The menu will offer a small number of breakfast options, before moving on to the all-day a la carte consisting of small plates and platters designed for sharing alongside classic mains. An extended brunch service will be available on Sunday mornings into early afternoon. The bar will feature a seasonal cocktail menu and an extensive wine list, as well as spotlighting local beers and spirits, with a strong non-alcoholic range, and great coffee.
