Love this place. Such a community feel to it. Tea is reasonably priced compared to other places in Pontcanna. Good WiFi and nice films. A good place to co work from with a coffee.
Delicious food & coffee ☕️. Need to book, as very busy. We went on early on a Sunday morning & it was full, with people queuing. Staff were very friendly & welcoming & service was very quick & efficient.
Chapter Arts Centre is a creative and welcoming space with a great mix of art, film, and community vibes. The exhibitions and cinema are always interesting, and the café is a nice spot to relax. A lovely place to spend time, though it can get a bit busy at peak times.
Cool indie cinema, brilliant theatre, stunning galleries, cozy cafe-bar with great craft beer. Relaxed vibe, super friendly staff, always something exciting on. Best cultural spot in Canton - feels like home every visit!
Today I attended an event at Chapter Arts Centre focused on patients, medication, and our health.. bringing together doctors, pharmacists, clinics, advocacy groups, and patients alike. The event itself was wonderful: informative, inclusive, and full of positive conversations about how we can better support one another. Unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by the venue’s actions. Attendees were asked to leave because the staff were not up to date on what CBMPs (Cannabis-Based Medicinal Products) are. This decision felt deeply discriminatory toward people who rely on prescribed medication for legitimate health conditions. It’s important to remember that the Equality Act exists for exactly this reason.. to ensure no one is treated unfairly due to their health or medical needs. Stigma should never override the law or compassion. Many of us attending were simply trying to participate in an event about health and wellbeing, yet we were made to feel excluded for managing our health responsibly. I truly hope Chapter Arts Centre takes this as an opportunity to educate their team, review their policies, and work toward becoming a more inclusive and understanding venue. No patient should have to fear being discriminated against for their prescribed treatment.
