Pubs in Dinas Powys

Village locals — kitchen hours on wet Tuesdays.

Dinas Powys pubs mix square locals with rooms toward the station — bar open does not mean the kitchen is serving. Saturday evenings fill the centre; this is not a Barry Island lock-in.

What to know

Where to eat

Dinas Powys has a quietly impressive independent food cluster on Station Road. The Humble Onion (029 2280 6267), tucked behind The Star in a converted coach house, runs a supper club Thurs–Sat (£28.50 for starter + main, weekly-changing menu) and Sunday lunch — an extraordinary find in a village setting. One O'Clock Gate (Highwalls Road; 029 20 514128) is an Asian-fusion burger restaurant open Thurs–Sat from 1pm with a well-regarded cocktail menu. Beijaflor (15 Station Road) is a warm bar-restaurant inspired by Portuguese flavours. The Star Inn (Station Road) is the traditional gastropub at the centre of village life — dog-friendly, beer garden, cask ales.
