We like to see our restaurants as an integral part of the social and economic fabric of their communities. This approach gives us an opportunity to have a positive impact on the lives of people who live in neighbourhoods and beyond. Ever since opening our first restaurant in 2002 we’ve endeavoured to make a difference financially and in kind.
If you run a local charity that is looking for support, or would like a prize for a fundraising initiative, please read our Community Engagement Policy and contact Tom Tanner [email protected]. We also love playing host for charity fundraising events. Contact [email protected] to discuss your event.
