Another member of the Huntsbridge Group, with the same open approach to the business, which describes its culinary policy as Mediterranean/Global, a very apt summary. Whilst you nibble on a bowl of warm olives or pork scratchings even, you may contemplate rare tuna nori rolls with nuoc cham and green mango salad. Salads can be particularly memorable; leek, potato, rocket, and chorizo with soft-boiled egg and bottarga for instance.

Try the pan-fried halibut with mashed peas, broad beans and a sprinkling of black olives, served on a plate slicked with mint oil and tapenade. Follow with pannacotta served with dark cherries and you will see that you are in the hands of experts. As with others in the Group the drinking of wine is intelligently tackled. There are over 30 bottles at £20 or under, with 16 house wines starting at around £12 a bottle. Pay special attention to the dessert wines.
