All wines by the glass are available in 125ml measures as well as the standard serving of 175ml. Vintages are subject to availability.
Magnums (equivalent to two bottles of wine) are widely regarded as the optimum format for maturing fine wine. We source the magnums at release, cellar them in ideal conditions & list them when they are ready to enjoy.
Food allergies and intolerances; please let us know if you have any allergies or dietary restrictions as not all ingredients are listed. Our staff will provide the information you may require. The consumption of undercooked (game)or raw foods(oysters) increases the risk of foodborne illness, particularly for vulnerable groups.
Some dishes may contain nuts and/or shellfish. A discretionary 12.5% service charge, which is distributed in its entirety to our staff, will be added to your bill.
