Welcome to Alder. Designed in partnership with award-winning firm Shim-Sutcliffe Architects, Alder’s mood and material palette reflect the elemental nature of the food prepared within. Sunken into the earth, the restaurant’s design is artfully influenced by the kitchen’s wood-burning oven and grill, with nods to the simple and functional. Featuring laid-in brick flooring, bush-hammered concrete walls and a copper bar, Alder’s oversize windows paint shadows and sunlight across our space. It is a warm and protected place to be, like just the right distance from a bonfire.
