SOMETIMES, CASUAL IS JUST WHAT YOU NEED. 🍔🥩

After a long day of meetings, travelling or being on the road, sometimes a more casual meal is just what you need.

Sometimes you just want to sit down, relax and enjoy something good to eat with a nice drink to follow.

A perfectly cooked steak.
A really good burger and chips.
A loaded flatbread.
Something to share.
A little something sweet to finish. 🍰

Our lounge menu offers plenty of choice when you're looking for something a little more relaxed, especially when you're staying with us midweek on business.

No fuss. No formality. Just good food, a comfortable table and a chance to switch off after a busy day.

Because not every evening needs three courses. Sometimes a steak and a pint is exactly what the day ordered.
