Gareth Bale's golf bar to open next month

Par 59, the St Mary Street bar, restaurant and mini-golf concept backed by Gareth Bale, will open its doors on 18 March.

The entertainment concept is the result of a partnership between the Real Madrid footballer's company Elevens Group LTD and The Depot, an independent Welsh entertainment brands.

When it opens in March, phase one of the venue will include 4,000 sq ft of bar space, and two nine-hole mini golf courses, which have been custom designed for the venue. 

Local street food traders Dirty Bird have created a new dine-in menu especially for the venue. 'Dirty Birdie' will serve up a menu of buttermilk fried chicken dishes, along with vegan options for up to 164 covers at a time.

“In partnership with Elevens Group LTD, we have been able to transform a city centre site which had previously lain empty since 2016," says Nick Saunders, founder and managing director of The Depot. "We’re really proud of the fact that by working with local suppliers we have been able to put revenue back into the local economy during a global pandemic. Once open, Par 59 will also provide new employment opportunities for 45 staff.”
