The festive menu.

Three courses for £49, from 26 November until 20 December: lunch and dinner Thursday to Saturday, and Sunday lunch. Three choices at every course, cooked by the same kitchen that cooks everything else here, in a dining room with the Solent in front of it.

Turkey done properly: poached and roasted, with chestnut, cranberry and thyme stuffing, a pig in blanket and a Yorkshire pudding. Hake if you would rather have fish. A butternut squash pithivier if you would rather not have either. And crackers on the table, because it is Christmas.

Three courses £49 per person. Service charge is not included. Booked and paid in full through SevenRooms.

Vegan. The roasted cauliflower velouté, the butternut squash pithivier and the carpaccio of pineapple are vegan as they are written. There is a full vegan menu too, created by the kitchen so that everyone at the table has a great time. Younger guests get a festive version of the Little Adults menu.

Mixing with the à la carte. Anyone who would rather eat from the à la carte can. Tell us on the pre-order form and we will sort it.

Booking and payment. Booked through SevenRooms and paid in full at the time of booking. No deposit. Payment is refunded in full 14 days or more before your reservation, and 50% from 7 to 14 days. It cannot be refunded within seven days. Service charge is not included.

Food allergens and dietary requirements. Please speak to any member of the team and we’ll gladly tell you what’s in each dish. Our kitchen uses all allergens, so we can’t guarantee any dish is completely free from them. Small shells and bones may be present in fish and shellfish, although we do our best to remove them.
