Group Set Menus
Two course, three course and shared menus for tables of ten and over.
Ten or more at the table? Our group set menus mean everyone eats together, the kitchen plates the whole table at once, and you are not passing one menu round forty people.
Set menus run at every Elements restaurant. They are required for bookings of ten or more and for any function in a private space, and they are optional for smaller tables from four guests. Send us your date and numbers and our reservations team will come back with the menu options for your venue.
