Our Wine List
A small, thoughtful list of wines we enjoy drinking ourselves, with the food on our menu.
Our wine list is built around food. Not just evening meals, but the sort of food we actually serve every day. Bagels, sweet and savoury scones, and seasonal stews. Wines that are comfortable at lunchtime, easy to enjoy by the glass, and balanced enough to sit naturally alongside simple, well-made food.
Our list changes gently over time, but every new bottle has to earn its place. We taste widely, compare carefully and only keep the wines we’d happily pour ourselves. Some become regular favourites. Others quietly disappear.
Guest Wines
Alongside our regular collection you’ll often find one or two bottles we’re particularly excited about. Sometimes they’re unusual grapes, sometimes familiar grapes from somewhere unexpected. They’re simply wines we’ve discovered and think deserve to be shared.
