Our Lounge

What’s that going on behind the big blue sign in the Quays, Lakeside? Big, bold and beautiful Casco Lounge, that’s what. Step past our sprinkling of outdoor tables into a galaxy of star lights and chandeliers, comfy armchairs and velvet pouffés, where you’ll find yourself a seat to suit.

We’ve a fantastic range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten-free and vegan menus) and everyone is welcome – kids, dogs and shopped-out shoppers alike!

Home From Home

We’re your home from home in the heart of Grays. We have a varied menu, along with a separate kids, vegan and gluten free menu. Pop on down!

Why are we called Casco, we hear you ask? Well, Lakeside Shopping Centre is in West Thurrock, and the archaic translation for Thurrock is essentially the hull of a ship. Casco is hull in Portuguese… bit long-winded but we got there in the end!
