Two vouchers for the table by the window. Bought in a minute, delivered straight away, used whenever it suits.
That is how long until Christmas Day. Buying one takes about ninety seconds, which leaves you the rest of it. Nothing to print, nothing to post, and no last posting date to miss.
A jumper ends in a drawer. A candle ends in a cupboard. This ends on a Friday in January with two people who have run out of things to say about Christmas and are perfectly happy about it.
Savoiardi, mascarpone, coffee, cocoa. In that order, which is the only order anybody has ever agreed on.
A discount asks somebody to spend. A voucher hands them something that is already paid for and already decided, which is a different feeling entirely. There is no code to remember, no minimum to reach and nothing to argue about at the table.
We have been feeding the Merchant City since 2008, and the family that started it is still the family that runs it. Two generations, the same room, the same recipes argued over in the same way.
Two of them, and they do two different jobs. One is the evening you plan for. One is the Tuesday you did not.
It arrives as theirs, with your message on it, not as a receipt forwarded from your inbox. Put a name in and see how it lands.
Just a preview. You add the real name and message at checkout, and nothing you type here is sent anywhere.
Card or Apple Pay. If it is a gift, you add their name and where to send it, and nothing more than that.
Straight away, by email. Yours to forward, or theirs to open, depending on who you bought it for.
Booked or walked in, shown at the table. The expiry is printed on the voucher, so nobody finds out the hard way.
A giftFor the ones who already have everything and would rather have an evening than another candle.
A Friday already decidedBuy it in advance and the argument about where to go is over before it starts.
A thank youFor the neighbour who took the parcel in, or the friend who drove. Easier to give than cash and better received.
Both vouchers are on the same page. Card or Apple Pay, and it is in their inbox before you have closed the tab.
Vouchers are sold and delivered by our voucher partner. Full terms are shown before you pay and printed on the voucher itself.
