    I've also been here many times too: for coffee with friends and also to have a stall at an…read moreexhibition a couple of times. I enjoyed looking at the second hand books in the back part of the cafe as well. I wish there was a bit more choice in the cafe, but it's OK for coffee and a cake. Quite an interesting place to visit, though a fair walk from the town centre.

    I've attended various functions/events here…read more It's a very nice venue for a wedding - the room on the first floor is quite large and the huge windows give it a light and airy feel. The balcony area overlooking the room is quite nice as it allows guests to break away from the hurly-burly and sit and chat or simply watch the goings-on below. I've also attended a few exhibitions in the same room. The balcony area allows you to view from above too which I think is a nice touch. The Dylan Thomas museum downstairs is worth a look - it's not a huge exhibition but quite fascinating (worth reading are the letters from one of Dylan's friends to another describing the poet's final days). The gift shop is tiny but worth a peek. Items for sale are a little classier (and more expensive) than your average museum shop. The corridor leading from the foyer regularly houses small exhibitions of paintings or photographs. The coffee/book shop is certainly my favourite part of the centre. One half houses a large selection of second-hand books - a real treasure trove and a must if you have an hour or two to spare. The coffee shop area offers a tempting selection of teas and coffees, home made cakes and light lunches. I sometimes attend work meetings here and it's a real treat to have some lunch here before going back to work.

    Swansea Market

    Swansea Market, with a history dating back to the year 1100 (not a typo), is an interesting mix of…read morethings you never knew you needed under one roof. Here you'll find prepared food, fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh fish and meats, bakeries, antiquities, clothing, computer repair, books, electrical tools, fishing tackle, duct tape, keys, and products to fix things around your home. It's like a farmer's market crossed with a mall, a food hall, and a whole bunch of other things that defy categorization. It's also a must-see on any visit to Swansea. There's really no equivalent in your town, wherever that may be. Here at Swansea Market I was able to sample things that are billed as foods of Wales and I learned why Welsh cuisine has not swept my nation. Fresh cockles are good but no better than fresh clams. Traditional Welsh Cakes are dry and floury. And laverbread? Whew, laverbread is an acquired taste. Looking somewhat like cold creamed spinach, laverbread has an unpleasant texture and tastes of what's left of the sea after the tide goes out. Swansea Market is a great place to spend an hour or so and, in so doing, one can't help but wish there was something like this in their home town. Literally everything, under one roof.

    There are some parts of Swansea market that feel like they haven't changed since the war, and other…read moreparts less so. I think it is a great example of a classic British market, with stalls selling an enormous range of goods from mostly independant retailers. It's the largest indoor market in Wales, and has a rather impressive glass roof which allows it to be so light indoors that you get the feeling of being outside without the risk of being rained on. There are several entrances, and each one gives you a different feeling for the market. The entrance situated by the fishmongers has the most distinctive aroma. A great place to pick up local things, particularly foods. The welsh cakes are baked fresh all day at the bakery stalls, the fish caught locally, and you can even buy those famous Welsh staples of cockles and lavabread. Also there's a host of Welsh cheeses and meats (of course, Welsh lamb is to be prized - the sheep are well looked after). Lots of fresh fruit and vegetables to be found here too. Here's a tip - it's a good place to find cheap (but still nice) greetings cards. I always find I'm outraged paying 2 or 3 pounds for a card from Clinton's, but in the market stalls you can get a decent card for under a pound, and they also sell celebratory paraphernalia - like ornamental keys for 21st birthdays, banners, badges etc. all for a very reasonable price. There's plenty of opportunity for gift buying here too, with unusual shops selling quirky things, as well as local crafts, jewellery, bookshops, babywear, loads of clothes shops, accessories You can get almost anything you need to buy at Swansea market, with the knowledge that you are supporting local trade and getting a bargain all at once.
