Llanishen Reservoir is an artificial reservoir in the city of Cardiff, Wales. It was constructed in 1884 and is ajoined to Lisvane Reservoir.

It is the home of the Llanishen Sailing Centre.

The reservoir has been under threat due to the owners, Western Power Distribution, seeking permission to fill in the reservoir and build housing. After much local opposition, the plans were shelved.
