We’re incredibly sad to hear about the fire at Verdi’s this morning.

From all of us here at The Big Wheel at Mumbles Pier, we’re sending our thoughts and best wishes to everyone at Verdi’s. ❤️

Mumbles isn’t the same without this iconic local business, and we hope to see you back serving the community again very soon. 🎡

🚨 ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

Verdi’s was affected by a fire overnight.

Whilst we’re still coming to terms with what has happened, we’re relieved that nobody was injured and everyone is safe.

We’re absolutely devastated, but we’ll do everything we can to get Verdi’s back open as soon as it’s safe to do so.

We know how much the restaurant means to our team, our customers and the Swansea community, and we’re incredibly grateful for all of the messages of support already.

We’ll keep everyone updated over the coming days as we know more.

We’d like to place on record our thanks to the Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service for their swift response and professionalism.

Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support. ❤️
