It has been the capital of Swansea's party scene for generations. If you mention the name Wind Street to anyone across the city, and people much further afield, their thoughts will probably turn to wild nights out and scenes of drunken antics which only get more lively the later into the evening it gets.
The bar crawl layout of the street has been its identity and part of its appeal for many years, ever since it became the city's new party quarter, with people hopping between their favourite pubs and clubs, creating memories and marking special moments in their lives, whether it be meeting their husband or wife, celebrating a special birthday party or having their hen or stag do.
But many feel that dynamic is beginning to change. In recent times, a much wider variety of businesses have begun opening and they are slowly changing the feel and look of the street. Founders & Co, for instance, inside the former Revolution, provides a different atmosphere with its coffee bar, bar, dining hall, retail shop and private events room. We've also seen the arrival of Social Dice, a new cafe and bar boasting over 400 board games for people to play. And there's more restaurants and 'order to the table' options than ever before.
