You'll find Six tucked away on Thompson's Lane, in that quiet stretch between the city centre and the colleges where things feel a bit more real. It's the kind of place where the menu changes with what's actually good right now, not what some corporate spreadsheet says should be popular. The room itself isn't trying too hard—it's got that slightly lived-in warmth of somewhere that's been feeding the same people for years, the sort of spot where the staff know what you're after before you've decided. Go hungry and don't overthink it; this is cooking that trusts its ingredients and doesn't dress things up unnecessarily.
