The kitchen
We buy small and cook it the same week
Two boats in Brixham, a farm outside Chew Magna and a cheese room in Bath. If something is not good enough on the day it comes off the menu, which is why the menu is printed on Wednesday morning and not before.
- Everything made here, including the bread
- A short wine list, mostly from small growers
- Vegetarian menu of the same length, always
- Service included; no discretionary anything
Said about us
Kind words
“The hake was the best thing I ate all year, and I eat out for a living.”
Bristol Food Review
“Ten tables, no music, no theatre — just extremely good cooking and someone who remembers your name.”
The Wharf Guide
“Book six weeks out. It is worth the diary management.”
Somerset Life

A corner room on Wharf Street
Eighteen covers downstairs and a counter for six who did not book. The corner table is the good one; ask for it and we will do our best.
