About this space

A compact French bistro arranged as a single dining room that retains a traditional, table-focused layout and an informal, neighbourhood character.

Design: The interior pairs leather banquette seating and freestanding dark-wood tables against patterned wallpaper and timber floors. The ceiling is painted tongue-and-groove and low pendant lights provide even, warm illumination over the dining area.

Features: A PA system and built-in speakers support music and announcements, and external playlists are permitted. Additional practical facilities include Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, accessible toilets, wheelchair access and a step‑free guest entrance.

Ideal for: Neighbourhood groups or small teams seeking an intimate, relaxed seated dinner or an informal standing reception.

What sets it apart: A focused cocktail programme that highlights mezcal-based drinks as a distinctive element of the bar offering.

What guests say: The venue is a neighbourhood institution with a warm front-of-house team and an owner who is a local fixture. The menu's French classics receive frequent praise for their richness and consistency.
