Local tips
- Book ahead, especially for weekends and theme nights. The intimate size means tables fill quickly, and reservations ensure you don't miss out on seasonal menus or special events.
- Check the restaurant's social media for upcoming theme nights and supper club events. These regularly changing experiences offer excellent value and a chance to explore the kitchen's creativity.
- If you have dietary requirements, mention them when booking. The team is attentive to vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free needs, with options clearly marked on the menu.
- Visit in warmer months to enjoy the garden space, which features wood-fired pizzas and cocktails—a different experience from the cosy interior dining room.
- Arrive early on Friday and Saturday evenings if you haven't booked. The restaurant closes at 10pm and 10:30pm respectively, so late arrivals may miss service.
