A small change that makes it easier to dine together at The Artea Room

We’ve recently made a few changes to the layout at The Artea Room to help us better accommodate larger groups.

Thanks to a kind donation of a new table from one of our regular customers, we can now seat more groups of up to six people dining together. This gives us greater flexibility for friends, families and small celebrations who want to sit at the same table.

Where to find The Artea Room and when we’re open ☕📍
