a cook stacking bowls on the pass during service

how many of you?

for groups of 10 to 30. from 24 guests, the room is yours alone.

a rough number is fine.

twelve of you, sharing the room with other guests.

you can also have the whole room, with a minimum spend. we'll confirm the amount when we reply.

26 seats, and 4 more at a private dinner.

everything we cook is plant-based.

the price depends on the menu, the drinks and whether the room is yours alone. work out a rough figure here, then tell us what else you have in mind.

the room

no single table seats everyone, but in a room this small it hardly matters. we set a few long tables close together, near enough to talk across.

book the whole room and there's space for thirty.
