Cardiff pub latest in plan to act before the ban Welsh brewer and pubco Brains has made another of its pubs smoke-free – its sixth ahead of next April’s ban.


As part of a continued plan to act early prior to the ban, Brains has transformed one of Cardiff’s oldest pubs into a no-smoking venue.

The Old Arcade, in Church Street, has had part of its roof from the rear section removed to create a courtyard area.

It is linked to the back room by state-of-the-art floor-to-ceiling glass doors that can be opened in good weather. In addition, canopies have been erected in the lane which runs alongside the pub to provide further sheltered outdoor space for customers.

Andrew Lynch-Wilson, the Old Arcade’s manager, said: “The pub is a real institution in Cardiff and has been a Brains’ pub since the turn of the last century, so during the refurbishment we made sure that all the improvements kept its original character while providing a smart, contemporary solution for our customers.”
