About
Opening every day between 9:30 and midday, to late at night, Watershed's cafe and bar offer delicious homemade cakes & pastries, lunch, lite bites, and evening meals, all following a simple policy: stay fresh, local and seasonal.
Enjoy their food, get some drinks in with friends, or relax with a coffee and use the free wi-fi – the choice is up to you.
Watershed has an ethical, sustainable approach to food. Their food menu includes vegan and vegetarian dishes, plus a children's menu and their famous Watershed nachos. The food is full of flavour and goodness and sourced from people they know and trust in the South West, and the ethically sourced menu means that their organic food comes straight from local suppliers onto your plates! Proudly serving food that hasn’t had to travel hundreds of miles to get here. It's something Watershed are really passionate about - and that passion is reflected in everything they do.
You can also take a seat at Undershed, Watershed's outside bar on the Harbourside walkway.
Access
The building is accessible, customer facing staff have received basic BSL and Deaf awareness training and there is an accessible programme of screenings and events. Watershed has both gender neutral and gender specific toilets as well as two accessible toilets.
The toilets in the top foyer are for everyone - some of the fully enclosed cubicles have a sink and mirror in them, some are ambulant (a bit more spacious with supports such as grab rails) and there is also a large family room with plenty of room for a buggy. Just through the Café & Bar are separate male and female toilets.
Sustainability
We are committed to minimising the environmental impact of our activities, ensuring sustainability is a strategic priority so we can work towards a brighter, fairer future.
