Urchin Bar Overview

It’s so easy to love this casual and earthy Middle Eastern style Mediterranean eating house in Hampton. Warm colourful surrounds, friendly informal service & a relaxed atmosphere encourage you to take your meal slow and savour the delectable flavours. Enjoy Smoked duck salad with roasted autumn fruits, tender lamb, artichoke & broad bean tagine or the eye-catching Mezze share plate, which can be a meal in itself. Dine in the outdoor courtyard or get together with a group (up to 10) and reserve the upstairs ottoman room with its deep comfy couch.
