About this space

Tucked away from the main bar, our newly refurbished private section is a modern yet cosy retreat designed for versatility and comfort. Clean lines, warm finishes, and carefully considered lighting create an inviting atmosphere that feels both contemporary and intimate.

The space transitions effortlessly from private dining to meetings or afternoon tea, offering a relaxed sense of privacy while maintaining a refined, stylish edge. Flexible seating and attentive service allow the room to be personalised to each occasion, making it ideal for gatherings that call for comfort, discretion, and modern elegance.
