This cookie policy is a supplement to this website's Privacy Policy. The cookie policy specifies how this website uses cookies and what data it collects through them, while the Privacy Policy is a more comprehensive overview of all data processing activities on the website and beyond.

Cookies are small pieces of information, similar to text files, that can be stored and read on your device. They serve various purposes, including maintaining basic functionality of a website, security and privacy, providing optional features, collecting statistical data on visitor behaviour, and enabling marketing systems.

This information can technically be stored in various ways. The best-known examples are HTTP cookies and cookie-like technologies such as local storage, session storage, or IndexedDB. Each type of storage has different properties which determine how it is technically handled, who can access it, and what it can be used for. All of these are usually summarised under the term "cookies", and are referred to as such throughout this policy.

The setting and reading of cookies in the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) is, in accordance with Art. 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive, only permitted if a user has given consent based on comprehensive information about the purpose of the processing. We may also set cookies without consent where they are strictly necessary to provide a service you have expressly requested: for example, loading our booking widget when you click "Book a Table".

When you first visit this website, our cookie banner asks for your consent and gives you the option to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your decision at any time by clicking "Cookie Preferences" in the footer of any page, which reopens the cookie banner.

• How to remove cookies in a browser: you can clear browsing data in your browser's settings. This removes cookies from every website you've visited, potentially including saved logins and site preferences. Many browsers let you clear cookies specifically, without deleting your whole browsing history.
• How to control cookies in a browser: for more granular, per-site control, use the privacy and cookie settings within your browser.
• How to block cookies in a browser: most modern browsers can be configured to block all cookies. Blocking cookies may cause some website features to stop working correctly. Browser extensions are also available to block cookies on websites.
• How to manage cookies on this website: click "Cookie Preferences" in the footer at any time to reopen the cookie banner and change your choice.

• Essential cookies are indispensable for the basic functionality of a website, enabling functions such as saving login information or access to secure areas of a site.
• Functional cookies improve the user experience by storing information and preferences, such as language or display settings.
• Statistics cookies collect data about how a website is used to gain insight into visitor behaviour and help optimise the site's performance.
• Marketing cookies track a visitor across different websites to display personalised advertising based on their interests and browsing behaviour.

This website does not use statistics or marketing cookies: see the table below for exactly what is used and why.

This website keeps things deliberately simple. The only cookies set come from the third-party services listed below, each loaded only for the specific feature it supports:

• OpenTable: loaded only when you click "Book a Table", to power our online booking widget. Essential to provide the reservation service you've expressly requested, so this loads regardless of your cookie preference.
• Google Maps: loaded on pages showing our location, to display an interactive map. Non-essential, only loads once you accept cookies, or click directly on the map placeholder to load it for that visit.
• Mailchimp: used on our newsletter sign-up form. The sign-up form itself only submits your email address to Mailchimp when you click Subscribe; no cookies are set until then.

This website does not use Google Analytics, advertising networks, or any other tracking or marketing cookies.
