An all-day hangout in the heart of St Pauls, this former boot factory is a neighbourhood hub, cafe, kitchen, event space and bar open all day, every day.

Whether you’re stopping by for a working breakfast, after-work drinks, or catching up with friends for a cosy dinner in our intimate dining room, we’re an open house for any occasion; from coffee to cocktails, breakfast to bedtime.
