the place to be, no matter what the occasion. For a catch up with friends over a creamy latte and
smashed avo on sourdough, to seal your business deal with clients over small plates and a glass
of wine, or even if you want to come in, kick back and read the newspaper – we don’t mind,
we’ve got you covered!
If you’re out with your pup, well behaved four-legged friends are more than welcome with us, as long as you
don’t mind our team giving them a bit of fuss! Ask one of the servers for a water bowl, and if
you’re lucky – occasional treats will also be available!
By night, we take things up a level… we rock out disco beats that make it feel like the weekend
no matter what day of the week it is! Let us serve you the best food and craft you a killer cocktail
to go with it. Book your table to make sure you don’t miss out.","diningStyle":"Casual Dining","publicTransit":null,"executiveChef":null,"entertainment":null,"cateringDetails":null,"website":"https://dancingmoose.co.uk/","hoursOfOperation":"Mon 5:00 pm–11:00 pm\n

The eggs manhattan was incredible best poached eggs!! Service was fantastic with a smile every time she approached our table. I didn’t get to catch her name but did notice the tattoo on the side of her hand if that helps to pass on my thanks. She defiantly made our afternoon more enjoyable. Attentive polite and friendly.
