Copper & Ink
Q: Are children allowed?
A: Yes. We offer a Children's Menu, but for the more adventurous child they can try any of the items on the price fix menu in a taster size portion for a child-sized price. Please do let us know if you are bringing a buggy or pram or if you require a high chair ahead of time if possible so we can ensure you are seated comfortably.
Q: Are dogs allowed?
A: Yes! We are dog friendly during lunch service on the ground floor, and by pre-arrangement during evening service. Please let us know ahead of time if you will be bringing your dog by emailing us on info@copperandink.com so we can ensure you're seated appropriately.
Q: I have an allergy, is there anything for me to eat?
A: Absolutely! We can cater for dietary requirements including vegetarian, vegan, gluten- and dairy-free. If possible, please inform us in advance of any specific dietary requirements so we can ensure you are well fed. Please see our menu pages for more information.
Q: Can I bring my own wine?
A: Sadly not. We have worked hard to put together a great selection of wines and we feel we have enough choice to suit all tastes and price brackets.
Q: I’d like the taster menu, how long will it take?
A: We advise leaving 2.5 hours for the taster menu.
Q: There’s more than 10 of us. Can we book a table?
A: Our maximum party size is 8 people (including children).
Q: Is there a dress code?
A: Not at all! We want you to feel comfortable, however, if you want to make more of an effort by wearing your Sunday best, you definitely won’t feel out of place.
Q: Will Tony, Becky & Rob be working?
A: Yes! All three are full time at the restaurant; however, we can’t guarantee you will get to see them on your visit. If you do see them, please do ensure to say hi as they are all happy to have a chat.
Q: It’s a birthday celebration, can we bring a cake?
A: Yes! Please do let us know before hand so we can be prepared. We also offer a cake service at £10 per head.
Should this be of interest, please contact us on info@copperandink.com at least one week before your booking so we can discuss this with you. Please note that we can only offer the cake service if we are contacted directly by email in advance.
Q: What time is the last sitting for dinner?
A: The last sitting for dinner is 9:30pm.
Q: Everyone in my party wants the taster menu; can I choose from the price fix?
A: Sadly not. We want our guests to enjoy their food together and wouldn’t want one guest to be sat waiting whilst the others are still eating. We ask that everyone in your party either has the taster or price fix menu.
Q: I’m not hungry; can I have a drink at the bar?
A: Unfortunately not - we do not have a dedicated bar area.
Q: Why is the restaurant called Copper & Ink?
A: We love that the name has a bit of mystery surrounding it and that it has so many connotations; copper cooking pots, squid ink, etc., but it’s down to the fact that Becky has ginger hair and is covered in tattoos (although Tony is rapidly catching her up in that department)! We like to say that it’s really the story of love, tattoos and cooking pots!

Q: Do you sell gift vouchers?
A: Yes! Gift vouchers are available to purchase from the restaurant in values of £50, £75 and £100. Vouchers are valid for 1 year from the date of issue and cannot be exchanged for cash or credit.

Q: I'm celebrating a birthday, can I have a dessert with a candle?

Please be advised that we don't offer candles in desserts, nor do we provide cakes (unless you have pre-ordered our cake service, see above) or drinks, BUT, we will definitely add some Copper & Ink magic touches in order to make the celebration special for you.
Q: I'm trying to book a table for a Saturday night and I'm only seeing the option for the Taster. Why?
A: From July 2022 we will only be offering the Taster Menu on Saturday nights. Therefore you will need to select this option to proceed through the booking system.
