Please note due to the age of the listed building there are areas that have stairs and therefore we are unable to accommodate wheelchairs in the lower lounge and restaurant. Mobility scooters will need to be parked at the front of the building.

The vibe is real – we wanted to bring something special to the town centre that all our guests can relax and enjoy… whether it’s a refreshing Pornstar Martini or small plates and platters to pick and share we’re sure you will love this space!
