Wheelchair Access

There is one step into the restaurant. Unfortunately due to the very narrow pavement, a ramp is not possible

Inside there is one step into the bathrooms otherwise the restaurant is manoeuvrable in a wheelchair.

The bathrooms are not wheelchair accessible to the small size of the unit. There nearest wheelchair accessible toilet is two doors down at The Lily Bar.

If you have any queries regarding access, please e-mail us and we will do all we can to help.

We have a flexible approach to dress code in the restaurant with most guests opting for smart casual. We do ask that you do not wear walking gear (no waterproof trousers please); caps or bring backpacks or other luggage into the dining room (excluding mobility devices). We do not have space to store large or wet items. Thank you.
