Sundays they do 50 cent buffalo chicken wings until 5pm - amazing! And half price cocktails until 7pm. Try the cucumber gimlet with gin... so refreshing and goes great with the spicy chicken wings.

Shopping

Cute home & gift shop specialising in local independent designers. I love their "Richmond" cushions and art prints, and always great for finding beautiful gifts. Fairly expensive though.
