There is an agreeable, happy feeling at Jak's which aspires to provide a taste of the Mediterranean by serving up some organic and delicious food in a casual, stylish place on Walton Street. It attracts a mixed clientele, from ladies who lunch and corporate businessmen to locals and tourists, who return enthusiastically for their home-style cooking.

The menu has done away with the three course concept, but keeps a sharp focus on local produce and organic ingredients. Salads are wholesome and satisfying, take the tuna salad for instance, done in the traditional Jak's style with spring onions, red kidney beans, green, red and yellow peppers, parsley and a dash of lemon, or the tricolore with cherry tomatoes, bocconcini mozzarella and basil. A chicken pie could follow, or perhaps cabbage dolma stuffed with minced lamb, brown rice and mixed herbs.

Jak's catering package, for both home and office encompasses breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner, and there is also a separate canapés menu.
