Vegetarian options are equally creative, featuring items like wild mushroom and truffle arancini or BBQ hispi cabbage with miso butter. Desserts include delicacies like chocolate mousse and cherry tahini ice cream, alongside a selection of Welsh cheeses.Emphasis on Natural Wines and Local Drinks
Complementing the food is a carefully curated selection of natural wines from emerging importers, enhancing the farm-to-fork ethos.
