Buy Local Pontcanna - visiting Pontcanna, Cardiff? Here's a run down of some of Pontcanna's top local retail attractions
As our first ever Buy Local Campaign by thebestof Cardiff gets under way - there is no more fitting place to start than my former residents of Pontcanna, Cathedral Road, Cardiff. Famous for it's Bohemian range of boutique shops, popular cafe bars and characteristic charm, Pontcanna has grown to offer itself as a unique bilingual attraction for those looking to visit, stay and even eat in the affluence of Cardiff.
Our Buy Local Cardiff Campaign is all about raising awareness of the many Independent micro businesses, retailers, services, cafes and restaurants that serve the vast amount of towns and villages that make Cardiff the glorious capital that it is.
Around 20+ shops, restaurants and services took part and are now flying the Buy Local Campaign badge which will start popping up all over Cardiff over the coming months. Without further ado here's a run down of those shops in Pontcanna supporting the very start of our Cardiff Buy Local Campaign. (In no particular order!)
