We invite you to celebrate your love of food this Valentine's Day and enjoy our irresistable menu. Valentine's Day is the perfect excuse to enjoy a delicious meal in the company of someone you love, whether it be a friend, family member or partner. Whomever you are dining with this Valentine's Day, you can rest assured that you will fall in love with the food. Expertly prepared by our chefs, using fresh local ingredients, our special Valentine's Menu promises to tickle the tastebuds and offer a fine dining experience in a relaxed and beautiful setting.

Where does Valentine's Day come from?

We have the Romans to thank for the tradition of Valentine's Day, both the celebration itself and even the name. There are several different stories in history, although the most talked about is that of a Priest named Valentine who, during the third century, arranged marriages in secret. The cupid of his time it seems. The ancient Roman Emperor at that time believed that married men made bad soldiers therefore banned marriage and subsequently executed the priest. Valentine was later honored by the Catholic Church with the celebration of St. Valentine's Day. 

Another story is that the Valentine's Day tradition descends from an ancient Roman festival, during which boys would choose girl's names from a box and partner for the duration of the festival, sometimes getting married.

However it originated, St Valentine's Day is most certainly about love. Not cards, presents, flowers... love. It's a time to enjoy the company of those we love, whether romantic or not.

Valen-dine at your favourite restaurant

Many of us are living our lives without a loved one but why should that stop us enjoying this traditional day! For the love of food, let's think of Valentine's Day as the chance to celebrate love of anything, not just anyone. Its time to love what's right in front of us... food!

Whether you're dining with a friend, family or the love of your life, make it all about the food this Valentine's Day.
