Love this spot! An incredible wine list, with an options in all price ranges. But the food was such a surprise. Just delicious.

Not sure why a deposit was required for lunch on a Friday when the only other people there were two walk ins. Also, I forgot to check if my deposit was deducted from the bill, but I can’t check the wine prices online and either it was very expensive for the wine, or good value but they forgot to deduct the deposit, and I can’t find an email address to enquire to. Our waitress also didn’t seem to know about my booking, didn’t know much about wine, and kept trying to clear dishes away before we’d finished. There wasn’t much warmth or ambience for a winter’s day. Having said that, the food was really delicious and it was great to have a selection of more unusual or less well know wines available by the glass.

Great intimate dinning with the winemaker, worth every cents. Food is creative, delicious and in just the right size portions.

We had an exceptional time at Tannin! Great service from Siku and the food was top notch! The fact that there is a plethora of wines by the glass made it a wonderful lunch, with several different wines tasted!
