Bow Wine Vaults

Our Brasserie is a casual dining alternative to the restaurant and is open for lunch.

During the fine weather enjoy alfresco dining at lunch time or a shared bottle of “Rose” before the commute home. Our outside “terrace” tables are hugely popular, regardless of the vagaries of the English weather – it’s best to book early to avoid disappointment.

Serving Modern European style cuisine, the Brasserie is open all day
