Booking: Space is very limited so book your ticket asap

The restaurant has limited seating, and it would be unfair to them if we blocked their space and then received last-minute cancellation. For this reason, we're asking for a €7 deposit per person. This deposit will be deducted from your restaurant bill on the night. Regrettably, it will be non-refundable for those who decide not to attend.
