Burger King aims to open in Swansea's Parc Tawe more than two years after being rejected

The owners of Parc Tawe retail park in Swansea city centre want to see a Burger King drive-thru restaurant open up on the site. Centurion has submitted a request to Swansea Council for planning permission to develop the new drive-thru fast-food outlet near Costa Coffee in the car park area.

It's understood extensive works would have to take place, including excavating the ground to construct the foundations of the new building and removing some trees, but the new 2,800 square foot development would offer another dining choice for shoppers and visitors to the area and would also house 10 electric vehicle charging bays.

If approved, Burger King would be the first fast food outlet to open in Parc Tawe retail park - though there are various other eateries there including Denny's diner, india india Indian restaurant, Double Zero ice-cream shop and Treatz dessert cafe. Other businesses and venues at Parc Tawe include a bowling alley, Flashpoint indoor climbing centre, Ninja Warrior activity venue, Barnardo's charity shop, B&M food and homeware shop and Plantasia tropical zoo which has recently announced it will be launching the 'world's biggest escape room of its kind' next month.
