Trago Lounge in Southampton

Trago Lounge is a true culinary haven where every dish is a masterpiece. I've dined here close to ten times, and each visit has been a delightful experience. The breakfasts, rice dishes, and salads are ideal for solo dining, bursting with flavors that tantalize the taste buds. By the way, the Buddha Bowl is a must-try for vegetarians – it's not just good, it's exceptional! The service is impeccable, and the ambiance is cozy and inviting. Whether I'm with friends or enjoying a quiet meal alone, Trago Lounge is my go-to. Highly recommend for an unforgettable dining experience!

A restaurant for those who value taste and quality!

Staff always helpful and friendly

I really like the way staff engage with customers at Trago. They are always super polite, friendly, engaging and helpful. Atmosphere is also great, lighting is spot on, candles come out early evening which adds to atmosphere. Clientele is varied. We had tapas tonight which was great, also drinks were really good, especially the Cherry Bakewell cocktail. What I like most is that the cocktails are not just two sips and it’s gone. Price point is great as well. Def recommend this place

Mid food with an expensive price tag and small portion sizes

Excellent service provided for a birthday meal with family from booking to actual day. Food was amazing too

Very inconsistent. One week the food was delicious with generous portions, next week bland and left us hungry.

I have been coming to Trago Lounge for nearly 5 years (since I moved to Portswood). I started coming in with my 7 month old baby, who obviously now is 5 and the staff and food have always been outstanding. They have always made me feel welcome with a child and without. The food has got better recently in my opinion. Compliments to the chef! The flavours are excellent. I love the fact the staff turnover is very low. Any new staff always fit in brilliantly. Even if/when I move out of Portswood, I will still make an effort to come here. One of the best places in Southampton to eat and have a drink.

First visit today, very busy when we arrived for lunch. Recommended by our Granddaughter. Ordered food and drinks at our table. This was easy to do. What I liked was the fact you could make additions or changes to the drink or meals. Drinks for example with or without ice. A cheeseburger, items not required for example, no onions or other options. Ordering made simple. Despite the restaurant being almost full, our food and drinks arrived very quickly. Good food and a very good atmosphere, a real buzz

Great quirky place, service was prompt and the food was great. Highly recommend the Cherry Bakewell cocktail 🍹

Love this place .... we've visited several times. Food is excellent, nothing too much trouble for the staff and really good value.

Excellent greetings, felt very welcome immediately. Dietary requirements met with gluten free menu. Epic Fish Finger sandwich was especially tasty. Great coeliac options - Mexican Superbowl was a delicious mix of black beans guacamole and the BEST chorizo Lovely Stowford Press - thirst quenching Watermelon iced tea sweet and flavourful Will be visiting again - thank you!

Great atmosphere and fantastic food. 👏

Absolutely beautiful food, great portion sizes, fast service couldn’t be happier! 100% recommended 👍

Wonderful place. Many happy memories with my dog. Food good and reasonably priced. Comfy seating. Lovely, unusual garden out back. Friendly staff. Can’t fault it. Even has dog treats on bar.

The lounge breakfast was exceptional, service was quick and friendly and atmosphere is quite artistic and casual. Recommended for food lovers.

Excellent food and service in a delightful ambience. Very enjoyable and we will definitely return. Sat outside, which was really nice. Thank you.

Just visited tonight (Sunday evening). Excellent food and service and a delightful ambience.

Wednesday lunch time. Ordered a panini and already 30mins gone past. Still no sign. No service because you ordered online. Never come here again

Loved the vegan breakfast and iced latte 😍 🤤 Great service 💯

Great food and drinks, as well as a variety of options for dietary restrictions such as vegan and gluten free. The 'click and collect' option on their website also lets you see what's in stock in real time!

Great varied menu, all very tasty. Will return

Our experience here was excellent we were very happy how they catered for food allergies. We will definitely be returning.

A nice airy place and has an outside sitting area. The food was ok , let down by the squid and prawns both over cooked on this occasion and Service was slow and it wasn’t busy.

One of my favourite places for brunch, food great. Staff friendly

Visited here with my friend and 2 year old niece for dinner. It’s very child friendly - kid’s menu, toys and crayons available. Service is always brilliant and the staff are friendly and polite! We all enjoyed our meal and think it’s very reasonably priced. Big portions and an extensive menu!

£5.95 for a pint of IPA. BURGER was okay. But the egg in it was way under cooked, the white was raw. £20 with tip. No, I will not be going back.

