Menus

The blackboard menu evolves daily, as do the specials, with much emphasis placed on seasonal dishes and locally sourced produce. Foie gras and cheeses from France sit comfortably beside English lamb sweetbreads and treacle sponge with homemade ice cream and custard. Or if you prefer a light snack there are always organic baguettes, light salads and delicious chips to choose from.
