Covid-19 F.A.Q.

Why do you ask us to book?

By having pre-booked sessions we can reduce the flow of people through the building, and so reduce the risk of transmission.
Encouraging customers to book for a session reduces the likelihood of having people who are on a risky pub-crawl.
Encouraging bookings makes it easier for us to look after our locals, manage our space and keep it safe. 
​

​

What changes have you made to the building to make it safe?

We have reduced our numbers of tables and seats to make effective social distancing possible.
We have used drapes to protect seated customers from those passing close by, and to guide people through the building in a naturally socially-distant way.
We have totally screened-off the bar to protect our team.
​

Why are you only open Thursday to Sunday?

The changes we've made to how we operate have made it harder to break-even. By opening only on what are our busiest sessions we can reduce staff costs and hopefully become more profitable. 
​

Why has your menu changed?

To reduce our running costs chef is having to multi-task! Our new menu means we can carry on serving great quality food, but reduce our staffing costs.
​

Why do we have to order from an app? Technology scares me!

Ordering from your table by app reduces contact between you and our team.
Our app is basically an electronic menu. We hope that you'll find it easier (and possibly even fun) to look through some of our rarer and more unusual products to find your perfect drink.
