    The Private Dining Room

    Partial hire of our private dining room is ideal for intimate feasts, long-table lunches or dinners, and group gatherings. We strongly recommend our signature Feasting Menu — shared platters, whole roasts, and seasonal dishes designed for the table.

    For standing events, our Grand Buffet offers a premium selection of dishes for a more relaxed feel.
