  • A word from the chef:

    Dining at The Hydrant is a social experience with American diner inspired small plates for groups to share as well as some of the classic mains & buns you would expect from a Stateside influenced menu, as well as the odd British classic such as Fish & Chips thrown in. There are more than 30 different dishes to choose from, each cleverly concocted from the finest seasonal ingredients around and sourced from the very best local suppliers.
