Francisco Lounge

Carlo Lounge is at the heart of the Queen’s Walk development in East Grinstead. Our floor to ceiling windows along the front light up the airy space inside, with some cosier corners tucked away further back. The interior is all smart tiles, rich wallpapers and paintings galore, with clouds of tassel-y lampshades, proper chandeliers and industrial lights above it all. We’re named in honour of the carol Good King Wenceslas, which was written in East Grinstead. Which is also why we make sure our Toasted Teacakes are deep and crisp and even.

What’s that going on behind the green door? Fuego Lounge, that’s what. Behind our handsome green facade is a really welcoming, relaxed open plan space where we serve a fantastic range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten free and vegan menus). Our big windows wrap right around the corner and there’s a sprinkling of outdoor chairs and tables, just perfect for watching the Lewes world go by.

Where to start with Alcampo Lounge? There’s just too much. We’re a big, beautiful place with a great range of food and drink including kids, gluten free and vegan menus, we’ve a lovely terrace and we’ve a massive sign that says “Circus” sourced from Drew Pritchard the lovely Salvage Hunters man. Oh and we’re proud to be a registered Happy Café, a movement based around the simple idea of “a friendly and welcoming place to meet other people with a shared interest in promoting happiness and wellbeing.” Now that just about sums us up.
