Esca Coffe Bar & Restaurant with Rooms

Here at Esca we are a local, independent family run business and are passionate (some may say obsessed!) about food, stay aways and the memories they evoke. We have been to some amazing places and the one thing that we always remember is the food and the restaurant, bar or café we ate it.

We have pulled together some of our favourite journeys and experiences to create dishes and rooms that we hope you will enjoy and want to return for. Our wine list has been designed to compliment all tastes and our dishes. We also have a unique and tasty cocktail menu.

We look forward to welcoming you to Esca.

Plates & Shakers

Welcome to Plates & Shakers — where cocktails come with plot twists, tapas tell tales, and nothing is ever quite what it seems.

Step inside and something shifts. The outside world fades. Time stretches, softens, smiles. This isn’t just a bar — it’s a little world of wonder, stitched together from old books, flickering candlelight, velvet chairs, and curious treasures collected from around the UK and beyond it’s horizon.

Here, menus are hidden inside vintage novels. Drinks arrive cloaked in smoke or crowned with petals. Tapas plates dance between Mediterranean soul and playful invention — Greek warmth, Spanish sparkle, and a whisper of chaos from the kitchen.
