If you want to meet up with friends and socialise over a coffee on an evening in Swansea, it can be really hard to find somewhere to go - that's what business owner Gurinder 'Inder' Singh told us when we asked what led to him opening a new late-night coffee shop and bar in the city centre. Whilst Swansea boasts a wide range of restaurants and bars serving food and drinks until the early hours, before he opened his business, the only place that served coffee late at night was McDonalds, he said.
With this in mind, Inder wanted to set up a business where people could go and relax with their friends and enjoy a cup of coffee on an evening and while the hours away. 'Chuckaboo' - which means 'close friend' in Victorian English - is now open on The Strand in Swansea city centre.
Its front area operates as a coffee shop serving hot drinks from 6pm to midnight, whilst its back area and outdoor space serves as a bar area for those who fancy a drink or two close enough to Wind Street to go there afterwards for a night out but far enough away to have a more relaxed atmosphere.
