In photos: the first look inside Gareth Bale’s new Bristol bar

By Martin Booth  Friday Dec 9, 2022

Welsh football superstar Gareth Bale is one of the co-owners of Par 59, which officially opened on Friday

Situated on Millennium Promenade in the Harbourside, Par 59 offers not just food and drink but also two nine-hole custom-built mini golf courses as well as four interactive darts oches.

Golfers can tee off in groups of between one to four, with the nine holes taking around 30 to 40 minutes to complete.

Giant playing cards feature as obstacles on this hole

The space is split almost evenly between a bar and the 18 holes of mini golf

Par 59 is above Lane 7

Holes have various themes and include giant pool balls, playing cards and an arcade machine.

The second Par 59 after the Cardiff original is located above Lane 7 and is accessed via a flight of stairs or lift, with two bouncers guarding the door on opening day.

Gourmet fried chicken at Par 59 is provided by Dirty Birdie

This hole is called ‘duck shoot’

Holes come in a variety of colours
