Our Lounge

Manzano Lounge brings the classic atmosphere of a Lounge to Rayleigh High Street. We may be biased, but the colour scheme and vibe of Manzano make it one of our most unique lounges yet.

You can expect a great selection of food and drink, including dedicated menus for Little Loungers, gluten-free and vegan guests. You can also expect daily deals, regular events, dog treats and plenty to do for all ages.

Wondering where our name came from? Manzano means apple tree… have a Google of Rayleigh Waves and see if you can connect the dots!
