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,...
We’re big fans of a carvery in this household and think the best one in Swansea is The Buck Inn in Ponlliw, by a country mile. So when I heard that the owners of it had taken over the super popular venue, The George in Mumbles, I got pretty excited we were going to get...

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...
