Booking Terms & Conditions – Cattle & Co.

These terms apply to all venues operated by Redefining Dining Co., unless otherwise stated.

  1. Reservations & Deposits

To help us minimise no-shows and give all guests the best possible experience, some bookings require a deposit or pre-authorisation.

For bookings of 8 guests or more, a £5 per person pre-authorisation will be taken. This will only be charged if the booking is not honoured or cancelled in line with our policy.

Large Bookings & Private Hire

For private hire or larger group bookings, a deposit or full prepayment may be required.

  1. Availability, minimum spend, and booking requirements may vary depending on the venue, date, and time.
  2. Bookings with an estimated spend over £500 must be paid in full in advance
  3. Payment deadlines will be clearly outlined in your confirmation email
  4. Final guest numbers and menu choices must be confirmed in advance to allow us to prepare for your visit

If you’d like a longer dining time, please request this when booking—we’ll always try to accommodate where possible.

Arrival Times

We kindly ask guests to arrive on time for their booking.

  1. Late arrival may reduce your dining time, as tables are reserved for a set period
