A modern yet rustic bar & bistro
The Cegin Glo Bar & Bistro is located in the heart of Zip World Tower, surrounded by not just unique adventures, but a rich and interesting history too. Everyone is welcome at this modern yet rustic bar where heritage meets great food and drink.
Cegin Glo Bar and Bistro boasts floor-to-ceiling views of the Phoenix zip line, Tower Coaster and the stunning Rhigos mountain range beyond. With an exclusive, locally-sourced menu, you can kick back and tuck into delicious Welsh cuisine, or grab a quick snack before your adventure.
Cegin Glo’s modern yet rustic style is the perfect setting to compliment the site’s rich history as a former coal mine, and references to its prolific past can be seen in every nook and cranny. The impressive bar boasts a Tower replica structure that sits in the middle of this stylish space, with a vast range of soft and alcoholic beverages available. Tea and Dutch Courage aplenty!
The name itself, pronounced ‘Keg-in Glorr’, is Welsh for ‘Coal Kitchen’, chosen for its nod to the site’s former use, blending with the new era – this was chosen by a resident local to Zip World Tower, Paul Williams.
