Hidden behind deep-blue curtains, this intimate 40-cover space buzzes with crackling vinyl and animated chatter from diners squeezed elbow-to-elbow. The handwritten daily menus showcase seasonal brilliance - spring veg fritters, burrata with courgette agrodolce, spelt fettuccine in rich pork ragu that changes with what's best at market. The wine program stars 30%+ natural and biodynamic bottles by glass, with chatty staff who guide perfect pairings. The vinyl soundtrack gets chosen by diners, creating a unique audio experience where your playlist request might soundtrack someone's first date. Always start with their legendary sourdough and butter - it sets the tone for everything that follows.

Christoff's Tip:

Queue early at 5pm for counter seats - the vinyl deck is first-come-first-served for playlist requests
