Seasonal plates from a wood-fired oven
Olive & Ember cooks over oak in an old bakery on Mill Lane. Long-proved pizza, plates that change with the week's vegetables, and tables kept back for people who walk in.
Ways to eat with us
Dinner, weekend lunch and the chef's table
One kitchen and one oven, so the menu stays short and everything is cooked to order.
Dinner
Small plates, pizza and a dish of the day, Tuesday to Sunday from 5:00 PM.
Weekend lunch
A shorter menu at noon on Saturday and Sunday, with tables in the courtyard in summer.
The chef's table
Up to twelve guests beside the oven, with a set menu cooked in front of you.
Collection
Order pizza and sides by phone and collect them from the side door.
Gift cards
Cards in any amount, sent by email or posted with a handwritten note.
Dough class
Two hours at the bench on a Saturday morning, then lunch. Eight places.
What comes out of the oven
A few things that are on most weeks. The rest follows the season.
- Margherita

- Roast squash
- Grilled leeks
- Whole roast fish
- Flatbreads
- Charred greens

One oven, a short menu that changes every week, and a third of the room kept for people who walk in.
