About NELSONS //

Chris and Marieke welcome you for lunch, dinner or drinks in our new bar Nelson’s.

When the previous owner decided to sell Café Bar Verde after lockdown, we were so sad to see one of our favourite places go, so decided to buy it ourselves.

Because it was going to be something new, it also needed a new name. We have a lovely ginger and white tom cat named Nelson, who is totally obsessed with food, so the name felt fitting.

We have new international menus, a smart new interior (including Nelson’s VIP booth, complete with his own portrait!) and a great selection of some very special wines, beers and whiskies to whet your appetite.

Reclaimed metal art

We are displaying some amazing pieces of work, made by our friend and local artist Graham (Reclamarts). Most pieces are for sale (obviously not our resident bar mascot cat sculpture!). Graham makes pieces of art from scrap metal in an amazing variety of sizes and styles. His work is now selling all over the world, so we are very proud to show his work and lend him a ‘gallery’ space. Graham also contributed to our illuminated sign, which really was the icing on the (already fabulous!) cake.

If you are interested in buying any of them please contact us for prices.
