Happy Mother’s Day 💐

We’re completely fully booked today and just wanted to say a huge thank you. It honestly means the world that so many of you have chosen to celebrate your mums and special people with us.

Our little team can’t wait to welcome you all in and make sure every mum (and mum figure) feels properly looked after today.

See you soon

January Opening Hours Update ✨

Firstly… Happy New Year! 🥂
We haven’t had chance to say it properly yet, but we’re heading into 2026 feeling incredibly grateful.

The love and support over our first few months has completely blown us away — thank you for filling our tables, spreading the word and backing us from the very start (we’re a little exhausted, but in the best way).

So, for this weekend (Fri / Sat / Sun) we’re pressing pause on dinner service and will be closing at 6pm, just to give the team a breather.

👉 Next week we’re back open as usual, with one last hurrah of dinner service, before we take a short holiday.

📆 Holiday closure: w/c 12th January (closed for the full week)
📆 Back open as normal from: 18th January

Thank you for backing us, filling our tables and making these early months so special. We can’t wait to come back rested, recharged and ready for what’s next 🤍
