About Us

Errin and Vince feel so privileged to take over this gorgeous building, in a way it is a coming home of sorts for Errin who actually completed her apprenticeship in this very spot, many years ago.

We wanted to create a fun and relaxed venue with the kind of atmosphere that you could be anywhere in the world. After completing a full refit and landscaping of the space we are so excited to show everyone what we have created.

The menu is modern Italian inspired with a huge focus on locally sourced and sustainable ingredients. Fresh handmade pasta and pizza bases made in house with all toppings sourced from local suppliers means we are able to support other local businesses and bring you the best experience possible. Our wine and beer list focusses heavily on local and craft suppliers whilst our cocktail menu has been carefully curated to bring you an indulgent mix of cocktails, focussing currently on fresh fruits and premium spirits. We also have a large selection of premium and boutique gin brands to work through.
