Swansea city centre has a new place to enjoy coffee – and to take in some great art.
The new café is based at the council-run Glynn Vivian Art Gallery.
It’s being run by the people behind the successful HQ Urban Kitchen which has operated nearby in Orchard Street since 2022 and which remains open.
Entry to the gallery is free and the café is open Tue-Sun 10am-4pm.
Cabinet member Elliott King said: “This welcoming new facility in the fantastic Glynn Vivian offers another chance to enjoy the city centre and to enjoy great art.”
HQ Urban Kitchen manager Laura Reynolds said: “We’re thrilled to have opened a new cafe in the Gynn Vivian. It’s a brilliant city centre location and cultural venue.”
The Glynn Vivian is a centre of excellence for the visual arts. It plays a vital role in the ecosystem of arts across Wales and beyond.
HQ Urban Kitchen, in Swansea city’s centre’s former main police station, is driven by Swansea-based Urban Foundry that promotes an inclusive, equitable and regenerative economy.
