The opening of Sosban has been the culmination of a three-year journey that has been characterised by immense dedication from a host of individuals.
Situated in a Grade II listed building and located on Llanelli’s North Dock, the redevelopment of the building was undertaken by Bendigo 9-10, a company formed by Wales and British Lions rugby internationals Stephen Jones and Dwayne Peel, construction entrepreneur Robert Williams and restaurateur and food broadcaster Simon Wright.
Completed in 1900, the building once provided hydraulic power for the operation of the docks. When the docks were closed it became home to a string of light industrial uses before falling into disrepair and decay.
A testament to the detailed and beautiful engineering of the Victorian era, the building is a wonderful monument to the proud industrial heritage of the area.
Now a 100-cover restaurant, we serve a menu built on the best of Welsh produce in the dramatic surroundings of a building dominated by a 90ft stone tower that can be seen from miles around.
