A look inside.

Six photographs of the room, the plates and the people, taken on quiet evenings because Saturday nights are too dark and too busy. The rest is on Instagram, where the Wednesday menu goes up at noon.

The room, the plates, the pass, the back room.

The room

Forty covers in a Georgian townhouse. The tablecloths are a decision; so are the candles, and the music low enough to hear the next table laugh.

Sioned

From a farm a mile away, used whole across the week. The rump at dinner, the shoulder on Sunday, the rest in the lunch shepherd's pie.

Sioned

Four cooks, eight of everything, forty covers twice. The tweezers are for the herbs; the rest is done with a spoon.

The kitchen

Rib of Vale beef rested for an hour, potatoes in dripping, the Yorkshire from Lowri's grandmother. More gravy when you ask.

Lowri

Taken off the menu once, in 2019, for a fortnight. The letters were not polite. It has been on every menu since.

The townhouse's old dining room: panelling, a fireplace, its own door off the courtyard and its own waiter. No hire fee against a minimum spend.

Instagram

The Wednesday menu, the producers, the odd plate.

The new menu goes up at noon on Wednesday, the producer suppers are announced in January for the year, and Sioned posts a plate when it is worth one. No reels of the dining room on a Saturday; you were in it.

Book a table.

Forty covers, so Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays need a booking. Lunch is two courses for £24, Wednesday to Saturday. The back room seats twelve with no hire fee. The menu changes every Wednesday and is online by noon.
