Our Lounge

Welcome to Valero Lounge, standing strong in the heart of Newland Street, Witham. Once a rather grand Midland Bank (with a vault, still keeping the beer safe), it’s now a spot for great food, good company, and a warm, relaxed atmosphere. With gorgeous paintings inside and a nod to the Knights Templar on the roof terrace, there’s plenty to take in.

Oh, and fun fact, Valero comes from the Latin ‘valere’, meaning to be strong – seems fitting for a place with history in its bones!
