Indoor dining, yoga and more to return to Wapping Wharf
As the government’s roadmap out of lockdown is underway, Bristol’s Whapping Wharf neighbourhood is on the way back to its vibrant self.
As restrictions lift, the harbourside community is offering visitors indoor dining, yoga and much more from the many independent businesses.
Whilst Bristol is encouraging people to visit the quarter’s independent businesses this summer, there are a number of precautions in order to remain safe.
New stretch tents were put in place on the upper levels of CARGO 1 and 2 to allow al fresco dining, whilst the Wapping Wharf Code includes a one-way system and signage to encourage people to keep their distance from one another and queue appropriately.

Stuart Hatton, managing director at Umberslade, the developer behind Wapping Wharf, said: “It’s been wonderful welcoming people back to the neighbourhood over the last few weeks and we are very much looking forward to seeing more businesses re-open and indoor dining able to resume from next week.”
“We thank everyone for the incredible support they have shown Wapping Wharf’s independent businesses so far and their collaboration in ensuring that the area is a safe and enjoyable place for everyone.”
