Our Lounge

Drago Lounge is on the edge of the Friars Walk shopping centre, facing the river by the footbridge, right in the centre of Newport. We’re blessed with huge floor-to-ceiling windows and a great outdoor terrace out the front, perfect for watching the world – and its shoppers – go by. We serve a great range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten-free and vegan menus) served in a welcoming, laid-back environment.

The interiors are something to behold, with everything from tassel-y lampshades to our replica of the Newport Chartist Mural to a portrait of the young Tom Jones. Fighting for the emancipation of the working man or Pontypridd sex bomb – we’ve certainly got it covered.

A person holds a festive fried chicken sandwich with melted cheese, cranberry sauce for a touch of Christmas flavor, and a bacon-wrapped item on top, with a bowl of fries nearby.

Two women in festive sweaters laugh while pulling a Christmas cracker at a decorated table with candles, wine glasses, and the warm glow of a Christmas tree in the background.

Five people in festive sweaters share a holiday meal at a decorated table beside a Christmas tree, smiling and enjoying food and drinks in a cozy lounge, with candles and ornaments as table decorations.
