  • Do you have a private area?

  • Do we have an outdoor area?
    Yes, we have four tables in front of the restaurant where you can enjoy your meal outdoors.
  • Can I book the whole restaurant?
    Of course! We love hosting private events. A minimum spend applies, and it depends on the day of the week. Just give us a shout, and we’ll work something out.
  • Do you have a surcharge?
    Yes, there is a 15% surcharge on public holidays. Because, well, it’s a holiday, and we’ve got to keep the lights on! And we apply 1.75% surcharge on credit card payments.

    Yes, we do! Available in 4 designs, S–XL, 100% combed cotton, classic fit, preshrunk, with reinforced seams and double-needle hems. $70 each.
