Booking terms & Conditions
BOOKING AND PAYMENTS
We are cashless so you need to bring a bank card to settle your bill. We accept carding including American Express as well as Apple Pay, Google Pay & Android Pay.
Fees may apply for late cancellations and no-shows. For larger groups and on key occasion days for our business, we reserve the right to increase the notice required. This will be outlined in your booking journey.
Your table will be held for 20 minutes. After this time, your table may be charged a cancellation fee and given away. If you are late for your reservation, this may be taken off your total booking time.
We will always try to accommodate seated bookings on as few tables as possible, but we may need to split your party across multiple tables. We will always try to seat your party as close together, however, this cannot always be guaranteed.
Larger groups may be required to pre-order and/or dine from set menus. Please speak to our events team for details.
Our venues are also available for private hire, meaning some spaces may be out of use to the public during your visit.
We reserve the right to refuse or eject any guests who appear intoxicated, behaving inappropriately or dressed inappropriately. Right of admission is reserved and no refund or compensation will be given.
On rare occasions, we may need to move or amend your booking and will work closely with you to find the best solution. In the event we need to cancel your booking you will receive a full refund where applicable.
