Given the size of our establishment we kindly ask guests to keep their dining experiences to 90 minutes, or less, and not remain at a table without any food and/or drink.
Unfortunately due to our lack of space we are unable to accommodate strollers, and to preserve the integrity of our booths, children are not permitted in them.
Also no outside food or drinks allowed inside.
Guests looking exclusively for coffee service after 3 PM are asked to take it To-Go. We appreciate your understanding.
