Neighbourhood bistro · Orchard Row

Simple French cooking, done properly.

Seasonal plates, a short wine list we love and a dining room that feels like a Tuesday night in Lyon. Brunch at the weekend, dinner most nights.

Walk-ins always welcome at the bar.

Bienvenue

We bake our bread at six, buy our plums from eleven miles away and cook the way our grandmothers did, with butter and patience.

From the farm

Everything within an hour's drive.

We know every farmer by name. Our produce, dairy, meat and flour come from five suppliers, the furthest just 60 miles away. When their season changes, so does our menu.
