This is a really nice place to come and visit for food and drink. Everything can be ordered easily on your phone from the various vendors. The burger I had was phenomenal. It is not the cheapest place to eat out but the quality is very good and the atmosphere is very pleasant. We enjoyed our visit so much that we returned the next day to try one of the other vendors which was equally delicious.
Food was great, very filling and very good value for money, expensive ish BUT worth the money! Great cheerful, helpful, friendly staff. Loved my first visit, and will definitely be going again. Husband loved the tater tots and burger. I loved the burger and chips. Thankyou for a lovely lunch experience.
Cool place to go for food, drinks and enjoy the music. Central location on Wind Street in Swansea. We were greeted by the friendly security guards on our way in. We easily found a table. Had to scan a QR code and order via the app, which isn't great if 1 person is paying for a group as they have to pass their phone around and put the orders through one at a time. Would have been cool if we could have ordered from menus at paid on ordering or when leaving. Some events and cafe in the daytime. Parties and themed nights in the evenings. Similar vibe to Albert Hall, but more cozy in my opinion. Food was good, decent portions, but it all came at different times because we ordered from different stands/vendors. Can be expected, it's not a problem. Board games to play if the conversation runs dry
Had a few visits! Great atmosphere and plenrtynofnfood choices
Hands down my favourite restaurant in Swansea, the food is top quality. We visited today for a halloumi burger and fries from MAG and while a little on the pricey side, it felt totally justified given how fresh and tasty the meal was. I would’ve happily paid twice as much, the food was that good! Staff are always smiling and helpful whenever we visit, great atmosphere and comfortable seating. Can’t recommend this establishment enough if you’re in Swansea!
Quite a bustling vibrant atmosphere, chilled relaxed environment. Order via QR code and wait for the goodies to arrive. Service was swift. Staff friendly. Had a pint of the local IPA. Went for the tex mex food and had a mushroom veggie option which was awesome, good spice fairly warm. Loved it. Took a few minutes to be seated, sometimes it is crazy busy. You can reserve a seat as well.
Outstanding food and a great atmosphere. 4 or 5 vendors available and you order your food and drink on the app. My burger was unreal and the missus had a wrap. The mozzarella fries were also out of this world!