Went there, multiple times. Good coffee, delicious food, lovely atmosphere, and wonderful staff. Liked the place.

We had the chicken salad and Tina melt sandwich with fries. Both were made well and delicious. As always, friendly service!

Had a super breakfast, Full Gluten Free cooked breakfast, and pancakes with bacon which was delicious, kids bean on toast with cheese which grandson enjoyed. The only reason it got knocked down was hubby had been gluten, it takes just 10/20 minutes for him to know, such a shame as he said it was really enjoyable. I know they give warnings, but I wish more care could be done. It’s simple as using the same utensils, oil in fryers/pans.

Really great food and a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere

Lively and cool atmosphere. Warm and friendly service. Tasty food. Freshly squeezed orange juice was nice.

Everything about this place is fantastic! I went with other PhD students for a social event and really enjoyed it. The food and drinks are great and they are value for money! I also particularly praised their service handling as well. I understand our orders might be quite confusing due to our diversity, but they handled it really well!

Enjoyed a lovely breakfast here, lovely atmosphere, good food, big portion, staff fab. Would return.

Great food, good price, lovely place.

All round a really chill and lovely place to visit. We tried it for the first time yesterday, and came back today! It's so refreshing to be able to have a choice of gluten free options on the menu, I'm so used to just having chips.. it's frustrating. (If you're GF you know that we are often offered branded premade frozen food that tastes like cardboard.. you won't get that experience here). Thank you Trago, our new regular spot!

The front of house staff here are super friendly and helpful. Great selection of tapas with decent sized portions and the best nasi goreng!

Popped in 2 weeks ago and had lounge eggs with smoked salmon and bang bang fried cauliflower. It was so good I went back the following week for lounge eggs with bacon and will be back again tomorrow! Absolutely lovely food and the hollandaise is amazing

Nice and cozy place. But watch out, there have been quite a few car break-ins in this area where thieves are smashing car windows.

Chips portions are tiny. Burgers nice but not really worth the price I would say!

I had the vegan burger as that’s what my friend was having and I hadn’t had a chance to look at the menu so just had the same as her. It was absolutely amazing. Would definitely have again, and I’m not vegan.

We’ve been there with friends couple days ago and absolutely loved it! We were playing games, staff were very friendly, they served food very quickly. Desserts were amazing! We spent there very good time.

Lovely, friendly but professional service. Great food, well presented, very little wait time. Easy to order and pay using QR code.

A pleasant place to meet a friend. Very helpful staff. Next time I will ask whether they have a quiet place without music for people to talk.

Welcoming atmosphere, great food and service 👌

They've just had a revamp in terms of decorating and it's absolutely gorgeous. Couldn't stop looking at the ceiling and all the gorgeous paintings. The food always at such a good quality too 🥰

Chill, cozy with good food options for vegan and gluten free

Lovely place. Can't believe it's taken us this long to find the place. Highly recommended. Had a large brakafast, was super tasty, all ingredients are good quality and cooked well. Ordered coffee and juice. Highly recommended we will be back, go early it gets busy.

Friendly staff, lovely food including loads of vegan options, and dogs are welcomed.

Good Saturday morning feel to this place. A place for the whole day (and a bar). Good service, good menu, impressive decor.

always delicious when i come here! the gluten free menu is identical to the standard menu which means an insane amount of choices!

We love this place and go regularly. It's quite busy but worth the wait for a table which never takes long as there are so many! Good tasty food with a great gluten free menu, and decent coffee too. Friendly staff and board games while waiting for the food to arrive. When it's not raining there's a cool outside area, inside the decor is Boho eclectic chic with a bit of mid century, very cool place to dine 👍

A bit overpriced for what we had

The portion of food decreases every single time I go - from 7 chips in a portion, to 2 tiny bacon rashers. It's extremely disappointing, especially considering that the food isn't cheap to begin with. Staff are nice, but I can't justify going anymore because my friends and I just felt scammed.

Friendly staff, QR or order at the bar. Nice Decor and music. Food was good.

Great menu with delicious veggie options and very friendly staff

Food here is quality, rather than fast. Nice place to eat, every so often.

Good venue however a bit pricey

Can get a little noisy when busy and pricier than other places locally

Brunch here is excellent, and there's a great atmosphere as it's very popular. Staff are very accommodating and even take extra care over allergies.

Had a wonderful breakfast. Spoilt for choice. Very good price. Friendly and helpful staff.

