With the return of beautiful weather, there are few pleasures quite like enjoying a leisurely lunch or an elegant dinner at Aubergine.

Our lunch menu changes each week, allowing Chef Harald and the team to showcase the finest seasonal ingredients through a thoughtfully curated selection of dishes.

Join us and experience Aubergine at its most relaxed and refined.

A study in yellow stone fruit. Sculpted into a delicate sphere and plated with quiet precision, the dessert explores the fruit through layers of flavour, texture and temperature. A composition that reveals itself with every spoonful.

There is something quietly beautiful about an oyster. Hidden beneath its rugged shell, delicate, luminous and shaped entirely by the sea.

Sometimes the ingredient needs very little introduction.

A house w**e should never be an afterthought.

Our sommelier, Ralph, introduces a selection of the house w**es at Aubergine, each chosen with intention. Some are distinctive expressions from remarkable producers, selected for their individuality and character. Others are wonderfully versatile, with the balance and structure to move effortlessly across many of Chef Harald’s dishes.

Because the right w**e does more than accompany a dish. It becomes part of the experience.

An invitation for a cocktail.

Meet Agent Orange. Vibrant, refined, and crafted with intention. The perfect beginning to an evening at Aubergine.

Join us for drinks, and stay for dinner.

A moment from Harald’s visit to Vietnam earlier this year.

Travel has always been a source of inspiration. Experiencing a cuisine in the place it comes from, meeting the people behind it and understanding the traditions, flavours and details that shape every plate.

The best ideas often begin far away from home and find their way back to the kitchen.

Every dish begins long before it reaches the plate.

Here, the first colour is developed on the beef short ribs, the beginning of a slow process of building depth and character. What you see is only one moment, one component, in the journey towards the finished plate.

At Aubergine, the smallest details are given time.

Today, Aubergine enters its 31st year.

More than three decades of plates served, w**es poured, conversations shared and memories made around our tables.

A restaurant is built on more than food. It is built on people, relationships, craftsmanship and the quiet dedication to doing something with care, day after day, year after year.

To every guest who has walked through our doors, every supplier who has shared in our pursuit of quality, and every member of our team, past and present, thank you for being part of Aubergine’s story.

We look back with immense gratitude and forward with the same passion that has carried us this far.

Here’s to the memories already made, and to those still to come.

Harald and Ralph. A partnership shaped by years of working side by side.

In the kitchen, Harald brings precision, creativity and a deep understanding of flavour, while Ralph, our sommelier, brings his exceptional knowledge of w**e to every pairing. With a shared appreciation for both food and w**e, the two work seamlessly together. One creates the dish, the other finds the w**e to complete it.

A partnership that has become an integral part of the Aubergine experience.
