Timeless Cocktails | South East Asian Inspired Cuisine | Uptown Waterloo

Welcome

Lo • lo • an ... where the river meets the ocean, the waters converge, ideas and tastes are carried far on currents welling up from the sea and rushing down in mountain streams. The pool created in this meeting is a 'loloan'. A mixture of waters with many voices, from heights and depths, remembering, recreating and reflecting.

Welcome to the Loloan Lobby Bar. A place of calm and refuge in uptown Waterloo. A considered design, that harkens back to days of grace and value offering classic, timeless cocktails and lobby bar inspired house favourites, as well as South East Asian inspired lobby bar cuisine.
