Accessibility & Inclusivity
We want every guest to feel welcome at Lowe’s on Carter Street, and we’ll always do our best to make your visit as relaxed and enjoyable as possible.
Our building has its quirks and space can be a little tight, but our team is here to help wherever we can. If you have particular needs—whether that’s dietary requirements, seating preferences, or a little extra support—please let us know in advance so we can be ready for you.
Above all, we believe everyone deserves to feel at home when they dine with us, and we’ll always go the extra mile to make sure you do.
Our Commitment To Sustainability
We believe great food should do good too. Every choice we make, from the ingredients on your plate to the way we run our kitchen, is shaped by one idea: care for our community and the planet.
That’s why we work with local producers such as Dunwood Butchers, Sam’s Eggs, Green Door Bakery and our local honey suppliers. Sourcing locally cuts food miles and ensures everything we serve is fresh and full of flavour.
We also focus on reducing waste. Making most of our food in house means less packaging and fewer deliveries. Careful menu planning helps minimise waste, and we recycle everything we can, from glass and cardboard to kitchen oil.
Sustainability is also about people. Each year we provide free Christmas dinners, support the local food bank, and work with the Heath Community Centre. We run cooking classes for young people too, and one former student now trains in our kitchen and competes in global competitions.
Working With Us
At Lowe’s, our team is at the heart of everything we do. We believe in creating a place where people can grow, learn and feel valued. It’s one of the reasons we have one of the lowest staff turnover rates in the industry.
We offer opportunities to develop skills, from the kitchen to the front of house, and we’re proud to see team members progress in their careers. Some have started with us in a cooking class and are now competing at an international level.
If you’re passionate about great food, great service, and being part of a supportive team, we’d love to hear from you. Please contact us here.
Investing in Skills and Experiences
We’re committed to growing not only our business but also the knowledge and expertise within it. Over the past year, we’ve invested in training that strengthens what we offer our guests and helps us stand out as a restaurant and wine bar.
WSET Level 2 Achievement
Both of our directors have recently completed the WSET Level 2 Award in Wines. This training has deepened our understanding of wine and how it pairs with food, and it’s knowledge we’re excited to bring into the restaurant. From developing wine tasting evenings for guests to sharing insights with our team, this achievement means we can deliver a more engaging, confident and memorable wine experience.
We also believe it’s important to keep investing in ourselves and our team. Alongside our wine training, we’ve recently invested in areas such as photography, videography and PR, ensuring Lowe’s is always moving forward and giving our guests the very best.
We Love Dogs!
We don’t just allow dogs — we encourage them. The front area of the restaurant is fully dog friendly, so feel free to bring your four-legged friends along. Just let us know when you book so we can reserve the right space and avoid any disappointment. In the summer months, the courtyard is also open and makes the perfect spot for you and your dog to relax together.
