Our Story

Welcome to the Muddlers Club

Tucked away between Waring Street & Exchange Place in the historic back streets of Cathedral Quarter, The Muddlers Club has been named after the secret society that met there over 200 years ago. Street art using masonic inspired imagery and the all-seeing eye overlooking the restaurant sets the tone in the dark secretive yet warming post-industrial room designed by Oscar & Oscar.

With a menu based on meticulously prepared but simple dishes, a focused wine list and extensive, innovative cocktail list this restaurant writes its own rules.Gareth and his team hand pick the best of home grown produce daily to ensure the quality of each dish served.

The open kitchen provides a sense of theatre and allows the diner to watch as ingredients are transformed into meticulously simple dishes in front of them.
