Three distinct experiences

At The Riverside Bar & Kitchen, we invite you to discover three distinct dining experiences, each thoughtfully designed to suit the occasion.

Cocktails at the bar

Drinks & Light Bites

Relaxed, social, and flavour packed. Ideal for casual meetups, date nights, or pre-dinner drinks with beautifully crafted cocktails and delicious small plates to share.

Chef's Table

An exclusive, immersive dining experience. Take your place at the heart of the kitchen and enjoy front-row views of our chefs at work, paired with exceptional dishes from our menu: intimate, engaging, and truly memorable.

Due to the layout, the Chef's Table is only available to bookings of 2 diners.
