Cocktails
As we step into our tenth year, we celebrate a decade of crafting exceptional cocktails. This menu brings together drinks that have shaped The Nuthatch over the past ten years, alongside new creations. Each cocktail is made with care, creativity and the finest ingredients. Please let us know of any dietary requirements. An optional 10% service charge is added, shared fairly amongst the team.
