Zapato Lounge Café Bar, housed in a historic stone building with large white-framed windows and ornate gables, sits under a clear blue sky. A red Zapato sign and a streetlamp welcome guests at the entrance.
Two bartenders stand behind a bar, smiling and talking with a customer who is leaning on the counter. The vintage Zapato decor features patterned wallpaper, mirrors, and bottles lined up on shelves.
A cozy pub interior with people sitting at tables, chatting and drinking. One man in Zapato shoes stands taking a photo with his phone, while another drinks near the window. Warm lighting and framed pictures decorate the walls.
A chef wearing a black hat, white coat, and stylish zapatos smiles widely while holding food in a busy restaurant kitchen, with shelves of plates and another person working beside her.
A cozy, vintage-style bar with a turquoise wooden counter, colorful fringed lamps, and wooden floors. Zapato-themed artwork and posters decorate the walls as tables and chairs fill the warmly lit, eclectic space.

Our Lounge

Zapato Lounge is one crazy mixed up place. Our name is Spanish for shoe (in honour of some of Northampton’s finest exports), we’ve a Welsh motto on the front of our four-hundred year old building, we’re next door to the seventies Grosvenor Centre and overlooking the thirteenth century market square. Sheesh. Of course, when you consider our incredible range of food and drinks (including kids, gluten free and vegan menus) served in a welcoming, laid back, eclectic space – it all makes sense. Vive la différence!
