    • We have had lots of you ask this week what we are doing over summer, so here is the decision! As most of you know, we (Toby + Nikki) took on multiple other spaces earlier this year, meaning no days off for almost an entire year! We are very much looking forward to a day off, spending time with our young family and also freshening up the garden and cafe. We will re open on Thursday 9th January 2020. For those of you who reallllly can't live without us, our city restaurant @barberra_restaurant isn't closing down over this time and you might just have to pop out for dinner + drinks instead of lunch! (You will find some similar touches on the menu like Fried Chicken!)
