Open daily from noon until midnight, the venue offers a diverse menu that ranges from hearty breakfasts and skilfully prepared breakfasts, to lunch specials, upscale dinners, and a lively happy‑hour menu. Guests can dine indoors in a warm, airy space or step out onto the inviting terrace for scenic views of the city’s historic centre. The kitchen prides itself on using fresh, local ingredients to create rustic yet elegant dishes—think house‑made salads, savory fish and meat cuts, and decadent desserts baked on the premises.
