The Books Tent

Ever wondered what happens in a bookshop after dark? Head over to resident bookshop, Phlox Books, and join them for the return of Reading Between the Wines.

Owner, and experienced bookseller, Aimée Madill will be teaming up with a sommelier to find the perfect wine and book combinations. A Jack Kerouac with a dry Gassac anyone?

Phlox Books is located in East London and for the past seven years has been fulfilling its mantra of "Books.Booze.Coffee." With their passion for making bookshops social spaces, their carefully curated selection of wines and books make them a much loved staple of the new generation of bookshops.

Cheers

  • All menus are designed nut-free (unless specified otherwise), but please be aware food is prepared in kitchens where nuts, gluten, and other allergens may be present.
  • Feasting Experiences can only facilitate dietary requirements as outlined on the individual chef's booking page.
  • Where alternative dishes are available, the same dish will be used for vegan and dairy-free.
  • While we aim to keep all dietary alternatives as close to the original menu dish as possible, in some circumstances, where a direct substitute is not possible, there may be changes to the entire dish.
  • Available alternative menu options must always be requested in advance via the dietaries form. Do not forget this if booking for a group, we are in a field, so alternatives are not readily available.
  • All Banquets are served sharing style, so if you have a dietary requirement, your dish will likely be served individually plated instead.
  • Long Table Banquets: vegan alternative menu available Thursday-Saturday.
    Sunday Roast vegetarian alternative menu only.
  • Woodland Banquet: vegetarian menu available for all sittings.
  • The Chef's Table: cannot accommodate any dietary requirements beyond those outlined on each chef's page.
  • Little ones can sit on parents' laps at all restaurants except for The Chef's Table. If they're in a pram please ask on arrival to be seated at the end of a table. Unless available at the point of booking, we don't have a dedicated children's menu, so if you’re planning for them to eat with you they’ll need to be booked as an additional seat.
