A Cardiff pub has announced it is changing hands and being transformed into a "pizza pub" venue. On May 1 St Canna's Ale House, a micropub serving local beer in Pontcanna, will be taken over by Slizza Pizza.
James Morgan, the landlord of St Canna's, said he was "gutted" to be closing the pub, which he opened in 2017. Mr Morgan said the difficulties of the current cost of living crisis meant the business had become "unworkable."
The ale house had already sublet a portion of the premises to Slizza Pizza to run their business. Mr Morgan, 42, said they approached him explaining that they were looking to expand and asked if he would be willing to sell the premises to them.
