There’s New Life in the Old Dog!

A lot has happened over the past twelve months, including the refurbishment of this old classic into an exciting new Café, Bar and Restaurant with a modern industrial look. The Hound Lounge, as it is now known, offers a spacious, relaxing environment to meet up for a coffee, have breakfast, lunch or dinner. The extensive menus cater for all, including a good selection of Vegetarian, Vegan and Gluten Free dishes, with weekly specials too! General Manager, Fergus, said: “It’s an exciting new chapter for both me and this stunning property and I am looking forward to creating a friendly, relaxed, sociable experience for the community and, in turn, support our local suppliers, producers and charities. It’s a brave move to open in such difficult times, but I very much hope the local community will support us and help The Hound Lounge grow into an asset for the Town.”
