Come hungry. Bring everyone.
Two generations in the kitchen, plates that don't know how to be small, and a Sunday lunch that regularly forgets to end. This is not a concept, it is a family that cooks.
- Everything homemade
- Kids genuinely welcome
- Sunday lunch is sacred

Recipes with a surname
The stock has simmered here every morning for as long as anyone remembers. The founder still tastes everything; his daughter runs the kitchen now, and argues with him about salt exactly like he argued with his mother.
Nothing on the menu comes off a truck ready-made. If we cannot make it properly in-house, it is simply not on the menu.

What the regulars say
We came for a birthday and stayed until they stacked the chairs. The duck was the best I have had in years, and the staff treated our late table like the first of the night.
The menu is short and that is exactly the point, everything on it earns its place. The celeriac steak converted a table of committed carnivores.
Booked for six on a rainy Thursday. Warm room, patient service, and the onion soup alone was worth crossing town for. One star kept for the day they add more desserts.
Our regular table since the opening. The card changes with the market and there is always one dish we argue over sharing. Book ahead, the dining room fills fast.
