NEW!!! Sunday roast with chef Dean Carr

About Our Restaurant

As our name suggests, we are in The Old Fire Station, which is situated just behind the Athenaeum in The Close. As an independent restaurant, we strive to offer an exceptional experience. Our main attraction is the fabulous wood-fired oven, which we use extensively for most dishes, not just pizza, with all food prepared and cooked fresh to order. 

Open Tuesday through Saturday,  from 5 pm to 10 pm and on Saturday afternoon 11am to 3pm We are fully licensed and offer a great selection of local beers, cider, and fine wines. Our establishment is warm and welcoming, and everyone is made to feel at home. In addition, we are available for private functions and parties.

Our space has a welcoming and fresh vibe, with an old fire station theme. The walls are adorned with history and a few other fire items, including helmets, hoses, and a few sets of fire engine ladders spanning from vintage to modern. If you haven’t tried us yet, come and see what you’re missing! For regular updates, find us on Facebook.

Client Reviews

We came to The Old Fire Station for a work meal, and was pleasantly surprised by the decor and service, especially as many of us had never visited before. The food was fantastic, the service was wonderful and all in all was an amazing night, thank you so much! 🥰

We stumbled across this absolutely fantastic place on the way to Glastonbury last week. Thoroughly enjoyed the vegetarian grazing platter, best lunch we've had in ages. Very interesting building too. The owner was a real delight and so friendly too. Haven't stopped talking about the place and highly recommend.
