About this space

Upstairs Semi-Private Area is a Dining Room in a restaurant defined by an intimate, low-ceiling layout that sits apart from the ground-floor seating.

Design: The room presents classic brasserie finishes: hardwood floors, neutral painted walls and dark wood trim. The lighting is warm and restrained from wall sconces and ceiling fittings, and the space runs as a long rectangular dining bay.

Features: The area combines fixed banquette seating with freestanding tables that can be rearranged and comes set with standard tableware. The space includes complimentary Wi‑Fi and air conditioning. The area provides step-free guest access, wheelchair access and accessible toilets.

Ideal for: Intimate to mid-sized groups seeking a relaxed, seated dinner in a sheltered, sociable dining setting.

What guests say: The space has large windows and a canal-side aspect that provide daylight and opportunities for people-watching.
