IMPORTANT UPDATE -

We have traded fully today after the issues caused by a flooding and electrical issues over the last two days. Apologies to anyone who had made the journey to find us closed.

It also drew attention on social media to us formerly being a 'Card Only' business. This was cancelled over 2 years ago and we have been accepting all forms of payment, including Cash since its removal.

28/10/2026

Whilst engineers have been working all morning to identify the issues affecting our technology side of the business, we have not been able to fully recover our tills, card machines and Internet to trade.

We have redirected some bookings to nearby sites and serving a small pre-booked gathering as best we can.

Apologies for any inconvenience.

27/10/2026

Due to equipment failure causing serious damage to our kitchen, and resulting affects on the technology side of the business, we have been without tills, Wi-Fi, card machines and phone lines for a large section of today.

Due to the intermittent trading and inconsistency, we have decided to close earlier than advertised.

Apologies if this has caused any inconvenience and we hope to be up and running fully for tomorrow.
