Elm Threadthe evening menu

This is what the kitchen is cooking tonight. Courses run from snacks through the hearth to sweets — order as much or as little as you like, in any order you like. Your server will take everything at the table.

How this menu changes

We write the menu around what arrives rather than the other way round, so a dish may be crossed off mid-service and something else takes its place. If a plate is gone, your server will tell you what the kitchen would send instead.

Most dishes can be adjusted — butter swapped for oil, bread left off, a sauce served apart. Ask before you order and the kitchen will say plainly what is possible.

Please tell your server about any allergy or intolerance before ordering. Our kitchen is small and handles nuts, gluten, dairy, shellfish and egg in the same space, so we cannot promise a dish is completely free of a trace.
