Suns out ☀️ It might be winter, but we’ve got the perfect little spot for hot drinks and food if you’re out and about today. Dogs welcome too 🐾

It’s Friday night! 🙌
We have cocktails 🍸 and gorgeous food.
And we’re open until 11pm.

And here’s the details of our first event for 2026!
This Valentine’s Day menu offers a three-course dining experience priced at £34.95 per person, designed with indulgent, comforting dishes perfect for a romantic night out.

The meal begins with a choice of starters, including a rich Stilton and broccoli soup finished with cream and cracked black pepper, a warm baked camembert infused with garlic and rosemary and served with crusty bread, or a smooth chicken liver pâté accompanied by toasted brioche and red onion chutney.

For the main course, diners can choose from a creamy mushroom and truffle linguine, a pan-seared salmon fillet paired with dauphinoise potatoes and tender asparagus, or upgrade to a fillet steak (with a £5 supplement), served with chunky chips, peas, onion rings, and a rich jus.

Dessert options lean sweet and classic: a silky vanilla crème brûlée with a caramelised sugar top, a warm chocolate fudge brownie with vanilla ice cream, or a moist red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting.

The menu is available across three dates — the 13th, 14th, and 15th of February 2026 — making it ideal for couples celebrating Valentine’s Day on or around the date.
