This Pub is Closed Long Term

This venue just on the edge of Swansea's main pub and nightlife quarter, has held many names and themes in the past, and has been returned to its more usually known name of the Strand Bar. When seen in July 2026, it has been partially stripped out internally, although a bar and its rear stage remain.

It was put up for auction with Paul Fosh Auction House in April 2026, but did not sell. It was also put into the May 2026 auction and despite some bids again remained unsold!

This article, dated 13 May 2026, in the local News website WalesOnline has more information.
