Park House Restaurant & Fine Wine Bar

Story

Park House,, 20 Park Place, Cardiff, Wales, is a nineteenth century town house. It was built for John McConnochie, Chief Engineer to the Bute Docks, by the Gothic revivalist architect William Burges. It is a Grade I listed building. The architectural writer John Newman writes that the architectural style of the house; "revolutionized Cardiff's domestic architecture," and CADW considers the building; "perhaps the most important 19th century house in Wales."HistoryCommissioned by McConnochie in 1871, the house was completed externally by 1874, although decoration of the interior continued, somewhat slowly, until McConnochie's Cardiff mayoral year of 1880. The surveyor was J. Holden. The house was much admired at the time of its construction, being referenced by Viollet-le-Duc and its plans displayed at the Royal Academy. Today, the house is of particular interest for three reasons; as the precursor of Burges' own house in Kensington, as evidence of one of the few architectural errors Burges made in his career and as a template for an architectural style which had a significant influence on late Victorian/Early Edwardian Cardiff. "By its powerful early French Gothic style, its steep roofs and boldly textured walls (the house) revolutionized Cardiff's domestic architecture."The house is now a restaurant. To publicise its opening to the public in 2012, the owner wrapped the building with a giant red ribbon. As this had been done without listed building consent, Cardiff council demanded its removal.

Lovely restaurant with great service. Fabulous comprehensive wine list with knowledgeable staff on hand to help. We had 8 course tasting menu which we enjoyed all but the cheese course. The a la carte menu looked great also. Lovely cheese cart which we ordered from separately to our menu there was good choice and definitely one of the high points of the evening. 4 stars rather than 5 as women's toilet 2 floors up from restaurant which is a disruption to a lovely long meal with lovely wine.

Amazing. Service was great. Environment was great. Food was astronomical. Tried the taster menu and it was some of the best cuisine I have indulged in. Best in Cardiff? Quite possibly.

I recently had lunch at the Parkhouse and was impressed with the set lunch and the razor sharp service. However, the best feature is the historic wine list. Great job. Adam is a great host. This is a real asset to Cardiff
