Leek & cider soup
With soda bread and cultured butter. A bowl for grey Bristol mornings.
Independent café-restaurant
Quiet luxury on Limekiln Yard
A considered daytime kitchen in Southville — filter coffee poured properly, a short menu that moves with the week, and a room designed for lingering.
The room
Breakfast into lunch, without hurry
We open early for porridge, cultured butter and soft eggs, then ease into soups, salads and a few hot plates until mid-afternoon. No evening service. No online shop. Just the kitchen, the light, and whoever walks through the door.
Take the settle by the far wall if you need quiet. The yard-side tables catch the afternoon sun.
This week
Three specials on the board
Seasonal plates written up each week. The standing menu stays; these three change.
Smoked mackerel on rye
Pickled cucumber, soft egg, and a spoon of horseradish cream.
Brown butter apple cake
Still warm around three o’clock, if the tray lasts that long.
