Our Lounge

You can’t miss pretty Merletto Lounge. We’re in the grand white building on the High Street, in the centre of High Wycombe. We’ve got full-height windows across the front letting the light in and a really big space stretching back to some cosy corners inside.

The town was known for making lace and chairs (but not lacy chairs), and you can spot references to this inside with the dusty pink lacy patterned wallpaper and a mighty impressive wooden chair mural behind the bar. Take a pew.

Come on in for a great range of food and drink, including dedicated menus for Little Loungers, gluten-free and vegan guests.

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.

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.
