Welcome to our vibrant, creative and loving home!

    Absolutely an excellent dining experience. We started with the Rare salad and then we both had the duck dinner. We can’t wait to return

    Gorgeous steak, my husband enjoyed the seafood. Music was lovely but not loud. Went with friends and all felt it was a wonderful experience. Service was excellent!

    There are many great restaurants in Peterborough, but for fine dining this is the gold standard. Staff are friendly and food is excellent
