It’s pretty easy to ‘dunk on’ Swansea’s city centre; with the closing high-street shops, lack of free parking and anti-social behaviour issues – BUT – I am a passionate defender! I’m going to write a whole post on this at some point – but quickly, I think it’s not fair to compare it to Cardiff,...

Could this be the best Welsh Breakfast in Swansea?
First off – I fully apologise for not being able to make a Welsh Breakfast look ‘aesthetic’, but if you love cockles and laverbread as much as I do (it’s my death row meal), I feel like you’ll understand how delicious the Welsh Breakfast from Cariad Caffi in Penclawdd looks from my picture, and if...
Tim Hortons Swansea
If Tim Hortons in Swansea has 100 haters, I’m one of them. If Tim Hortons in Swansea has one hater, the hater is me. If Tim Hortons Swansea has no haters – I am dead. So you get the vibe – I hate Tim Hortons. Look, I don’t know if it’s brilliant in Canada and...
Langland Brasserie Reviewed
If you’re looking to eat and drink at the fanciest place in Swansea – with brilliant food, a potential celebrity spot and one of the best views in the world, Landland Brasserie is the place to go. Located right on the beachfront at Langland Bay, you’ll spot well-heeled diners enjoying the sun on the balcony,...
The Observatory cafe and bar, Swansea Bay
Right on Swansea Bay front, The Observatory cafe and bar is undoubtedly the most dog-friendly place to get a really good brunch or an boozy drink looking over the sea, with indoor and outdoor seating over the sand. I’d say it’s probably the most ‘aesthetic’ venue in Swansea, with great-looking food and interiors, as well...
On the Rocks restaurant, Mumbles Pier
I officially have a new favourite place to eat in Swansea – a newish restaurant called On the Rocks, in the old lifeboat building on the Pier in Mumbles. It’s a steak restaurant, which serves you your meat ‘blue’, which you then finish off on a hot plate at your table – and genuinely –...
Rag and Bone Cafe, Swansea
When it comes to good food and coffee in West Cross, there’s slim pickings – so thank God for Rag and Bone cafe which is located at the ‘top shops’ in West Cross Swansea (136 W Cross Ln, West Cross, Swansea SA3 5NG) – which is one of my favourite places to eat in the...
Gin and Juice, Mumbles
When friends from outside of Swansea come to visit, Gin and Juice in the Mumbles is where I take them. Firstly, the restaurant is beautiful – It’s a real show stopper with a log burner, plants (a LOT of plants) and an indoor/outdoor conservatory – which means you can look out at stunning Swansea Bay...
Mumbles Coffee, Swansea
Mumbles Coffee in Swansea is no doubt, one of the most popular spots in the village. There’s the main cafe on the corner, the booth in the arcade and its little brother Microlot, on Dunns Lane – all super busy. They take their coffee very seriously – partnering up with local businesses and sourcing ‘the...
Fika bagels, Mumbles
Fika is one of the newer places to eat and drink in Newton Road, Mumbles (though it’s been around a couple of years) – but it’s become a firm favourite thanks to its food’s quality and value for money. When I heard a bagel place was moving into the vacant building, I was a bit...
