Husband & Wife team Tim & Cara run the show with Tim's foodie inspiration and Cara's organisation!
We believe in proper food! Burgers that are freshly 'smash' cooked on the griddle with quality 100% beef chuck mince, locally baked brioche buns and locally sourced ingredients for all our dishes! We also love a good old British breakfast butty- bacon, sausage & Egg is a winner!
All our meat is fresh sourced directly from a local butcher. We never buy frozen, mass produced products and we firmly believe this means our food tastes so much better! We always try and source locally and we're always on the lookout for the best tasting quality ingredients to match our food.
