  • Bistro offer - 3 for £20

    Oct 1, 2024 - Nov 30, 2024
    Dine from our Bistro Menu for some lovely dishes at amazing value. 2 courses for £17 or 3 for £20. It’s available from 12 until 6:30 from Monday – Thursday and before 4pm on Fridays. We’ve worked hard with our chefs to strip things back and keep things really simple. It’s good, hearty, tasty stuff served to you by a team who love what they do. And sometimes you don’t need anything more than that. Our menu changes monthly, please go to our website or check social media for menu updates.

    Staff were lovely and we had a lovely table but the food was just missing something, perhaps a little garnish with starters. It was very spacious and a lovely room.

    Great food, lovely service, incredible value on the bistro menu, and the a la carte also excellent. Kala does all the important things brilliantly and without fuss.

    Amazing food - focaccia to die for. Schnitzel that will change your life. Only negative - I asked for 1 more minute to decide on my order and was told that kitchen staff need to go home so I need to hurry along (hand gesture included). Quite disappointing - I booked a table for 9pm didn’t expect to have to rush my order. Not the end of the world but not what I expect at a place like this!
