Tuesday to Sunday from 5:00pm
Dinner menu
The main menu, and the one that changes most. Roughly a third of it turns over with the season; the rest stays because people would notice if it left. Everything is cooked to order in one kitchen, so a table of six will not be served in eleven minutes and we would rather say so here than apologise for it later.

What is in these dishes
Each dish above lists the allergen components it contains. These are the ones that appear on this menu:
- Cereals containing gluten
- Milk
- Egg
- Fish
- Crustaceans and molluscs
- Tree nuts
- Soya
- Sesame
- Sulphites
- Mustard
- Celery
A dish marked “made without” a component is a statement about that one component and nothing else. It is not a statement that the plate is safe for an allergy — please read the allergens page, which explains exactly why we will not make that claim about a kitchen this size.
The dish you read about may not be on. About a third of the dinner menu changes with the season, and single dishes change more often than that. This is not a marketing rhythm — it is what happens when the person doing the ordering is allowed to say the fish is not good enough this week. It has one consequence for you: the dish you read about here may not be on when you arrive. The menus on this site are updated the day they change in the kitchen, and if you are coming specifically for something, call and ask rather than trusting the page.

Book a table for dinner
Choose the date and the number of people and the form will show you the times we can genuinely seat that many. If nothing suits, the waitlist is a real list rather than a form that goes nowhere — and the bar takes no bookings at all, which is why there is usually somewhere to sit.
