Cute environment - great service - but please … 1 bottle of rose and a charcuterie platter for nearly 100£ … I know this is London and everything is expensive nowadays but THIS is kind of a joke. Except the value - the wine bar is top and the staff were very welcoming.

Great food but minuscule portions. Service was very good, attentive and charming. Nice place but the prices are ridiculous. £37 for a single octopus tentacle and a small bowl of peas… really! And don’t get me started on the wine mark ups

Hi David, Thank you for your feedback. We are really happy you had a nice time with us. I just wanted to correct one detail, our Octopus is priced at £29. Indeed, £37 would have been too expensive.

We recently dined at this establishment and encountered an issue with our wine bill. We selected bottles listed at £54 each on the wine list provided to us, which also matched the prices on their online menu. However, we were charged £62 each based on a different wine menu that we were never shown. This discrepancy was quite frustrating, as we expected to be charged according to the menu we chose from. I hope this feedback helps improve their communication and transparency regarding pricing in the future.
