Dining at Kintsu

    Hidden in the heart of Colchester town centre in the shadow of a multi storey car park is the humble Grade II listed barn housing Kintsu. Ingredient led tasting menus is what we do and once you’ve stepped through our front door you could be anywhere in the world. Whether it’s a quiet table for 2, a a celebration dinner or a one off dining experience unmatched in the area we have you covered. To make an enquiry about any of our dining areas please call the restaurant or email info@kintsu.co.uk

  • Main Dining Room

    Of course, the heart of the restaurant is our main dining space. With doors that open on to our courtyard in the summer and provide plenty of natural light through the year we have 10 tables. For bookings up to 6 people this is most likely where you’ll find yourself – the space comes in to its own when the sun goes down and feels like no where else in the area.

  • Chefs Table

    Far and away our favourite table. A handcrafted slab of English Oak set in front of a beautifully upholstered banquette seat for two with a view straight in to the engine room, our main kitchen. You can watch the calm (or chaos) of the kitchen unfold right in front of you with the chefs close enough to join in the conversation if you wanted – you’ll see everything. This is no ordinary dinner either, the chefs will bring out their dishes personally and share with you not just what goes in to making them but why they’ve been made and how they found their way on to your menu.

    Available Thursday, Friday & Saturday Evenings.
