Spring Menu Revamp!!

We’ve had a little revamp of our menu for the arrival of the Spring/Summer season - All the favourites are still there but with added oomph. Our Dirty Chips have been pimped up, and we’ve been listening to your feedback on the Ma’doner’ making sure you can have it just the way you want it!

We take time and pride in our food, making everything in-house - from our burgers and chips down to our burger sauces, buns and flatbread, slaw, onion rings, pickles… you name it, we make it!  We buy from local suppliers and make sure all our meat, cheese and eggs are organic.

Come on down and feast!

LONDON CALLING: A WHOLE ERA SHOWED UP - Screening in the cafe

Missed the 'London Calling' exhibition in the big smoke?! Well catch @winstanw documentary 'London Calling: A whole era showed up' featuring many of the heads behind the exhibit & no doubt the chaos created from wrangling tonnes of skaters from at least 3 decades of skateboarding 🤯...my hat goes off to you sir. If you're closer to Los Angeles than Brighton (Brighton Picturehouse) or the Welsh capital, then get yourself over the Skateboarding Hall Of Fame, Simi Valley, where it's also screening....alongside 5 Brits being added to the fame wall. With @stevedouglascfc1 at the helm you know it's gonna b a goodun 🛹🎥💥🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇺🇸

'London Calling: A Whole Era Showed Up' chronicles the inception, creation, preparation, and recollections of the 'London Calling!' exhibition launch, as well as accompanying events, held across London in 2023. From the voices of the team to the legendary 70's skateboarders, they all share their excitement as they revel in the ultimate 40 plus year reunion.
