Our Lounge

Fancy getting married, a good read and then some of the best food and drink around? Then Verso Lounge could be just the place for you, as we’re right next door to the Stafford registry office and library — perfect! Our great range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten-free and vegan menus) is served in a welcoming, laid-back, light and airy space with huge floor-to-ceiling windows and an outdoor terrace, just perfect for watching those newlyweds and librarians go by.

And here’s a fun fact – Stafford has been home to two Poet Laureates, Emily Rose Galvin and Carol Ann Duffy, so it’s only fitting that Verso means verse.
