Please note that menus are seasonal and may change throughout the year.

Allergies & dietary restrictions:

We do not customize menus for individual allergies or dietary restrictions during private events. A note is printed at the bottom of the menu reminding guests with food allergies to inform their server, who will then advise them on what they may safely enjoy.

If you are aware of any allergies or restrictions in advance and would like to provide an alternative for those guests, we offer additional sandwich platters by the half-dozen or dozen.

Options include:

- Traditional cucumber sandwiches (vegetarian)

- Vegan cucumber sandwiches (egg-free and dairy-free)

- Gluten-free cucumber sandwiches (for guests with gluten intolerance)

For more details, please visit our FAQ page, and ensure that guests with severe allergies are comfortable consuming our food before attending.
