A Yes, we do have wheelchair access into the dining room and through to the toilets, however, our tables are bar height and our chairs are actually the height of bar stools. Persons confined to wheelchairs would actually be sitting under the top surface of the tables. We have had to assist the elderly up into the seats.
Q Is it served on tiered cake stands or Royal Albert china?
A No. We have taken many years to collect vintage silver and depression / vintage glass plates, trays and stands. We love them and they make our food look amazing. It is part of the rochelle adonis experience. You’ll notice that all the cutlery is also mismatched silverware!