What a wonderful breakfast, perfect vegan scran to start the day. Lovely people and a charming restaurant.

Great night here tonight.... excellent food service and an ingenious quiz....I certainly don't know my cheeses from my service stations lol

Chilled out vibe, they do all day breakfast and other random bits like tapas, along with burgers etc. Definitely recommend. Been quite a few times, food is pretty decent (better than pub food). Fair price too. Also offer drinks (cocktails, beers etc), so its good at all times of day. Also have board games which is cool if you want to do something other than just chat!

A great atmosphere, great choice of food for all diets and all very good quality, well presented. The service here was first class which made for a great experience for the whole group.

Nice friendly place. Quick service via app, order at table. Food was good. Nice place for a Sunday lunch. Lots of options including vegan and gluten free.

Wat een leuke en gezellige pub/grand café. Leuk ingericht en heerlijk gegeten.

Very quite, nice for a pre-curry pint

Nice place to eat or have a drink. Definitely will visit again

It's just such a great place, great food and wonderfull staff. 👍👍

I was famished and I hit the jackpot ! Delicious and quick Nice feeling to this easy going place to eat , drink and hang out. And I love dogs too

Excellent poached egg, spinach and mushrooms. Great strength flat white. Will be back.

Honestly all the "Lounges" tend to be very good. We visited this one a couple of weeks back and bad a mix of all day breakfasts and burgers, paid around £10 each, plus drinks. All of the food was good, and we didn't have to book, we walked straight in and were seating straight away, the staff were very nice. (I imagine you may have to book in busier periods, this was on a weekday afternoon). Parking can be a bit of a pain as it's on Portswood High Street.

Great place to chill and good wholesome food

Awesome meals and excellent service. I will definitely come back here if I pass by it again.

Great vibe about the place. I enjoy going there regularly.

Very friendly staff and a great relaxed atmosphere. With the quick service and well balanced flavours in the food this is a place to frequent for the culinarily savvy.

Nice and cosy, good food, good service with a nice buzz to the atmosphere.

My family and I were here for a family breakfast. The service was very good, don't forget to book using the QR code on the table though. Our food came out quickly and hot. We have been a few times as it is dog friendly and have always enjoyed it. The outside area is lovely in the summer.

A reliable spot for any time of day. Breakfasts and coffee are great, as are many of the lunch and dinner dishes. Good veggie and vegan options.

Interesting menu. Catering for veggies and vegans.

Food was nice but fried egg on top of the toast made is soggy, beans in a tiny pot and no English mustard only Frenchies sweet burger mustard.

It feels like a time-travel but with professional XXI.st century service and food. Loved pur time there.

It's OK but unfortunately they have removed all the craft beers so only have lager now.

Excellent service, been using Taj for 4 years on my van and always spot on with any faults found and honest with repair charges. Luc

The place is so noisy we couldn't hear one another. It was a busy Saturday. I'd suggest to go on a quiet day or choose one of the other Lounges, which are less noisy.

All round superb! Highly recommended

Was out for brunch and left very satisfied. Ordered a few different things trying the streaky bacon sarnie and a veggie sausage sarnie too. Both were solid and the bacon sandwich had more than enough bacon in. Also went for some hash browns which were okay, just your usual hash brown really. Overall a good experience and will be going back

English breakfast!!! Very good and tasty

My first visit, taken there by friends, would seem to be a very nice cafe. Only had some tea. Nice cafe.

Really big menu, food and drinks were both great. They use one of those QR code pay-on-your-phone menus. Great place to meet friends for a bite or drink.

Lovely calm atmosphere with good service and a good selection of vegan food and AF drink options.

Best place for Brunch in Portswood

Always a pleasure to eat at any of the Lounges. I don't really understand why they make it so very dark in the evenings though, I struggled to read the menu 😂 which is my only complaint. I have the vegan breakfast every time. It's so good, I know I'll regret my choice if I have anything else 😂

5/5 it was an amazing experience to go there, the place was full but we came and got seated very quickly and then the food came within minutes of being ordered and was overall well presented and delicious!! :D

Comfortable, welcoming atmosphere, great food the portions are generous. The staff are very friendly.

Great atmosphere and very nice and attentive staff. Happy to come for brunch anytime. :)

Loved this place. Great section out back that’s outside and nicely done. Delicious food. Very easy to order too (I usually hate having to do anything involving a QR code). And service was great.

Food great and good quick service
