Immerse yourself in the heart & soul of Dakota: the Grill.

Our urban-chic, open plan restaurant is famous for steak. We source our prime cuts from grass-fed UK-bred beef, supplied by Scottish family butchers. With the lightest touch, we season and grill our steaks to perfection over hot coals. Seafood lovers will discover a range of mouthwatering fish dishes, from simple grilled cod to our signature monkfish curry. Be tempted to complete your dining experience by selecting one of our deliciously divine desserts. You’ll find intensely flavoured, classically inspired dishes on our Dakota Grill restaurant menu, made from the finest seasonal produce.

Relax by the fire, socialise with friends and enjoy your favourite cocktails at Dakota Bar. Choose to sip on a classic cocktail, explore our ever-evolving list of in-house originals, indulge in our premium spirits collection, or delight in a beautifully crafted coffee.
