Chubbs Wine Bar & Kitchen

Head up to St Marychurch and you'll find Chubbs tucked away on Fore Street, doing the whole wine bar thing without any pretension. It's the sort of spot that feels like someone's actually thought about what they're doing—decent wine list, food that knows what it's about, and a room that doesn't try too hard to impress you. You're getting proper hospitality here, the kind where they remember your name on the second visit and the staff actually know their stuff. Perfect for a weeknight out or when you fancy something that feels a bit more considered than your usual.
