New ownership of the Buttermarket
Newark’s Buttermarket and Royal Exchange is now owned and managed in partnership by Newark and Sherwood District Council and Newark Town Council.
A phased plan of action is underway that will see new long term retail, food and drink and high street services coming to the building.
We see the iconic Buttermarket as playing a major and strategic role in boosting the town’s retail, cultural and leisure offer.
Our plans
Popular national restaurant/bar chain Lounges will be taking up a key tenancy at Newark’s Buttermarket!
Coming 4 March 2020
Lounges is will open up to customers soon, heralding an exciting new era for the building.
Work is currently being carried out to re-fit a third of the building into the new café with the remainder of the building being redeveloped for a new retail and commercial offering.
The restaurant will serve a whole variety of food from breakfast, lunch, tea, and dinner and with a licensed bar will be open through to late evening, boosting the night-time economy.
