Dinner, as theatre

The fire is the centrepiece. From our open kitchen, the tandoor glows and the coals breathe — a slow, mesmerising backdrop to your evening.

  • An open fire kitchen

    Watch the tandoor and coals at the heart of the room — the theatre of fire from your table.

  • A cellar worth lingering over

    A thoughtful list of wines and cocktails built to stand up to bold spice, poured by a team who know it well.

  • Made to be shared

    Plates arrive as they're ready, designed for the middle of the table and the best kind of conversation.
