You may notice a few repairs being done outside our lovely building over the next couple of weeks. Not to worry, everything is as normal, we're just giving it a little tlc!

We will be closed from January 3rd to reopen for drinks on the 9th and food from the 12th. This will give ourselves and our staff a good rest.

Thank you so much everyone for your continued support this last year, we wish everyone the very best for the year coming!

We have also been trying to contact a booking under the name Fletcher, if this is you please do get in touch!

After months of hard work and waiting, our very own Anya Swift came through the Delifresh young chef of the year National finals! Although she didn't win, this amazing young woman has proven what hard work, dedication and skill can really do. To achieve a place when up against such tough competition is nothing short of wonderful!
On a personal note, Thank you for being the superstar that you are, I look forward to the day you become the inspiration for other young chefs, it'll come sooner than you think.
Thank you for putting together a fantastic opportunity, The Grand at Yorktown Crescent for hosting, an especially big thank you to for making us both a little emotional and to Pierre Koffmann for making us laugh, it's an honour to rub shoulders with such talent!
