Our Lounge

Desco Lounge sits proudly on the edge of the impressive Parkgate Centre in the centre of Shirley. We’re a rather handsome place (if we say so ourselves), with huge floor-to-ceiling windows fronting an amazing double-height atrium space dressed with clouds of lovely light shades. We’ve a fantastic range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten-free and vegan menus) served across our two light and airy floors with a great little terrace out the front.

All this and practically a whole herd of taxidermy on the stairs. Careful if you say you’re “feeling stuffed” after one of our burgers…

A person picks up a French fry from a plate with fried chicken, fries in a blue bowl, coleslaw, and dipping sauce. A drink with ice sits nearby on a colorful checkered table.
A plate with avocado toast topped with poached eggs, pickled onions, and herbs sits on a marble table, next to a fork and knife. Another plate with hash browns and beans is partially visible.
A yellow coffee cup with latte art on top sits on a red saucer with a spoon, placed on a wooden table; a green floral-patterned cushion is visible beside the table.
