The former Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff Bay is going to be turned into a permanent food court filled with rainbow-coloured shipping containers from the team behind the successful Depot streetfood warehouse.
Tiger Yard, found on Heol Porth Teigr, will create bars, kitchens and seating areas using 25 rainbow-coloured shipping containers and will hold a total of 1,000 covers with a seating plan which includes three covered dining areas. The plan is for the venue to be open Wednesday to Sunday, every week and the team are hoping to launch this June.
There's no word on who will be serving food and drink out of the containers yet, but as soon as we know we'll update readers. The Depot team hopes to announce the full trader line-up for Tiger Yard in May, and throw open the doors the following month.

Peter Cro, Director at DEPOT Group explained: “We are really excited about this opportunity to bring something different to Cardiff Bay, which has long been dominated by the bigger chains. We’re hoping to attract a truly local collection of chefs, restaurateurs and traders to occupy our custom-built shipping container kitchens – and bring a taste of independent Cardiff to the Bay.”
