A few things you’ll want to try

A few favourites — simple, satisfying, and exactly what you want from a proper lunch.

Thai Chicken Flatbread

Crisp homemade flatbread topped with Thai chicken, melted mozzarella, chilli, spring onion, and a coconut and basil dressing. Big flavours, a little bit messy, and very easy to keep going back to.

Steak & Chips

Perfectly cooked, full of flavour, and exactly what you want. Add a good glass of red, take your time, and settle in — this is the kind of dish that makes you want to stay a little longer.

Katsu Chicken Curry

Crispy panko chicken with basmati rice, pickled cabbage, chilli and spring onion, served with our homemade katsu curry sauce. Not always on the menu, but when it is, it’s usually the one people goes for.

The hot chocolate everyone talks about

If you’re in Dollar, you’ve probably heard about it.

Rich, proper hot chocolate — made the way it should be. Smooth, rich, and exactly what you want.

Perfect alongside lunch, or just on its own when you’ve got an hour to yourself.
