I’m staying in Swansea towards the end of the month for the lions game (with a few couples) looking for somewhere to eat La Parrila has been mentioned, any good? Did this used to be on SA1?

Braz is still open at the bottom of Wind St opposite Nando's, I think anyway. Steak house place at the end of Town just after the Arcade is nice food, can't think of the name now. Rayn's will know if he reads this, Grape and Olive over the Marina is ok, worth it for the view at least. |  |

Thanks Max
Been to the grape & olive a few times it’s a Brains pub (or at least was) the menu is the same as the pub 500 metres from my house, so that’s a no go.
I’ll see if anyone offers any suggestions on this thread, staying in Morgan’s so preferably close to there. | | | |

Yes Madeira is good, right by the Hanbury on the Kingsway
I know the Bouchon de Rossi is by the arcade on Oxford St, if thats the one you're on about, then thats good too | |

I thought it was always Brains although Brains have now sold all their pubs to Marstons.
Morgan’s wasn’t booked by me. | | | |

La Parilla and the Bras always had a reputation for ‘creative billing’, food was always nice. Both Parillas have gone, Bras is still open.
I think Eleos shut a long time ago. Trundle was involved in a bar/restaurant in its place for a while.
Bistrot Pierre in Mumbles is a chain, but feels authentic. Never had bad food or service in there. | | | |

Few to try:
El Pescador, Spanish restaurant where Quay 3 used to be in the marina
Bouchon de Rossi, not been there for a while but my daughter says it's still lovely
The Pantygwydr, not tried it myself but friends rant about it
The Secret, which is the old 360...supposedly nice. Great views too
Where La Parilla used to be is another restaurant which I can't remember the name, supposedly good
River House, Kings Road SA1
There are loads of good eateries in and around the marina mate, depends on your tastes...don't forget to visit The Swigg, I believe they do tapas |  |

All of the above.
The Queens was excellent for proper pub grub but Pescador is probably the best of te bunch and you never know who might roll up there.
Did enjoy the two course meal in El Fuego mind.
Supposed to be Spanish but a spice twist (owned by Indians (Ithink) |  |

Bouchon is my favourite, and Madeira is also good.
I'm taking my mother to lunch today in the Plough and Harrow in Murton. Never been before but apparently it's been voted the best gastropub in Wales. Anyonr tried it? |  | | |

Mike Knight is the chef now in the George in Mumbles.
If you fancy seafood you could do worse, we’ve had some nice meals there since it’s reopened.
The quality is exceptional. |  |

Is it still a Brains pub or was it a Greene King pub ? | |

Good news about the George as other people were suggesting it was being turned into flats ALA the Mermaid. | |

May be wrong, but I’d guess it’s independent. Michael Knight (not that one) is pretty much a celebrity chef. Can’t see him being told what to serve. | | | |
