Operator: Greene King
Singleton Park, Mumbles Rd, Sketty, SA2 8PY (View on Google Map)

A national chain run pub and restaurant, situated in a nice spot alongside the boating lake in the lower part of the very large Singleton Park and adjacent to the Swansea University. A large single story building with an open plan interior. It offers one real ale that changes, but is likely to be from the Greene King range, plus an occasional seasonal guest ale. It is popular with students due to its cheap meals. However it is a relatively quiet pub.

There is a quite large, but very busy, council run pay and display car park immediately behind the pub. Which is often patrolled by council traffic wardens. The pub has no control over the operation of this car park. There are two public electric charging points available.

Information for this venue is provided by the Swansea Branch of CAMRA
