Food Variety and Quality
Pros:
"The burger itself was a true masterpiece. Cooked to perfection, it boasted a juicy and flavorful patty."
"Each ring was coated in a light and airy batter that provided a satisfying crunch with every bite."
"Food was sooo good! I definitely recommend the truffle pizza, it stole the show for me."
"I highly recommend anyone who's visiting this place to order that from the stand. The place is huge inside and got plenty of seating and the order arrived within few minutes."
"Whether you're having a date night, meeting friends, spending time with family or having a work night out, this is the go-to place."
"Everyone enjoyed their meals, however we ended up overdosing on Bombay fries, which wasn't a bad thing."
"I love the fact that there's a variety to choose from, Indian to Italian. A little more pricey but well worth it."
"One of the best places in Swansea to grab amazing food and great drinks."
Cons:
"My only qualm is some of the food is overpriced (in my opinion), considering size / flavor / location."
"Quick service, but very expensive. For lunch and a small ice cream each, with 1 drink each was close to £70."
"Burger tasted like a McDonald's cheeseburger. Would choose something else, if I returned."
"Prices are slightly high and my Hoisin duck pizza was blackened and burnt on the base all over."
"For £12 I got the tiniest burger I've ever had and with a patty what was no joke 2-4mm thin."
"Had a coffee and homemade brownie from the Founders bar and loved it. Like Zinco, you can order via your phone to your table and it works well for introverts."
"I had the aubergine katsu curry and some gyoza. They were absolutely banging! Best katsu I’ve ever had, aubergine cooked to perfection and gyoza were delicious!"
"Expensive burger. Go to McDonald's you get value for money. A double patty it doesn't have. These are the thinnest, penny pinching burgers I've come across."

"What a great place this is! Went in for food, lots of tables, great decor and layout and the food was impressive too."
"Food was great - came quickly, was hot and tasty. Great that the different vendors meant everyone had their own choice."
Cons:
"However, a big negative for me was a lady holding a dog over the serving area, inches from prepared food."
"Iced cream machine wasn't working. Which is fine, but then didn't bother to check that the correct refund was given, leaving us overpaying."
"Great Bar, friendly staff. The 'Food Stall' idea is great. The Japanese food is particularly good."
"Only reason I haven't given 5 stars is because we had some people in our group that struggled with ordering as either only had cash or couldn't use their phones properly."
"Called in before going to see a show. Good atmosphere and a good selection of drinks at a reasonable price."
"It's a nice place to have some good pizza, an Indian meal, and nice burgers, I wouldn't recommend you order your drink off the app cos it could take over an hour."
"The decor and atmosphere is alright but the popup thing is a bit ersatz and contrived."
"I had the aubergine katsu curry and some gyoza. They were absolutely banging! Best katsu I’ve ever had, aubergine cooked to perfection and gyoza were delicious!"
