About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for brunch
  • Great for outdoor dining
The Garden restaurant is now open and we can’t wait to welcome you in!

Our beautiful walled garden is a sun trap in the summer and is heated and covered in the winter for al fresco dining all year round. We also have lots of inside seating and a private dining room. Our outdoor garden tables are not bookable online during the winter - please add a note to your booking or contact us if you would like one.

Open 7 days a week for breakfast, lunch & dinner. Serving our own blend barista coffee, cocktails and an evening cicchetti menu using seasonal and locally sourced produce - and yes, a few extra special pizzas will still feature!

We hope to see you soon!

    I had the vegan breakfast for brunch and couldn't fault it, delicious and a good plate full for a good price. My only criticism was the 'mugerita' for brunch is a fab idea and was tasty but was like 3/4 full of ice so I felt a bit overcharged for that. Lovely courtyard, quirky and quaint - will definitely return.

    Love this place. Super friendly staff and delicious food. We had brunch here and nothing was too much trouble. Generous portions. We had to wait a while as they were busy but the drinks came quickly and they did manage our expectations. Highly recommend

    Good selection of dishes, some unusual combinations of food. We all had small plates, but the portions were substantial. Friendly staff. Service was good.

    Food was brilliant and lovely service. The only thing to improve it would be maybe more crab on the special crab Benedict.

    Second trip to 'The Garden' in a week and another lovely experience overall. We went with a selection of small dishes and each one was tasty. The staff are lovely and with a bit of training for the new or inexperienced staff they will be excellent. I would also prefer to see staff who serve/deal with food that have long hair, have it tied back or at least off their face. I personally think it always looks more professional, smarter and hygienic to see long hair tied back. Never the less lovely evening and great food.
