Mexican restaurant in Uplands announces its sudden closure

A Swansea restaurant has announced it has suddenly closed.

Calaca Kitchen, in Uplands, issued a statement on Wednesday night explaining that it was time "to sign off" as they thanked the customers who had visited since it opened in 2018.

Last year, the Mexican restaurant, based in Uplands Crescent, relaunched as a bar following a "difficult" few months as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. The venue began operating with a reduced food menu and introduced a new drinks menu, as well as a bar area inside.

Now, a statement shared on the business's Facebook page thanked customers for the "amazing support" they had received over the years.

It read: "Sadly it’s time for us at Calaca to sign off and thank you all for the incredible memories that were made over the past few years (maybe not this last year!).

"Above anything else we started our journey with a passion for great Mexican food and we wanted to share that passion with as many people as we could. For us Calaca was not just about the food, but the people that came through the door and the memories that were made. Calaca is nothing without the amazing team, customers and suppliers we met during our time... from the heart, thank you.

"We’d like to put a shout out to all the other independent Mexican businesses out there and hope our customers can offer up some of the amazing support we were lucky enough to receive. As much as we’re sorry to go, we feel very lucky to have shared Calaca with you. We’ve loved every minute, muchas gracias. Calaca out, Viva México."
