Wines of the Season – Winter Selection

Chenin Blanc ‘Les Marnes’, Château de Tracy, France 2023
This delightful Loire white offers an elegant bouquet of white flowers and ripe fruit, complemented by hints of crunchy almond. On the palate, it’s bright and crisp, with yellow fruit and floral notes leading to a sapid, refreshing finish.

La Chaussynette, Mas de Boislauzon, France 2022
A beautifully layered red with aromas of black cherries, fresh raspberries, pepper, and delicate floral hints. Medium-bodied with a rich, velvety mouthfeel and exceptional length, it’s perfect for the season.

Indulge in these refined selections this winter.

Table Allocation

We try to accommodate all requests for seating, however, requests for tables are always allocated on a “first come first served” basis from the date when the initial booking was made, therefore it may not always be possible.

We do not reserve specific tables, as we might require to change table layout to accommodate all reservations, but will always do our best to ensure that requests are taken into consideration when doing seating plan.

Table size

We regret that the largest party we can accommodate in the restaurant on one table is 8 guests. We do recommend that you call us on +44 (0)20 7399 1020 directly to check availability, as an alternative solution may be found.

We may request that larger tables choose from a restricted menu, dependant on the size of the party, the precise date and the time of the reservation.                   

Group Reservations & Private Dining

The restaurant is not available for private hire; however, we do have a small private dining room for up to 8 people and it is open seven days a week.

There is a £50 hire charge for booking our private dining room.

Groups of more than 8 people will be seated on separate tables for Lunch and Dinner. Maximum number for any reservation is 16 (two tables of 8). 48 hours prior notice is required for private dining room bookings.

Allergies and Dietary Requirements

Prior knowledge of any allergies or dietary requirements are very important to us in order to ensure we accommodate individual concerns.

Information regarding any allergens that may be contained within any of our dishes can be made readily available and we would ask that you raise any concerns with a member of the Dining Room team at the time of ordering.
