Thank you for a wonderful late lunch service with my family yesterday. Great Food, Atmosphere and service by the wonderful team you have on board!

My excited 4 year old son enjoyed his time yesterday & his chicken bites & calamari. Staff were very attentive and we enjoyed our birthday meal out! Amazing amazing food! Thank you once again and best of luck! We will be coming back again for sure!

Ps. The decor is gorgeous!!!!

What an incredible place! They have outdone themselves with the decor and overall vibe. The food is amazing and unlike anything else you can get in Winchester.

The team of staff and brilliant and make you feel so welcome, and on the odd occasion when service may be a little slower (very busy nights and a new business finding its feet!) they more than make up for it. Have only heard good things from friends, family and clients who I have recommended.

Popped in on Friday for coffee with a friend and ended up staying for hours and ordering food!

Absolutely beautiful space to relax in with open fires, exposed beams and just a lovely vibe. Staff were attentive, a special shout out to Kieran behind the bar who made us some awesome cocktails! Also food wise 10/10. I’m plant based so wasn’t sure I could eat here BUT I ordered lots of tapas style dishes to try and they were incredible. I loved the tabulah and the falafel- actually the best I’ve had.

We will definitely be back – highly recommend!

Came for dinner on a busy evening without a booking and was greeted with a very warm welcome and seated straight away despite how busy they were.

Really can’t fault this place. Amazing food , great staff and beautiful venue. Definitely a must and the place to go in winchester!

Thanks for a great evening and definitely excited to come back to try more out of a delicious menu. 🌟

A breath of fresh air in the Winchester dining scene: incredibly delicious food, quietly welcoming atmosphere, and lovely, helpful staff make this historic building buzz in a newly tempting way.

We had the vegetarian sharing plate along with tea and coffee, and it was all beautifully presented as well as tasting fantastic. We appreciated the subtle music (not too loud).

I wish we had discovered it had opened sooner! It’s going to be a frequent choice for us in future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great reunion meal with friends here. Food and ambience were perfect but it was made extra special by Joe who was superb. His hospitality, knowledge and humour were fantastic and rare to see nowadays - thank you Joe! Hope to be back again sometime.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great restaurant with lots of vegan options. Highly recommend the vegan mezze to share , and the cocktails were delicious too. Our server (it says Chris on the receipt, I hope that’s him) was so friendly and made us feel really comfortable and welcome. Loved the food and we will definitely be back. However, please hire better ‘musicians’ if you are going to have them at all. The drummer on 8th august played the same rhythm over and over with different backing tracks - it genuinely made us feel like we were going insane. It was loud and not relaxing, so perhaps stick to a chill playlist for now. Or at the very least, don’t hire someone who only plays one rhythm on repeat for two hours
