The menu changes daily and is written on large chalk boards dotted around the restaurant. Lokanta offers authentic Turkish food and Chez Lalou serves French cuisine in generous portions. Bucher and Catch is exactly what the name suggests and is a meat and seafood lover's heaven. If a more traditional pub and grub is what you're after then look no further than The York or the Crosspool Tavern.
