A good time cave à manger on Exmouth Market. Ken's presents a daily rotating food and wine offering. Chef Fergus Shields' contemporary European cooking foregrounds seasonality whilst the wine program is led by Dan Long, with the list featuring established icons, natural wine legends, as well as future classics from all around the world.

    Lovely experience, very good service. The food could have been better - beef was good, sea bream would benefit from some lime/savoury note to it, ravioli dish was overcooked a bit.

    We had a superb meal, very tasty. The staff seemed particularly friendly and interested in what they were serving. Particular care was taken of one of our friends who has gluten intolerance. Great all round restaurant!

    Loved it. Seriously good food and wine list. The mangalitza belly from Coombeshead was unreal. Pumpkin pasta dish and beef (and the sauce!) also major highlights. Restaurant aesthetics and music also on point. Same again next week me thinks.
