Booking Times
Due to the size of our restaurant and service requirements, larger group bookings can usually only be accommodated at the beginning or end of our evening service. Our preferred group booking times are 5:00pm and 8:00pm. Please let us know your preferred time and we will advise on availability.
Payment
Please be aware that we are unable to split bills for group bookings. The balance must be settled in a single transaction.
Table Duration
Tables are allocated for a maximum of 2 hours from the reservation time unless otherwise agreed in advance.
Deposit Requirement
For groups of 10 guests or more, a £10 per person deposit is required to secure the booking. Deposits help protect against no-shows and late cancellations, which can prevent other guests from booking and impact staffing arrangements. The full deposit amount will be deducted from your final bill on the day of your visit.
Pre-Orders
For groups of 10 guests or more, we require a food pre-order to help ensure efficient service and minimise waiting times. A pre-order form will be sent following confirmation of your booking.
