The Health Hut

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.

Carro Lounge is in the heart of the Cwmbran Centre, next to the Congress Theatre and overlooking Gwent Square. There’s a large terrace with plenty of outdoor seating and really big floor to ceiling windows running all along the front, bringing the light in to our lovely space inside. Our interiors have the most spectacular floral wallpaper, vintage lights and a riot of pictures and paintings. And our name? Carro is Italian for ‘wagon’, in honour of the mighty Wagon Wheel, made nearby at the Burton’s Biscuits factory. Yes, wheely.
