Local milk bar now open for dinner providing another easy to get to casual eating option. Plenty of outdoor space for the dogs. The steak was great but the gnocchi wasn’t the best I’d eaten ….but pleasant enough. We’ll be back.

The food is terrific and I love the fact you can bring your dog to Fordham's Milk Bar. However, not keen on the new 'app' table service. It was better when staff waited at the tables.
