Restaurants in Dinas Powys

Village sitting — book Saturday; Barry Island is a different table.

Dinas Powys restaurants sit toward the village square — useful if you are mixing the Vale commuter with Cardiff. Book Saturday. Barry Island is a different sitting on the same Vale taxi table; this village is not a harbour.

Beijaflor (15 Station Road) is a warm bar-restaurant inspired by Portuguese flavours.
