Enjoyed a delicious lunch with friends. The staff were extremely attentive, friendly and knowledgeable about the food. A lovely warm glowing wood burner was very welcoming on a cold day. I look forward to revisiting again soon.

We enjoyed some sharing small plates; hi-light being the curry wurst! Absolutely delicious, especially with the wonderful German larger. My dish of sea bass with red curry broth was delightful; perfectly cooked fish with a beautiful spicy aromatic sauce; really tasty!
