5pm, nice afternoon glass of wine. 125 seems to be standard size. Staff welcoming and warm, seem to be keen to test wines on offer and learn the subtleties and differences. Should be happy to follow there recommendations. Atmosphere, relaxing and quite cozy, at this time of day at least. Lighting and decor good quality and soporific. Nice cave feel about the place.

We had a really lovely experience here over the weekend. The service was excellent and the wine and food were really good as well. I had never had orange wine before but the staff were great at explaining what it would taste like and talking us through the menu. We ended up having a meat and cheese board too which was perfect. We would definitely recommend a visit for a round of wine, for the great service and for the cool atmosphere too.

Booked to go with ease - my first trip to the new development at Kings Cross and was impressed! Tried a few different items on the menu as well as the wine which was all great. Huge recommendation to the rabbit pie - an elite tier munch.

THE ROAST POTATOES ARE SO AMAZING!! Best potatoes I’ve ever had anywhere on god no cap. Only complaint I have is the manager didn’t suggest it to me when I asked for fries..... haha jokes aside staff are lovely and service was amazing too. Lovely place with quality vibes but not too bougie. Sitting outside is fab, they have heaters for the cold days and there’s a cute mini jungle
