BROWN CRAB RAREBIT

BROWN CRAB RAREBIT

Quickly becoming a classic at The Barley Mow in Mayfair. Our take on the classic rarebit with just a little bit of decadence thrown in, with rich crab and a punchy Montgomery cheddar. Ideal with a pint at the bar!

We were delighted to host @amykentrugs X @linwood_fabric at The Orange, welcoming local brands, interiors designers and press for a morning of design and conversation. Their new collaboration, a collection of handcrafted rugs inspired by bold colour and timeless craftsmanship, was the perfect fit for London Design Week. As a space rooted in thoughtful local design, we loved bringing London’s creative community together to showcase this project.
