Lola Lo - Derby

Derby, United Kingdom

Created (April 2014) in the former site of Coyote Wild in Victoria Street, this 800-capacity bar covered the ground and first floors, featured two bars, an Island Grill diner, a spacious dance floor and an upstairs tropical garden -- totaling up to 22,259 sq ft. CheekyTiki's sister company, CT Creative Ltd., did the design work and worked over the course of several weeks to make a space where guests entered through a real sunken ship to be greeted with a tropical arboretum of hanging plants, and a flock of 52 mirror ball carrying parrots over the dance floor. It was one of, if not the largest spaces they had done up to that point for the Lola Lo chain.

Closed August, 2017 and was replaced by Bar Soba (which only lasted a single year) before being converted into office space by a new design firm.
