Tiger Yard food court opens in Cardiff Bay
The new venture comes from the same team behind Cardiff’s entertainment venue, The Depot
Tiger Yard, a brand new outdoor food court, has opened its doors in Cardiff Bay this summer.
After months of work, Tiger Yard has transformed the former Dr Who Experience in Cardiff Bay into an outdoor food court, featuring six permanent shipping container kitchens and two purpose-built bars.
The new food court features 22 rainbow-coloured shipping containers used to create the bars, kitchens, toilet blocks, and some seating areas.
The site includes a total of 1,000 covers.
The new venture comes from the same team behind Cardiff’s entertainment venue, The Depot.
The venue will play host to Fire and Flank, which will offer steaks and sides, The Rock and Scallop, which will serve up gourmet seafood and Meating Point, offering authentic Greek street food; classic souvlaki and gyros.
Dirty Bird and Terry’s Tacos have also joined as vendors in the new place.
Additionally, there will be one guest trader taking over a sixth kitchen on a weekly basis.
Peter Cro, director at The Depot Group, said: “We are committed to providing a vibrant, diverse, and memorable experience at Tiger Yard and can’t wait to bring something different – and independent – to Cardiff Bay, which has long been dominated by bigger chains. The whole team is looking forward to a busy summer by the water.”
Cardiff-based designers Studio Severn, who worked with The DEPOT team to create the space, added: “Tiger Yard has been great fun to work on and develop with the team, especially as it enhances the independent food scene in the Bay. It was important to make an impact not only with the scale of the venue – but also to ensure that brand personality shines through and provides an exciting and vibrant space to lose a few hours.”
