Ease into the evening with a cold tipple and a few plates to share 🥂

Trade the midweek rush for an evening in the garden - our bar snacks are ideal for those days when you fancy something a little lighter than dinner, but every bit as enjoyable.

See you after work?

Dogs are always welcome, inside and out. Think your dog deserves a spot on our feed? Tag us in your next visit.
