The Tip JarMost of our guests like to

leave a small tip for the team - but with the rise of cashless & contactless payments, this is becoming harder for guests to do so without feeling awkward.

So we have taken the step of adding a discretionary 7.5% contribution for the tip jar to your bill. This is split between the team in your restaurant & our chosen charity ‘Cash for Kids’ who help disadvantaged children across the Midlands & North West UK.

Rest assured none of it goes to the big cheeses at head office or is siphoned off in dodgy 'admin fees'. All of it goes to your servers, bar team, kitchen team , bussers, pot washers etc along with a small donation to Cash For Kids.

Of course, if for any reason at all, you’d prefer not to tip then no problem - just let us know & we’ll just take the 7.5% tip off your bill with no awkwardness. That's a promise.

NB: The average bill for 2 guests is £30.49 which means £2.29 for the Tip Jar.
