What travels well, and what doesn’t
Not every dish survives a paper bag equally. After years of takeaway service, this is the honest ranking.
- Travels beautifully
- Sandwiches, burgers with the accompaniments packed separately, grain bowls, wraps, salads with dressing on the side, and anything from the small plates section.
- Travels well with a caveat
- Thin-crust pizza is excellent within about ten minutes and merely good after twenty. Order it if you are close.
- Order for the dining room instead
- Eggs cooked to a specific temperature and anything that arrives under a sauce meant to be eaten immediately. They are still fine — just noticeably better at the table.
- Picnic-ready
- The kitchen has packed picnic orders for years. Call ahead and the team will build a bag intended to sit in a park for an hour.
Cocktails, beer and wine to go
The to-go beverage list runs alongside the food, which is unusual and worth knowing about.
- Bottled cocktails
- House cocktails packaged for travel, sealed as required.
- Beer
- Bottles and cans from the same list served in the dining room.
- Wine
- Bottles from the by-the-glass and reserve lists, at takeaway pricing.
- Ask about pairings
- If you tell the team what food you have ordered, they will suggest something that fits rather than defaulting to the house pour.
