Six by Nico is stepping into the world of Wonderland this summer with a new tasting menu that’s anything but ordinary. From Monday 14 July 2025, diners across the UK and Ireland can enjoy the restaurant group’s latest six-course experience, inspired by Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.
Available for six weeks only, the Mad Hatter’s menu promises a playful take on fine dining, with each dish drawing on familiar scenes and characters from the classic story. Expect edible timepieces, “Drink Me” elixirs and a few surprises that nod to flamingo croquet and tea party chaos.
Chef Nico Simeone describes it as “one of our most creative journeys yet,” aiming to bring “a sense of summer magic to the table” while reimagining classic British tea party elements.
Here’s what’s on the menu:
- We’re All Mad Here: Chicken fat doughnut with roast chicken juices
- Caterpillar Secret Garden: Barbecue hispi cabbage, smoked potato terrine, taramasalata and garden herbs, paired with Brut Cava from Cataluña
- Paint The Roses Red: Goats cheese parfait with beetroot, grilled red pepper and ancho chilli, matched with a Romanian Mușcat
- Breakfast in Disguise – Sunny Side Upside Down: Black pollock, black pudding, egg yolk jam and smoked bacon, served with a Sauvignon Blanc from Languedoc
- Off With His Head: Crisp pig head, fennel, lovage and apple & mustard mousseline, with a classic Rioja Crianza
- Jam First – Logic Later – ‘Inverted’ Tea & Toast: Burnt toast delice, summer strawberries, breakfast tea ganache and a ‘Jammy Dodger’, paired with two light Italian sparkling wines
Each course is crafted to surprise, with optional wine pairings to match the narrative. The full experience is priced at £45 per person, with drinks pairings available from £30.
The Mad Hatter’s menu runs until Sunday 24 August 2025, and is available at all Six by Nico locations including London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Belfast, Dublin, Cardiff, Oxford, Manchester, Leeds and Birmingham.
Bookings are now open at sixbynico.co.uk.
