - please and thank you!
