We will always try to accommodate seated bookings on as few tables as possible, but we may need to split your party across multiple tables. We will always try to seat your party as close together, however, this cannot always be guaranteed.

Larger groups may be required to pre-order and/or dine from set menus. Please speak to our events team for details.

Cancellations and No-shows

Please allow at least 7 days’ notice should you wish to cancel your booking. No-shows or cancellations with less than 7 days’ notice are subject to a cancellation fee which is the amount your card is held for at the time of booking.

Please note that all bookings must be canceled in writing by email, simply reply to your booking confirmation email, keeping the subject of the email the same as this identifies your booking. Cancellations made through other means, including social media, may not be accepted and you may still be charged.

For some bookings, you may be able to cancel yourself. Look for the ‘cancel’ button in your confirmation email.

So that you can book with peace of mind, we would give you the option to rebook up to 12 months or cancel with no charges in the event that we are forced to close.
