Ordering Strategy

Pace yourself for a '12-hour graze': start with morning pastries and coffee, move to the crab tart for lunch, and finish with big snacks and martinis from 5:30pm.

What to order

Safe first

Salmon and eggs

Mentioned as serving the best breakfast in London - eggs always cooked to perfection and bread buttered all the way to the side

Hungry

Crab tart

This signature daytime snack is described as a little masterpiece—rich, flaky, and packed with brown crab meat.

Wildcard

£7 Martinis

An absolute steal of a cocktail that is dangerously drinkable and the perfect value-pairing for the evening menu.
