Rustic colours and streamlined timber create a relaxed and timeless dining space.

Art Deco ceiling mouldings and historic wooden beams lend depth and drama to the restaurant space, which features an open kitchen and private dining room.

The mix of materials – marble tabletops, leather wall panels, antique mirror and brickbond tiling – sits harmoniously with the building’s existing features.

Elegant fixtures, such as a bespoke built-in bookcase, a considered lighting scheme and brass detailing, add to air of low-key luxury.
