A bright new eatery has just opened in Gorseinon - and has already been met with a positive reaction from locals. 'The Junction Bar & Kitchen' has opened upstairs at the Gorseinon Events Centre (known by some as the "GEC") in Gorseinon High Street and is cooking up a storm with delicious fry-up breakfasts and mouth-watering burgers, with loaded fries set to be added to the menu very soon.
The events centre itself was originally built as a cinema in the early 1900s but, as the years have passed, has evolved into a multi-purpose indoor events arena, which now welcomes a mixture of well-known names and up-and-coming performers and DJs. The venue has two events spaces, two bars, a recording studio and a "DJ tuition room" with access to an extensive vinyl library. For more stories about Gorseinon, go here.
The GEC first began serving meals during the pandemic. Staff members cooked them in the venue's then-small kitchen, for delivery and takeaway. Public demand grew very quickly, staff say, so management soon added a full-kitchen and a seating area post-lockdown.
