Isaacs is a vibrant modern brasserie rooted in British style with a French twist. A place where seasonal produce, classic flavour, and creative flair meet to create memorable dining moments.
Open from breakfast to dinner, and every Sunday for our elevated Sunday Roast, Isaacs is a proud celebration of locally sourced ingredients and elegant simplicity.
When the sun goes down, Downstairs at The Grand takes over — a stylish speakeasy jazz bar with a full calendar of live music, craft cocktails, and cabaret charm.
