Covid19 update 24/07/2020.

The newly refurbished Jazz Cafe is now open for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well take away snacks, ice creams and hot and cold drinks.

As in the past we operate a first come, first serve policy, and with a fast turnover of tables there is no need to make a reservation.In line with current advice we are required to take names and contact details on arrival. Our tables are slightly more spaced out than usual to ensure social distancing and are thoroughly cleaned after each use. The menus are for single use only and there is plentiful hand sanitiser for your convenience.

Sunday Lunchtime Sessions

WE ARE DELIGHTED TO ANNOUNCE THAT THE ANDY URQUHART QUARTET WILL RETURN ON SUNDAY 6TH SEPTEMBER 2020.

We will still need to ensure the performers and the tables remain adequately spaced but we are confident we have both the capacity and the demand for some sorely missed live music.

Every Sunday between 1pm and 4pm we present the finest live jazz in the South courtesy of The Andy Urquhart Quartet with a varying line-up and special guests playing standards and modern jazz classics – the perfect accompaniment to your Sunday roast.

It is not necessary to book a table as we prefer to seat and serve customers as they arrive.

Private Functions

The Jazz Café can cater for parties and events of all types from 20 to 150 guests including private dinners, weddings, birthday parties, barbecues and corporate events.

We offer set party menus or we can liaise with you on your preferred menu options.

Bookings are available for evenings only on the weekend and weekdays throughout the year.
