**UPDATED MARCH 2022**
All Venues Dining Guidelines
Covid is still with us so as a restaurant business we plan to continue some protocols to ensure we keep mindful of our customers, our team, our suppliers and our families health and wellbeing.
We’re delighted to confirm that we have been approved for the government’s hospitality accreditation scheme “WE’RE GOOD TO GO”. This is a self certified accreditation that supports businesses in actioning the best practice and gives consumers confidence to dine out.
CREDIT CARD DETAILS
In order to secure your booking for lunch and dinner at Contini George Street and Cannonball we will ask for your credit card details. These will be stored securely. You can cancel your booking at any time before 11am on the day of the booking (9am for breakfast bookings). If you wish to cancel after this time you will be charged £25 per cover as a cancellation fee. Please note, no amount is debited from your card on booking, it is simply held for security purposes.
FACIAL COVERINGS
Please wear a face covering, as per government guidelines, apart from when seated (including when entering, exiting and moving around).
PAYMENT
We continue to offer contact less payment or payment by PIN. When you wish to pay please stay at your table and our team will bring the bill to you. PDQ machines will be sanitised after each use. Whenever possible we would prefer you use card payment rather than cash to support our team’s health and wellbeing.
Please note when booking afternoon tea at The Scottish Cafe, full payment will be taken.
