A classic New York Sour balances whiskey, lemon and subtle sweetness beneath a float of red wine. Bright, velvety and a little dramatic, it’s the kind of cocktail that lingers long after the first sip.

The choux bun catches a lot of people off guard.

On the menu, it reads simply, with celeriac, parmesan and truffle. Nothing overly descriptive. Then it arrives.

One bite in, and everything changes — it’s rich, savoury, unexpected. The kind of dish people end up talking about long after the table’s been cleared.

As the seasons shift, so do the rhythms of the restaurant. Throughout June, our team will be taking a few well-earned breaks, which means Solera will be closed Sunday nights, and Friday 12 June for a private function.

We’ll still be open Tuesday to Saturday.

Comment ‘book’ and we’ll help make sure that night out you’ve been planning is in the diary.

Our menu evolves, shaped by the seasons, conversations with suppliers, and the ideas that emerge through research, travel and curiosity.

For Head Chef .bryson_, new dishes often begin as a loose thought or ingredient. From there, he and owner .j.potts refine, taste and rework each element until it earns its place on the menu.

A few recent additions:
- White Anchovy - burnt tomato, crouton
- Tuna Tart - citrus, guindilla, buffalo curd
- Kingfish - cured fillet, chorizo dressing, spring onion
- Duck - smoked breast, duck parfait, burnt mandarin, witloof
- Veal - treacle marinated picanha, smoked quince, beetroot

As always, we can’t wait to host you. Comment ‘book’ to reserve your table.
