*WE ARE OPEN TODAY*
We are now open 5 days per week (Tues – Sat 9.30am – 2.30pm) with Mike cooking all the meals and Rob and Beth on the shop floor. We are now a very small team of 3 supported offsite by Melanie.
We have now furloughed all our other people and decided to keep trading so we can be in the best position to keep paying our people before the Government grant for the Job Retention Scheme is received and to pay our suppliers. And we want to do our best to have a business to reopen as a restaurant when life returns to normal! We know that the lovely people of Streatham are enjoying Mike’s marvellous meals as well as finding it useful that we have hard to buy items just as eggs, pasta and flour. We also have lots of usual drinks for sale at great retail prices. We are working with our long-term suppliers to bring in produce for you all and we really appreciate your support.
Our menu and stock changes daily and we will do our best to update the website and social media for the latest information. You can see today’s menu here.

Right now, we are selling Hood made ready meals to reheat at home, fresh fruit and vegetables, store cupboard items such as flour and pasta, many of our favourite wines, beers and soft drinks plus we are also selling restaurant vouchers to use after we re-open (valid for 3 months after re-opening).
Please follow the Government’s advice to stay at home but if you need food today then please drop by and support our pop-up and buy local.
We kindly request the following:
- only two people come into our shop at a time
- keep your distance from our team and other customers
- that you use hand sanitiser at the door
- minimise touching products you not purchasing; and
- queue outside with distance.

Following the Prime Minister’s broadcast on Monday 22 March to ask the general public to stay at home, we plan to close our pop-up food and drink store this week. We will sell as much of our stock as possible and then we plan to close the doors until its safe to trade again.
In response to the Prime Minister’s announcement on Monday 16 March advising the general public to avoid places such as restaurants we took the decision to temporarily halt trading as a restaurant and bar and become a pop-up food and drink store.
We hope everyone stays healthy and we thank our customers and our team of people for their continued support. It truly means alot to us all.
Best, Melanie, Mike, Robin and Rob
