About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Innovative
Great for fine wines

Hiraeth; a term unique to Wales and Welsh culture, an intangible pull on the heart that conveys a deep sense of belonging, the desire to return to the place of one’s birth, to come home. For The Shed Restaurant and Executive Chef Jonathan Woolway, our place in the world is happily Swansea.
Composed along the expanse of Swansea Bay, flanked by the Gower Peninsula and Brecon Beacons, within striking distance of the fertile valleys, coastal plains and farmland of West Wales, the Waterfront City of Swansea sits at the beating heart of nature’s larder. Bounties of the season from land, sea and pasture are at our fingertips.
Our daily changing menus reflect a constant creative evolution, making use of local produce at the very place and moment of their seasonal prime. This begins in the kitchen and is realised at the table; Egalitarian, convivial and accessible to all. Full in heart and generous of spirit.

We loved everything about our evening at The Shed. We arrived a bit early so had a leisurely glass of wine in their Wine Room (not really a room, but a nice spot to imbibe while watching everything going on). The restaurant space itself is open and inviting; gently lit; not too noisy. It was a relatively quiet night (a Thursday) so plenty of opportunity for relaxed exchanges with the barman and the very talented woman overseeing front of house. The food was excellent -- we particularly enjoyed the grilled sardines with mint (a special that evening) and the superb red mullet. An excellent experience from start to finish.

Lovely lunch Very quiet there but excellent service and beautifully prepared dishes. Imaginative menu too with interesting Welsh ingredients. Icing on the cake was the free bubbly which they kindly provided to celebrate a birthday….Lovely touch.

Excellent Sunday lunch; beautifully cooked lamb, and maybe the best ever gravy - a huge boatful too, and proper mint sauce. Fantastic mussels and fishcake too and delicious puds. The best Sunday lunch in Swansea, without doubt.

Sadly, my family and I were disappointed by the quality of the food given the price charged. Expected something special, for a special occasion but in our opinion it was just average. Elaborate menu pitty the food didn't match. Interior deco ok, needs some softening to create more ambience & atmosphere.

Had a wonderful meal last night - the spicy margherita cocktail was delicious. We would like to have tried the braised beef special however this had sold out. The fish, cauliflower cheese was delicious. We couldn’t decide which dessert to go for - choc dessert was scrumptious! The staff were helpful snd attentive. Wish this restaurant well go and support it!
