Lounge

The exterior of Tambo Lounge Café Bar features a brick facade, large black-framed windows, colorful chairs, Tambo-branded red and green tables, and decorative flower boxes on tables just outside the entrance.

A cozy room with floral wallpaper, framed paintings, a red cushioned bench with patterned pillows, a long table, and four chairs; vintage lamps and a Tambo fire extinguisher add to the eclectic decor.

A cozy, warmly lit bar with vintage décor, a yellow wooden Tambo counter, shelves of bottles and glassware, hanging globe lights, and colorful menus placed on round wooden tables in the foreground.

A cozy tambo-inspired pub interior with floral wallpaper, wooden beams, and a mix of wooden tables and chairs. Warm lighting and framed pictures decorate the walls, creating a welcoming atmosphere.

Our Lounge

Tambo Lounge is part of the historic and beautiful Victorian Buttermarket (hence the dairy link in our name), by the Town Hall in the heart of Newark. It’s a big space that stretches back to some cosy corners inside, with a terrace out in the handsome atrium of the Buttermarket itself – perfect whatever the weather. We serve a great range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten free and vegan menus) in a relaxed, laid back atmosphere, surrounded by quite the most spectacular floral print wallpaper – bloomin’ lovely.
