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…
