The team behind Berrington’s and Wolf & Waffle are excited to announce they are launching a new French restaurant, Brasserie Loup, which will open its doors on Tuesday 18th May 2021.

Serving a delectable menu of classic French fare cooked to perfection, diners can expect great tasting simple dishes, hearty portions and a lively atmosphere.

Located above Wolf & Waffle on Berry Street, the 60 cover restaurant offers traditional French dishes exquisitely cooked using simple flavours and the finest season ingredients, with highlights including indulgent cheesy onion soup and Moules frites with garlic & white wine sauce.
