The opening of the Waldo Lounge at the fantastic Western Quayside development in Haverfordwest has been welcomed by the Leader and Deputy Leader of Pembrokeshire County Council.

The Waldo Lounge, a relaxing café/bar, opened today (Wednesday, November 20th) following a major refit by leading hospitality company, Loungers.

Pembrokeshire County Council Leader, Cllr Jon Harvey, said: “I’m delighted to see Waldo Lounge open for business in the first tenancy for Western Quayside.

“This is a fantastic addition to the hospitality offer in Haverfordwest, enabling Western Quayside to play a key role in improving footfall and vibrancy in the town.

“An important part of Loungers’ ethos is the community element of its neighbourhood café bars and commitment to work with local groups, charities, organisations and businesses – and we look forward to that continuing in Haverfordwest."

Pembrokeshire County Council Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member  for Place, the Region and Climate Change, Paul Miller, said:  “Loungers shares our ambition and potential for the Western Quayside development in the centre of the town – and they fit perfectly into that vision.
